A Little Nervous
So, I'm April. Hi. I'm 10 weeks pregnant, and having pretty bad cramps. I'm not having any spotting or bleeding or any symptoms of any kind of UTI or bladder infection, so I called the on-call doctor today to find out what he thought. I have what's called an "irritable uterus" where I have Braxton Hicks contractions for much of my pregnancy, but the doctor said that I wouldn't start with that until atleast week 16 of my pregnancy, so I'm supposed to go in on monday or tuesday for an ultrasound to make sure my pregnancy isn't ectopic. I was already worried about having cramps, but now I'm even more nervous. I never even thought of the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy. My husband is always telling me that I'm making "April mountains" out of molehills, and I really hope that this is the case here. I hope that I'm just overly nervous about a small amount of cramps and it turns out to be nothing. It's not very often that I HOPE that my husband is right, but this time I wouldn't begrudge him his victory.

I hope Jake is right too!! You'll be in our prayers and let us know what the doctor says this week.
will do. :) i'm going to try to get in for an u/s tomorrow.
well, i had my ultrasound today. everything looks good as far as the nurse could tell- but i didn't get to see the doctor. i got to get pics of the baby, though- it was kicking like crazy in there! oh, and i'm 11 weeks along, not 10 like i thought. closer to the second trimester and to finding out the sex of the baby! all in all, it was great.
that's great news!! i can't wait to find out what you're having. love ya!!
