Anyone else feel pg/then times of not feeling pg?

[angelamclamb]

Okay, so after I have m/c two before I am really obsessing. I swear from the moment I poas I started getting m/s. Now a week later, it isn't that bad. Only once or twice today for a few seconds. Last week I could have ate everything in the house, this week I feel closer to normal. I don't really feel preggers yet. The times like today with little cramping makes me think something is wrong. I do recall this happening with previous pregnancies, but wanted to hear everyone else so I can feel better about not feeling preggers yet. I am happy I don't have m/s like I did with my youngest son, that's for certain! But I want something, anything to remind me I am pregnant and doing just fine ya know?! :

I am right there with you. My deep feeling is that everything is okay but the on again off again symptoms aren't helping. I also don't want to be sick like I was with my boys but I want to feel pregnant. I will be happy when I can feel this baby squirming every day. Luckily I usually start feeling movement pretty early. I have to admit I am poking my boobs quite often to make sure they are still sore.

Ummm, I went and got a couple more dollar store tests and have taken them to 'confirm' that I am still pg. I don't feel anything at all.

I'm out of the m/s (touch wood) but the nipple tenderness and tiredness has kicked in. Last week my nipples didn't hurt, I had no problems staying up til midnight and I spent my day sat next to a bucket. Our bodies are changing so fast at the moment, everything and nothing is normal.

[debra_lea]

YES! I actually went out and bought another test yesterday, just to confirm. However, I know that if anything happened, it would still come up positive for a while. I couldn't resist seeing the lines again.

I am so so very tired, sore boobs, and just feeling gross most of the time. But I'm not leaning over the porcelian bowl like I was with my DS. I wish I could either just turn my head off, or speed up the calendar by a few weeks:-) I am anxious for my u/s next week!

I'm with you Wendi, I keep poking my sore boobs for confirmation.

lmao - I literally just poked my boobs about 2 seconds before reading this.

When I was pg with dd my symptoms came and went a lot. I would freak out every time the nausea abated, but everything turned out perfectly fine in the end!

[Fridaxsky]

I'm not the only boob poker!

This is my first so I'm not really sure what to expect, but so far I haven't had any symptoms - just the sore boobs. It's making me think the 2 tests and bloodwork were a fluke. Wouldn't it be nice to just have a neon sign on our bellies that said "You're still pregnant!"???

[sanguine_speed]

Nope, no loss of symptoms here. I had almost none with my first, and even though there was no ongoing daily confirmation of pregnancy, I would much prefer to have a pregnancy like that again than one like this. Feeling like you have the flu for several weeks is really hard. Harder, in my opinion, than wondering if there is anything wrong if you don't feel symptoms.

[go4it]

OMG, this is SO me... also after 2 losses, also in the last 6 months. My boobs hurt all Sunday and every evening after I got my bfp but the last 3 days they have been incommunicado.

I'm still only 15dpo and live in fear of af making her usual housecall... I mean utterly petrified.

I don't know if helps those w/o symptoms (hope so!) but I had a TON of sx in my last pregnancy, for weeks after the baby was gone. To me, that says "good" symptoms don't mean a good pregnancy...
(oh, I re-started temping, too, and my temps stayed up for a few days after the d&c - so quit temping, everyone who's still doing that!!!)

[beemama]

Me, too... I've had two miscarriages, I poke... look for skin pigment changes.. hope for nausea, even tho I had nausea/sore bbs for my last m/c... it's just hard in the beginning. Last time I kept retesting & felt good about the line getting darker faster... but it didn't matter, the baby stopped developing & my body carried on as if it hadn't.

I went to an OB today and they were going to have me come back in March & I told them that I was really insecure... one of my m/c was missed & I made it to 13 weeks before they did an u/s and saw it was a blighted ovum... I told them I didn't want to go through that again... they're running quants for me. I'll know a little more on Monday.

vibes for us all!!

[go4it]

GL w/the quants, Kelly!
Stick, beanies, stick!

ETA: Just poas to try to reassure myself and omg it is SOooo dark; did an opk too, for fun, and it was darker than the control line already!

[amberbella]

Yes, it's so early and I'm so nervous. AF isn't due for another 2 days and I'm so scared that it's just gonna come.

All night I had symptoms...pain and cramping, sore breasts...but today, nothing. One sharp pain near my left ovary and then nothing since. It's so stupid that the pain worries me, but so does the lack of pain.

[Ruthe]

I always feel very sick one day around 3, maybe 4 weeks, then normal until I get real morning sickness from 7 weeks on. It's one of my early signs of pregnancy.

[maylea_moon]

It's been hard for me to really know if I have "symptoms" because I have the flu so it's making everything miserable. I do frequently poke my boobs though to make sure they're still tender. I had a miscarriage in November so I think I get worried a little easier than when I was pregnant with my son.

[go4it]

Well, today was a "good pg" day... bb's hurting - yay! But my sx seem to alternate. I am hungry / peeing on the days when the bb's don't hurt, but never have all my sx at once... still, I guess it is reassuring. :-)))

How's it going for others...?

Still no nausea for me, but when I poked my bbs just now they hurt.

[go4it]

Whoo-hoo! Allow me to poke them for you - poke, poke!

I got so scared with dd2 bc they stopped hurting at 7 weeks, but then I had an u/s and she was FINE...

Go for it! Boob poking party! Everyone's invited! LMAO!

[IntuitiveJamie]

Okay, I boob poked: STILL pregnant!
But seriously I was just thinking these very same thoughts today. it is a very strange thing to know without a doubt that you are pregnant one minute, then the next, it's like, nothing. Pregnancy is def. a wierd thing!
