Pregnant after IF

Probably worried for nothing....

I'm 7w1d and a little nervous because I really don't have an appetite. I'm not nauseous or anything, I just don't want to eat. Baby C looked good on u/s last week so I could be worried for nothing....I'm just so afraid of some horrible turn of events looming ahead. Did anyone else experience lack of an appetite early on?

Me:Hypothyroid DH: Type II diabetic. Together since 03/2007, Married 10/2011, D/C bc 10/2011. TTC: 11/2011. Charted BBT and CV along with OPK 10/2011-02/2012 Baseline labs 02/2012 WNL, SA 03/2012: botched sample by lab - destroyed hubby's confidence. 04/2012 Clomid 05/2012 Clomid 06/2012 Clomid 07/2012 Clomid and Ovidrel 08/2012 Ovidrel (I never knew that I was supposed to be monitored while on meds...I never was. I asked for u/s and other tests to see why we weren't getting pregnant, doc just kept giving me meds and telling me to go to his church for a "laying of hands") Stopped all monitoring/testing/temps, etc, Sex became a chore and we started to grow apart. At 12 mos I decided to look for another doc. 02/2013 consult with new doc....3 days later testing began...u/s, all good, HSG: all good, labs: all good, ovulating, etc. Started on Pregnitude. 04/2013 failed attempt for SA, 05/2013 failed attempt SA. 12/2013 SA: 3% morph, abnormal functionality. DH started Pycnogenol. RE consult 01/15/2014.

Re: Probably worried for nothing....

  • I'm only 6 weeks but nausea has set in and I alternately want to eat nothing and eat everything. Sometimes those feelings aren't mutually exclusive. It's weird.

  • I'd say a lack of appetite early on is very normal. I went back and forth between feeling completely nauseous and having a lack of appetite for several weeks during first tri. I know it's hard, but try not to let all the wacky symptoms get you down!

  • I had m/s starting at 5 1/2 weeks till about 18 weeks. Now I'm a beast and eat constantly.

    Don't worry mama, it all evens out. You'll feel best in second tri.

  • I still have the lack of appetite days. I am currently 27 weeks.

  • I'm 10w 5 days today and I still have no appetite. I've actually lost 3lbs and I've only thrown up twice. However, with the exception of crackers to curb the nausea, there is very little that I actually feel like eating. AND, when I do eat, I get full after about 5 bites. 


    Me (31) - PCOS with insulin resistance

    4 rounds of Clomid = no response
    IVF # 1 - ET (1 3AA, 4 frosties): 12/22 = BFP
    EDD: 9/9/2014

  • You are going to have a lot of these feelings. Unfortunately since we have been through so much, we freak out over everything! I got real nauseous and sick to my stomach the whole first tri and didn't really want to eat a lot. We all go through it differently. I'm sure you are doing fine, just be more diligent about getting food in ya. I tried drinking juice, ensure, milk to get calories. Whatever works. Good luck

     

  • I have heard of this happening- one of my work friends said that pregnancy was her best weight loss plan ever bc she just didn't want to eat. I would try not to worry, and just eat what you can. It's preferable not to gain during first tri anyway (tell that to MY body. Argh.)

    For me, basically anything where my body feels funky is totally normal during first tri. Of course, you're on the lookout for bleeding or bad cramps, but the other stuff- nausea, lack of appetite, extreme hunger, fatigue, lightheadedness, moodiness (oh, the moodiness!), etc- those are all normal. Also, stressing over every little symptom is normal ;)

    Edit: grammar
    DH and I are Americans living an adventure in Kenya since 2011
    DX: PCOS (annovulatory)
    Feb 2012: IUI #1 w/ only 1M sperm and a single follie = BFP! 
    Nov 2012: Little buddy born in Kenya
    Nov 2013: Trying for a second, still w PCOS
    Dec 2013: IUI cycle canceled for non-response
    Jan 2014: Break cycle BFP!
