2nd trimester limbo...

[socktastic]

Anyone else had it? 16 weeks with number 1 and struggling to believe I'm still pregnant. Scan was nearly 5 weeks ago and sicky feeling has abated slightly although not totally. Still constipated, sore boobs, less moody and prone to burst into tears.
I've got a wee hardening in my tummy and trousers are tight.
BUT
none of this is still enough to convince me I'm pregnant!
Tell me I'm being an idiot.

You're not alone - I am 17 weeks with DC3 and feel the same. I hate this time, when symptoms are fading, scan was weeks ago but not feeling the baby move yet. It just makes it feel unreal and I'm constantly worrying there's a problem with the baby. Can't wait for my next scan!

I felt like this with my other 2 as well. It almost makes me want the morning sickness back just so I have something tangible to make me believe there is a baby in there!

Yup, I'm there too at 17 weeks. Just as worried (if not more!) about 20 weeks scan than 12 week one, it seems like such a long time ago. I hope I can relax after I get past the halfway point!

Nice to know I'm not alone! Of course today after posting that I've felt like utter crap! I think once I get some kicks from the wee one I'll be happier!

17+5 and exactly the same here. I'm almost grateful for the beginnings of pelvis pain and achey under-bump muscles because they at least suggest something real is happening.
