Hey, My husband and I are 4 and a half weeks pregnant. Anyone else due in January? I need to talk to someone with the same symptoms. I'm so nervous I'm not having the right ones or that it's all a dream and one day I'll wake up and the little one really isn't there. Anyone else?

Re: 4 and A half Weekers?
I am 4 weeks, 2 days. We just found out yesterday, and were not TTC yet! We were going to start trying in September, so this came as a bit of a shock
. We are excited, but super nervous as well.
Main symptom? Reeeally sore breasts. They hurt!! I have never had breast tenderness before.
It does not feel real right now.
Keep in mind that there are no "right" symptoms.. and congrats on your pregnancy!
I am due on January 12th!
So far I am queasy off and on, and I have mild cramps that come and go. Other than that I feel pretty great. I think everyone is so different as to when, what and the severity of their symptoms.
I want to be like one of those woman that has no idea she is pregnant until she goes into labor!!
There are no right or wrong symptoms. Everyone will experience pregnancy differently from other women and even from different pregnancies in each woman.
If it makes you feel better - my boobs are sore, tender, bigger and my nipples are bigger and darker. I've had BAD nausea and vomiting with this pregnancy (previous pregnancies didn't include vomiting). I am a lot more tired than usual, but nowhere near as exhausted as my pregnancy with Chickadee. I'm peeing more than usual for me, but it's not crazy like it was with my pregnancy with Chickadee.
The thing is though - symptoms don't mean much. I had every symptom under the sun and still lost my baby. Women with no symptoms have had very healthy pregnancies.
Just do your best to relax and enjoy your pregnancy, however long it lasts. You can't change the outcome at this point, unfortunately. Whatever is going to happen is going to happen.

When are you done for the year? My kids are done June 10 (teachers are there until the 16th,) and I am definitely counting down the days...
I know exactly how you feel! We just found out yesterday, and I'm totally not believing it. I have peed on 4 sticks already, just so I can try to convince myself. It's just not tangible right now. I have no symptoms. Zero. The only reason I know I'm pregnant is because those tests tell me so. It is the most bizarre thing in the world.
Watch out January, here we come!!
Shortness of breath (just discovered that today!)
Heart palpitations
Cramps
Otherwise, it's all good in the 'hood.

Hi Girls. I'm Jen and I'm new to The Bump. We are also just over 4 weeks, due 01/10/10. So far, I've had nausea, cramps, heart palpitations (just once), feel bloated, gassy & hungry!! LOL. I guess the good part is that my boobs aren't that sore.
Congrats to all!!
4W, 5D here.
Already: Mild cramping 24/7, a bout of "lightning crotch" yesterday, general forgetfulness, inability to concentrate, some insomnia, and I fell asleep at 7:30 last night.
How's that for an early symptom roundup.
Oh, and I almost cried at a Sears commercial.
