Pregnancy

7 weeks pregnant - maybe. How did you feel at 7 weeks?

I'm pregnant again according to the tests. I've had 4 miscarriages in a row - at 10 weeks, 11 weeks, and two at six weeks. I also had two children before those miscarriages.

I'm getting a scan next Friday and trying not to get my hopes up. I think I have a 50% chance of the pregnancy being successful because of the miscarriages.

I don't feel really pregnant. I've had a few mornings of feeling briefly sick in the mornings- almost throwing up. On my two successful pregnancies I was very sick until about 14 weeks.

Also I don't have a bump - maybe by stomach is slightly bigger- I'm not sure if I'm imagining it.

Everything crossed for you. Im 8+4, had a scan yesterday which showed all ok and have had no sickness or queasiness at all. Only symptoms I have had are:
Going off coffee
Waking up in the night for a wee
Tiredness (but I have a 3 year old which would account for this!)
If I hadn't done tests and had a scan I wouldn't have realised I was pregnant I don't think.

Best of luck [Flowers]

7 weeks you won't even slightly have a bump as your uterus is still pretty much the same size so don't worry about that. I'm 19 weeks and only just about getting one.

With my son I was hardly ever sick. I felt nauseous up until about 6 weeks then it all stopped. Symptoms pretty much went (apart from sore nipples) until I was about 25 weeks then the heartburn, sickness etc started again.

With this baby (a girl) I feel sick all the time even at 19 weeks. I could cough or think of something disgusting and I will throw up. I've lost 10lbs due to sickness and not wanting to eat.

Have you got one of each sex already? Or are they both boys/girls? Some people say gender effects the symptoms you will have in pregnancy, I thought it was an old wives tale until I had this baby! Maybe your having the opposite sex than what you had before? I'm sure all is fine anyway providing you have no bleeding or sereve pain then I would remain hopeful until you have the scan.

So sorry to hear about your miscarriages Flowers

I had an early scan last week at 7+6 which went well, I've been feeling very sick from getting up to going to bed every day, very tired, totally gone off chocolate (sob!) and hot drinks, weird dreams. They come and go so some days I feel OK.

However when I was at this stage with my DD I don't think I had any symptoms! Definitely not to this extent so I think each pregnancy is different.

Wishing you the best of luck xx

No bleeding

I do feel tired - but hard to know if I'm imagining it.

My appetite is strange - I always want to eat something but can never work out what it is that I want.

At 7 weeks I felt tired, more so than usual... everything else was the same as it was before

I was tired and occasionally nauseous on the odd day, but otherwise normal. Didn't start getting a bump until 14 weeks-ish.

Actually, now I think about it, I didn't really get any nausea until 8/9 weeks, which lasted about 3 weeks. Think I got off relatively lightly!

A bit sick with DS1, tired, quite stroppy. Terribly sick and very tired with ds2. Not sick or anything else with ds3. I had a pregnancy before ds1 and at 7 weeks I was awfully sick and very, very emotional. It varies so much, not only between women but between pregnancies.
