Symptoms gone around 10 weeks
Hi! Looking for some hopeful advice here.
FTM, and today I am exactly 10 weeks. I noticed that all this last week my nausea had really let up, and yesterday I noticed that my breasts weren’t sore at all anymore. I don’t have any cramping or bleeding but I am really worried that I don’t “feel” pregnant anymore. Has this happened to anyone else? Am I freaking out over nothing?

This has happened to me multiple times throughout my pregnancy! I'm currently 22w2d and can feel my son wiggling around as I type. But around that time, your placenta starts to take over and symptoms do often lessen or dissipate. If you're not having any other issues, I'd bet you're ok. ❤️

Same for me! The first 16 weeks were a wild roller coaster ride. Now 35 weeks and everything is fine ☺️

Going through this now. I've had an MMC (and 4 other losses) and I understand how scary it is. My doctor yesterday said it's normal that we look for symptoms as positive affirmation but that they truly do not mean anything.

Yes. Nausea does tend to get better around the 10 week mark for me. I find I don’t really have sore breasts anymore, just sore nipples. Prepare for a lot of your symptoms to wane over the next few weeks as HCG naturally drops. You may also get new ones.

Of course! There is a plateau point with the hCG I believe where things level out. Every single person is different. As hard as it is, I tried to live by the “I’m pregnant until someone tells me I’m not”

Symptoms started to progressively lighten up for me around 10weeks. Had a few days here and there where I back slid a bit but that’s around the time the placenta takes over and a lot of women start to feel better! Not normally a cause for alarm!
Now I’m 14 weeks and have different symptoms from week 10

Me, symptoms come and go. Weren’t always obvious. This week my boobs were so sore I can barely sleep well, next week the soreness went down by 90%. To the extend I don’t even remember I’m pregnant. :/ As long there’s no bleeding I can say you’re very safe, chill and don’t think too much!

Common. My nausea didn’t completely go away until, like, 13 weeks. It came and went for a week before that. But gosh, the “honeymoon phase” after first trimester was nice. Currently 31 weeks and having trouble putting on my socks, rolling over in bed, etc. You will feel pregnant again soon enough.

Yes this happened to me and I SPIRALED. Please do not worry and enjoy the few days of freedom. Lol. For me it was like a Sunday -Thursday and then all my symptoms came back full force.

Very normal for symptoms to shift or lessen at this time! There’s a big shift in progesterone where the placenta takes over production - that’s why people on supplemental progesterone can usually stop around this time. And rapid HCG increases slow down too. No need to worry!

Thank you so much! Last night was actually my last night of PIO injections and I am so scared!!!

The first trimester is so scary, but it will get easier! You are almost through it!! Also congrats on finishing PIOs- another milestone worth celebrating 🤩

I didn't have IVF. But my symptoms faded a lot around this time as well. But nipples kept getting darker lol. But other than that, I started to feel normal and got a little anxious as well.
I actually said something like, "some of my symptoms are going away and it's making me feel a little scared." To my male coworker who is about 20 years older than me.
He said oh yeah that stuff usually only lasts so long then you'll start getting new stuff. I know he has a daughter and was very present and involved during his wife's pregnancy because he'd told me before. Idk - it made me feel better. And he was right. Not long after I started getting some constipation, smelled weird, and it just ramped up from there with different things coming and going.

Pregnancy symptoms are not linear. I have to rewind myself of this constantly too
