Confessions ...

It has been very difficult for me to relax thus far. DH is super excited, talks to my belly, is making plans... Me, on the other hand, I can't relax, I can't enjoy it. This is mainly due to the fact that I have almost no symptoms. I know it is early, but I have been here before, with no symptoms and did not turn out good. I am scared to have a u/s and see nothing inside my uterus, I am terrified about this... My numbers are good but my boobs stopped hurting and are not any bigger, that scares me. I am scared that the only thing that is keeping me from bleeding is the fact that I am on prometrium. I've waited so long to be here , and now here I am and terrified. Dh hates that I say that I want to feel sick, to feel tired, to feel hungry.... he says I should feel lucky. I do have some symptoms:

1- GAS, OMG, it is very bad
2- a bit tired after 5 pm, but not much
3- blue veins but not soreness
4- metallic taste on my mouth ( in the morning)
5- minor skin break out

I don't want to sound ungrateful, but I need to share my feelings otherwise I'll explode.
Please baby grow... make youself noticeble... pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Come on little one... show mommy you're there.
Hoping you will feel "worse" soon and that it will settle your mind.

I hope you start barfing soon :) Seriously, though, the symptoms you are having are legit, too. I never had the metal taste in my mouth, but I am with you on the gas!

I hate feeling sick, so I don't wish that on you...but I do hope the boob hurting returns and they get bigger - Who doesn't want big boobs?

Those other signs? Totally good ones.

I'm 8w4d and feel the same way even though I've seen the heartbeat 3 different times! I just can't relax bc I'm so fearful it'll be stolen from me like in the past! The fear is always there, but it gets a little better with every passing week! Im hoping it'll all pass after 12 weeks! That's what I keep telling myself!!

Cibele, I didn't feel any symptoms before week 6 in either pregnancy, and I didn't have sore breats in neither of them. Symptoms vary greatly, but I DO know what you mean, my secnd pregnancy was scary as hell... I don't think you're being ungrateful, you have reason to feel the way you do and it's all valid! You're already worrying about your peanut and that's perfectly normal! The numbers are great, but I think you'll only relax a little when you see your baby during the ultrasound. If even that doesn't make you feel any better, well, join the club. I do hope you can feel more rested and assured soon. It sucks to be in fear the whole time.

I hope you have every symptom (in moderation of course) in the the book to help you feel your little one within.

Cibele I sense something very special about you.
My wish is that you continue to see good things for the next few months and beyond.

Mony said...

OH! Well I wish a serious case of heartburn & gagging on you!

Your early symptoms sound lovely honey. It will play on your mind until U/S.
Love those numbers, hold on to them.

I felt terrific till about 6 weeks then felt horrible till week 16 then great again...it can come and go and I felt worse at night...so no morning sickness....it can be hugely different for each person/pregnancy so you may be one of the lucky ones :)
