since i turned 8 weeks my boobs arent as sore but i still get the cramps

even though i had the scan at 7 weeks showing HB i keep worrying

is anyone else having symptoms slack off around the 8 week mark?

Yup, my boobs are no where near as sore, actually they're barely sore at all! although my MS has taken over my life. I think it's normal for symptoms to slack as your body is getting used to all the crazy hormone activity.

Yeup! Am bouncing around now fully of energy, no sore BB's, eating everything as normal, skin is now all clear etc. Cramping is still there in the evening but that's it. Enjoy it whilst you can before back ache, sore legs, tired feet etc soon start to kick in!

wish i could be as postive as you lol, i go on holiday tomoz for a week! so nervous something will go wrong over there xx

Don't worry hun, I'm off to Switzerland in less than 2 weeks and am paranoid too that something will happen whilst we're there and worried about the cost of the medical care if it does, lol. Even though I have the max insurance I can possibly have!

Don't worry ok, enjoy your holiday and just think about all those women over the years who have got to your point without even knowing they were expecting and all the things they've done etc. My mum didn't find out until she was 10 weeks with me and was in Greece on a girly/drinking holiday! I was a 9lb'er

You'll be fine, it's just because you know from such an early stage now, it causes more anxiety.

Have a lovely time and every time you start to worry about a niggly feeling etc, write it down and then just report back on it when you get back. What I'd do is if you get a cramp, write it down, then the next day, see if you've still got it, or get it again at the same time. If you don't then that's good, it's just random..if you do and it feels the same as the previous day, then just keep saying to yourself it's now just normal.

I want to hear all about it when you get back and I want to hear that you're feeling more positive ok?

thankyou for the support im sure once im on holiday ill naturally learn to relax but thinking about it sends me crazy lol, its just all these different sensations i get, i suppose if i didnt have anything i would be worrying about not feeling things, so while i have it , i need to take it as a good sign otherwise ill crack up lol!

i will deffo chill out and make the best of a peaceful holiday with my boyfriend! thanks and i will deffo be speaking to you when im home lol xx

Make sure you do ok! Enjoy every minute and keep thinking of all the nice things that are coming your way..summer baby..sunbathing to help get rid of the stretch marks, pretty summer maternity clothes, celebratory BBQs etc.

I'll speak to you when you get back but I want you to promise me that every time you feel anxious, you'll take some deep breaths and think "now what would the others say on Baby and Bump..oh yes, that it's normal" ok? Take care, xxx
