And it's really freaking me out! Today is 9 weeks, 2 days. I don't have the heavy, full feeling in my abdomen (and I feel like I can suck my tummy in, which I couldn't do before), I haven't been super hungry or thirsty today, I'm not peeing a lot. My boobs are still a little sore and I fell asleep on the couch mid-day today, but today is really messing with me. We don't go to the dr again until the 30th, but I am concerned the baby is or will be gone. My thyroid levels were out of whack after my first set of labs at 8 weeks and they upped my meds, but I wonder if it was too late.
I wouldn't worry too much. Symptoms come and go. I went through a really tired and bloated phase at the start of the first trimester with ds and then toward the second half of the first trimester the only reason I knew I was pg was because my pants were tight. Then some symptoms came back and some new ones made an appearance.
Doctor's office is squeezing me in tomorrow morning. I don't know why, but I just have a bad feeling. Going to try to relax tonight and not worry unnecessarily. I hope some of this worry goes away during 2nd tri?
Try to relax. I had a weird panicky moment like this around 10 weeks. They had me come in, we did an u/s and baby was perfectly fine in there. Symptoms come and go. As big as I am, if I'm laying down and really relaxed, and babygirl is asleep in there, I can legit forget I am pregnant.
It's so hard when you can't feel the baby yet! What you are feeling is normal and doesn't mean anything is wrong. Don't stress unless you need to, it's not worth it and changes nothing.
Around 19 weeks my little boy was moving a lot but when I saw the crazy flips and movements he was doing during the u/s and I couldn't feel any of it, it was def. eye opening to know I still didn't feel everything going on in there.
Thanks for not making me feel ridiculous! H has termed my constant worries 'preganoia'. I want to hug him and punch him at the same time! How is he so easy breezy?!

You're not being ridiculous at all! I think we've all been there.
I rented a Doppler to use during the first tri with both my pregnancies. It makes some people more anxious because you have to search a little harder for the HB that phase, but having it really helped sooth my worries when I felt "not pregnant".
