Pregnancy worries!

[foodluva]

Hi, I am 40 years old and I am 8 weeks and 4 days pregnant (my first pregnancy). The only symptom I have had to date is sore breasts. Other than that I feel well.

I am extremely anxious about the fact that some days my breasts are excruciatingly sore and some days they are hardly sore at all. My symptoms disappeared last week and as a result I had a transvaginal ultrasound scan last week at 7 weeks 5 days and all was well - heartbeat detected. For the last couple of days my breasts have not been very sore and I am panicking that this means something bad - despite the fact that this has happened before and all was good with the scan. My home pregnancy tests are still coming up positive. Is it normal for sore breasts to come and go?

Regards

that's not true. The loss of a child or the expectation of a child (whether through miscarriage or bereavement) affects everyone differently. Your feelings are valid!
