Deja vu - loss of symptoms

[Sprinkles86]

So I’m 17dp5dt, lovely BFP 6 days ago.... I have had very few symptoms up to now, the only things I had were tiredness and then sore boobs at bedtime and in the mornings.

I noticed yesterday they weren’t sore any more and told myself not to worry, they may be again when I woke up. This morning they are completely back to normal, they don’t feel full or sore in the slightest and I’m nowhere near as tired.

This has happened with each miscarriage I’ve had so although I’ve not had any bleeding I’m sat here waiting for it to happen and I just feel so sad. I know I sound like a nutcase but I guess you just know your own body don’t you?

Xxxxx

Try not to panic, I didn't have any symptoms until about 6 weeks. It's so hard when you have had losses before but looking at the positives no bleeding and no cramps etc. Big hugs xxx

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Hidden]

Thanks button that is reassuring. I am on prednisolone for high NK Cells and I’ve heard they can mask a lot of pregnancy symptoms (the chemist even asked if I had been given them because of nausea!) it’s just the sudden change in other symptoms... puts you on edge doesn’t it. I’ve written down some positive affirmations to see if they can help how I am feeling xxx

[Hidden in reply to Sprinkles86]

It's such a worrying time, I am 28weeks tomorrow and still worry about everything (think that's how it is sadly for us ladies) xx

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Hidden]

Yes I think I’ll always be a worrier when it comes to pregnancy, oh to be naive to it all again! Xxx

[Amanda86]

Hey Sprinkles,

I understand how scary it is! I had the same and was also worried. My symptoms have come and gone from the very start, at 7.5 weeks that's when the sickness hit and it's the only symptom that I've really got now to be honest. It does make me feel very drained though!

I googled constantly and have read that they'll come and go throughout pregnancy.

Try to take each day as it comes, you might like me just get hit with the symptoms one day so enjoy feeling ok just now. As long as you've no cramping or bleeding then try stay positive 😘 Xxx

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Amanda86]

Thanks Amanda that’s so lovely I’m sat here welling up so I guess the hormones must be doing something 😂 I’m practising some positive affirmations and they are helping me to calm down a bit. Hope your sickness eases off soon for you 😘 xxx

[Amanda86 in reply to Sprinkles86]

Oh yes that's the hormones, I'm not someone who cries much but now I cry at the most stupid things. A song with nice lyrics for example 😂😂

It's very strange because I just thought with pregnancy I'd feel different and know yeah that's how it must feel to be pregnant! I can honestly say that if I didn't know I was pregnant, there is no symptom I've had that would have made me think I was pregnant. Even with my sickness because I don't have nausea I wouldn't have linked it to pregnancy. I think how we imagine we should or would feel and how we end up feeling can be completely different.

It's such a tough journey and that's why now I try my best just to take each day as it comes and I always remind myself what will be will be, I can't control anything that happens so being as calm and as positive as possible it's all I can do really. That's what I try to remind myself anyway lol xxx

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Amanda86]

It is so tough to even get to this point, I know I am fortunate to even get this far! I’ve had a word with myself and thought about what you said there, that what will be will be, I can’t change it. One day at a time. I have an appointment at the miscarriage clinic next Thursday so will just focus on that for now xxxx

[Amanda86 in reply to Sprinkles86]

Good luck at your appointment on Thursday xxx

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Amanda86]

Thanks lovely will keep you updated xxx

[Hidden]

Try not to worry too much although I know that’s impossible!

I had hardly any symptoms both BFP and the first was a miscarriage so when I got my second BFP I was so scared not having symptoms and even less in a way coz my boobs didn’t hurt at all the time. Some of us are just lucky even though when we’ve been through IVF we would rather have symptoms.

I’m nearly 28 weeks and have not had many pregnancy symptoms at all and feel pretty normal xx

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Hidden]

Ah that’s reassuring to hear, you’re right we want to see and feel every symptom don’t we?! Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly for you xxxx

It is, crazy what pregnancy does to us after losses. Iv wanted every symptom in the book and it's not happening the, way I would like. My left boob is huge my right boob is normal they are tender when I squeeze them but nothing like they were. Iv vomited once the other night 8 times and iv had a headache since Friday in my left side and, my gums and tongue are killing. Never symptoms iv had before but read they're linked to pregnancy and hormones. Also im normally a, really emotional person when I'm not pregnant this time I just am quite stable with my emotions unless someone gets my back up then I shout tell them what I think and leave them to it. Not normally me if I didn't have this headache and sore mouth I'd feel normal. Every pregnancy is different remember that hun I'm just starting to get that in my head. Try not to worry. Lots of love big hugs 💗🤗😘

[Sprinkles86 in reply to AllWeNeedIsluv]

Aw thanks lovely I know I need to just try and relax a bit... one day at a time...I read your update just now, what are the next steps for you? Xxx

[AllWeNeedIsluv in reply to Sprinkles86]

I just, have to wait it out till next Monday and see if bubus grown enough and there is a heart beat xxx

[Sprinkles86 in reply to AllWeNeedIsluv]

You must be so worried. I have got everything crossed for you, keep us updated xxxxx

[AllWeNeedIsluv in reply to Sprinkles86]

I am hun. Sick of losses it's stressful. Thank you. Hopefully things will work out. You try rest hun and don't over think everything 💗💗🤗😘

[Sprinkles86 in reply to AllWeNeedIsluv]

Yes definitely stressful! I’m a little more chilled tonight, there is nothing I can do now. If it is going to work, it will work. If it is going to come away, it will come away xxx

[AllWeNeedIsluv in reply to Sprinkles86]

It's true what will be will be. Good luck hun 💗🤗😘

Keep reassuring yourself that the steroids are supporting u. It's so hard not to worry but u have ur appointment next week to focus on so take some comfort in that. If ur worried u could take another test? I'm going to keep a few in the house I think. X

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Nat6]

Yes I’ve got a couple more first response and another clear blue digital in which I might use tomorrow morning - it will be a week on from OTD so hopefully should have moved to 3+... I have to admit I’ve done another two first response since OTD (last one was Monday) and the lines are stronger each time which is good, just scared to see a weaker result if I test again now/tomorrow xxxx

[Nat6 in reply to Sprinkles86]

Maybe leave it until the weekend & do it when ur husband is around? X

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Nat6]

Yes I think I will, if I do it tomorrow and still get 2-3 it will probably make me feel worse xxx

[Nat6 in reply to Sprinkles86]

Yep give yourself manageable time lines to aim for & when u have ur husband around for support. Always here for a chat x

[Hollibob]

Have you had any thoughts on speaking with gp, clinic, EPU about having a blood test done to check your hormone levels?

You could say with your history it’s causing you awful stress and that wouldn’t be a lie

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Hollibob]

That’s a good idea, I will try and ring them tomorrow and see if I can get bloods done. My rational mind knows I shouldn’t get so worked up and each pregnancy is different etc.... but then that little voice in your head chirps up with negatives.... arrrghhh xxx

[Tugsgirl]

I thought I knew my own body but turns out I don’t. I hope you’re wrong and that you’re ok xx

[Sprinkles86 in reply to Tugsgirl]

Thanks lovely it’s just so hard after previous losses isn’t it xxx

[Tugsgirl in reply to Sprinkles86]

It is.. Wishing you all the best with this one xx
