I wish I felt pregnant :(

I admit, I have been a nervous wreck since our BFP. I calmed down a bit when we saw the hb on our first u/s and was actually doing ok up until a few days ago. I guess I'm getting anxious for our 2nd u/s, which is next Thursday. My biggest fear is me going there and my doctor telling me that baby is not developing or behind. I know I shouldn't be so negative but it's so hard to actually believe that I might actually HAVE this baby! It just seems too good to be true! It also doesn't help that I do NOT feel pregnant. Nothing about my body screams pregnant and it's killing me. My boobs feel fine, I have no nausea, no cravings. The only that is keeping me from cracking are the constant vivid dreams and the getting up 1-2 times per night. Other than that, nada. I just can't wait until I hit the 2nd tri. Hopefully then I'll be able to relax and maybe finally start to enjoy this pregnancy.

Sorry for making this so long, it's really just a vent, if anything.

I know it's hard, but hang in there. Remember,you've made it to 10 weeks, so the most likely scenario is that everything is perfectly fine! I had very few symptoms-- my boobs were never really sore. I had some mild nausea in the evenings but it came and went (and of course every time it went, I was worried!) 

 I never totally relaxed, but things got a lot better once I could feel the baby move, which was around 20 weeks. I know that seems far away now but you'll be there before you know it.

Awww...I know how you feel. I have evening sickness but that's it. My boobs aren't (and never were) sore/full and I've got nothing going on in terms of showing (I know it's way too early). I know it's hard to relax and I doubt any of us really do, but try to think positvely. Getting to 10 weeks is great and the odds are that everything is fine.

I know I won't really start to feel like this might actually be happening until I can feel the baby move/start to show. It stinks that you have to wait so long for that to happen but hang in there!

I felt that way for a long time too.  People didn't really think I looked pregnant at all either until after 20 weeks, so that was frustrating too.  But now...oh I feel it!  Hang in there, it seems like the first tri takes forever go to by and then the 2nd tri flew by!

I am about at the same stage as you and have had really no symptoms.  I don't have sore boobs, no m/s, no food aversions, nothing.  If I hadn't seen the u/s at 6 and 8 weeks, I would wonder if I was really pregnant.  I guess we should be happy we feel good.

Thanks for the reassurance, girls. I did the unthinkable the other day and bought a doppler. It might end up doing more harm than good if I don't find the hb but I keep telling myself to not freak out, that my chances of not locating it are high since I'm still pretty early and not mention, I'm kind of chunky. I just know that it'll help me relax in the future, when I'm more further along.

Six more days! Six more days!

I felt very similar in the beginning. My symptoms were minimal and I worried before every u/s that something was going to be wrong. I thought once I hit the 2nd tri that the worry would stop but it doesn't. Even though the baby moves quite a bit if I don't feel him for an hour or so, I immdietly start to worry. I don't think the worry will ever stop. Just part of being a mom.
