It seems that around 10am all sensations of pregnancy disappear. I feel thinner. My breasts aren't sore AT ALL. I just don't feel pregnant anymore.
This morning I just couldn't let go of that heavy feeling of discouragement and pessimism. I wanted to cry. I convinced myself that the embryo was no longer growing, that I was not really pregnant.
It is 10am. F persuaded me to go out and get another pregnancy test. Which I did. And was terrified.
Thankfully it was still positive. The darkest line yet. But the test only confirmed the the thing that is making this wait so long and difficult. We won't really know anything until we can see with our eyes that the embryo is doing okay. That won't be until next Friday.
Deep Breaths.

Your hormone levels haven't freaked out yet, so try not to worry about it! Some lucky people NEVER feel pregnancy symptoms. I started getting horridly nauseous (and puking) at 6w4d - felt perfect before that. Everyone and every pregnancy are different - and remember you don't need to feel like shit to have a healthy little baby growing in there. :) Hang in there hon!!
I can relate to this one!! I'd love it sit back and not worry about anything. Just be blissfully pregnant... I'm pretty sure that isn't something I can do. Maybe after the ultrasound it will be easier?!?
I had an ultrasound three days ago and I already have to convince myself again that I'm still pregnant. I wish it was easier to believe after all this time that it could be true. Symptoms definitely come and go. Sending lots of good vibes your way for your little embryo.
I have heard that symptoms can come and go intermittently, but that would make me freak out too. I dont think it ever gets easier, in terms of worry, but hopefully that sono will make you feel a whole lot better :)
The time between betas and our first ultrasound was so nerve-racking. I took a pregnancy test every single day until our first ultrasound. In the early weeks of pregnancy, I had virtually no symptoms whatsoever, so the tests were a daily reassurance that our little one was still healthily growing away. Wishing you the best and that all goes well with your first ultrasound! :)
relish in this right now, because you'll be hanging your head in the toilet soon enough (and loving every minute of it, too, if you are anything like me--)
When's the ultrasound?
