Subsiding Symptoms = Rising Anxiety

11w5d right now and I finally am turning the corner... Nausea and food aversions have calmed down substantially and while I'm still tired, it's not kicking my butt like it was. I know this is all normal but... Since I'm not showing yet and I won't get my next doc appt for another week, I feel MAJOR anxiety. Like, am I even still pregnant if I don't feel awful? I know chances are everything is fine and I'm still pregnant and I should just be happy I'm finally out of the 1st trimester woods, but I am just fretting everyday, like positive I'm walking around w a MMC. Anyone else feeling this way? I wish there was like, a tiny window where I could just peek and make sure everything was ok, the way you can check on your cookies while they bake, lol.

Re: Subsiding Symptoms = Rising Anxiety

  • I feel the EXACT same way (disappearance of all pregnancy symptoms, certain that Ive had a MMC) starting about two weeks ago. I’m currently only 10w3d. I have my next ultrasound next week so.. we shall see..

  • I also feel the same exact way. Currently 12 weeks, 4 days - still nauseous but symptoms are definitely decreasing. I just keep reminding myself that it’s normal for symptoms to start to decrease towards the end of the first trimester. I also keep trying to tell myself that luckily they are decreasing as I know a small number of people experience them the entire pregnancy and I should try to relax and enjoy my time. Ultimately I know that whatever is going to happen is going to happen regardless but that doesn’t really help. I have my nuchal translucency scan tomorrow so hoping that helps to ease some of my fears!

    100% freaks me out to feel better right now. I’m 13wks today. I know I’m technically “out of the woods” at least some right now. But starting to feel normal had me totally freaked out. I’m still having heartburn/indigestion and am grateful for that lol. Have a dr apt Friday and it can’t come soon enough

    Definitely there, my first I was sick the entire time. She was a surprise, this pregnancy was planned and we've had several early MC, but before first ultrasounds even. So trying to find comfort in that US, next one is this Thursday. I'm also on bonjesta and zofran so trying to just appreciate that they're working, if I go too long without zofran I get nauseous again and I'm like, "oh okay still good"..
