Shivery at 9 wks

[Youzanne]

Hi all,

I’m 9 wks pregnant and still feel shivery at certain points of the day, often with a headache. Does anyone else experience this? I keep wondering if I’m coming down with something but wondering now if it’s just my own symptoms.

I had a scan two weeks ago and all was fine, I could see heartbeat etc.

Just on edge now waiting for my 12 wk scan

Many thanks in advance xx

I was like this for the first 12 weeks!!! Think it's something to do with hormones. Felt like I was coming down with something but never did ha I'm 21 weeks now!

Think its normal. Are you eating well? Could be blood sugar dropping.


I remember feeling cold mainly at night in first trimester. Was going to bed with socks and a light jumper.

I've been shivers almost the whole pregnancy and I'm 39 weeks currently. I did however come down with a cold for 6 weeks but I was incredibly ill in the beginning anyway so it may not have been pregnancy related that cold...

@Youzanne I was like that too absolutely freezing but like other ladies have put think it's due to hormones and blood sugar dropping. Not too long till your 12 week Scan!! xx
