Today I am exactly 4 weeks pregnant. I found out 2 days ago. :) However, I am getting worried. This is my 7th day of having TERRIBLE menstrual like cramps. I thought for sure I was going to get my period because of it. When I used to get menstrual cramps, I could take 2 ibuprofen and that would give me complete relief. These cramps are coming and going a lot throughout the day, and they mainly (not always) start when my bladder starts to fill up. Which is a lot lately! And the cramps stick around for like 15-30 minutes afterwards and it is brutal! I have been sleeping awful the last 7 nights because I am constantly waking up with these cramps. Last night, woke up 7 times! What is worse, is that before I knew, I was taking 800 mg of ibuprofen, and I was STILL waking up with bad cramps. It seems like nothing is helping, and that is what is really bothering me! I went to urgent care yesterday and my cervix is closed, and my hcg levels are 231 so the doctor told me that was good. I had a slight elevated temperature of 99.6. Not sure why. I was tested for a UTI which is what they suspected it might be. It wasn't. So while that made me feel better, these cramps are making me very worried that something bad may be coming. Back in May I had a very early miscarriage at 4.5 weeks. Still hard. So my mind is naturally racing, wondering what is going on. I know some cramping is normal, but this seems over the top. Please, if you have any advice, I would greatly appreciate it. I go into my doctor tomorrow to get hcg levels checked again. But still would love advice from women/mom's. :)

I'm sorry you're feeling bad :-( kmfx that your ok! I know that a little bit of mild cramping is normal due to streching of the uterus gearing up to house you lil' one but the way you're taking like its pretty intence :-/. I sure hope that it's normal and everything is ok. I suffered 3 back to back losses this yr and I found out I am pregnant again Nov 15th I'm scared to death of another mc but just remember no matter what happens it is out of our control sweety. Try to keep your head up and never give up hope for your rainbow baby :)

I am so sorry to hear about your losses. It's very hard, and so naturally when you become pregnant again, it's very scary because you just don't know what to expect. I will keep you in my prayers with your current pregnancy. Thank you for your kind words of encouragement, I appreciate them. :)
