i have no idea how i am going to survive the next 5 weeks. so tuesday and wednesday i had super bad MS, vomiting and eveything. then today i feel OK. just slightly queasy, but no biggie. so now i am upset. last time my symptoms disapeared at 9 weeks and that is how i knew it was not good.

and this is awful.....but i feel like i am just waiting to MC. i just can't believe that this will end with me having a baby.

my US is a week from friday......how am i going to survive the first timerser?

Hi Stephanie, I was just thinking about you, wondering how you were doing.

Stephanie,

It is normal for m/s to be worse on some days than others. Mine has been that way. There are some days I wake up and have to run to the bathroom and others, like today, where I feel fine and just slightly nauseous here and there. The one symptom that has not gone away is sore bbs. But I don't know if that is the same for everyone. So, on those days I tend to be poking at myself to just make sure. I can't wait until I can feel the baby and start showing so this pregnancy feels real!

Hey Stephanie,


I was worrying about the same things this morning. I still have my sore bb's, but some days are worse than others. Last week, I had the feeling that m/s would be coming on (watering mouth, a little nausea) but nothing came on full stream. So now I am worried.

Symptoms come and go which isn't all that reassuring when you want a sign that everything is ok, but it seems like most of us on here have felt the exact same way.

Oh Stephanie!! (((HUGS))) I just HATE the 1st Trimester stress! It's so hard to stay sane, to not anticipate another loss. Hang in there sweetie...we are here to get you through it!

(((STEPHANIE)))


To me this is one of the saddest things about a m/c - it does diminish some of the joy (and carefreeness) of being pg the next time.

Teri, you are absolutely right about the worrying continuing even after the babes are born, wanting to sneak in to check on them during the night (once they start sleeping longer periods during the night), etc.

thank you all for your encouragement! and for sharing your stories about symptoms coming and going. your words really mean alot to me and do help. my mantra has been one week at a time, and that is mostly working, but the doubt creeps in. i wish we could all be simply blissful about being preg and not so worried all of the time.

i have no idea what i would do if i did not have a place to express these feelings. THANK YOU!
