7+4 symptoms reassurance needed

I’m 7+4 today. To date everything has looked good. Had a bit of nausea, boobs swollen and trousers now too tight to do up however this week I’ve noticed that the symptoms seem to have eased off.

Boobs are still swollen but not quite as sore and I woke up this morning feeling good rather than sick.

I haven’t felt as tired as I expected either although that could be because I cut out caffeine years ago so not having to suffer that double whammy.

I’m really worried about something going wrong (higher chance as I’m 41) and have probably googled too much so well aware that symptoms going can be a sign of mmc. So really looking for some reassurance as to if this is normal.

Hey my symptoms didn’t kick in until 8+ so maybe you’re having a good day and they will come back. Also every body is so different maybe you’re one of the lucky ones! Try not to worry easier said than done. Enjoy for symptom free for the moment 🤭

Thank you snoopy. I think I’m going to be on tenterhooks until the dating scan at this rate!

You'll get days like that! But take them and relish in them, then tomorrow you'll feel like you were hit with a tone of bricks, it does get better though! x

I had this as well, I would be all puffy and swollen one day and then ok the next.
I was so nervous about it that I booked an early scan privately (it cost €99 here in Ireland) and it put my mind to rest. I had the scan at 8+3

All was fine thankfully and I am sure you are too.

Dont worry at all, I had this, i didnt find out i was pregnant until 6 weeks and had sore boobs, bloated feeling and hot flushes and by 10 weeks I felt no symptoms at all. I spent the entire time until my scan worrying but then everything was fine. I never had any sickness at all and i was convinced this was a bad thing at the start but soon realised I was lucky!🙈 Don't worry the symptoms will soon be back! Good luck❤

My symptoms started at week 6, however I didn't get sore boobs or anything.. I had a hangover feeling every morning where my whole body would be weak and I had a headache whenever I woke up and found it hard to lift my head off the pillow. I had slight sickness feelings but didn't actually be sick and I had cramping that whole week (felt like I was due my period)
However that only lasted that week and now I'm nearly 10 weeks and all symptoms have disappeared. I was concerned at first but apparently it's normal for them to just suddenly stop 🤷🏼‍♀️
