I think i'm pregnant but it's too early to tell. I felt the same as this last time I was pregnant and it ended in miscarriage. Basically I feel funny "down there" but not in a painful way. Just like theres something going on. I'm worried about how I move around because I'm paranoid i'll harm the embryo if there is one in there. Is it ok just to move around like I usually do as long as I dont lift anything too heavy etc?

why is it too early to tell? I thought pregnancy tests could be done really early these days. I think you should find out asap. then you need to discuss this with your GP. if there's a specific reason why you miscarried before, there may be things you should avoid in future but realistically, you can't not move for potentially the next 9 months!

best of luck :o)

Hi, you can move around completely normally you won't harm the baby he/she is well cushioned in there!! if you've had a miscarriage you will always be over cautious about everything right up until birth but try to relax please because stress isnt good in pregnancy!! I had 2 miscarriages but then went on to have my 2 beautiful children, they always say that a miscarriage is the bodys way of dealing with a problem i.e foetel defect i know its not comfortimg but it helps to explain that its not your fault. If you are pregnant you do feel really achey (like burning almost) in your abdomen but thats normal its the hormones and the muscles changing its not always a bad sign.
Good luck and take care i have my fingers crossed for you xxx

You can get tests now that can be used 4 days before your period is due (think it's Clearblue?)

like Danni said carry on as normal. Thousands and Thousands of women go at least a month or so without knowing they're pregnant - drinking, smoking, dancing etc etc and most go on to have happy healthy babies.
Also like she said stress will do more harm so relax and wait til you can do your test :o)

I'll try and carry on as normal but like Danni said it's so hard when you've miscarried before. I just dread it happening again because last time I was so down afterwards but hopefully i'll be ok and be able to think positively this time.
