first baby

I'm 6 weeks today :) did anyone ever feel like taking more pregnancy tests at this time to make sure they are still pregnant? Not sure if that's a stupid question but this is all new to me. Haven't gotten morning sickness at all...yet lol...just sore boobs and peeing more.

Re: first baby

  • I went See the midwife wed when I was 7 weeks and I did a test day before lol I really don't know why I ain't started with morning sickness yet sometimes I feel sick and like I'm goin be then nothing.

  • Yeah I'm not sure I guess because it's so new I just want to make sure everything is still happening and that I'm doing everything right. Maybe I'm just anxious too to see the bump lol!
  • Yes! I feel the exact same way! My first appointment is April 7th. I took 4 tests and had blood test as well to confirm. There's days where I feel more bloated then anything lol
  • Tell me about the bloating. Heh. I feel so far, and I know that this isn't the baby yet. Just air. This is my first, so I'm wicked anxious that baby is just gonna disappear on me before my first obgyn appointment. Very few symptoms compared to what I've heard. The frequent urinating is a big one, and the constantly hungry. Been getting a bit constipated though. Argh. I'm do nervous. Advice for managing that anxiety?
  • The pregnancy test I took came with two in the pack. The clear blue one that tells you the weeks. The first time it said 1-2 weeks two weeks ago. Yesterday I took the other one and it said 3+ weeks. I took that as a good sign. First appointment is in two weeks.
  • Enjoy feeling good, girl. After I hit 6.5 weeks, that was when morning sickness began. I haven't taken a pregnancy test since 2 days after the first positive test. Esp. now that it's been confirmed by a doctor via blood test and US. Good luck, I also took the CBE pregnancy tests and love the weeks indicator! It's a good sign for sure.

  • Oh I'm just waiting for the morning sickness to kick in lol! I'll be grateful it doesn't but I'm prepared I think lol! I did take one of the weeks indicator tests when I first found out which was pretty dead on.
  • I'm almost 9 weeks and still worried every day I'm not really pregnant.  I had my first us at 7 weeks and everything looked great, but I have had very mild symptoms so far.  I only get nauseous if I'm really hungry and I feel worn out by 9 pm.

    I feel the same way. No real symptoms besides some cramping but I've had 5 positive tests lol. Not seeing my OB for several weeks since I'm just 5w5d. I'm also nervous that my baby is gonna disappear on me before my first appointment and my doctor's gonna think I'm nuts lol :-?
  • I'm actually starting to get some nausea but nothing too too bad. Now this morning I was up to go to the bathroom but then couldn't fall back to sleep. I felt like I had a little bit of indigestion or nausea. I moved to our couch and could get another 2 hours in but that was the worst I got so far.
  • I took 2 tests and then stopped for my own sanity. Reading on here how people stress themselves out over lines on a urine test was a real eye opener for me! Good luck!
  • I did the digital weeks estimator too until 6 weeks. To make sure my levels were rising. I'm 7 weeks 4 days. But I know someone on here said it was wrong at 7 weeks for them. I know at some point your HCG a gets too high to record accurately-at least that's what I've learned on here! But I watched it go from 1-2 weeks to 2-3 weeks to 3 plus weeks when I was 5 weeks. Then I took one more at 6 weeks and saw 3+ again, then I stopped. I just needed the reassurance! But it would've sucked if it were wrong-would've caused pointless worrying!
  • That was how I felt until 5w4d and my nausea and throwing up kicked in. It's completely debilitating! With the added bonus of occasional diarrhea! The only time I'm not sick is when I'm asleep. It's been almost a week of this and the desire to take more pregnancy tests is totally gone :) My first pregnancy as well.
  • I'm 8 weeks have symptoms and i still want to take more tests to make sure my baby is still there lol my first appointment is today and since 5 weeks ive taken 5 tests just to make sure my little love bug was still holdin on in there lol to be honest part of my is scared that I'll go in today and they'll be like "um ok crazy lady you're not pregnant heres your straight jacket" lol is that a normal thing?
  • I am 7weeks today and I took about 6 pregnancy test for about 2 weeks just to make sure I was still pregnant. I went and had the first ultrasound two days ago and everything was perfect!
  • I feel the same way. No real symptoms besides some cramping but I've had 5 positive tests lol. Not seeing my OB for several weeks since I'm just 5w5d. I'm also nervous that my baby is gonna disappear on me before my first appointment and my doctor's gonna think I'm nuts lol :-?

    Omg, me too. I was just telling my fiance that last night. He was sweet about it though.
  • Not a stupid question at all. It is so hard to wait for that first appointment! I'm 7 weeks today and my appointment in in two weeks. The wait is killing me and I was thinking about going to get more tests from the grocery store... You are so not alone!
  • I am pregnant with my first 5w and 3 days and have no systems except for fatigue. I have taken four test and don't have my first appointment til 4/23...so I'm nervous.
  • I feel the same way! I took a CBD today just to make sure (I'm 5w2d) and it said 3+, so that makes me feel better!

    The only symptoms I've had is cramping on and off. I'm almost more worried when I have no symptoms then when I have them!

    Oh I'm so glad I'm not crazy. I took one 2 days after my missed period and got a negative. Then another after 18 days, and got my BFP! That was yesterday, and I'm going to the Dr's today for an "official" test-- I'm so nervous that I won't be pregnant suddenly! D:
    I'm about 6w6d
    Baby number 1 on the way!
