7 Weeks Pregnant? Addressing Concerns After Miscarriages & Delayed Conception
QuestionIm 7 weeks pregnant finally after 17 months of trying and 4 miscarriages what im worried about is that im not actually pregnant even tho have done 4 tests all positive!Because its taken so long im thinking possibly i have ovarian cyst or something!Periods were regular until this missed one .I have had lower right twinges and had lower back pain which have now gone and went to gp for this but she just said she wasnt concerned.I have swollen breasts(not sore)and bloating even more after a meal and have had sickness but not vomiting!i have underactive thyroid and low iron and im on tablets for this my levels were ok 2 weeks ago am i just being paranoid or do i possibly have reason to worry
AnswerUnless you have had bleeding and/or cramping, I would not be worried about a miscarriage if you have tested positive four times. I would suggest making an appointment with your OB immediately to ease your mind. Given your history, you should be able to get an appointment early on without a problem. It seems as though you are exhibiting symptoms of a progressing pregnancy, that is very encouraging. It is more than understandable for you to worry because of your history, but staying positive helps tremendously also. I do hope that I have answered all of your questions, if you need any further assistance or have any other concerns, please feel free to follow up. Best of luck, God bless.
Sincerely,
Cheryl Hetherington
