How's everyone feeling? 

furmama2babymama

Tired, constipated, crampy, and my lower back hurts! But I’m so happy to be feeling so yucky for my babe ❤️

rmml1331

Bloated and nauseous. I'm not used to the nausea this early! With my first, it was very light and was from about 6 - 9 weeks. With my second, I don't even remember it. This is a whole different level!!

romeoandjuliet146

No symptoms yet. Last pregnancy, symptoms started at about 6 weeks.

knottief0770052f5a8fe48

Extremely tired, nauseous, and constipated. Not even 6 weeks yet and just feel like blah. 

scostel2

I'm also super tired. I also normally drink a gallon of water a day, but now a couple sips and I am just not interested in it.

@rmml1331 with my first two who are both boys I was so so sick the entire time. Even before the test was positive! This time I haven’t felt that bad at all. Im kind of hoping for a little girl this time lol maybe I’ll feel better during pregnancy 

ournextadventure

I was having constand nausea and bad bachaches but those both have gotten better this week. It makes me nervous but I'm trying to stay positive. I still have nausea in the mornings and after eating but it isn't that bad. I hit 6 weeks today so I expect it to ramp up soon as this is when my morning sickness kicked in the first time and then never went away...

starkette

Sore boobs, sometimes nausea at night...I'm having some spotting today and of course I'm anxious about it, but I spotted with my second and everything was fine. Not gonna freak out until there's something to freak out about.

bender29

I’ve got nothing over here. Actually POAS yesterday to be sure I really was.

romeoandjuliet146

@bender29 Same. I don't really feel anything yet. 

mgmac

5 weeks today and mostly just bloating and very tired - by 7:30 I feel ready for bed! In the morning I am usually a bit nauseous on and off until lunch time. I have had a bit of cramping here and there as well, and my temperature is fluctuating a lot. I am either too hot or too cold all the time. 

its_aashia

4 weeks and 4 days, and I' m bloated, sore nipples, a little cramping, lethargic, and so many food aversions already. I'm also on progesterone so... yeah lol.

bender29

@romeoandjuliet146 shhh don’t tell anyone. I shouldn’t have put that out there yesterday. By last night I started getting some pretty significant bouts of nausea. 

ermsmcg

@bender29 Ahhhhh same! Been talking about how "I don't feel pregnant at all!" This morning, I'm exactly 6 weeks, woke up nauseous, had a cup of tea, and promptly threw it all up. Ugh.

mgmac

Anybody else having a lot of cramps? Not super painful or anything but just seems like almost constantly for the last two days. No spotting or anything, just kind of unnerving. I am guessing that’s normal?

daisy0322

@mgmac this is my 3rd and I always have some cramping off and on. The doctor says it’s just your uterus expansion 

mgmac

@daisy0322 thanks 😊 

furmama2babymama

@mgmac yes the pst few days I have have quite a bit of cramping, mostly at night/early morning. 

Newest symptom is having to pee ALL THE TIME. I’m afraid I’m going to wet the bed, it’s that bad. And I’m also so thirsty. 

mrsbaker89

just started the cramping feeling today but it’s a very mild cramp and it comes and goes. I hear that it is normal as long as their is no heavy bleeding. it’s even okay to spot between weeks 3-5. @mgmac

starkette

I've burped like 100 times today.  It's just so attractive. I'm also bloated but that could be because I'm super thirsty all the time and drinking a TON of water.

mgmac

@mrsbaker89 ok good to know. I had some very very light pink spotting the other day (a normal person probably wouldn’t have even noticed but I’m so paranoid). I keep googling it but that appears to be normal. I will have an obgyn appointment sometime this week and plan to mention it then just to be safe though.

kellmo31

Anyone else have bad nausea already? I am 4w6d and I am feeling so sick this morning. It feels like a bad hangover 

daisy0322

@kellmo31 not this time but with DS1 I was throwing up before the test was positive and with DS2 I was throwing up around 5 weeks 

ermsmcg

@kellmo31 I felt totally normal until w6+1, vomited in the morning, and w6+2, vomited at noon. I always feel better after vomiting. Today is day three and I'm nauseous.. honestly hoping to throw up again so I can get some things done! The nausea is awful.

