Re: DISCUSS YOUR SYMPTOMS (OR LACK THEREOF) HERE!

  • Just read your post after posting mine.  I TOTALLY feel ya!  We became pregnant through IVF after 2 years of infertility.  I think it's hard for me to just believe that everything is just 'ok' because it hasn't been for so long.  And the lack of symptoms is making it especially scary!  Not that I'm happy you're feeling the same way, but I'm glad to hear I'm not alone!

  • I have some but I also have leg and left arm pain (emailed my OB). If you're not spotting I wouldn't worry about it.

  • Neausea, super sensitive to smells, the other day someone had pizza and I almost barfed. But I love pizza!!
    boobs are so painful and keeping me upset at night.
    Having a better time eating than last week. I pretty much just make myself eat, Husband is good about helping with that (gently). I was actively trying to lose about 40 lbs with little luck before I got pregnant and now it's easy so I'm trying to eat more. Weight is steady.
    Bloating, gas, constipation, cramps, fatigue, have to pee every 5 minutes but I drink a TON of water and always have.
    It sounds a lot worse than it is. It's all bearable now but I'm only 5w3d today. Hopefully it doesn't get worse next week. =)

    EDD 5/28/2015 - First time mommy!

  • Go and see a homeopath hun they can definitely recommend something xx
  • I have been feeling like I have the flu. I have no morning sickness but I'm dizzy at times and always seem to have a headache. But the worst part is, is that I'm getting cramps extremely bad and all the time. I have been to the doctors twice now and they say it's normal but it hurts so bad.
  • I'm 7 week 3 days and I've been peeing lots, but mostly at night, when I go at least 4 times!!! Is this normal? I couldn't go to work this morning, as I was soooo tired, on top of already feeling exhausted, waking 4/5 times to pee and not being able to get back to sleep, was all I needed! I also have flu like symptoms and headaches, but drinking and eating regularly. My breasts are sore, but this changes daily! No nausea, thank god! Good luck everyone!
  • I'm 5weeks 6 days and boy has it been a wild ride. This is my first pregnancy and was not expecting all of these symptoms to occur so fast. I have nausea to the point where I can't even finish my meal, it's weird because at first the food taste great and then my appetite just goes down hill. I guess this is the food aversion symptom. The boobs are sore and It becomes very uncomfortable while wearing a bra. Very tired! Oh so tired! Sleep is like my best friend. Constant peeing along with mild cramps that mostly happening during the night or after I pee. Moodiness, I feel bad because I feel like I sometimes take it out on my partner, I really don't mean to but I think he understands. Some foods smell terrible to me, like to the point where I'm almost gagging lol. I plan on getting a new prenatal vitamin today because the one I previously bought called Natures Bounty, was so huge and I couldn't bare trying the swallow them without having to gag. If anyone has any suggestion to any prenatal vitamins available in Canada that would be awesome :) xoxx
  • I am 8w 4d, has anyone had spotting other than after intercourse? It's happened twice, but that was after intercourse. Today I have had some and am really nervous. My first appt is tomorrow.
  • Hi all! 5 weeks and 5 days! Nausea in the morning if I don't eat right away. But other than that I am able to eat fine. Aversion to smells big time! Extreme tiredness! Cravings already. Emotional for sure, more like mood swings I should say. So far truly loving it!!!
  • Yes it could be. I have that rapid breath ocassionally when I was rushing.

    As for your nausea, I notice if I'm hungry and stressed out, I would tend to get them. But after trying to eat right, I feel better. Less nausea. Do get fruits and more veg intake. Stay away from fatty stuff. Hope it helps! Happy baking.. :)
  • Aaaand I meant to post this here and not as a separate thread  #-o

     

     

  • 6 weeks today.  My boobs are growing by the second and ache so badly.  I have waves of nausea and brushing my teeth makes me gag.  Ginger ale, sprite or 7-up are my best friends to help with the nausea.  I have a sore back and light cramping sporadically which I think is gas related.   I'm also super tired so bed time is now around 8pm when my 3 year old goes down.

  • I saw that you're taking metformin... I'm diabetic but not on meds. Do docs say metformin is ok for baby? I'm worried about not eating and thinking diabetes drugs would allow me to have a more varied diet...

    Nausea, sore breasts, and exhaustion! Craving salty foods and carbs!

    I was thinking it was just me. I only want crisps and bread!! Anything savoury basically which is weird as I have a major sweet tooth normally!
  • I'm 7 weeks with a little cramping! Please pray I have a healthy pregnancy as I've had miscarriages in the past! No nausea but my boobs hurt constantly!
  • I'm 6 weeks and I feel like some of my symptoms have nearly vanished. Up until a couple days ago my boobs have been killing me, and I was slightly cramping. Now the only symptom I have left is extreme fatigue. Has anyone else experienced anything like this before? My first ultrasound isn't until 9 and a half weeks so I'm getting anxious.

  • Nice to know I'm not imagining things. This is my second pregnancy after my son 8 years ago , and I still feel like the symptoms are intensified. The nausea but no vomiting, but hungry sucks. I'm living in leggings, itd as if my uterus and abdominal muscles were like F#ckin it , we know what to do , let's look pregnant. (Must maintain my sense of humor)

    6 weeks 5 days pregnant..queasy when I look at or think about certain foods..can only really eat saltines and toast, water and ginger ale..boobs are tender, had a little cramping last week, and I feel out of breath at times..anyone else get out of breath this early?
  • I'm 6w3d and my symptoms have completely disappeared. I'm back to running normal distances/normal pace, back to eating like normal. Either I'm the luckiest pregnant woman ever, or something is seriously wrong with my baby. Ultrasound this Wed can't come soon enough.

