Why do I do this?

I freak out over the stupidest things, I woke up today with not having much breast tenderness and not feeling "pregnant." I just want a steady symptom that shows that my pregnancy is going in the right direction. I am so worried. I even broke down and called the nurse and she told me that symptoms come and go, but I still don't feel pregnant. 

 

Please tell me that there are other ladies that are going through this right now...

I woke up this morning and kind of forgot that I was pregnant until a few minutes later when I was getting in the shower. It's okay - it comes and goes and just try to enjoy the times you don't have any crappy symptoms!

Even with my symptoms, I still don' t really feel pregnant.  I thought at first it was because we hadn't told many people.  But even though we went public 2 weeks ago, I still have times I don;t feel pregnant.  I have my 2nd appointment tomorrow.  I hope the U/S helps.

I'm right there with you some days my boobs feel full and tender other days they are back to normal....I get nervous all the time too but have faith and everything will be fine :-) ill tell ya one thing that isn't coming and going is this darn constipation!!!!!

Your nurse is right...The symptoms are not the same 24/7.  Mine come and go..my boobs hurt worse than others sometimes, I feel more bloated at different times of the day, sometimes I have cramps and sometimes I don't.  Same with nausea..I could feel fine one minute and then queasy the next.  It's hard, I know, but try not to stress yourself out too bad.  What you're feeling sounds completely normal.

I honestly do not know why I put myself through this, I really need to stop googling things. It makes things 10x worse.

7 weeks was just about when my symptoms came on full-steam.  So don't think you're out of the woods yet.

Seeing as just about every other post on here is about disappearing symptoms I'm guessing you're alright.  If you'd like some of my steady m/s I'll give it to ya

 

Haha..I would like to have m/s at least I know my body and pregnancy is on the right track.

I'm making myself (and DH) crazy.  I'm just over 8 weeks and my first OB appt is Thursday.  I can hardly wait.  I've had spotting for two weeks, it stopped and it started again (brighter red) on Saturday.  I had a m/c before and I was convinced it was happening again.  I'm hoping they'll want to do bw on Thursday to give me some piece of mind.  I don't do well with waiting so that probably has something to do with it!  HA!

Will this be your first u/s? My miscarriages have burst my happy/stress free pregnancy bubble. Lol

I freak out all the time too.  When I was pregnant with my son, I didn't have one pregnancy symptom.  No breast tenderness, no morning sickness, no constipation, just nothing.  I wanted symptoms so bad but they never came.

Never had one symptom? I would have been a nervous wreck. I suppose everything turned out okay with that pregnancy?

Yeah, he came a couple months early, but the lack of symptoms didn't have anything to do with that.  He's a very active two year old!  I didn't feel pregnant until I started to show.

Careful what you wish for... I have been wanting to "feel" pregnant for a while now, and finally the last two days I have woken up with the worst m/s!  I am totally regretting wishing for symptoms.  I also have the worst heartburn too.  Like I said, I know you want to feel like you're pregnant, but be careful what you wish for because you just might get it.
