Feeling thankful...but slightly guilty that it's going so well

[Kantny09]

So I have so many confused feelings. DH and I tried for 3 years and suffered two losses before this pregnancy. It was a great struggle and there were many tears. Now that I am officially in my second trimester...according to all sources since some said 12 weeks and others didn't say until 14 lol...I can't help but almost feel guilty that this pregnancy is going so smoothly. I mean even in the first trimester I didn't have that much morning sickness. Nausea here and there and I got sick maybe once a day for a couple weeks. But each time it passed quickly and was pretty much gone after week 9.

Now I feel great. No sickness...not many cravings...I am not a hormonal monster...my boobs don't ache. Nothing. I feel perfectly normal with the exception of my growing bump! Sometimes I think I was just expecting more of a struggle since it was so hard getting here...but other times I feel so incredibly lucky and almost like this is my reward for the previous hard times...and then other times I am worried that this is some kind of "calm before the storm", like no way things are going to be this good forever so something bad must be in the works.

I try not to worry about things as much as I can. I had an appointment this past Monday and the heartbeat was perfect and my doctor said she had no complaints for me and I go in for our gender scan on the 22nd so everything seems to be going fine.

I guess after everything I just wasn't expecting it to be this easy. I don't know. Anyway, I think I just wanted to get all these feelings out instead of just continuing to mull over them in my mind!

I'm the same as you. Took us 7half years to get here with one miscarriage in 2011. It's been a lot of heartache month after month for 7half very long years. But when it finally happened in March I didn't get any symptoms apart from tiredness which I was thankful for cause I've always struggled to sleep lol.
Now 20 weeks in I still have the tiredness and my nipples are a little sensitive but other than that you wouldn't no I was pregnant.

I'm the same as you, thank full that it's been so 'easy' but I'm also thinking is this the calm before the storm hehe. I keep having dreams that pregnancy will be as smooth as silk but labour will be awful and last for days!
Fingers crossed it's easy for us both

I felt this way during my pregnancies. Everything went so smoothly, not much morning sickness, either. In fact, I generally really enjoy pregnancy.

Well, it turns out I got babies that were both bad sleepers and bad eaters. So don't worry. Everything evens out at some point!
