Blaaaaaah...I miss being blissfully ignorant.

So, I'm cramping.  Nothing excessive.  Surely nothing out of the ordinary.  It's just that I'm all hyper-aware of every little thing.  And since I'm otherwise symptom free, this just makes me all nervous.

I've been trying really hard not to be a nutcase and over-analyze every little thing, but I guess I'm a nutcase.

It's really nothing serious.  I'm not worried about it - really...but still...it's bothering me a bit.

Aw sorry hun, I had a lot of crampiness in 1st tri too, it scared the hell out of me, but your uterus is stretching and it's all ok.  Hugs!  Try to take it easy, and put your feet up, it might make you feel better.

I have been going through the same thing. Every twinge makes me nervous. How far along are you?

but it is understandable to be bothered by it.. just "try" to relax.. I have cramping too... I look for bleeding every time I go to the bathroom, lol.. We are here for you! I hate that we all have to go through this, just sucks. I miss being ignorant too, and thinking nothing could ever happen like that to me.. At least we all have each other!!!

The cramping and the fact that it is bothering you is totally normal! I had cramping in 1st tri too but it was just due to stretching and making room for LO. Make sure your drinking plenty of water and hang in there! I'm sure everything is fine!

I'm guessing right around 5 weeks, give or take a day or two.  I know it's normal, and I was completely unphased by it before.  But today...well, you know.

It's probably just gas

I think I might feel better if I had at least a little nausea or something - as ridiculous as that sounds.  I know...I've lost my mind.

 I know what you mean about the nausea. I was hoping that would help me get over some fear too. Kind of a dumb thing to wish for. 

I set up a ticker and when I put in the dates in it said I was 6w6d instead of 7w. By the u/s I should be 7w. I felt so sad after seeing the ticker. I know that is dumb. It is just a ticker but I wanted to get past 7w and hope that made me feel better.
