I feel like my nausea and vomiting is way worse than with my past 2 pregnancies. I'm exhausted! It's 11am and I've thrown up 3 times

@mommac2017 oh that's a bummer I hope you can find something that gives you a little relief

My nausea gets me most of the day, haven't had any vomiting yet, thank goodness. I'm weird though and have legit anxiety over the idea of throwing up, so I do everything in my power not to. Probably a bad idea. I always wonder if I would feel better if I would just let it happen. 

I'm a total asshole lately. Everything irritates me and I feel like I'm going bsc. 

I'm hungry all the time. My grocery bill is going to be through the roof for a while.

I posted this in yesterday's symptom thread not realizing there would be one each day. Whoops.

So something weird happened to me last night. I woke up not remembering exactly what I was dreaming about but I was under the impression is was a "sexy dream" if you know what I mean. Well I wake up with what feels like a bad period cramp down by my groin. Within a few minutes it started to get less intense and by about 10 minutes the pain was gone. It makes me nervous because my first appointment isn't until March. No bleeding though. Ideas?

@feeislove we do weekly symptoms threads, so posting yesterday was totally fine

As far as your feeling, I get that when DH and I dtd and when I get turned on. My uterus contracts and it feels tight and crampy. Totally normal!

My digestive system is still out of whack, but the severity of morning sickness seems to come and go. Right now it's barely there. Meanwhile, I've been getting ravenous around meal time.

G'Day Girls!

found out my "girls" went from a 34B to a 36D today.
like... 

@verily I'm crazy with meal time now too. I have a newfound appetite.

@feeislove that has happened to me too when DTD. Maybe you were into the dream and it caused some cramps. Google tells me it's normal

@sjohns08 Ohhhh what's for dinner? We could be foodies together lol

I am having sore boob and joints. The worst is the insomnia. I go to bed around 8 and then wake up around 3 or 4. Any tips? My husband bought me a pregnancy pillow and that has helped a lot of the joint pain at night!

i think "morning sickness" is staring to rear its ugly head. Ive read everywhere that eating frequently and having something in your stomach helps with this. Well, I've thrown up a few times this week, and each time was triggered by what i was eating. So I guess I'm having a combination of food aversions/morning sickness. I am noticing that it seems to be triggered by foods that are pre seasoned or salad dressings. Very weird.

Hey ladies, I have symptoms but I'm not sure if they are from pregnancy, or from recent gallbladder surgery and the hormones i'm already taking from the FET. Nevertheless, if I burp right now I will barf, and feel like my boobs have weights in them.

I've been finding foods I usually love- (chocolate, peanut butter) have been just kind of meh. They don't taste bad and I'm not avoiding them... but they're just not as good as they usually are.

I also got mad and yelled at DH yesterday.. we were driving back from dinner at my moms and I was telling him that I was proud of myself for not telling her. He said "I'm not. It's way too early.. you shouldn't want to tell her." Cue angry yelling. Granted, I did feel mad for him minimizing my accomplishment.. but I was a little more dramatic than I needed to be

I'm 5 weeks, 3 days:

-nausea (My dad, who is a pastor, actually prayed over me today during church and I feel much better! Thank God!)
-cramps 
-sore boobs
-restlessness at night 
-frequent urination

casholmes4

So far I've just got sore boobs and a kind of unsettling bloating feeling. I think it's mostly nerves, because my morning (all day) sickness with my son was absolutely awful, and I'm scared it'll be the same with this pregnancy. 

jessafishy

Nausea is getting worse. DS currently has a wicked cold and I used the Nose Frieda on him this morning. It always makes me a little queasy because... snot... but it's worse now. I gagged this morning.

canonmom413

4 weeks today!
-bloated
-slightly crampy/tight
-food aversions
-thirst 
-discharge like woah 

gheti

6 weeks and I have never felt worse! So different this pregnancy. I am nauseous 24/7 plus diarrhea I just want to curl up in a ball and cry! Except I can't cry cause that would make me even more dehydrated! And....I am still nursing my 19 month old! Ahhhh! Just needed to vent!

mountainmartha

Nesting symptoms like woah today - I seriously woke up this morning with bizarre urges to clean out all the closets and scrub walls and do all this weird domestic stuff that I normally avoid, especially on my day off. Hopefully this symptom sticks 

mountainmartha

@gheti So sorry to hear! Hang in there 

mommac2017

@gheti, I will totally join you in curling up and crying! I'm 7 weeks and the nausea and vomiting is killing me. I just want to throw myself a pity party!

