My 1st u/s wasn't supposed to be until my July 2nd appt., but I finally called because of my cramping. I've just been having horrible cramping from pretty much the beginning. I know my ute has been used and abused the past 3 years, but it just plain hurts so bad. The cramps have gotten worse the past two weeks and then this week (TMI) I've had awful diarrhea with them. Like I was in the bathroom for 3 hours on Friday and 5 hours yesterday (yes FIVE hours). On the bright side, I read my new Odd Thomas book in one day, but on the down side, I'm really worried it's not just a stomach bug. It's been coming and going with the cramping and they feel like really bad period cramps. My stomach is touchy to begin with and has always been sensitive, so I'm trying to convince myself it's just a stomach bug that is making it seem like AF cramping, but I'm worried. DH is taking a 1/2 day to watch the kids so can't go with. And it's early in the morning and an hr from home so I really don't want to wake them up early just to all go together, especially since it's not a routine u/s.
Anyhow, just venting I guess. The appt is at 9:15 so cross your fingers for me and the little one. I'm 7 weeks 3 days today so they should be able to see plenty to let us know if it's a normal pg at least.

I hope your u/s goes well.
My only symptom during first tri was horrible period like cramping. Like evey time I wiped I was expecting to see blood. It lasted most of first tri for me. It doesn't always mean something is wrong!

Sending good thoughts your way, lady! Been thinking about you. Hopefully they can give you some answers, and hopefully you can stop cramping and start eating! Hugs!
Wishing you all the best! I had cramping and diarrhea during my first tri. Everyone complained about constipation but that wasn't the case until second tri for me.
