So I am going to try to make a long story short but I am sorry if it is long. LOL
So I am currently 7 weeks pregnant and I went in on Wed for an ultrasound and they saw a good strong heartbeat. Yay! Well, I wish it were that simple for me to be excited but it just is not. It took us 6 years off infertility treatments to get pregnant with my daughter (2 1/2) and when I was pregnant during the first trimester I wasn't really sick. I was tired all the time and I knew I couldn't eat certain foods but other than that it was fine. Then came the 2nd trimester and I was sick the remainder of my pregnancy. Ok, so last year we decided to start TTC and in April I found out I was pregnant. Yay! That was super fast compared to what we thought it would take given our history. Well I went in at 6 1/2 weeks and they saw a good strong heartbeat. I went back in at 13 weeks for some other sort of ultrasound to check for something cant quite remember. Anyways, sadly as they were doing the ultrasound, the tech asked me how far along I was and I told her 13 weeks, she excused herself and the doctor cam in and told me that there was no heartbeat. They baby had died the week before. Ok, so skip ahead to January of that next year(this January) I found out I was pregnant and 2 days later miscarried the baby. And then just this last July I found out I was pregnant and after having a blood test done, I miscarried that baby. The doctor decided based on me having 3 miscarriages they would run a bunch of test and try to figure out what was causing the miscarriages. So after all was said and done, they found that I had elevated ANA levels. After meeting with a specialist they determined that it was just elevated and no other condition was going on. YAY! Well, then 3 weeks ago I was concerned that I hadn't had a period since the miscarriage in July and I called the doctor. They said take a pregnancy test and if it is negative they would give me medicine to bring on a period. Well low and behold I was pregnant. With all 3 of the miscarriages I was sicker than a dog for the time I was pregnant.
Ok, so on to my question. A couple days after finding out I was pregnant I started to get every pregnancy symptom known to man. I haven't been able to get out of bed hardly and I have been horribly sick. Well, then on Thursday, I woke up feeling ok not great but ok and throughout the day most of the symptoms have been mild. And the same thing yesterday. Well today I wok up feeling great, like I could run a marathon. I haven't had any bleeding or spotting and I have had some mild discomforts and cramps but not like when I was having a miscarriage. I can not seem to get the thought out of my mind that maybe I lost the baby and I just haven't started with the bleeding or cramping. Did any of you have any like that were you were so sick for a couple weeks and then your symptoms tapered away. Granted, I still am more hungry then normal and my boobs are huge and tender not as sore as they have been.
I am just hoping everything is ok and that I dont lose this baby too. I dont think I can go through that again. Sorry this was so long. I just wanted to know if any of you had something similar.
