Morning sickness

I'm about 8 weeks pregnant with twins. Had 2 scans and all looks fine. But I am just so anxious as I have had 5 miscarriages previously.I keep thinking my morning sickness isn't as bad as it was and are my hormone levels dropping.

What's everyone else experience with morning sickness at this stage? Can it vary from day to day?

Thanks, I'll take a look. I don't have a midwife yet, only 8 weeks. Not had booking appointment yet.

Congrats lovely. Everyone's different but for me symptoms definitely came and went multiple times. I know how nerve-wracking it is, but unless you have other signs try to stay positive xxx

Thanks, it's really hard after so much loss to not over analyse. I know it can vary depending on sleep and what you eat etc.. Maybe I'm just managing it better.

Hiya, I’m 13 weeks and nausea is still bad but definitely worse sone days more than others. I would say see how it is tomorrow and I’m sure it’ll be back with vengeance.

You can always book another private scan if it will settle your nerves. I had so many with our last baby xx

I would say it’s perfectly normal to overanalyse after a loss. I’m currently 25 weeks and did exactly the same as you, even went so far as to do extra pregnancy tests and booking in for private scans just in case it was a MMC.

I can only relax now because I feel his kicks.

Like a lot of others have said, pregnancy symptoms come and go. In my case I had nausea and sore boobs for 2-3 weeks and then nothing, apart from exhaustion from all the drugs (I was on them till 12 weeks). I eventually decided to look at the positive and figured perhaps the symptoms aren’t as severe because this one worked.

Thanks, that's interesting that your symptoms went after a few weeks. Everything you read says its a bad sign and I can't get that out of my head. With everything on this stressful journey it can probably mean several different things and the only way to be sure is a scan! Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy

Hello,

I am hoping to reassure you as I was pregnant with twins in 2021 after my transfer and I had no morning sickness whatsoever. I had OHSS but nothing in terms of pregnancy symptoms. I remember asking my doctor about it and she said that it’s very common not to have symptoms and as I was on steroid medication, that may also suppress any symptoms I was likely to have.

I also had a silent miscarriage in 2020 and I had so many symptoms of pregnancy. So I really think every pregnancy is unique, symptoms really don’t mean much and it won’t tell you much about your pregnancy.

I welcome two perfectly healthy babies in 2022. Best of luck to you and I hope everything goes smoothly for you xx
