Symptoms easing around 9 weeks?

[Lingonberry]

Hi

I'm 9+2 today, and have found the past couple of days I've felt increasingly more human, wondering if this was normal? From 5/6 weeks I've had awful nausea, intense food/smell aversions, breathlessness and extreme exhaustion - it was completely debilitating, and I got to the point daily where I was crying because I felt so useless, hated the smell of my house so much, and I was seriously questioning my ability to cope (I already have 2 children).

The past 2 days have been much easier - still have nausea and tiredness and sore humongous breasts ( - still feeding my 2.5yr old too, owwy!), increased need to wee etc, however it all seems much more manageable.. I've spent the past 3 weeks wishing I felt better, and now I do I'm feeling nervous about it, typical! Wondering if anyone else experienced similar? Thanks

Yep was definitely normal for me, and I noticed it around 9 weeks too. I think the placenta starts developing and taking over a few things from 8-9 weeks onwards, and by 12 weeks it's pretty much doing it all, so it makes sense!

That's good to hear! Thanks for the reassurance ��

This is happening to me too, I am 9w 3d today so we are basically the same!
I'm so glad the sickness has gone !!!

Hi sunshinekim It does make such a huge difference when the sickness goes! Have you found you're showing already btw? I'm really struggling to hide my tummy atm!