  • I am 5-6 weeks and have had slight to mild nausea and sore boobs since before my test was positive, thought I was going nuts. I was also gagging while brushing my teeth.

    I still have all that plus super tired and unmotivated, bad stretching pains near my ovaries when I stand up, cough, laugh, roll over in bed. I'm also not wanting to eat anything at all, even when I'm starving. Force myself to take a few bites and it turns my stomach. I'm also light headed whenever I stand up.

    Trying to hide all this from people at work and family is tough.
  • @renarene I feel your pain!

    I'm at 8 weeks and the fatigue has hit a high. It's getting difficult to get through a work day and keep being pregnant a secret. And nausea is not helping... The past couple of days are the worst I've felt and although I know eating helps nothing seems to taste good! So frustrating! I'm attempting a favorite soup tonight... we'll see how it goes.
    Cinnamon gum has been my only friend when I feel like crap.
  • I've been having the WORST nausea all day long! No throwing up yet but I basically eat a box of Wheat Thins a day to try and combat it!

    Anyone else experiencing this? My boobs haven't been growing at all either!

    We see the doctor for our first appt Oct 13!
  • Hi I'm new here. 6 weeks and 5 days. Only symptoms are sore boobs (esp when bra comes off), exhaustion, and increased appetite. Also, I'm super bloated and someone at work even asked if I was pregnant (even though I am, it still stung!).
  • Huge boobs, like the size of Oklahoma huge, went up a cup size and I'm 5 weeks 1 day. Bloated, pants aren't fitting. Gassy lots of belching. Peeing a lot but thirsty all the time too. Eggs make me nausea. Tired all the time I nap every night I get home from work, but I used to be able to hit the snooze button and go back to sleep in the morning but now when I wake up I'm UP. Headaches. Light cramping. Just to name a few

    I'm 6w5d too! In the past I've had someone ask if I was pregnant (I had gained a little weight and I guess that's why). It is so incredibly rude for ANYONE to ask that unless you have a large, 6month baby bump. The nerve! Don't let it bother you :-)
  • 8w6d and the nausea is finally starting to subside! I'm still exhausted and my boobs are still really sore (and gigantic) and I finally have a butt for the first time in my life. Thank you, little baby. Thank you so much.
  • I would love anyone's advice: I'm 6w5d and since Friday I've had full-on nausea and vomiting. I can barely get out of bed and today I came home sick from work.
    I'm trying the Sea Band tonight and will see how it goes tomorrow. I'm worried about taking time off work though, since this is so terrible--I canny fathom going in tomorrow if I still feel this way.
    I feel like I have the stomach flu!
    Also, I have a work trip next week that will be long days and hard work.
    Should I tell my boss I'm pregnant and that I'm really sick and shouldn't go on the trip (it won't be a big deal if I don't go; it's more for my experience than actual necessity)?
  • My boobs have hurt for 3 weeks and I'm only 6w! I'm completely exhausted, I miss coffee, but I'll survive!

    The nausea really hit me today. I was baking pork chops and the smell almost made me lose it!
  • Well today I just found out I am expecting and I have the sore breasts, cramping, nausea and fatigue!!
  • edited September 2014
    The past 3 days have been nice, but for the two previous weeks I had nausea most of the day, very painful hunger every 3hrs, a disliking of all foods, and vomiting every time I drank water. Also got swollen feet just from pacing while talking on the phone. Dog walks were horrible. Giant change from the 1st pregnancy where I had 0 symptoms (besides nipple tenderness which i equated to being rough) until I was 16w and suddenly noticed a bump. I also have those tender nipples and some random boob pangs. I nearly regret trying for this new one. I also gained a lot of weight the first two weeks. Not knowing I was preggo and just felt hungry, We think I'm due about May 3rd. Also tired most of the time...and i've been hiccuping like crazy :P

    @mrspdx I'm going to assume it's normal because I feel that too some days.
  • @quirkyEM thanks! I've had the same thing happen before. It sucks every time:) it's nice to have someone who understands!

    I'm exactly the same...0 symptoms except I get really tired around 1:30 or so. According to calculations I will be 6 weeks tomorrow. My last pregnancy I had horribly sore boobs, awful taste in my mouths and puking from the time I found out until roughly 15 weeks. Other than my positive test and lack of a period I would never guess I was pregnant.
  • Mine are definitely subsiding except for my lower back pain. It is still is full effect.
  • My BOOBS! They're like two giant bruises!
  • Hello! Im 6w4d and my biggest issue is cramping. I have dull persistent cramps almost constantly. Also, recently I have experienced a little spotting. I have heard this normal so trying not to freak out! Anyone else these symptoms??
  • Im 5 weeks +2. Cramping off and on. Im a ftm and it kind of scares me. I know God is in control but really scared of a miscarriage.
  • Oh the EXHAUSTION is killin me man! It was my first clue that I was pregnant. This need for a nap around 3:00 every day. If I don't break down and take one I pretty much can't function! My breasts are HUGE, and I always feel slightly nauseated in the mornings. The weirdest and most annoying symptom I have, though, is that around 7:00-8:00 every night, even when I'm starving for some dinner, I can't eat more than a couple of bites of whatever it is. It's like baby puts the brakes on food intake and only wants pickles!
