From one LTTC'er to another, I totally understand your concerns. It's so hard to embrace the pg and trust your body to do its thing.

But let me reassure you that yes, absolutely, it's normal for symptoms to come and go. I felt fine for a few weeks, hungry and a bit tired but no MS, no stretchy cramps, nothing. I can clearly remember at 6-7 weeks my husband saying - "hey, maybe you won't get sick at all!" - and then bam, hello insane nausea.

Some days I felt hideous, others fine. It was always just when I was feeling better that something new would hit.

It starts to feel more real after the first few scans and bump starts to make an appearance. The first tri is the hardest - I looked at my positive tests about a million times (yes, I kept them!) to remind myself that yep, I was in fact up the duff finally. That actually helped a lot.

Take each day as it comes and look after yourself. Congrats again