jamidine

I’m somewhere between 5 and 6 weeks. I thought I was tired last week but apparently I didn’t know what tired was. I’m not feeling persistently nauseous but seeing it smelling the wrong thing will give me a strong bout of queasiness. Luckily, it passes (fingers crossed it stays that way). 

stressopalka

Yes, just started cramping today, lower left. Not really painful. Just pressure. This is my first so it worried me, but it seems to be normal! Thank you for asking this question. It gives me peace of mind. I hope your cramping has subsided. 😊

bender29

@ermsmcg I have been soooo nauseous all day! I would love to vomit and get it over with! Even if only momentarily 

@knottie41993adff69bc35d please change your name to something more unique and easier to tag and get to know you 😀
If you’ve already done so, try logging out and logging back in, that should fix it!

stressopalka

@bender29 Done! Thanks for the heads up! 😀

stressopalka

Anyone else struggling with getting enough calories in? My food aversions are so intense! Trying to eat as much as I can.

marionberry19

I am just over 4 weeks and the symptoms with this baby are much stronger than with my son. I would not consider myself an emotional person at all & today I cried because I found out we have tortellini in the freezer & apparently that is very good. 

bender29

@stressopalka not this go around, honestly I could use some of those food aversions right now 😂 but my last pregnancy I basically lived off of 4 things, not because I craved them, but because they were the only things that sounded remotely appetizing 

KFrob

I'm starting to get more queasy, my tooth brush gags have kicked in, the only food aversion I have right now is the pumpkin muffins I keep baking for my 5 year old, the thought of eating one really grosses me out, other than that just not super interested in food, until I am, and then I can't control myself and need to eat that certain thing Right. Now.  My nipples are sore, cramping, exhausted, moody, bloated, RLP already.  

@furmama2babymama Same!  As of yesterday I couldn't stop peeing.  I got up three times to pee last night.  

stressopalka

@bender29 thank you for responding! I feel like that will be my experience this time. 🥴

stressopalka

I’m having a lot of pressure/cramping in the left side of my pelvis. 6 weeks on Wednesday. First pregnancy. Is this normal? It’s not constant but pretty consistent, on and off.

mgmac

@stressopalka Im 6 weeks on Wednesday too and had a lot of cramping this week. As long as there is no blood and it’s not a lot of pain it is supposed to be normal. I have had some very faint pink spotting as well but have been assured this is nothing to be alarmed by, but will be mentioning it to my obgyn when I see them this week.

ournextadventure

My cramping at 6 weeks was pretty consistent. I had it on and off most days. It seems to be better today. I will be 7 weeks tomorrow. With my first I had mild cramps through most of my first trimester. I was told it is just your uterus expanding. As long as the cramps are mild it sound perfectly normal.

KFrob

@stressopalka Someone once told me that pain/pressure on the left side can be due to constipation.  You might have ovulated from the left and still have the cyst left over also that could be causing some pain.  But if it worries you call your dr, they might want to rule out an ectopic pregnancy.  

stressopalka

@mgmac thank you for sharing! No blood. I wouldn’t say a lot of a pain. It is a little pain, but I’m probably just being super sensitive. I don’t get period cramps usually, but I would imagine it feels like a period cramp. Keep me posted about your appointment!

stressopalka

@ournextadventure thank you for sharing! This helps! I would say it’s mild, but my paranoid first pregnancy brain is telling me otherwise. 😂 Just some tight cramping. A little painful but nothing severe or excruciating.

stressopalka

@KFrob thank you for your comment! I called the doctor and she said as long as the pain isn’t severe or constant and I don’t have any additional symptoms like heavy bleeding, I can wait until my appointment on the 26th. It comes and goes on that side all day. More just like a piercing sensation. Which I guess is a cramp. 😂
