Hi I’m currently 8+3 weeks pregnant with baby no3, since I’ve hit 8 weeks all my symptoms have kind of just disappeared! I can’t remember how my last 2 pregnancies were as that was a long time ago, I’m getting worried as it’s just all gone away. I don’t really feel sick anymore, my boobs aren’t really sore now either and I’ve stopped feeling tired. is this normal?🥺

I'm 12 weeks 5 days and I did find my symptoms declined at around 8 and a half weeks, even more when I got to 11. I have no symptoms at all now I don't think, if I do they're very minor! I think it's normal for symptoms to decrease gradually but I do think symptoms come and go! That's what I found anyway! I actually made a post on here about the same thing. As long as you aren't in any pain or bleeding I'd try not to worry too much (although I know that's easier said than done) you can also message your GP or midwife (if you have one yet) x

I have got her number and my first appointment is weds but I'm just a worrier I can't stop🥺 I'm going away today for a night with my husband for our anniversary but the worry is just taking over I just feel upset I don't want anything to be wrong😭 I've had 2 miscarriages in the past but I did have bleeding I also had early nhs scans with my other 2 so it's hard not seeing this little one yet.

Oh I totally get that. The worry is awful, especially in the first few weeks. I wouldn't wish it on anyone!

I've had previous losses before and was offered an early scan, it might be worth asking your midwife on Wednesday? Could you book a private scan just to check everything and put your mind at ease?

Please please try and enjoy your trip with your husband. I know it's not easy and I was the same as tou, I just couldn't focus on anything else other than the worry. I'm sure everything will be fine for you but what will be will be. Worrying won't change the outcome no matter what it may be. That's what I had to tell myself daily! X

Yes, it's quite normal for symptoms to fluctuate! I suspect you'll start feeling rough again in a few days perhaps!

Congratulations on your pregnancy

I know it sounds silly but can I book an early scan anywhere? Does it have to be local to where I am? As there is places I can book today on the way up to where I'm travelling?

I had one in Liverpool and I'm in Manchester so I think it's fine!

This has happened to me in every pregnancy - symptoms have just randomly stopped for a few days around 7/8 weeks. But it's all been fine. So I would say definitely normal. GL x
