I sometimes forgot I was pregnant in those early weeks. To me l, the symptoms you described sounded how I felt too. I ended up getting lots of m/s both times, which was reassuring (if not a little annoying, but I kept reminding myself that it was a good sign). As others have said, your journey to your BFP so doesn't end when you finally get it. I don't feel like it ends even when your baby is in your arms; even now, with a toddler and an accidental pregnancy, I still feel the hurts and old twinges of the time we spent trying for DD One day at a time was the best I could do.
Myturn you sound exactly like me in the first trimester. Actually it has only been this past week where I have past 16 weeks (my mum lost a perfectly healthy baby at 16 weeks do it kept playing on my mind) and a few people have commented in my teeny bump. My symptoms definately came and went in the beginning until they ramped up so much that I decided to panic about what all the vomiting would do. Such a scary time. Lots of people were patronizing if I admired I was scared and in the end I just kept quiet but the truth is I haven't even bought a thing just incase something goes wrong. I did go to the baby expo this weekend though so confidence must be gaining!
The point of my ramble.... Yep symptoms come and go and feeling crazy and scared makes you the perfect ltttc'er. Wishing you a very boring and healthy pregnancy. Xxx
Yep, I'm sure it's all completely normal! At least that's what I keep trying to convince myself of as well
There is absolutely no reason to think that anything could possibly be wrong, and yet the fear of a 'missed miscarriage' plagues me... Soon we will be out of this limbo of a first trimester, and watching our bellies swell with baby, feeling those first flutters of movement
my turn I felt symptoms at 4 weeks ( made me do a poas I felt so pregnant), then for the next 2 weeks NOTHING, I was petrified like you, ms started at around 6 weeks i think but only every second day or so and gone by 9 weeks. I know exactly how you feel, I just wanted to go into a coma for the first 12 weeks. Its so hard, it gets better but I still have moments when I feel like a pregnancy 'fraud'.
One day at a time was the best I could do.
