What are your symptoms so far? I was just curious and wanted to compare with mine.
So far its just been tiredness, peeing all the time, increased appetite, sore & larger books, bloat aka blump, cramping at times, and a bit hormonal. No sign of m/s yet...which I guess is a good thing!
I just wanted to see what the other ladies at 5 weeks are experiencing. My first appt isn't until Nov. 16th...seems like forever!! It will be a long next 16 days!
Re: For the ladies who are about 5 weeks along...
I'm tired, peeing a bit more than usual, have to eat small meals (I was the same with dd), and if I get too tired I start to get nauseous. I only had mild, infrequent m/s with dd (for which I am eternally grateful!!) and hope that stays the same with this pregnancy.
At my 5 weeks i was the same way and im in week 9 and lucky to not have m/s and only tired and sore boobies.
I've got next to nothing. thankful. can't say i'm any more tired than normal. no cramping. having a little trouble sleeping but i think that might just be anxiety.
feeling a little queasy at random points after i eat. but no real m/s.
FYi...we have the same due date. : )
I am exactly the same as you OP. The only thing I can add is that I have developed Lactose Intolerance. So strange! First we thought it was a UTI, then a reaction to implantation, turns out, I just can't handle dairy!
My first ultrasound is November 17th so I know how excited you are and how long this wait is seeming!

Noticable bloat
Very sore heavy boobs
Round ligament pains
This is my second. I feel tired but I don't know if that is just normal tired or because of the weather or pregnancy related. It certainly isn't the fatigue I remember last time.
Otherwise I am still operating as usual and wondering when the real symptoms will hit.
blump
My boobs have probably grown another cup size at this point, they are sore but nothing compared to a few weeks ago.
hip pain, lower back pain, nausea, heartburn, constipation, and EXHAUSTION.
ETA: I also pee a lot. Especially at night. Holy Jesus!
I have the same symptoms, word for word. The sore boobs is new as of yesterday and no m/s yet.
Tired
Peeing a lot
Bloat
M/s coming and going throughout the day
some cramping
My first appt is Nov. 17th. Yes,forever
Glad to see there are a few of us 5 weekers.. I keep browsing the July board just because I sometimes think they are closer in symptoms to me.
Anyways--- I too have had some light cramping or twinges for over a week now.
My first appointment is Nov 8th and I am anxiously looking forward to it.
Cooper and Ellie
I'm tired and peeing alot, and very sore boobs!!! Those are the only symptoms so far. With my first the heightened sense of smell was ridiculous but, so far I don't notice a difference with my sense of smell.
I go on Wednesday for my first appointment! I was high risk at the beginning of my first pregnancy due to a very large cyst so they want to check things out and make sure I do not need to go on bed rest again.
OP, my symptoms pretty much mirror yours. I would say my biggest symptoms are:
-Sore boobs (even putting on my bra is a painful ordeal)
-Fatigue (just normal house cleaning or walking up steps tuckers me out)
-Emotional (I have randomly started bawling at least a dozen times in the past week)
Just thankful that no m/ has showed up yet! Fingers crossed.
My first appointment is not until 11/29!! UGHHH...forever!!!!

I'm exactly at the same place as you. I am tired a lot (but honestly before being PG I was on the tired side of things too) and I guess I have to pee more although I have a strong bladder so it's not as bad. I have a good friend who is about 2 weeks ahead of me and her symptoms started around 7 weeks. It concerns me, but I am staying positive. I also have the cramping that you described. My first appt is Nov 11 - so still feels like a long time away. Hang in there!!
