| at what point should you worry about tummy pains?

| As your feeling hot my first thought is a UTI? I would maybe call NHS Direct.
Hope you feel better soon. xx | | | | Status: Offline

| My midwife said if it hurts enough to make you stop what you are doing (also if you are feeling sick and have temp) then to call your GP/Midwife asap. I would have though by 14 weeks an ectopic pregnancy would have gotten picked up though which I think is the main reason to worry with such other symptoms, so I am guessing it is stretching. | | | | Status: Offline

| suddenly felt really weak and hot, had to come to bed and lie down. feel a bit cooler, but still get hot now and again. been to toilet twice in half hour, but then again may be just because i have just drank a lot with dinner. feel sick and keep getting pains in my lower back now too.doesnt hurt when i wee so dont think its a water infection. also got a bit of a headache, if it doesnt get better in the next few hours, and i keep going to wee, may ring nhs direct just to check. i just dont know if its something to genuinely worry about, or if its just something that will go away in the morn, but then if i ignore it and try sleep it off, will i harm my baby? its such a worry, never knwing whats right and wrong! | | | | Status: Offline

| Personally, I would call them or try A&E to see if they will give you a scan. It would be a lot better to put your mind at ease than keep worrying. | | | | Status: Offline

I think this is too much to ignore, I agree some pains etc are normal but I think you are experiencing enough that you should get it checked out.
Good luck!!
