Anyone Else Feel Normal???

Lessum · 10-19-2005, 09:59 AM

Hi All,

I am 7w 2d pg and I feel surprisingly NORMAL!!! Last week I had a lot of "pulling and stretching" feeling in my abdomen and a bit of morning sickness. But this week...I feel NORMAL....very little of any of that.

Should I be worried??? I had my u/s last week on 10/13 and we saw a heartbeat of 124bpm.

Thanks
Leslie

Leslie,
Maybe you're just one of those people who is blessed with no morning sickness!! Or maybe it's yet to come....either way, I don't believe there's any reason to worry! Enjoy feeling normal! Lord knows I don't! HA!

Thanks Jen and Munchkin! Does this worry ever go away??? I am so nervous something is going to happen and I won't know...We have our first OB appt on 11/1. I will be seeing a new MD so I don't know if they will do an u/s or not. I hope so as I am leaving about 2.5 weeks after that on vacation to head home for Thanksgiving. I would like to know everything is ok...

Thanks again!
Leslie

Hello

This is my very first post and it has been so comforting to read how everyone else is coping with early pregnancy after infertility. I am about 7 1/2 weeks pregnant and waiting to have my scan on 10/26. I too have had very few signs and have been very worried. No morning sickness, sore boobs however, I am on estrogen patches so of course I believe it all has to do with that. I have been doing lots of reading and apparently it is perfectly normal to feel normal especially this early on. Many women that I spoke to said they felt little or nothing until they saw ob after 8 w. I guess the best we can do is wait and stay positive. Easier said then done. Hang in there the scan looks good and is the first sign that things should keep progressing well.

good luck!

I have no idea what normal is anymore. Trying to figure out symptoms/no symptoms is driving me NUTs. Some days I feel pretty normal. Some days I feel very bloated and my chest hurts a lot. The only big m/s symptom I have is I have heartburn/indigestion almost everynight. I wake up in the middle of the night and eat a tum or two.

I have read so many posts that m/s comes and goes and if you don't have m/s, you should feel real lucky. I feel lucky, but it scares me too.

No worries, just try and enjoy Leslie

You have a great heartbeat.

Leslie, it was about at 7 1/2 weeks that a tad of sickness set in with me. Still nothing too terrible, but I sure feel queesy now and again. So something could still set in!
