Symptoms at 8 weeks..

[coruscating17]

Just to ease my paranoia I was just wondering how the rest of you at the 8 week mark feel? I'm still quite tired most of the time and could sleep for 12 hours but not as shattered as I was. Have horrible taste in my mouth most of the day..not metallic just yucky. Don't have much of an appetite still but better than it was last few weeks..I can stomach most foods now. Little bit moody and short-tempered with OH :-/ But other than that I am definitely feeling better than last few weeks and it's worrying me. I know symptoms can come and go and there's not much point in comparing wirh other people but guess I just need some reassurance! OH has said no to another scan before week 12 as it won't change outcome..men just don't get it! Thanks ladies xx

I've got Hyperemesis so I had constant nausea and vomiting at 8 weeks

At 8 weeks i could have slept for england and felt constantly sick from around 7 weeks which prompted me to do a test x

My symptoms staring easing off from about 8 weeks, now I have heartburn but not everyday and I'm not nearly as tired as I used to be, heard my babies heartbeat on a fetal Doppler so I know all is well its just my placenta taking over now and I'm feeling alot better xx

At 8 weeks all I did was sleep so dont worry xx

im always sleepy!

but have some sort of sleep disorder (have for ages) so i cant sleep even when im really tired

i can stomach some foods, but get full very easily, like i can only manage 1/4 of a meal.
and morning sickness randomly appears.

try not to worry hun

Ive not had any sickness yet (morning or evening ) feeling normal i keep forgetting i'm pregrant..

Last week i did have sore breasts, but a few days ago this soreness has gone.. That scares me a bit.

Iam beginning to feel something is wrong but ive been told not to panic.

I just want my scan date to arrive... to see if everything is ok.

Im preparing myself for the worse at that scan I have to look at this from both sides iam 42..

No cramps or bleeding.

Me too apart from the complete tiredness that hits me from 7.30pm!

My symptoms eased off at 8 weeks and we had our scan last week and baby was alive and kicking! My beasts became less sore and I was less sick too. To be honest I feel pretty normal apart from the tiredness! Oh and the immense hunger! Try not to worry, symptoms easing off isn't usually a bad thing xxxx

I'm about 8 weeks still incredibly tired, sore boobs, getting some pains that feel like pulling accross stomach and still feel really sick throughout the day but mostly at night. Im also eating more often nut much smaller portions - seems to help the sickness.

I have had days where i feel better than others and I panic and then usually a few hours later I feel rubbish again lol.

It's hard to know whether I'm just getting used to the symptoms and forgetting what normal feels like?! I could still sleep for HOURS and still don't really fancy any foods (except chocolate cake!) but can eat when something is put in front of me. My boobs hurt a bit when I prod them and seem to get bigger through the day, but are back to normal again every morning. Think I'd feel more relaxed if my first pregnancy hadn't been a mc, but I guess I won't really know until my 12 weeks scan! Have my booking in appt 19th Dec so wondering if I can ask the midwife to listen for the heartbeat? I think I'll be just over 10 weeks then so will this be possible? Would put my mind at rest over Christmas!!
