Cramps and back pain
10 weeks 1 day today been getting cramps in the middle of my stomach right at the bottom and lower back pain went to gp today and they’ve referred me to epu for early scan - they was reluctant to see me as I went in at 6 weeks for cramps (these cramps stopped at about 7 weeks but have since come back with a vengeance)
Anyone else feel really anxious and also like the drs completely disregard your feelings and concerns and make you feel stupid because after them being reluctant to see me my anxiety has gone through the roof as if I’m over reacting

Cramps are totally normal in the first trimester, I had them throughout the first trimester (due sept 1st so almost hitting second trimester) so I wouldn’t worry unless they are alongside bleeding. Epu are usually quick to see you, and are so lovely. Don’t panic and wishing you all luck 🤞
Thank you everything was fine, the dr assured me healthy pregnancy just something I’m going to have to grin and bare, I never suffered with any symptoms with my first so this is all new to me 🤦🏼♀️ they did also say I’m 11 weeks so a week ahead of what I thought, I have my dating scan on the 10th March which will hopefully confirm dates. As going from my last period baby was due exactly a week before my birthday 😂 x

I’m in the same boat! 10w2d and the last couple days I’ve had some rather uncomfortable cramps all across my stomach and lower back🥴 I had a scan at 9w with similar cramps and was reassured that it was most likely due to hormones, growing & stretching pains Let me know how you get on! I’ve booked a scan at the weekend to confirm things are still okay x
