Pregnant after 35

Nervous at 5 wks

Hello,

I became pregnant through ivf with possible twins. My first beta was 270 and my second was around 1400. My only symptoms have been some migraine headaches which have cleared up, and now I feel completely normal, almost too normal for my liking. I'm about to go into my first ultrasound tomorrow and I feel like there might not be anything there since my pregnancy symptoms just seemed to have up and left. What do you think of all of this? Did any of you have similar happenings? Thank you

Re: Nervous at 5 wks

  • Totally normal. You are only 5 weeks. I did not have any symptoms except mild cramps and food aversions.

  • Don't worry. I'm due in a week and had no symptoms the first trimester. I was so nervous. I made them do an ultrasound for my piece of mind. Everything was perfect in there. I was just one of the lucky ones and have had a very easy pregnancy. You may just be one of those women. I'm still feeling so good and still going to the gym about 5x week. Don't worry just enjoy the ride :

    I felt good until about 7 weeks, then it hit me like a Mac truck. You are very early, I wouldn't worry! Try to relax and enjoy your happy news. Congrats on your bfp!
    Me:41, DH:41 Positive for MTHFR mutations- one copy C677T, one copy A1298C. One daughter born on Thanksgiving in 2013. Six losses.
  • Yes, totally normal to have symptoms one day and not the next. I'd freak out that it meant I lost my baby, but nope. It's just a break from symptoms. Don't worry, they'll come back.

    GL at your ultrasound tomorrow!
    Me: 38, DH: 35

  • My symptoms did not really kick in until I was six weeks along and I was also on progesterone injections which makes me even more nauseous.  Once I hit the six week mark I noticed all my symptoms went into high gear.  Good news on your beta numbers those look great!
