Overcame ENDO, now 5 weeks PG - only minor symptoms???

Thanks for talking Loula, Emmy83 and Entreat!

All this is sooooooooooo strange. Went for a walk today to get mind off my abdomen and started to feel a little crampy and light headed... Then NOTHING! Not a damn bloody thing all afternoon / night…. I would rather feel ill for the entire 8 months than this rollercoaster of emotion. Just so I know… Is it possible that the embryo can die while still attached to the uterus and I wouldn’t know? Sorry for the doomsday scenarios… It all just feels too good to be true… Think I might go to my GP and ask for a HCG test? Need to know all is ok! xox

At 5 weeks you are only starting to develop the symptoms! It not nice to hope someone gets rotten morning sickness, but ... may you be nauseas ... a little bit, soon

I'm sure everything is fine. I didn't start to develop symptoms until the end of the 6th week. And the morning sickness began through week 7. Don't stress yourself out, it's not good for you or the baby. Do go and see your GP to get some reassurance.

First of all Congratulations!

I didn't get many symptoms a week ago aswell just the tender bb's, light headed and the need to eat all the time.
Then all of a sudden (yesterday) morning sickness started to appear. And I even vomited this morning! Lovely!
So I wouldn't be worried hun, im sure everything is fine and you start feeling nauseas in no time.
I know it's so hard to keep calm about things!

Arvy Girls!

Thanks for the reassurance everyone... I’m being a little pre-emptive I know... Its just that most of my group of lifelong girlfriends, not unlike myself, are still on the career ladder and not particularly 'in the know' when it comes to pregnancy! It helps to keep in touch with you guys who are sharing these precious days with me.

I went for a blood test to check my hcg levels today. Results won’t be back till tomorrow. So will check back in then. BTW, anybody seeing it necessary to stay away from their pets (ie. toxic.... blah blah or something)? Got my blood tested for those antibodies too, will let you know what the preferred levels are for that too.

ps: May I have 'just a little' morning sickness soon!

Couldn't agree more! All of my close girlfriends are probably years away from motherhood! Add the lack of symptoms, and I was one frightened bunny. I didn't really think requiring 2 breakfasts a day was a symptom. But I rather that than what a woman at work told me today... went on a bike ride with the dogs in tow... and vomited on herself! EWW!!

Every scan, I held my breath all morning until I saw that little bean, barely growing (in my mind), and the tiny flicker of a heart beat.

for your test results tomorrow. I'm sure you'll be fine!
