intro - and some advice needed.
I am another regular poster in disguise. I have a lot of family on the boards that don't know yet that I am pregnant - but I will come out as soon as I can!
I got my BFP on monday. This sat. I will be 5 weeks. My last pregnancy ended in a misscariage so of course I am nervous.
I have been feeling crampy on and off - but other than that I have NO symptoms. No sore boobs, no breathlessness (which I had my last 2 pregnancies), no insomnia, etc...
I am trying not to worry about it - but how can I not worry?? I do have another DC and I remember feeling symptoms early on then. Did anyone else not feel symptoms this early?
I am supposed to see my Dr. in 2 weeks - but I would be more comfortable getting blood work done earlier on (Can they do it earlier on?) So I know I am on the right track.
Any thoughts or advice for me??

Re: intro - and some advice needed.
Congratulations! You can begin bloodwork as soon as you get your BFP. Talk to your doctor about it. They shouldn't mind doing it, but you would need to go at least 2x to make sure the numbers are rising as they are supposed to be. Also, most women do not get symptoms until about 6 weeks. Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations!! Mikeswife is right. Call your doc about getting blood done. In the beginning, I went on a Tues and a Thurs to make sure the numbers increased approriately. Also, remember that no pregnancy is the same, so it doesn't matter what happened the last two times. I also had a m/c so I know your fear... but just think positive and be healthy- that's all you have control over! I never had symptoms either. I am 20 Weeks now and the only real symptom I have is swollen feet and ankles!! THINK POSITIVE!!

Congrats
I hear every single pregnancy can be different even if its the same woman. I have absolutely no symptoms at all and still really don't and I'm 27w along. No m/s, soreness, nothing...
Good Luck
