My pregnancy test has come back positive (1-2 weeks pregnant), but over the last 48 - 72 hours I have had extremely sharp abdominal pains. They have since subsided but its very tender now. I have read a lot online about stomach pains in early pregnancy - some indicating this as normal pregnancy symptoms and nothing to worry about, and others highlighting the fact this may be something more serious.
I don't have any other symptoms other than the sharp pains, and now tenderness. Any guidance would be so greatly appreciated.

Early pregnancy with severe stomach pains
Re: Early pregnancy with severe stomach pains
I would definitely speak to your doctor, mine only started as stomach pains, on one side I had no other symptoms and still didn’t until 4/5 days later. It could be normal pregnancy symptoms but it’s better to get it checked out even just to put your mind at ease.
