Symptoms at 5.5 weeks?

Hi!

My symptoms have come and gone a bit recently, but at 5.5 weeks I have been feeling extremely thirsty (I have been drinking a little bit of decaf herbal peppermint or ginger tea and TONS of water!), extremely hungry (eating lots of veggies and a relatively well-balanced diet to limit constipation, but satisfying a few food cravings along the way), and increasingly tired.  My boobs have been really sore all throughout.  I have only had one vomiting episode and very little nausea, which surprises me.  Also surprising is this new tightness in my lower tummy with some pains that feels kind of like cramping, but with a little more aching.  They have gotten more and more severe and they come for a while and they go for a bit.  I've had no spotting.  What is this!?!?!?!?!?! 

Thanks for your help!

  • I guess they only get pretty sharp for a short while and then fade to become more dull.  Thanks!

  • Cramping is very normal! This is my 3rd, and cramps have gotten worse with each pregnancy!
  • Take a deep breath! You're pregnant and you're body is going to do all sorts of weird and wild things the next 9 months. Some will be exactly like what other ladies on here experience, other things you'll experience and no one else will. Trust your gut and call the doctor if the cramping is debilitating, but know that all the other symptoms are normal.
