Feel Nothing ?!?!?

Hi,

Well we had our first scan at 6/12 weeks last Monday and we were thrilled to see the sac and the Dr and my DH saw the hearbeat. I saw nothing as I was too busy crying with relief!

I now however am waiting for my 8 week scan next Friday and I am starting to get anxious again all over. I have NO real symptoms at all, I have a yucky taste in my mouth which comes and goes and thats it! NO sore boobs, NO morning sickness, No nothing!

I am getting anxious again that the scan on Friday will show that it has stopped growing!! Why am I such a nutter, i am not enjoying this so far at all. I want to relax and am trying but I kind of wish that I was throwing up everwhere or something so I could FEEL it. Feeling nothing makes me soo nervous.

Oh yes and we have been trying to conceive for 6 years (1 x IUI and 5 IVF, 2 miscarriages) so that explains why I am a little nutty :)

I think it's part of the blanket of protection we throw over ourselves when we are LTTTC'ers. It's hard. I am so glad you saw a heartbeat, the odds are on your side now that the pregnancy will continue. Thinking of you xoxo.

Yeah, I agree with Maruschke. It is really hard to embrace pg when you have had such a difficult time just getting there. I know I voiced my fears with my FS nurse the other week b/c I have no symptoms and all she could say is that based on my blood tests, all is looking well and that all pgs are different. Wishing you all the best & I hope you can enjoy your pg soon x

I'm still not connected with this bub, to be honest.

Congrats Bronze xx
Feeling anxious makes you very normal - alot of times when we struggle with TTC or loss etc, the whole 9 months of pregnancy is a strange journey.
Don't worry about no symptoms, as Rhi said, all pgs are very different and no one really 'complains' about having a trouble free pregnancy, so all we seem to hear are the morning sickness and sore breasts and tiredness.
You're not alone. :hugs:

Congrats on your pregnamcy Bronze :hug:

FWIW I threw up so much my stomach bled and it still wasnt reassurance that something wasnt going wrong. LTTTC is hard while you are there, crappy even after you are pregnant, its just a hard road to travel regardless.

Like Maruschke said, it really is a blanket of protection. Try to stay calm and hopefully it will all sink in really soon.

I am sure everything wil be fine but I am exactly the same TTC for 5 years now I am 6 weeks and having such scared feelings that I will get to ultrasound and it's ep topic or no Cletus or no heartbeat I only there was a guarantee to know everything would be ok . I think that's only fair since it took us sooo long to get here..fingers crossed we r all ok and have th best time from here on :)
