I was so relieved when I reached 14 weeks and my fatigue, migraines, and general ickiness subsided but now I'm just not feeling pregnant. My breasts don't seem as full, I don't get up in the middle of the night to pee. It's got me a little worried.
I was feeling the same way yesterday! Then I got home from work and was exhausted again... Today I feel great, I'm choosing to enjoy it instead of get freaked out again :-)
NOT AT ALL! I am BEYOND happy to feel semi normal again.
But I understand where you're coming from. My first doctor's appointment wasn't until I was 13 weeks. Most of my symptoms stopped around 11 weeks, so for those 2 weeks I didn't feel pregnant and was starting to feel worried that maybe something had happened. But, all is well.
OK, I don't miss my symptoms. But I still get worried that something could go wrong with my pregnancy. I've had so many losses and difficulties I just can't help it.
I don't miss my symptoms but I did with the DS because I had no way of knowing that everything was ok. Now, however, I feel movement already do it was a 2 our 3 week period between being sick and feeling the baby. I know it's scary after loss but you kind of have to trust that things are ok and, as @CogDis said, you can get your hands on a doppler. Forewarning though, dippers can make you worry more if you can't find the heart beat yourself so you can just listen to the noises. If it sounds like somethings moving around in there than it probably is.
I feel exactly the same way. As much as the symptoms were an annoyance, they were also a reminder of my little one and that everything was taking place as planned.
You're certainly not alone with how you're feeling.
I am literally praising the Lord each day I feel like a normal person and not an annoyed zombie!! Today is a good day and I'm so happy!! :-) Cherishing this since I'm guessing new 2nd tri symptoms will start soon.
Symptoms don't make you pregnant! Don't worry about it! I haven't had any major symptoms my whole pregnancy! I was super tired till week 6 and then I felt great! Everything is going great with my baby! Just try to enjoy it.
I don't "miss" puking all day but I miss that feeling that misery means all is well. I miscarried before and while the puking and nausea and exhaustion were awful, they confirmed things were still going well in my body. So, I completely understand your fears. I remind myself of the ultrasounds I've had and I look at the photos. Statistics are also on our side at this point so I take comfort in those. And, soon we'll feel kicks and that's going to be way better than puking!!
I understand how you feel! I'm in the same boat! I had been hospitalized twice in my first tri, on meds for blood infections and everything else. Though I was completely miserable, the fatigue, sore boobs, morning sickness, etc were all reminders that baby was still growing! I'm glad to feel normal again but some days I worry. Just know that new symptoms will come along and baby will even start to kick which is the best reassurance in my eyes! Enjoy the peace!
I totally understand what you are saying @danichyl! I've had a miscarriage before, so having those symptoms made me feel more comforted that I thinks were progressing as they should. Now, this week, I've been feeling back to my usual self (and still having to convince myself I'm really pregnant). I can't wait to start feeling the little one moving around inside me!
I feel the same way! My first tri I was getting sick every 2 hours, couldn't eat without getting sick but had to eat to keep from getting sick! :-q now I might get sick once a week and other than a growing belly I have no other symptoms! I thought about a Doppler but have heard so many people stress them selves out that I don't want one anymore!
Re: Anyone else missing their symptoms?
I, for one, do not miss vomiting or constantly feeling like it.
Enjoy feeling great for now - it's normal! Late 2nd and all of 3rd tri have enough symptoms to make you feel "better."
Although I replaced my first tri symptoms with headaches and constipation so I guess I'm just one if the lucky ones who still "feels pregnant."
