Brand new...

Hey there! So my H and I had a bfp last Sunday! We found out at urgent care when I tweaked my foot! It was so very random and the PA actually told me my test was positive there. We were not expecting it at all! I freaked out and have taken two tests since then and both were also positive! This will be my very first pregnancy. I am new to all of this and don't know what to expect! So far, I really haven't had very many symptoms. I just have some bloating, I'm tired a lot, and I've had some cramping that feels a lot like period cramping. I've been told by a lot of people plus google that it is pretty normal to have that symptom? Has anyone else experienced only vague symptoms? Maybe it's because I'm only 5 weeks tmrw.

A little about myself. I've been married 2 years. I'm an RN. I have no children but two sweet fur babies! From NC!

Re: Brand new...

  • What a way to find out! Congrats. My symptoms are pretty mild so far too.

  • Congrats! Yes, I'm having cramping and bloating as well. It feels just like it did with my first pregnancy. A little cramping isn't cause for concern, just a little uncomfortable.
  • Congrats and welcome.  Yes period-like cramps are normal.  Those, and fatigue are my only symptoms so far.
