I’ve been getting carsick almost every drive. My nausea outside of the car has been pretty manageable, but it’s just so much worse once we hit the road. I’m about to buy one of those seasickness bracelets.
@emsnedds I wear those seabands all the time! I have a pair in every bag and in the car. I don't have nausea as a symptom, but I get motion sickness, and they really do help. Or it's a placebo effect. Either way, relief!
The first 6 or so weeks I had some light cramping throughout the day, and for the last two I’ve started to feel nauseous without enough snacks and have food aversions. Generally speaking, I’m feeling really good and that makes me nervous. Like I don’t even feel pregnant 90% of the time and I’m almost 8 weeks. Still no US for another week and a half - I’m really hoping all is well in there. This is my first pregnancy but my mom had trouble carrying healthy babies to term. It makes me feel better reading all of your comments & seeing that there’s quite a few other people in the same boat!
6w1d with baby #2. I have sore burning nipples, occasionally cramping with a "full" uterus feeling. I'm randomly a little queasy and will gag randomly. No full blown morning sickness yet. I'm tired and pretty bitchy/argumentative. My poor guy... lol First u/s is 09/09 so my biggest symptom for now is anxiety. Including mini panic attacks/tight chest. Thanks for sharing ladies!
I'm tired, and I have so much gas it's making me feel full/nauseous so I'm not eating much. I had eggs and toast this AM, and just struggled down a bowl of oatmeal. MH is making hamburgers right now and the smell is not good.

@meagg I haven’t had a ton of symptoms either and have felt pretty good, so I felt the same way! My sister-in-law has had two miscarriages and my mom did and that made me super anxious, but I just had my first ultrasound (8w1d) and there was a heartbeat and a baby in there! It just goes to show that symptoms don’t mean anything. My mom told me she had all the symptoms when she had the miscarriage and no sickness with her viable pregnancies, so everyone is different and it doesn’t indicate how the pregnancy is going!
@babybison I’m happy to hear those bracelets work for you! Do you have a favorite brand or store you buy them from? I’m not even sure where to get them.
@emsnedds I get the actual sea-bands brand, and usually from Amazon because I have Prime. But I think they're in CVS and Walgreens. They have purple ones called sea-band mama, to cater to pregnant people, but they're more expensive and literally the same bands 😆
The nurse practitioner doing my ultrasound today said she didnt expect me to feel any worse than I do right now. I don’t have very many symptoms except for some nausea to begin with, so I’m hoping this just continues. I guess symptoms don’t mean much! It made me all the more anxious for my ultrasound to see what was going in there.
@Kathryn0903 Me too! I've felt on and off a little queasy for a couple weeks, but actually threw up early this morning for the first time. My husband and FIL want to go to the state fair tomorrow and I just don't know if I can do it.
I'm 7 weeks and I have nausea, major bloat but the craziest thing is feeling so hungry (when I ate 2 hours earlier) and then after eating like half of a normal sized meal I feel so full (like I just had two super size meals). is this normal?? 🤔
I also totally lost my sense of smell for a few weeks 😂😂.
The boob pain yall... Any remedies?! I can barely sleep because they get squished when Im on my sides and Im uncomfortable on my back. Other than that there's a def feeling of queeziness that just lingers until about 3-4pm and then Im starving no matter what until Im asleep. What gives?! LoL.
Oh, also craving soup big time, which is not something I really ever eat.
@liselotte77 sometimes the best way to get to sleep without squishing my boobs is to tuck a pillow under one of my hips. That way I’m not sleeping flat on my back but my boobs are still upright. I’m sorry it’s so uncomfortable right now, and I hope you feel better in the second tri.
@liselotte77 I started sleeping in sports bras. It helps tremendously! Granted, my boob pain has decreased in intensity, but it helped when it was at its worst.
I just started with the nausea. I feel like I constantly have an upset stomach. I didn't have any of this last pregnancy and am not happy about this turn of events. I'm sorry you guys have been going through this!

I was mostly sick later in my pregnancy last time, but I've had pretty severe all day nausea so far and I'm definitely not happy lol

The nausea is miserable! It makes me just want to sleep all day so I don’t have to deal with it.. but then the hunger takes over and I have to get up to eat!
I also just got some blood test results back and my thyroid levels are high.. now just have to wait to see what that means from the doctor but maybe that has something to do with it for me!
I’m a STM and the symptoms so far have been very different than they were with my first. I’m only about 5 weeks at this point per my LMP but my boobs have been super sore for the past 2 weeks (it’s one of the reasons I took a test in the first place). I have had bad nausea on and off, but haven’t actually gotten sick yet so hoping it doesn’t get worse. My sense of smell is definitely in overdrive. The kitchen sink and garbage are basically a nightmare. I’ve also been feeling very exhausted and it has made the work day a struggle. Thank goodness for this long weekend and all the naps I’ve been able to take! I’ve also been having back pain and just overall body aches. I will say that all of these symptoms seem to come and go and some days have been better than others.
