Weird feelings?

Sydneyrunde

I just found out I was 6 weeks pregnant, 2 nights ago, it just feels so unreal, and hard to believe? Do others feel that way? And I haven't had any symptoms really but cramping & belly aches. Is this normal? I'm a first time mommy.

Congrats! Being pregnant is always kinda an adventure. Its all very surreal for me too right now and im just hoping for no morning sickness. The cramping and stomac aches tend to be pretty normal. As for other symptoms they can start showing up anytime now or maybe in a few weeks or if you're really lucky not at all. Good luck!

Thanks! I'm excited! Congrats to you too, I'm just hoping for the no morning sickness to

If it does show up.. Tiny meals frequently if you can, water if you can, rest as much as possible and remember one day at a time and this too shall pass!

I feel the exact same way and it's good to know someone else does,too. This is my first pregnancy and we hadn't even had a chance to start trying yet and surprise!!! Pregnant!!!! I don't feel like it's happening either. Last week I had some mild nausea. Now I only have sore breasts and my cramps have been going on for weeks and have lessened this week. I can't wait to see the doctor so that It will all be reality.

Glad you are feeling the same. I have to wait til 10 weeks, oct. 25th for my first appointment, I hate having to wait that long just cause all these odd feelings!!

I felt the same way too! I went into full freak out mode until I settled into being extremely happy. But I had this strange feeling well up inside me, like it just wasn't right,  that I couldn't be pregnant. It went away in a couple days, especially when the back cramps kicked in! I'm a FTM too! Congrats!!

I'm still kinda in disbelief...I think I just need to get the first dr.'s appt. over. I actually just said to my DH, are you sure that I'm pregnant and not just getting fat!? Mind you...I had 3 BFD! Oh boy...

Same here! .. I'm now 6 weeks 0 days and have only sore boob/nipples.. Slight bloating/fatigue.... It's hard to "feel" pregs before firs appt etc.. FTM TOO!!! Can't wait for the appt!!

I totally can relate. As soon as I stopped taking my BCP it was like -BAM. Preggo. It was one thing to talk about having a baby, but it's another thing to be expecting gone so fast! Don't get me wrong, we are thrilled, but the reality hasn't quite set in. I have my dr appointment on Monday, and I keep thinking it's all some sort of glitch and their going to tell me I'm not pregnant after all. Haha I know that sounds weird, but it just seems totally surreal.

Haha well I have to wait til 10 weeks for my first appointment, so all you that get it sooner are lucky! I still have another month before my first one

Wow same here. FTM no u/s yet and we weren't trying, just not not trying. Figured it would take the year but took 4 months with sporadic periods. I'm very nervous and my hubs I don't think has accepted it. Certainly excited but still really scared about the mom thing coming up soon.

Not sure it has sunk in for my hubby either. I definable feel the changing my body is going through. It's hard to believe I'm pregnant still, but I think our 8 week u/s will fix that for both of us. Maybe he won't think I'm crazy anymore with all my symptoms. Congrats to everyone!

Congratulations!  I know exactly what you mean about it not feeling real.  We had to go in last minute for an ultrasound last week and since I was only 5w3d all we saw was the sac.  It was a little more real but I still think it hasn't hit us 100% that we are having a baby. We go back in Thursday to try and see the baby/heartbeat and if it's there I know that is when it will finally hit us.

I'm the same! We got pregnant the first month we tried (so blessed) but it almost makes it feel not real- like we should have had to try harder or something. My husband doesn't seem to believe it at all, haha. He keeps saying "after we go to the doctor...." Well that's today, so he has about 4 hours until it's real to him!

Pretty sure hearing our baby's heart beat will make us both cry!

Sydneyrunde

well I just talked to my doctor to see what to expect at my first appointment and I was hoping an ultrasound sound..nope...gotta wait til 18 weeks. Wtf

I still haven't been to the OB doctor yet, but I saw my primary for another reason and he forced me to get blood work done now and I keep thinking that it is going to be negative! I think I have officially lost my mind. I know things happen, but I took two pregnancy tests and I am pregnant!!! Why is this still not sinking in?! I can't wait for my appointment.
