When did your pregnancy symptoms go away? (Siggy warning)

YaMrWhite · January 2014

I know my situation is different than most as I am still pregnant and am having to terminate the pregnancy with a D&C due to thoracopagus conjoined twins sharing one heart with no chance of survival. Because of this, I still have all the pregnancy symptoms. Sore, enlarged boobs, lower back pain, nausea, fatigue. How long after your D&C did you no longer have these normal pregnancy symptoms?

My remaining symptoms are pretty much gone 2 days after the D&C. I lost some symptoms when baby stopped growing, though I didn't know I was miscarrying and thought it was just because I was approaching 2nd tri.

I also lost some symptoms before I learned of the mmc and I can say one week after learning of it and stopping the etc progesterone and estrogen I was on (IVF infertility cycle so lots of meds) I don't 'feel' pg at all. It's only been five days since passing my child, but at least nine since it's heart stopped beating so I think it should happen fairly quickly for you.
I am so so sorry for what you have to go through. When is your d&c scheduled for?

@katib77 it's scheduled for Tuesday. I've never dreaded something and wished to hurry it up all at the same time. Major inner struggle

I am SO sorry. I can't even imagine what you are going through right now.

As for symptoms, mine actually got worse over the weekend and I'm not sure why. My D&C was 6 days ago. Hoping they subside soon.

@imwunderlich how are you feeling today? I hope your D&C went as smoothly as it could. Thinking of you.

Thank you so much for checking on me. Symptom wise I feel great. No cramping today, no need for pain meds, and no bleeding or spotting though I expect that to change throughout the next week or so. Emotionally I am better than I was yesterday and tomorrow I'm sure I will be better than today.

Glad to hear you're not in pain. Emotionally I find it comes and goes. I went three days with no crying then yesterday a tv show made me bawl because there was a birth on it. Stupid Castle writers making me jealous of fictional people. Anyway, glad you're doing well.
