My mood swings and nausea are at their absolute worst these days, im around 9 weeks. Just wondering when these hormones reach their highest so i know if the toughest phase is still coming or almost done. send strength yaar.
I read hCG kind of peaks late first trimester and then dips, which is why some feel better in second tri. I definitely felt more normal after week 12. Did others feel that shift too?
My doctor said hCG peaks around the end of the first trimester, roughly 8-11 weeks, which is often why nausea is worst then. Other hormones keep rising later. It honestly explained why I felt so off in those early weeks.
The early pregnancy hormone usually peaks near the end of the first three months, dear, which is why moods and nausea are strongest then. It settles after. So if you are feeling all over the place right now, its very normal.
Those early weeks, around 9-10, were brutal for me with the sickness, and apparently thats when one of the hormones peaks. It did ease a lot after the first trimester. Hang in there if you are in that phase, it gets better.
