8+6 & all of sudden symptoms seem to have gone

[Greencook]

I don’t even feel pregnant today. I’ve been feeling sick but not psychically sick for the past 2 weeks. The last couple days I’ve felt ‘normal’ when will the worry end. I’ve booked a private scan for next Sunday when I’ll be 10+1 but I just can’t believe I’m pregnant. I’m guessing it’s because of past trauma with previous pregnancies but I’m just so scared. I don’t know how people can wait until 12 weeks not knowing what’s going on I wish I could be one of those people that doesn’t think negatively x

This happened to me at 6 weeks my boobs stopped hurting and I stopped being sick I panicked and my clinic gave me an earlier viability scan which showed everything was ok. I started being sick again day after scan. Apparently it's completely normal for symptoms to come and go during 1st trimester. I am 9+2 and worry about everything don't think this will feel real any time soon. Try to take your mind off it x

Oh really !? I’ve not been sick yet but just feeling sick & off certain foods, one being eggs but this morning I feel like I could eat eggs so I’m like what’s wrong 😑 congratulations ❤️ Yea I think I need to just keep busy as I’ll send myself crazy before each scan xx

The food cravings are werid I made my husband go out and buy me a Macdonald's last night as I couldn't stop thinking about there fries which I ate in seconds they were soo good and I don't even like Macdonald's 🤣! Try find something that will take up a lot of your time like a new hobby or binge watch something. I am currently planning a surprise party for my step mothers birthday in September just to stop myself over thinking every twinge. I don't think the worry will ever complete go away. X

Hi Greencook! Congratulations! Please try not to worry. I know what it is like tho. You don't have any fresh bleeding, so that's the main thing. Just to say to you that I didn't have ANY symptoms with both my pregnancies, including twin pregnancy. No sickness, no nausea, nothing...just like normal self. Everyone is different. Some get their woes in early pregnancy, some get them later on. No harm to get your scan though. They are worth every penny. I was scanned monthly on my last pregnancy due to loosing one of the twins and it was great..so reassuring. Symptom spotting will only drive you crazy.

[Greencook in reply to Sandydaiz]

Thank you 😊 yes I’m not spotting or anything so I need to just try keep calm. That’s amazing about the scans per month & sorry to hear about your loss too ❤️ I think i will benefit from monthly scans too I don’t even care about the price I would want the peace of mind xx

[Sandydaiz in reply to Greencook]

Exactly. Mine were given to me by the hospital but if they weren't, I would very much have paid any price for that peace. P.S. I hear the worry doesn't end, even when the child is in their 30s!

Oh gosh 😅 haha xx

I felt exactly like you. At about 8 or 9 weeks my symptoms became really fluctuant, then from 10 weeks I’ve had virtually nothing. But everything was fine at todays 12 week scan! Apparently the placenta takes over hormone production and your symptoms start to fade and can stop abruptly. I won’t say try not to worry as I know it’s impossible!! Good luck with your scan!x

[Greencook in reply to ClaireB24]

Ahh amazing I bet that was such a relief ❤️ I can’t wait for my 12 week scan .. yes hopefully it’s that .. I can’t wait until the symptoms go to be honest it’s really hard isn’t it, thank you xxx

Congratulations to you!! 🥰 It is so so hard! And for me, the worry never went really. It just kept changing. So it is really hard to give advice.. but keep telling yourself something positive in the mirror each day. Positive affirmations did help me a little in the moments I felt it was hardest. Try enjoy the little milestones. Music, fresh air, walking, people watching, jigsaw puzzles, paint by numbers, movie nights with other half - a good book.. also helped me. A kind of busy that does not feel exhausting 🥰😇

And yes, symptoms would come and go at the start, then as others have said - your placenta takes over more and you start to feel better. Also remember not everyone has symptoms, but still go on to have a perfectly healthy pregnancy!

Wishing you all the best! And hopefully time won’t feel like it is standing still too much before your next scan! 🧡
