9 weeks and symptoms seem to be subsiding?

Hi All!!!

This is my first pregnancy, I'm 24 years old and was shocked and excited to find out that my boyfriend and I are expecting a little one. I haven't gotten an ultrasound yet due to the hospital losing my paperwork and etc (very frustrating)..but my ob and gyn did 2 internal exams and felt that everything was going normal.

I experienced very very tender breasts, fits of anxiety and anger for no apparent reason lol, my hair will not stop falling out, I was extremely extremely nauseous almost everyday for about 2 weeks, and my fatigue has me in bed for days at a time.

Now, I have found that some and most of these symptoms have decreased or subsided. I experienced a little spotting that showed for like 3 hours and then i havent spotted since. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm getting nervous, praying everything is okay, and more nervous because we go for our first ultrasound on Tuesday morning. Pray to see a little heartbeat and baby on the screen!!

Re: 9 weeks and symptoms seem to be subsiding?

  • I think its normal for symptoms to subside as the weeks progress.
    Im curious why you had two internal exams? Even one seems odd for a pregnancy conirmation?

  • I had first had an appointment with my Gyno before I even found out I was pregnant for a pap smear because my last one came back abnormal, so one internal there and the OB just wanted to give me one herself just to make sure everything was going smoothly since I haven't had an ultrasound or blood wrk done at the time.
  • I'm 9 weeks today and I'm experiencing a decrease in symptoms too. My breasts aren't sore anymore and I woke up feeling energized. I'm trying not to worry and to just be happy I feel good today because tomorrow might be a whole new story.

    In the future this would be a great post for the daily symptom thread where you can post and also read how everyone else is feeling today. :)

    Tuesday is just around the corner, I hope your visit goes well!
  • That is not uncommon. I am also 9weeks today, and my nausea is going away, and breasts are not to sore, and (tmi) constipation and bloating are going away too. This is my second pregnancy, and the same thing happened in my first. Second trimester was easy as could be, then third got hard again.

    Good luck with everything!
  • I'm 8 weeks and my nausea is deff settling down but still there. I'm not worried and it's a blessing because I threw up 3.5-8 weeks. I blew a blood vessel in my eye lol. So I am loving it :) hopefully starting early ends early.
  • My OB said MS symptoms and hormone spikes usually peak around 8 weeks and generally taper off by 12-14 weeks. Just be happy you're most likely through the worst!

  • I am 9 weeks today and my symptoms are also subsiding thank goodness!!! This is baby #4 for me :)
  • I'm 9.5 weeks and I suddenly am not tired or nauseous. I'm very scared but see doctor next week. Your words are encouraging because when I looked it up on internet most info stated 12-14 weeks was when it should calm down. Anyways I am hopeful and thanks!
  • I've been experiencing this as well. I'm still tired and I have acne all over the place. It makes me feel guilty when I complain about having good days but it's scary to think a good day could mean something's wrong. Like less hormones means less symptoms which means no baby. But I'm trying to remind myself tomorrow could be different and everything is fine. I don't see the doctor for another week and a half. Hoping to hear a heart beat. Other than a pee test my doctor didn't really do anything else to confirm it. Apparently when you're healthy and young they just wait it out haha
  • Same! First timer, 8 weeks along with symptoms seeming to subside and appetite coming back. I was getting nervous about this until I read your posts... Seems somewhat normal. US in one week!
