8 weeks and symptoms dissappeared

I've been having really bad nausea and sore boobs, then I've hit 8 weeks and bam! they've both gone.

Anything to be worried about??

The bloat is still real and I'm exhausted still, no bleeding or cramps to take note of... But could this be a mmc? Or is it normal?

I know people's pregnancy's are different, but this is Baby #1 for us so I'm not sure at each point what is normal or not...

Have you got your booking appointment yet? Maybe speak to your midwife? Or see if you would be eligible to have a scan at your EPU? They sometimes offer reassurance scans at 8 weeks, I have one a week on Friday
hope everything's fine and you're just getting a break from the sickness

Very common OP. I had this in all of my pregnancies! Your symptoms can completely stop between weeks 7-9 and then they come rushing back with a vengeance (sorry). They will return! Mine would come charging back around week 10 and finally subside by week 14, every single time. Enjoy the breather!

If you feel concerned though, ask your GP to refer you to the EPU for a scan but don't be surprised if you don't get a referral because you actually don't have symptoms of a miscarriage in their eyes. Still, it's your body, your baby and reassurance is priceless and a scan will offer you this.

Best of luck!

@MotherAughra my booking scan is on Monday when I'm 9 weeks. I'm not sure if it's just because I slept a lot recently and so am really well rested... Im going to keep an eye on it today and make a decision as to whether to book a private scan. I think this may also just be my anxiety fuelled by a weird comment made by my boss yesterday (over me not yet having proof that I'm pregnant)... Im hopeful it's mind over matter x

@TheVanguardSix thanks for your reassurance, it's always good to hear from other people who have already been through this. I'm just a really anxious person and always focus on the worst case scenario!! Oh how the non-overthinkers must enjoy life!!! x

@newlymarried2019 oh you posted on my post about that!

Easier said than done but try not to worry too much, symptoms seem to do strange things as the start

Hope you've been okay today
