1st Trimester

8 weekers how are you feeling?

I remember 8 and 9 weeks being the worst for me with my first pregnancy, and I feel just awful today Sad At least this time around I know what to expect, but that still doesn't make it any better. How's everyone else doing?

Re: 8 weekers how are you feeling?

  • I've been feeling great, but I have been very tired.  I also have a massive headache today. 
  • Loading the player...
  • my m/s has been awful but yesterday and today (so far) it seems to have let up a little which is nice. Beyond exhausted though and I'm sure the m/s will rear it's ugly head again soon.
  • I feel great but tired. I'm lucky...
  • I have been feeling great but very tired! And ALWAYS hungry lol
  • I am just exhausted most of the time!
  • I'm feeling worse than ever. My fatigue and dizzy spells have me wanting to lay in bed all day long. I've been getting lots of nausea. Ugh will this really get better? Oh, and I don't have much of an appetite for anything healthy. I seem to only want fried onion rings and chocolate. Both of which I haven't had because once I do I won't.stop.ever.

    Do you have an suggestions on getting protein in? Someone told me Carnation makes a chocolate drink or something but I can't find it at my grocery store. No peanut anything for me since I'm allergic.

  • I feel great other than being so tired all of the time. And hungry, I haven't turned down food since my BFP!
  • I'm exhausted and had a nagging headache today. I also feel so bloated and fat already. On a side note, I just read about Stephanie2167's m/c in her 8th week and I'm sad. I really feel like I'm not in any danger most of the time then I read these post and I get scared. After seeing the heartbeat, I can't imagine.
  • Hi ladies, I don't post much, but I've been able to get on more today.

    I've had m/s for the last week.  It starts everyday at about 4:00pm.  I'm feeling pretty lucky that I can get through my work day with out feeling sick. 

  • Aside from feeling like I ate an elephant (and am still hungry), I'm doing pretty well.  I wish my boobs would slow down a bit - at this rate they will be out of control (and not in a good way).

  • A little better today than I have been... which was a relief, I had this worry that morning sickness would just escalate all through first tri.  I'm ready to start feeling like I'm pregnant instead of like I have the flu :)

     

    Oh, and I get crazy hot flashes- anyone else get this??

  • Tired and sore breasts, occasional queasiness/dizziness... not too bad, really.

    PinecrestBride:  I love looking at your cute little u/s pic!!

  • Tomorrow will be 8 weeks, and yesterday I felt great, but today I am experiencing a lot of nausea. ?No M/S since BFP, but I am remaining hopeful that it's just something random for today.

    Hope the rest of you ladies start to feel better tomorrow!?

  • m/s has gone away for the last two days! Other than feeling sick and being tired I am good! Totally different from my last pregnancy. I can totally relate to those of you who said that you just want food 24/7. That is how I was the first time. Thank God I'm not that way this time b/c I gained 60 lbs the first time around. (lost it all and more but still!)
  • I feel pretty yucky on and off all day. At least I know it will only last 5 more weeks!

  • I feel nauseated, headachy, tired, and fat!
  • I've been feeling exhausted for weeks now, and I have that bloated feeling too. I didn't think my pants would be too tight already?! I've also been nervous. It's hard not to be with all the things you read about. I have had light spotting for the last 2 weeks that put a good scare in me, but my hCG levels are great and I saw the heartbeat earlier this week. My OB says everything is going really well and it's totally normal. I just can't wait until I clear that first trimester!
  • Its funny you ask this question, the other day i was nervous because all my symptoms just went away, then this morning I threw up and have been feeling yucky all day.  So crazy what this little cashew can do to a girl!!! :)

  • The Carnation Instant breakfast can usually be found where the granola bars and/or oatmeal is, not typically in the cereal aisle.  Try there.  Its a dry mix and you add milk to it.  They are decent.

  • For most of my symptoms everyday is different. Yesterday my m/s was killing me but today I feel great. I am always tired though!

  • I feel tired.  And I am doing better now that I have maternity jeans from the Gap.  I love my black yoga pants.  I have been practicing sleeping on my side.

    I can't wait for the second trimester... ??

  • Wednesday and Thursday of this week were by-far my worst days.  I found my sea bands last night and have worn them all day.  That's seemed to help.  Or it could have been the amazing donut I just ate.  Who knows? 

    I've also been really tired.  It does seem like I'm heading into a pretty rough period.
