I'm 9 weeks and the past few weeks have suffered terribly with tiredness and feeling sick although luckily I never was, just had to eat more. I had last week off work as holiday and spent most of it feeling yuck! So much so I wondered how I would cope with working this week.
However, I'm back to work and feeling great, energy levels are normal and I'm getting in a flap about how great I'm feeling. We don't have our scan til 3 weeks time, I possibly do suspect I could be further along (by a month )as I have a little bump already but midwife wasn't concerned, just said wait til the scan and they will date u then.
Please someone tell me its normal to feel like this, so scared of a mmc as its took so so long to get this far, many years of ttc xx

Why not call the EPU & explain your pregnancy symptoms appear to have disappeared & ask if you could have a scan.

With 2 of my pregnancies i hardly had any symptoms by 9 weeks... The 'babies' are 21 & 8 now!

I have had a mmc but no loss of symptoms.

Take care. Call your EPU, even if it just gives you peace of mind.
Let us know how you get on.

It's normal for symptoms to ease off, they may come back if you're unlucky! It's nothing to panic about if you're having no other problems.

I prob was a bit hasty or spoke too soon putting this thread up. I've just got in from work and feel like I've been hit by a bus. Going for a lie down, thankyou for your comments tho. I doubt if I would get an early scan, I pushed and pushed at midwife appointment and she said they are very strict so I don't think there's much point.
Like I say I reckon it was just a good spell because now I feel terrible!! Xx
