6 week U/S tomorrow....but symptoms fading...NERVOUS!

[AdrienneLIQ]

Hello, all....I am 6 weeks PG tomorrow and have my U/S scheduled to hopefully see a heartbeat.  Anyway....I feel that my symptoms are fading.  This morning my breasts are barely sore....I really have to squeeze them (LOL) to feel any tenderness.  I haven't had any morning sickness with only some heartburn that seems to be gone too.  I had some cramping yesterday (not horrible) but really low.  I even feel less fatigued.  I'm sooo nervous!  Anyone have symptoms come and then go like this?  Thankfully no bleeding but I get so scared everytime I go to the bathroom.  Anyway....thanks in advance for any input.

Hey :), I'm 7 weeks 4 days and my symptoms come and go too. I mean some days I don't feel pregnant at all and some I feel like I'm death warmed up but I'm so worried when my symptoms vanish for 2 days in a row like today, my next scan is not till 12 weeks which is 4th dec...seems so far away :(

[AdrienneLIQ]

Apple....we seem to be having the same kind of pregnancy...lol.  I wake up with barely there breast soreness and then poke away during the day and notice it's returned...some days worst than others.  I have had no nausea/vomitting and my hearburn is basically gone.  Some mornings before I eat breakfast I feel a little "off" but it goes away.  I too also have occassional cramping but it's fairly mild and goes away quickly.  Well....good luck to you....I have my 7 week U/S on Friday....it's always exciting and nerve wracking at the same time.  

Also, thank you everyone else for your kind words and support.  Here here to us fellow boobie pokers!  :)

Congratulations on the pg! i am 7w6d and my symptoms come and go. i find that in the mornings my symptoms are very mild. sometimes in the morning my ta-ta's hardly hurt at all, but by mid day i want to cut them off. like you, i find myself squeezing them several times a day.....its almost become a routine. ( i'm glad to know that i too am not the only one.) i've been lucky on the nausea as i have had none. but i do have occaisional cramping.

So happy to hear about your u/s results.  It is so incredible seeing that little heartbeat for the first time isn't it.  My DH and I cried and cried the first time we saw our son's heart beating away.  I am just so very very happy for you!!

I had to laugh about poking your boobs in a meeting.  I am actually surprised I was never arrested for indicent exposure...I could never leave them alone...lol.  Always poking to make sure they were still tender.

Congratulations and I wish you a healthy and non eventful remainder of your pregnancy!!

Glad to hear everything is okay.  It must have been so great to hear that heartbeat!!  
I'm so excited for you!!

[rdh1981]

What great news!!! I am sure your heart feels full of love and great relief!!!!!!!

Ha Ha, I love that you openly admit to poking at your boobies.......well um because we have all been there and done that! (wink)

The truth is you are going to do all sort of crazy things for the next 9 months, so sit back relax enjoy the ride and make sure you have a great sense of humor!

I look forward to hearing more about your pregnancy!

Congrats on the early h/b!  glad everything is going well for you.

[melimeli]

I have been checking in all day to see how it went sooo glad it you have a little one stuck in your belly hahah  congrats mama

[AdrienneLIQ]

P.S.   On a lighter note.....this morning I was in a long and boring meeting (luckily with only other women) when I noticed that I was feeling my breasts for tenderness.  LMAO!  I've got to keep mindful of those things....and I suggest all of you think twice before feeling yours in a meeting!  Just my little bit of advice for the day....  :)  

[AdrienneLIQ]

Hi, everyone!  Well....just got home after an amazing experience at the MD office.  I got to see my little heartbeat!  It was so surreal....seeing a little heart beating inside me that wasn't mine.  I'm so grateful....plus my levels are are zooming up so all is good so far.  I'll keep praying though and praying for all of you too!  Thank you so much for your well wishes and kind words....you are an awesome group of women that I'm so grateful to have found!  

Have a great weekend everyone!

[waitn838]

please post and let us know how it went...symptoms are very hard to judge preg by...as most ladies have said the symptoms come and go...some days are intense and others are easy

hope everything is well

[Ecologic]

If it makes you feel better: I had basically no symptoms at all at the beginning of my pregnancy, except for some acne. A little bit of morning sickness but only after week 13 I think! Good luck!!

[spade22]

Its very normal for symptoms to vary in intensity during pregnancy.  Unless you have had bad cramping or are bleeding, what you describe is nothing to worry about.

Best of luck at your ultrasound.  By the way, 6 weeks gestation is sometimes a little to early to see a heartbeat.

[pertykitty]

my symptoms would always come and go early in pg, id poke at my boobs hard to see if they were still hurting.  id panic if i didnt feel crampy or if i did.  its very normal.  when you go for your u/s tomorrow hopefully you can relax and enjoy this.  congrats!!! and i see you still have the big eye pic lol

[AdrienneLIQ]

Thanks all....yes....I panicked this morning....but since then I've had some tenderness return....and a little heartburn....it's CRAZY what we wish for, huh?  Anyway.....I thank you all for your kind words and support and hopfully all will go well tomorrow...I will definitely keep you up to date.  Gosh....I can't wait until this first trmester (the scary trimester) is over....after that....hopefully I will be able to enjoy my pregnancy more.  Afterall....I've waited 40 years for this experience!  Thanks again....this forum is so great!  

[adgal]

Symptoms (or lack of them) are not in anyway an indicator of whether or not a pregnancy is viable.  They do tend to come and go, even day to day.  Some women experience lots of them, others not any at all.  Even with the same women, symptoms can vary from pregnancy to pregnancy. I know how nerve racking this is...first trimester is always so scary.  I hope tomorrow's u/s puts all your fears to rest...seeing that heartbeat for the first time is such an amazing experience.  Don't forget to update us and I wish you all the best.

Try not to worry too much.  I had symptoms come and go throughout the first trimester (which also made me worry) and I also had off and on cramping (like menstrual cramps).  The cramping is probably your uterus stretching.  I am now 19 weeks and things are fine (just had my anatomy scan yesterday), so the waxing and waning symptoms do not necessarily mean anything bad.  Good luck with the ultrasound tomorrow - I am sure things will turn out fine.  Keep us posted

[mjmom69]

I'm sorry you have to worry. I feel that way too sometimes. My bb are still sore but the severity changes from day to day. I'm not feeling the cramping as much as before, maybe only every other day or so and only for a short time. I'm still bloated though. I'm not nauseaus yet either which is worrisome. I'm a few days behind you but they do say everyone is different and some people can even miss the signs so maybe yours are just subsiding. I do the same thing every single time I go to the restroom! I hope everything is ok. Let us know what you find out tomorrow and good luck.

[waitn838]

my symptoms were strong some days and not so strong others...once i hit 6 weeks i was nauseas every day until about 13 weeks....everybody is different with their preg and i wouldnt worry until you know you have something to worry about

sorry you are feeling this way....i hope you see the little heart flickering away

[Kricket212]

I am sorry you are going thru this & pray everything is ok.  Since you asked I will be honest & say I did have a m/c at 6 weeks with symptoms gone.

Although everybody has different expericences when pregnant.  Please think POSITIVE!!!!  You have to keep fighting & beleive it's there!!!!!!!
