Ok so maybe I should be thankful I am not puking all day. BUT the thing is I feel great! just tired... but I don't feel ill and my mum keeps asking me if my boobs hurt and I say no and she looks at me very strangely like its not right..... had a Dating scan on Wed heartbeat was 170bpm (isn't that too fast?? the hubby nearly had a heart attack!)
I feel like there is something wrong as I dont feel sick or have sore boobs... has anyone else been like this?
Lots of people don't have many symptoms in the beginning, count yourself as lucky! I didn't get sore boobs with this pregnancy until midway through the second tri and I had no morning sickness. Your bub's heart rate sounds great to me! Their hearts beat at a MUCH faster rate than ours, especially early on.
I would take seeing a healthy bub in your scan as a very good sign that all is well :)
Thanks Trish :)
Very good to hear!... I think its also as we were trying for 8 months and did rounds of clomid that it would be nice to feel some symptoms just to make it all real you know?
Fingers crossed it all stays good!
Hey, I am just over 8 weeks and barely having any symtoms myself. The sore boobs come & go, but I was expecting morning sickness after what I went through with my DD, so far its a no show. Seeing as you have seen a healthy bubba on the ultrasound, you dont have anything to worry about. As for the heart rate, if there was a problem the sonagrapher would have let you know. All the best!!
You have an awesome child in there that is being kind to you - I am jealous!
Quite a few girls in our Belly Buddies (Jan16th-31st) group aren't having symptoms, like Gypsy who just posted. So don't stress, get lots of rest and focus on keeping it that way!
i never threw up.. boobs... well i didnt pay much attention so they mustnt have got sore either. 170 is a GREAT heart beat! nice and strong. DD's was 176 at my first scan. Shes a clomid bub too!!!
I had nothing at all with my DS.. No sickness, no sore boobs.. Nothing... I am now just over 9 weeks pregnant like you and while I did have some morning sickness for a few weeks it seems to have settled down in the past few days.. I also dont have sore boobs or anything really apart from tiredness. I think you are one of the lucky ones.
And the heartrate was perfectly normal :) I had a scan at 7 weeks 5 days and the heartrate was 166bpm! :)
Hi
Im 9wks today and im fine too :) this is my 3rd preg and with both my other 2 i had the "normal" morning sickness and tender boobs etc but nothing this time other then the being tired thing.
Enjoy it sweety :)
and oh morning sickness doesnt always happen at the beginning so pray you stay this well :)
You are just very LUCKY!!! I'm sure things will start happening later on that will prob annoy you enough...so enjoy this. Bubs was all good on the scan so don't stress.
I myself am throwing up day & night!!! after yesterday I don't think I'll ever eat another pancake again LOL.
Awwwww you girls are so lovely! :grouphug:
Its nice to have some reassurance as I was a bit worried, and also great to know im not alone!
ohhh Erin... thats really horrible but very funny! I hope you feel better soon
love to all x
Whats right with you? LOL
I never got sore boobs - but threw up like a trooper after a 3 week bender. I have HG though so my MS starts way earlier than most. My sister is the exact opposite - never gets MS. Darn it!
Every pg is different and everyone copes with it differently. Lack of symptoms is not lack of baby. Looking forward to reading about your happy and healthy pg.
I have never thrown up in two pgs. I did feel seedy with the second one though.
There's nothing wrong with you at all. You're just a lucky ducky. We do exist!
Things will get fun later when you're the size of Namibia! (Ahem....... like me).
Be careful what you 'wish for'...:lol:...I was pretty much the same, I had been trying to conceive for 3 years before getting the :bfp: with DS, at first I didn't feel it was real and I was worried something was wrong, cause I felt so normal. I didn't have any symptoms UNTIL WEEK 10...from then I had arvo sickness every day from 2pm pretty much until it subsided about week 32, where I got bad heartburn and then finally the arvo sickness returned week 36 (with the heartburn too...thankfully DS was born at just over 37weeks, eeek!). I found it hard to complain after I got the arvo sickness cause i felt like I'd willed it onto myself, LOL! So you never know, you may still be lucky/unlucky (depending how you want to look at it) soon.
Hope you have a happy and healty pregnancy though. Good luck.
Hi girls! I'm going to go a little bit off topic here but I hope you don't mind!
I'm 8 weeks (I think) this week, I notice that quite a few of you have all been getting dating scans done and your bub's heartbeat's already! My doc is not giving me anything like that, in fact she only confirmed I'm 7 weeks in last week, and the week before she said I was only 2 weeks! I knew when she said 2 weeks it was wrong, as I was 2-3 weeks overdue for my girly time, so I had to be at least 5-6 weeks. But she's not offered me any dating scan at all, and says I probably won't get one until about 20 weeks!! Are the dating scans something that comes with private health care? Or are they supposed to be offered as standard practise? I'm not getting any info at all from my doc, not even when I should be coming back for my next checkup, so anything you can provide will be helpful!
Phynna - Dating scans aren't usually standard, they are usually requested when a woman doesn't know her LMP (last menstrual period date). If you know your LMP and have regular cycles, you shouldn't need a dating scan and your EDD is pretty simple to work out. You can work out your own EDD here: https://www.bellybelly.com.au/pregna...ate-calculator
I only had a dating scan with my third pregnancy because I was having irregular cycles and it was difficult to work out my EDD. With DS2 my first scan was at 20 weeks which is pretty standard in public hospitals these days.
HTH :)
Your Doc sounds like my Doc phynna!. She never offered a scan for me either. A lot of the girls on here do tend to have the dating scan, I know that I had to ask for a referal to be made after I went and saw the Dr the first time( I just picked it up from the front desk) For me It was purely peace of mind as I too had no Morning sickness whatsoever and needed that little bit of confirmation that there was really something there!. (whatever gets you through)
my dr requested dating scan as i just come off the pill and she didnt know if she should take it from sugar pill af or withdrawal af!!
Ah but see that's the thing, i DONT know when my last period was. I've never kept a menstrual diary, EVER, and I've always been quite irregular, sometimes down to only 3 times a year! I just work on once I've been absolutely exhausted for a week, I'm due the next week. Or remember, okay I had it somewhere near the end of the month last time...
And the doc never asked when I actually had my last period. Or if I am on any medication, which I am, anti-depressants, but I'm so stressed out trying to get answers out of her about bubs the 2 times I've been there, that I forget to mention it. I'm so over this. It's my first time, and while its awesome, fantastic, over-the-moon news, I'm terrified! And she's not offering any help or info, or anything! I'm looking for another doc, even though that means an hour travel away.
I would definitely request a dating scan if you don't know your LMP. I can't believe your Dr didn't talk about that!
Yay!!!! So much happier today!
Went all the way to Ballarat, to see my old doc there, he put me straight in to the ultrasound and within an hour I was seeing my lil embryo on the screen!!!!!! I'm now officially 6 weeks and 3 days preggo, and due on 8th Feb!!!!! And when the official report comes back I'm taking it to St Arnaud's Dr Vesna and telling her exactly how unhappy I am with the misinformation she's been giving me.
So so good to know the REAL story!!!!!!!
Hi I am neary 8 weeks pregnant and I also had clomid to help conceive.
But also like yourself I have have no morning sickness, just the tiredness! I was getting a little concenrned and I had about 4 hcg tests a few days apart and they were going up well, i mentioned to OB about no MS and she said that its as normal to not have it as it is to have MS. I had an ealry scan at 7 weeks and there was a heartbeat and the measurements matched the dates, I just think we are lucky to not have the MS. Hears hoping for us both keep positive and im sure all will be fine :crossfingers:
Good luck xx
