Have you noticed some of your symptoms start to not be as strong? For example, my boobs hurt like crazy during 6-8 weeks, but now from about 8-9wks they barely hurt, only a little at night after I take my bra off. And when I was in the 6-8 week range, I couldn't get enough water, I was constantly drinking, and now, I'm struggling to get 1.5-2L of liquid down a day. My nausea is still there, but doesn't seem as strong as before. Anyone else? I'm getting nervous because we lost our last pregnancy at 8 weeks.

Most of my sympotoms have gotten better in the last week. I am less tired, boobs less sore and m/s is less often. Still have a lot of food aversions but am able to eat, so that's a good sign.
Mine come and go. My nausea was not bad last week, but today it has hit me full force and I haven't gotten off the couch.
The morning of my first appointment I had no symptoms, which made me super nervous because I was the same day we found out we lost our last pregnancy (9 weeks, 1 day) but everything turned out to be fine. I understand where you're coming from, though.
My boobs are way less sore. Still having the nausea on and off. It is worse today - but I think that has more to do with being out late last night celebrating Halloween, and not getting as much sleep due to the dogs. Just like kids they don't care if you've been out late the night before.

i am a bit better, - i was able to keep down dinner last night - no problem. my boobs are less sore and today i felt great - almost not pregnant at all
I haven't had much in the way of symptoms the whole time so that's been disconcerting from the beginning. My boobs are sore, but that might be from my progesterone supplements. We lost our last pg at 9 weeks so I am right there with you on the nerves.
my nausea has disappeared over the last 4 days, but wasn't terrible to start with. I don't feel nearly as bloated (more just fat now) and my boobs are still big but don't hurt unless they get hit or something. not as thirsty or hungry either. I've been very nervous about this the last few days as well.
Just when I started to feel normal this weekend, I just started feeling nauseous again. Boobs are definitely a little less sore, but I am just feeling fatter like a PP said. And I can never get enough sleep.

Yes, my nausea hasn't been quite as bad as it was in weeks 6 or 7, and my boobs hurt a little less. I was reading the May board though and it seems like a lot of women had a reprieve from weeks 8-9, and then it got bad again in weeks 10-11, so I'm going to try to enjoy the light symptoms now!
My boobs only ever hurt at night, so that hasn't changed. My m/s comes and goes, so that's not really a gauge either with me. However, my heartburn is MUCH better and I am finally not so constipated this last 3-4 days. It's fabulous. The constipation was killing me.
I hear over and over again every woman and every pregnancy is different. Hopefully all is well with you. When is your next appointment?
I just barely hit 8 weeks and some of my symptoms are fading. My nausea has gotten a little worse, but my boobs are not as sore and I haven't had as much cramping lately either.
In the last few days I've noticed the same thing. My boobs don't hurt as much. I've barely been able to drink water as well in the last couple days. Normally I drink well above 2L per day.
I'm still feeling nauseous though. My fatigue has also gotten far worse. I constantly feel like I've barely slept.
My boobs are less sore, but not back to baseline. I'm drinking less water, but I've been home more and we keep the house like 60*, it's less enticing to drink a big glass of water when I'm cold!
I've been lucky enough to have really mild symptoms as it is, but it seems to have gotten better this last week. The cramping and constant need for a nap seem to have subsided. The only things still going strong are the sore boobies and the bloat. I did get a new symptom, though.... I haven't had any morning sickness, but I've started gagging at random smells. I'm not going to complain, though. Some of the other mommies have had it so rough!
Mine seems to be the opposite. The past few days my boobs have been killing me and my nausea/dry heaving has been worse the past couple days. Hopefully I am hitting the peak and will start to come back down the other side soon!
mine just showed up at 7 weeks and really got worse at 8. I am tired 24/7, even in the morning. I always have a headache and sometimes am repulsed by eating.
I have noticed that the fatigue has started to subside, as well as the boob soreness, however the m/s has gotten worse. Before I was just mostly dry heaving, now I'm throwing up

It definitely helps to hear a lot of us are going through the same thing! I'm hoping to get in with a new dr this week so that will definitely help reassure me. Thanks ladies

I've hardly had any symptoms at all but the little things I was noticing are basically gone. It worries me a lot and I just can't wait for my next appointment (3 more weeks!) to feel better.

I'm feeling the same as you. My morning sickness isn't as bad, although saturday was awful! Not sure if it was from the flu shot friday afternoon though. Boobs are not quite as sore, but like you i notice it more when i take my bra off. I am still just sooooo tired and gasy!
My symptoms have gotten worse, actually! I've had on and off nausea, but on the way to work this morning, I almost actually hurled. Blech. And I have been so exhausted. I'm not complaining though! Symptoms are a good thing!
My symptoms definitely seem less severe. From weeks 5 to maybe 7.5, I was wiped all the time and seriously nauseated. Now, I'm not sure if I've just gotten used to it or if I'm better at controlling the nausea, but I'm not as bothered by the symptoms lately.
My mom told me she had m/s with me for 7 months, so I'm hoping this reprieve isn't temporary
Been away from theBump for a while, getting active again for all the good advice
I actually haven't had many symptoms. My nipples were really sore a few weeks ago and now they aren't that bad. I was cramping pretty bad two-three weeks ago but now I get a twinge every once in a while. All in all I have been really lucky so far.

My symptoms weren't that strong to begin with, although I have had very mild m/s, heartburn and exhaustion. Oh, and the bloating has been unbelievable. I think my exhaustion is actually increasing, for some reason.
9 weeks was when my symptoms started to decline with DS. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's the same with this pregnancy! 'Cause then I've got less than 3 weeks to go until I start feeling better, woo hoo!
Past two weeks I have pretty much been symptom free Nausea has subsided, getting energy back, boobs feel normal again, bloat is better...still have super human smell and dont care for meat...but I can eat it if I want
I am pretty excited to feel like a normal person again...I am even sleeping a little better!!!

I think 9 weeks is when most of the symptoms peak.
With my first pregnancy that was when the fatigue started to subside. I haven't had much in the way of symptoms this time.

Hey K
I could of written this! How are you doing?
My boobs only ever hurt at night, so that hasn't changed. My m/s comes and goes, so that's not really a gauge either with me. However, my heartburn is MUCH better and I am finally not so constipated this last 3-4 days. It's fabulous. The constipation was killing me.

I'm MORE exhausted and getting up MORE at night to use the bathroom; however, my boobs are less sore (only at night)! Yea!
I haven't had any M/S or aversions to food thus far, thankfully.
