Not feeling too pregnant...

jenhutch22 · April 2016

Hi December Mommas

!
I'm just a few days into my 7th week and I'm not really feeling too "pregnant". I started out with some nausea, tender breast, and exhaustion. Now I'm still experiencing some exhaustion and acne

, but other than that not much. I don't want to complain I'm grateful for such a peaceful start, but I guess I'm just wondering how things are going for the rest of you ladies...
My first prenatal visit isn't until next Tuesday, so the waiting game is in full effect. Have a great day and happy Wednesday!

There are many ladies who are SYMPTOM FREE currently. A thread was even made so everyone could see and reach out to each other. I recommend hoping over to that thread. It might bring you some peace of mind that you are not alone.

Some ladies experience every symptom imaginable, while some don't ever experience any of them. At this point it can be scary not knowing what is going on with LO or your body. Join in the other discussion, and maybe find a hobby that can help take your mind off of it.

Happy Wednesday!

I'm honestly very much like you, although I'm at 5+3, so it's still early for me. I've been fortunate that so far I've avoided morning sickness, but around the same time each day I get tired. My boobs don't really hurt until the end of the day. I did have bloat and a little acne, but since I've talked to my doctor I've been able to alleviate those things and I'm pretty much my normal self. The doctor said that I'm perfectly normal and to just keep up with what I've been doing. Hope this helps!

I'm right there too. I was just thinking that I actually feel pretty good this week so far! I'm 7+2 today and my symptoms so far are exhaustion by the end of the work day, bloating worse than I could have imagined and acne. From the sounds of it, I've been lucky so far but I realize that can change any day! I have my appointment on Friday so hopefully I can put my mind at ease by this weekend!

editing to add: heartburn. Holy is this heartburn kicking my butt. How could I have forgotten about the heartburn?!

I've been dealing with this too. This is my second pregnancy, first was a missed miscarriage. My symptoms so far had been terrible nausea (no vomiting), slight cramps (like round ligament pain), heartburn, and very sore boobs. My boobs are tender but not as sore as they were. My nausea, cramps, and heartburn have all lightened up. I'm worried that I'll have another missed miscarriage, my first doctor's appointment isn't until May 20th. I wish I was having one soon to put my mind at ease.

The other day I had terrible, terrible heartburn. But now it's gone. I have been eating smaller meals and maybe that's what did it? Weird for sure.

Everyone's pregnancy is different and symptoms can come and go throughout. I wouldn't read too much into it because soon enough you will feel VERY pregnant.

Same here, 6 weeks 3 days. Everyone asks me everyday how I'm feeling, aka have I puked yet. Nope. Just tired. My first appointment isn't until 5/5.

sheshae · April 2016

@brittnic86 I'm the same way and my first appt is on 5/5! This wait feels like forever.

hopefullatheart · April 2016

I'm at 5+5 and the only thing as far as symptoms go are slightly sore breast. Besides that I just feel like i'm PMSing, very mild cramping and spotting. I have my first appointment on 4/26 and am sooo excited! Although I feel a little timid cause it's still so early.

brittnic86 · April 2016

@sheshae right!? Two more weeks

cmireles · April 2016

I'm also just a little over 7 weeks and going through the same thing. Early on I had some intense symptoms, but they've since minimized and mostly I just struggle with feeling exhausted all the time and acne breakouts. I'm not sure if my body is just adjusting faster that it was at week 5, but my first appointment is next week at 8+1 - for now just happy the nausea, heartburn, and cramping have taken a break

jenhutch22 · April 2016

My first appt is 4/26 too!! Check back in after your appointment if you get a chance I'd love to hear how your appointment goes.

I'm only 5 weeks tomorrow and nothing really yet. I'm trying to remember 3 years ago when I was pregnant with DS, but it's hard. I didn't have much nausea then but I think it was weeks 8-10 that were the worst. I know I've done this before, but I forgot how weird it feels to know you are pregnant, but not feel it, look it or really talk to anyone about it. Just lots of waiting for appts, symptoms and a bump!
