It seems like my right ovary is hurting a little today. That makes me even more nervous and worried about an ectopic!! OMG my doctor is going to hate me for sure!! I am such a nervous wreck!!

[Lyz]

the first trimester is very nerve wracking! that's normal to feel those pains. Its either your ovary shedding the corpus colusm (or whatever it's called) or round ligament pains.

I'm pretty sure you can't "feel" an eptopic, at least not this early. Try not to stress. Remember, unless you are feeling really bad cramps and/or bleeding, it's just normal pregnancy stuff.

I'm having something like that too Ash... not constantly, but every once in awhile my lower right abdomen pinches or something. Maybe it's bean snuggling in?

[ashnichole2326]

Thanks girls...great to hear I am not alone!! I have enough to worry about.

[jensma]

Its normal. I worried myself to death and at that 8 week appt that was the little booger! I'm sure you're fine!

[mandyt]

Super normal... I had that too. It's just the corpus luteum, I hear you feel it from time to time all through the first trimester until the placenta is fully developed and takes over progesterone production. Then it goes away, and other discomforts take it's place. Glad to see you got a blood draw Ash, hope the results give you peace of mind!

I used to get that pain all the time during the first trimester. My doctor told me it was where I ovulated from. Totally normal, although it can make you a nervous wreck!

[ashnichole2326]

Mandy, I figured I had better take your advice on the blood tests!! You have ALWAYS told me how important progesterone is so I DEMANDED it pretty much!! I hope it's ok and if not, I hope there's time to do something.

I am super nervous about losing my baby bean.

[JessMitch]

i think we both need to stop worrying ashley!! easier said than done i know.. but what is going to happen will happen. But i think we'll both be holding our LO's in about 8 months!! can't wait to hear your numbers!!!!

[mandyt]

I know Ash, I am totally the progesterone police! It's true that MOST of the time whatever is going to happen will happen, but I do believe progesterone supplements save babies. I know there are plenty of doctors who disagree. But my mom couldn't carry to term when TTC my little bro until she started daily progesterone. And my friend started spotting bright red blood and her blood test showed low progesterone, so she demanded supplements even though they told her they wouldn't help, and to call back "when" she miscarried. She has a beautiful 6 year old right now to show for it... so I say better to know you did everything you could than always wonder! Did you get your blood work results back yet??
