BTDT - preggos - Symptoms question!

kelbert · #1 August 3rd, 2011, 09:52 AM

I have been all over Dr. Google and I need to stop. I am not really feeling any symptoms, except from all the meds I am pumping into my body from IVF. Progesterone suppositories, PIO shot, estrogen, prenatals, calcium supplement and a baby aspirin.

I feel too normal! I know its early. I wouldn't even be considered at 4 weeks yet. I have a little bit of a stuffy nose, but that could be from anything.

Anyone have some encouraging words?!

Good luck, I hope this is it for you!!!

I didn't have any symptoms till I was about 9 weeks pregnant with both of my pregnancies. It's really normal not to feel anything for awhile. It makes it even more nerve racking. I kept taking HPT's just to see the line get darker because I didn't believe I was pregnant. Please keep us posted

Kelli, my only symptoms were a stuffy nose (I thought I had a cold or something) and period-like cramps (I thought for sure AF was coming). I never got m/s the entire pregnancy. Around 12 weeks or so I got gaggy (is that a word) when I brushed my teeth. I never had nausea or any typical preggo symptoms...which always made me so nervous. Actually, my only "symptom" was that I was starving from like week 8 until...well, I'm still starving all the time!

My cousin is due Oct 5 and she had zero symptoms, too!

You'll probably get so sick of hearing that every pregnancy is different but it's true!

i agree, you're so early. I felt great until about week 6 and it comes and goes...

i'm sure you'll start feeling something soon...and then you'll be counting the days til you feel better!

Thank you so much ladies for the replies! It really makes me feel a lot better. With the m/c I had a few symptoms and then they just went away and it all ended. So of course I am nervous. But this one has been SO different... especially the way it happened

Thank you guys again!!!

And be prepared.. I ask lots of questions

At 4 weeks all I felt was cramping and I kept thinking AF was coming. My sore bbs didn't really kick in until 7 weeks I think and I still haven't really had m/s. I'll get nauseated every now and then if I don't snack regularly but that's about it. I feel pretty normal still too.

Like Kate, I really didn't have symptoms until about 6 weeks, except being tired. That didn't start until the middle of my 4th week or so though.

I didn't have any symptoms...no sore boobs, no morning sickness, nothing...and I have a healthy 14 month old. Symptomless is the BOMB!

I wouldn't complain about that!!

Thanks again ladies! Still just a little bit of cramping.. not much at all. Guess we will see!

ditto. I had NO symptoms for a while. The nausea came much later, and I remember thinking that I wouldn't have had a clue that I was pregnant if I wasn't tracking my cycles and testing.

I didn't have any symptoms until I was around 8 weeks...maybe further along than that I think...I was begging for a little MS or something...haha. I honestly don't even know why I took a test because I just knew I was getting AF...I was even spotting and everything. I always felt more pregnant all the cycles that I wasn't than I did when I actually got pregnant...lol. Enjoy it while it lasts!! lol I felt terrible around 7-8 months until I delivered!
Hopefully you feel great throughout your entire pregnancy though =) That would be great!

Congrats!! =)

I dont think that I had any symptoms until at least 9 weeks. I was so sure that our IVF had failed because of that. Hopefully you will be one of the lucky ones who doesn't have a lot of pg symptoms!

kelbert · #13 August 7th, 2011, 03:29 PM

Thanks again for the info ladies

We just got back from the beach and I am feeling the same which is good I think! Beta is tuesday!

With Darcy the only thing I was really feeling was period like cramps. I don't remember exactly when I started to really feel symptoms. If it wasn't for the nurse telling me to test I don't think it would have actually crossed my mind.

This time though it was hard to tell if it was symptoms or I was just exhausted with a high needs 3 month old lol.
