Pregnancy nausea - lessened at 8 weeks

[hsfi]

Hi everyone

I am currently 8+2. I had quite bad nausea from 5 weeks until Fri/Sat. The last few days the nausea has really lessened. I still get hungry every 1.5-2 hours but I have found I can eat some foods I had gone off (veg predominately). I am still very tired and boobs are a bit sore/heavy. No cramps or bleeding.

I have a private scan booked in a couple of weeks time but not sure if I should be worried that the nausea has lessened or if I should just be enjoying not feeling like I'm on a rocky boat 22 hours a day!

Thanks

Hi- can’t offer advice but I am in the exact same boat - feels very odd for the sickness to suddenly disappear- but I am holding on to the fact that my boobs are still very tender, and I am exhausted- so trying to enjoy the feeling of eating whilst it lasts!

Ah, thanks for reaching out. It feels weird doesn't it. On the one hand Im hoping the nausea comes back for peace of mind but then also hope everything is ok and it stays away! I've emailed my clinic so I'll let you know if they say anything else too. Fingers crossed for us both

Oo yes please let me know what they say! Good luck xxx

Hi

You probably aren't aware that there is a board for these type of questions, created for people experiencing pregnancy after fertility issues. I've put the link below:

healthunlocked.com/fertilit...

It means you can get advice from people who are also going through pregnancy following treatments or fertility issues. Most people on this forum are still going through treatment x

Oh sorry about this, thanks for pointing this out

I'm in exactly the same boat. 8 weeks today and the last 2-3 days have been relatively nausea free. I do get hungry, and when I'm hungry I just need to eat, it all seems fine. Funny isn't it, as much as I wanted the nausea to be gone ,now I want it back 🤣

I keep telling myself that with my first I had no symptoms whatsoever and it was fine so 🤞🤞🤞 for both of us

Yeah that's exactly the same as me. When I hungry I'm ravenous. Like at 2am this morning the hunger woke me! Keep me posted on how you get on, have you got any scans before your 12 weeks one?

[Buisquits in reply to hsfi]

I had a scan at 7 +3 and I'm considering booking one at 9 weeks just because im traveling abroad and it's so much cheaper there. But we will see. I'm trying not to worry about the disappearance of symptoms, what will be will be and there is so little we can do to change it unfortunately.

Hope you're keeping calm too ❤️

Ah that's a good idea. Youve definitely got the right attitude and I'll try and take a leaf out of your book. I did a nice meditation earlier which helped 🙂

My nausea went for a week or so and then came back! And now it seems to be every few days. Very confusing but also reassuring. I’ve had private scans at 8, 10, 16 and 18 weeks so don’t feel bad about booking them, (although my husband thinks I’m crazy) they’re what keep me sane! Wishing you lots of love and luck 💕🍀

Ah thank that, thats reassuring to know. We have a scan booked in a couple of weeks time as we have a big family party so wanted some reassurance before that. I'll try hold off booking an additional one but know the option is there if I need it. Congratulations to you for getting so far along 😃

I'm very careful with scans. It might sound horrible and I hope it doesn't offend or hurt or scare anybody but the reason I am careful about the scans is the fact that my friend, at twenty something thing weeks, had a scan on Sunday and lost the baby on Wednesday 😢 The scan only shows you a little snap shot of what's happening at the time. It may not predict anything, will not promise anything. So for me, the scan doesn't give much reassurance. What will be will be.

I think reading negative stuff about other people's experiences in pregnancy is enough to send you worry when pregnant yourself. read positive stories about people's pregnancy It's what I do and it works. If you have concerns about nausea going away speak to the midwife team they know best. My nausea is not as bad now it was awful at first I'm 11 weeks now... I'm not bleeding got no pain... So nothing to really worry about... I had no nausea with my other 2 so I know this one is fine. You have to remain positive because worrying is no good for you or the baby. I have been there before worried about everything and got me know where.. everything is fine in the end... So just remain positive enjoy being pregnant.
