Update: Symptoms & Anxiety

[MomaJoni]

Hey Everyone,

I thought I would pop a new update on here before my viability scan on Friday. Today I should be 5 weeks 6 days. I am in for an early viability scan on Friday due to a history of Ectopic pregnancy. I remember with my previous pregnancy with my little boy who passed away, I was moaning because my symptoms were mild...Well...Don't moan, because now I have every symptom in the book and it's really hard not to be miserable!

Sore breasts started at around 5 weeks 2 days.

Sickness Started at around 5 weeks. This was just feeling generally unwell but has now graduated into full blown sickness 24/7.

Bloatedness started around 5 weeks 3 days.

Tiredness started around 4 weeks 6 days. I slept for the entire day on Sunday, and I have been going to bed at around 8.30pm and napping in the day where possible.

Fingers crossed everything is for the right reasons and I get to see a tiny little flickering bean on the screen on Friday. I will keep you all updated.

P.S: I am on progynova x 4 daily. 400mg Cyclogest x2 daily, Folic Acid and at 10 weeks will be adding Aspirin to my cocktail of drugs.

good luck for Friday! I think it’s probably important to highlight some people have no symptoms at all as everyone is different x

[MomaJoni in reply to Hidden]

Oh absolutely. My best friend is pregnant at the moment and she has had absolutely no symtoms. She said that if it wasnt for there being a baby on the scans, she would doubt she was pregnant at all lol

Oh the sickness and constant exhaustion of first trimester are so rough, I feel for you. I'm here to say never feel bad complaining about how bad it is, it doesn't make you, us, anyone else in that situation any less grateful to be pregnant after fertility issues. I hope you get some relief from your morning sickness soon and lots of luck for your scan. Xx

I found taking my progynova and vitamin/folic acid all together a little later in the day helped a bit with the nausea but I was the same as you and lived off ice poles until about 17 weeks. Good luck for Friday will be looking out fort our update xxx

Aww sweetheart, Im wishing you so much love and luck. Im sure you'll know i had twins and had bugger all symptoms which made my anxiety 100 times worse....however looking back, i was flipping lucky that I wasnt poorly and obviously lucky that things worked out. Symptoms vary so much and hopefully things will ease off in time....one of my friends was hospitalised with all of her pregnancies as she was so ill. Look forward to hearing some updates. Huge hugs.xxx
