8 weeks pregnant-abdominal pains at night, woke up with uterus bulging out and pain gone. is this normal?1st appointment this week but am bit worried
A doctor has provided 1 answer
First visit : At 8 weeks the uterus is too small to bulge out or be detectable as it is hidden behind the pubic bone. At your visit ask your doctor to examine you and see if you are further along. They can also see if something else is going on
