Anybody have fluctuating symptoms?

I need to stay off google I think hahaha. I’m 7w3d and week 4, 5 and 6 I had the sore breasts, I was just dead exhausted, intermittent mild cramping, and I had terrible food aversions. This last maybe 4 days I have slightly sore breasts, I’m tired but not exhausted, very little cramping, and the food aversions are there but again, less intense. I am freaking out thinking I’m having a missed miscarriage because of all this as I feel I should be feeling worse at this point, not better. I don’t want to feel like crap again, but at least it was reassuring you know? Haha. I don’t have an US for about 2 weeks so I’m just losing my mind 😭. It’s also my first pregnancy so I really have no idea what I’m doing!

    I lost all my symptoms for 4 days around 7.5 weeks, I was so worried, but they've come back now although not as strong as before. 😊 I've read it happens to a lot of people who had healthy pregnancies.

    Symptoms go away and come back & eventually they will go away and not come back. It’s completely normal and there is no reason to assume that feeling better means there’s something wrong.

    @tmarie0805 It was around week 7 or 8 that my symptoms went away and it scared me. They come back now and then but most days, I feel fine.

    I relate to this. I felt so good the last few days that I was worried, now I’m back to feeling like trash again. But I have a follow up question since I’m a FTM and this is all so new to me. We had our US at 8 wks and everything looked great which was wonderful and next week at 10 wks we have a genetic counseling session (I’m 40) and then I have to do a lot of bloodwork and do the NIPT kit. I was wondering if any part of that test involves something that tells you the baby is healthy? It feels so long to wait until 13 weeks for another US.

    @shoarmie99I guess your question depends on what you mean by healthy? The NIPT is going to tell you the risk of your baby having a number of chromosomal abnormalities.  My MFM doctor does the NIPT and NT scan at the same time at around 11/12 weeks.  They use the combined results to determine if there are any genetic/chromosomal issues.  So these tests would tell you if your baby is unhealthy in that sense.  *TW* the test would tell you if you are at higher risk of miscarrying or complications.  *end TW*

    @KFrob As I’m under 30, have no genetic history of trisonomy, Down syndrome, etc. my doctor’s both suggested I not bother with these tests when I asked about them so I will not be receiving either one.

    Where I live there are multiple places within 30-1hr drive that do ultrasound packages. Like, they'll take pictures of your baby in the ultrasound (in 3d also) and record the heartbeat for you and put it in a stuffed animal, etc. 😊 The place really close to me is really reasonable, like $45 for a 2d ultrasound with pictures and heartbeat recording. I think I'm gonna be bothering them at least every other week 😅

    Oh PS I had my 8 week US and baby is doing great!

    @huckleberrypie so glad you had a great US! Thanks for the tip about the ultrasound businesses - there’s one somewhat near my house. Are they totally safe?
    @KFrob thank you for the response. What I meant by healthy was actually just confirmation the baby is still alive! I hate to think like that - I’m really trying to keep my thoughts positive, but I do find myself feeling anxious having to wait 3 more weeks for the next ultrasound.

    I’ve had a only two symptoms really and it’s been nausea(only a little but I don’t vomit I just dry heave which is the worst!) and heart burn and it’s so bad especially at night I have to sit up and move positions every hour 🥺 I don’t know what to do :(

    @shoarmie99 I get that!  It's so hard to wait between ultrasounds!
