So I haven't been feeling bad really, but last week I think I caught a bit of a bug. I felt terrible for about a week with a low grade fever.
Now I feel great. My boobs don't hurt anymore and I'm not nearly as tired as I was. Plus, no more nausea. This should be great right? Except that it really worries me! Am I just being stupid, or is this something to worry about? When I felt bad, people kept telling me that it was good, that it meant everything was going well with the baby. What does it mean now that I feel better? *panic face*

I had a few days around 8-10 weeks where the nausea would subside and I'd get a burst of energy. And after enjoying it for 2 seconds I'd freak out. And then within the next day or two it would be back. I know this is hard advice to take but unless you've had any serious cramps or bleeding, try to relax and trust that your baby is a-okay. But if you're really nervous call your dr tomorrow and see if they want to test your levels or anything. You won't be the first (or the last!) to call with concerns. (((hugs)))
My symptoms (during my successful pregnancy) started to ease at week 10. They made a nasty return a couple of times in the following weeks- so you may just be nearing the end of your 1st tri misery! If you're worried though, call your doc for an u/s. It may ease your mind quite a bit! I had a ton of 1st tri u/s to keep me sane!
((hugs))

I started feeling better at around 9 or 10 weeks, it seems. Still, if it were me, I'd try to get in to see the doctor sooner, just for peace of mind.

I think I felt the same exact way at that point. I even remember crying to Jay about it and saying, "I'm not sick anymore, what's happening!?" And he was so confounded by it b/c I had been so nauseated and complaining about that. Poor guy.
Keep us updated, hope all is well in there!
I woke up on week 12 day 1 (with my 1st pg) and didn't feel a single thing. I was a nervous wreck from then until the time when I could feel Jack moving around (a good month later).?
Hopefully, you've just entered that time where your body lets you enjoy being pg for a while!!?
