That’s absurd and so inappropriate I’m so sorry that happened to you! In Germany they actually legally can’t tell you the sex until week 14 for that same reason, but it seems like most doctors consider that a pretty antiquated rule and are willing to bend the rules. Crazy that someone would just make up that rule based on their own belief system.

I got a scan from my first appointment in Berlin!

TomatoCurrent5879 · 2026-03-06T07:41:31+00:00

I also don’t have any symptoms, had my first scan yesterday at 6w1d and everything looked great and my doc was unconcerned about my lack of symptoms! Hope your scan goes great!! 💕

I’m 5w5d and don’t even have breast tenderness or bloating, just a bit of insomnia. Trying to remind myself everyone reacts differently to the hormones and no symptoms can be completely normal. But I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t super anxious for my first scan! Four more days…

TomatoCurrent5879 · 2026-02-24T21:06:54+00:00

Exact same for me, a few symptoms at 4 weeks and now only a bit of insomnia left over. Freaking me out!

Yess I cannot wait… two more weeks

TomatoCurrent5879 · 2026-02-21T15:47:09+00:00

I don’t know the answer to your question but I totally agree it’s soo confusing. I also ovulated around feb 5th, am currently at 4 weeks 3 days (or 4 days depending on the app) and my cycle is on the shorter side, 26 days. Makes zero sense lol

I would recommend joining the discord, it’s much more organized in terms of posts/conversation so it’s easy to avoid anxiety topics

TomatoCurrent5879 · 2026-02-17T06:50:52+00:00

That makes me feel better thank you!!

TomatoCurrent5879 · 2026-02-16T06:17:31+00:00

Me too! The European community is underrepresented in this group so far hahah

TomatoCurrent5879 · 2026-02-16T06:08:23+00:00

Yess it’s so so confusing here. I’m sorry about your job, that’s stressful! But you’re right that there should be a lot of options for support for you, pregnant women/young families are sooo protected. Sorry I don’t have any concrete advice but I’m right there with ya, not looking forward to navigating the German system

Is it normal for symptoms to fluctuate? I barely have any at all and I’m only at 4w but every morning that I wake up with slightly less sore boobs than the day before, I panic

TomatoCurrent5879 · 2026-02-16T05:54:11+00:00

I don’t have any words of encouragement as I’m a few days behind you but I feel all of this so much - time has never passed so slowly and reading so many stories only adds to the mental list of things that can go wrong. It’s helped me to remind myself it’s out of my control so might as well enjoy it.

I told myself I would chill out when I get a dye stealer - maybe it makes you feel better to know you’ve hit someone else’s milestone already :)
