So yesterday I was feeling lousy - nauseous and exhausted - and it was worse the day before. Today, I feel great! I am even eating vegetables (which have not been the least appealing of late). With my appointment on friday for a 10 week u/s this is fueling the fires of my anxiety. I mean, once I came to terms with NOT feeling sick a few weeks ago I was gratified to start feeling ill... but then it should STAY that way, not fluctuate. What can a woman do to relax?

I wish my symptoms would just *&^#* remain exactly the same so I can try and gather my happy thoughts together for more than a day at a time. Sigh.

Me too Shannon!! I haven't had m/s at all but have been tired, sore bbs, strong sense of smell, and that's it. This past week, bbs are sore on and off; I'm starting to get a little bit of energy back. So I too was already freaking out early this week (thank goodness I have my 10 w u/s Friday too!!).

One day, I felt really bloated & yucky and thought I might get sick. I was excited!!! How demented does that sound??!! lol I thought, "FINALLY, sickness is setting in!!"

Friday is such a loooooooong ways away!!!

Hang in there!

Shannon-
I feel the same way. There are some mornings I wake up praying to the porcelain god and others where I feel fine. Some days I am exhausted other nights I make it to 10:00 without even a nap. I guess it is normal...but I worry so much on the days I feel better that I don't get to enjoy them. I can't wait for both my 10 week appt. and first trimester to be over!

Shannon - Are you in my mind?!?!?! LOL You often seem to have posts about topics that I've been thinking about. Seriously, I have been thinking this exact same thing this week. One day I'm puking my guts out just wanting to die for feeling so bad, the next day I'm feeling slighter better but then sicken myself with worry, then the next day the puking is back, then the next day it's marginally better but with worries, & on & on. I think this is just the burden we TTAMC-grads carry.

Good luck.