gheti

Thanks! We'll get through this!

grkgdss00

Food aversions and headaches all weekend

ksf13

The nausea and sensitivity to smells has set in. I've started getting little crampy/tight feeling, which stresses me out, even though I know it's normal. Heartburn has already made it's appearance as well. I'm accepting every new symptom with open arms, in hope that it means all is going well!  

mommac2017

My cat's stupid food STINKS. I can't feed her anymore so that's DH's job. But it's gotten so bad that now I want to throw up anytime I walk past it

mommac2017

And let's just go ahead and add diarrhea to my list of symptoms. 

Between the nausea, vomiting, and now diarrhea, I'm exhausted

s_corrigall

@gheti I'm so sorry, that sounds awful. I was feeling sorry for myself earlier, thinking that this is so much harder the second time around, and I'm not breast feeding like you!

I'm 7 weeks tomorrow and I am hating life. I'm nauseous all the time (I've now started diclectin), and I can't stomach most foods. Smells are starting to get to me, which is hard working in a high school, because every other boy has doused himself in axe body spray, ARGHH!

blewis2011

Mood swings!!
I am SO BLESSED to be pregnant with my second child andi have no idea why I am so angry!! Every time I look at my daughter I go right back to happy baby talk (I try not to most of the time). My last pregnancy I was super sad. Could anger mean increased testosterone levels? Possibly a boy?? Is that crazy?

kmornelas29

Just began feeling a little nauseas. Noooooo! Hoping and praying it's mild. 

mommac2017

I. Am. Starving!!!

I am seriously so hungry all the time. I eat in the morning and by 9:30 I am so hungry. I've been feeding DS lunch at 11/11:30 because I'm so hungry!!!! It's every couple hours!

relax&smile2

I am so nauceous, hating life right now.  Ugh.  Ate half a pb&j sandwich for dinner and that's all I could stomach

verily

I'm alternating between starving and horribly nauseous. I really want to just leave work and curl up on the couch. 

jessafishy

I am feeling fantastic this morning. Trying to enjoy it while it lasts and not start downward spiraling into "where did my symptoms goooooo?!?!"

I'll probably POAS at lunch to calm myself down.

EmEeGee

I'm having bleeding after using the bathroom this morning. I told myself I wouldn't panic this time if I bled because I had so much with my daughter. But I truly hate it so so so much. I'd rather have every other symptom ever. Ugh. I'm trying to stay calm because I'm not having any cramps that are new or different. But EFF. Doesn't help that my first dr appt isn't till march 15th. Uuuuggghhhh. 

ChocolateIsLife

I have been having cramps for the past week, which are normal, but is it common for the cramps to pretty much disappear? I'm waiting for my second beta results and am so nervous.

mommac2017

@ChocolateIsLife, my cramps come and go. I had them until about 5 weeks. Then they disappeared. Came back around 7 weeks. Totally normal!

kkerner87

Literally nothing. No nausea, no sore boobs, no cravings, no cramps. Nothing. Could be becausee I have had this nasty cold and it is consuming me, lol. I do have lots of bloat that sits high up. I look 4 months pregnant with a high bump, lmao. 

kkerner87

@blewis2011 I had intense rage in the first few weeks I was pregnant with my daughter. This time I'm pretty calm, i thought it might be a boy! Lol

2fitBees

Hello and congrats to you all! I'm active on the Trying to Conceive After a Loss group and I'm curious about symptoms and how early they showed up. Any early symptoms for any of you?

2fitBees

I actually found a thread on another board that has helped me, thanks! I wish happy, healthy pregnancies to you all!

Mommaswizz

Still relatively symptom-free 6 weeks + 5 days. Very occasional nausea. Mood swings often. I've been so skeptical of this pregnancy since the day of the BFP. The last 3 nights the crazy, vivid dreams began. Those have given me the most peace of mind out of everything. They're just like my last pregnancy. One week till appointment #1. I cannot wait to get to next wednesday!

relax&smile2

Verily- I am right there with you. This is awful!!!  I am only 7 weeks and with my last pregnancy my nausea didn't go away until 13 weeks!  I may not make it....

Ordered my favorite pizza for lunch. Black olives and onions. Went to take a bite, and couldn't do it. The olives smelled so metallic it was almost like they smelled like blood. So gross.
