Hey Sarah - I had that sore tummy thing very early on as well. It is very normal and is because all your bits are streching to get ready for carrying your bubba. ]]> Tue, 18 Jul 2006 10:01:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59422&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59422 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59368&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59368 Author: Bombshell

I have the tight tummy feeling - guess it's normal since there is a baby growing in there. But other than that I have been OK so far ]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2006 22:19:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59360&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59360 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59288&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59288 Author: katie1

I also had lots of cramps for first three months or so. I was constantly worried but it was ok.
Try not to worry - although it is easier said that done!]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2006 18:06:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59288&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59288 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59217&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59217 Author: Anna

I had bad cramps from early on... And also super-smelling-abilities.

I can vouch for the cold thing. I got the flu 2 weeks ago, the last time I got the flu was when I was 6 weeks pregnant with Andrew. And tiredness big time. I so don't know how I am going to cope with the study I have put myself in for over the next few weeks.]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2006 13:48:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59155&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59155 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59119&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59119 Author: MILF

the worst for me was the tiredness, and the extreme low immunity to every single cold going around... i caught everything around, and still do. The tight feeling in the tummy is another, also bloating lots. i like to think that every symptom is a good sign :) ]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2006 12:20:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59119&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59119 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59112&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59112 Author: Andie

I'm seconding everything the others have already said!  I felt like I was expecting the worst ever period to arrive, from when a period would have been due 'till the morning sickness kicked in at 6 weeks.  It was just my uterus stretching.  My mum didn't feel the same, but my MIL did and she's been pregnant 8 times!!]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2006 12:11:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59112&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59112 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59081&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59081 Author: mrs frantic

I had wicked cramps all the way up to...um... I think about 20 weeks then they went away, now I am getting them again... I think the early cramps are your uterus stretching...and the later ones are muscles stretching.
Cramps are pretty normal from what I hear from my midwife and others, as long as they are not so bad you cant move around and you get no bleeding with them ...
My symptoms were:
extreme triedness
nausea in morning and night
cramps
needing to pee alot (THAT hasnt changed all teh way through LOL)
UMMMM and just generally feelign bloated and period-ish really...
Sounds like you are doign fine...just relax and take it in your stride, and it's normal to be a nervous knicker checker...we ALL were like that!!!

Your tummy muscles are streching even thou there isn't much to strech them with yet. If the pain comes and goes I wouldn't worry to much but it is a constent thing maybe call your MW if you have arranged one or your DR and speak with the nurse. I had tummy pains with Andrew my whole pregnancy and have just started them again.

hang in there sarah! knicker checks are all i seemed to do til at least 12wks
i had the cramps in the tummy, like a period, also felt sick all the time, very tired and emotional.
i'm not too sure on the sore ab's thing, maybe someone else can reassure you on that one ]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2006 10:24:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59036&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59036 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59023&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59023 Author: Sarah Beth

I was wondering, what did you all feel very early on in your pregnancy. I have had some cramping, but that seems to have been replaced with a very tight tummy feeling, almost like I did a huge ab work out yesterday. It feels very odd, and I just keep thinking, is this normal? Have already done 3 knicker checks and think I am losing the plot.]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2006 09:40:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3158&PID=59023&title=early-pregnacy-symptoms#59023
