Thursday symptoms (or lack thereof)

suzysurparis · October 2014

How the hell is it already Thursday? I have Monday work I haven't even started! Ahh!

How's everyone doing this lovely gray morning?

suzysurparis · October 2014

I'm less nauseous than last week and I'm worried as a FTM who has nothing to compare to. I need to get the next u/s to calm my tits. Also, I think I'm getting a cold sore, which is just swell. Should be great on our weekend trip to Marseilles.

mmmsly · October 2014

Im a FTM as well with "light" symptoms. I look at it as a great thing.......but i know the women in my family carry babies very well and usually dont have real bad ms or extreme pregnancy symptoms. Right now I am just real moody (read total bitch) and have a problem with my mother and MIL.

Your cold sore planned it that way it knew you were going on a trip and it wanted to go too!!!

amooraxo · October 2014

I feel the same way girls! I felt like initially my symptoms were moderate and now they are much lighter .. or maybe I've gotten used to feeling this way?! My digestive system is still in a funk but I'm sure it will probably stay thay way... but other than that my biggest symptom now is that I'm just freaking annoyed. I work with some real ding bats and I never used to let it bother me.... ohhhh but now, it annoys the shit outta me for some reason and I feel like a bitch inside my own mind. Anyone else like this?!

lmfs90 · October 2014

Ugh still can't sleep. Boobs still hurt. Had my first real sickness today. Spent my day in different pet stores and all the smells made me so sick! Had to dry heave for a while when I got home.

suzysurparis · October 2014

Ah, now that I'm at work and I had taken my multivitamin this morning instead of just a folic acid supplement, the nausea is back.
@mmmsly The cold sore is definitely from getting only 6.5 hours sleep the past two nights instead of 8.5. My body is a greedy sleep asshole and if I try to take away even a little sleep it fights back.

greenwoodlc · October 2014

This was the hardest night so far. Took my prenatal before bed and on an empty stomach. Bad idea. I woke twice with almost a gas bubble type feeling. Has anyone else ever experienced that?

Also nauseous and the exhaustion continues. I accidentally slept through my alarm.

popples8 · October 2014

I am 8 weeks 3 days and also feel that my symptoms have just about disappeared. I know everyone says symptoms fluctuate but it's hard to stay confident. Last week my boobs were very sensitive and I was nasaus everyday. My first apt. Is Monday so I am hoping for reassurance.

ashelcole · October 2014

I slept like crap, constantly waking up. Tried setting my alarm early this morning so I could get in a snack and some ginger ale before I got up for work, hoping to stop the nausea. We'll see how that goes......

Knottie19416811 · October 2014

Hi there! So I'm a FTM and this is our first after we had a loss early this year. Not having too bad of symptoms besides being tired and the constant nag of nausea. No real MS yet, but it might be rearing it's ugly head soon enough.

beattykid · October 2014

Ugg I've been up since 3 and I'm about to have to get up for work. Stuffy nose, sore boobs, nonstop burping unless I take zofran. Can't sleep!

stinybean · October 2014

Good morning! My symptoms have been on and off, but last night I took my bra off and wow is that what everyone has been taking about? I thought maybe boob pain might not be a symptom I get bc of my lack of boob, but last night's pain was confirmed this morning when I leaned down and brushed against my leg while getting changed Yowsers!!

shanaUW · October 2014

I cannot fathom another month of this nausea. Every time I see a mother I think, "How did she survive it? I had no idea it was going to be this tough. How are you ladies surviving this sick and tired feeling?

I've got the pressure point bands for my wrists which haven't done anything yet, I've been taking 3 rounds of 25mg of B6, and I am eating small meals. I tired the unisom thing but I have never felt more drugged in my life (couldn't get out of bed for 20 hours) so that is a no go.

Sorry to be negative Nancy - but how are you all dealing? I seriously think I may have to check myself into a mental hospital before the week is up!

effthisnoise · October 2014

Nausea and lots of gas yesterday evening and nausea again this morning.

Random, but related: Two days ago I wore sea bands, which seemed to help with nausea, but my right wrist started hurting that night and since yesterday there are things I can't do without my wrist hurting (twisting door knobs, pushing a door shut, etc). I couldn't squeeze the trigger when pumping gas yesterday, either. I can't think of anything else that I did differently that could have caused this. Is it possible that I hit a nerve while the sea band wasn't positioned correctly? Does anyone have any experience with this? Google wasn't very helpful.

GASuzuki · October 2014

No sore boobs today, but morning sickness has reared its ugly head. So, hello, nausea.

katier29 · October 2014

I've been super sleepy, and woke up this morning with a lot of nausea. It's seeming like it's going away now. And my boobs hurt, I'm starting to think I'm going to need a new bra soon.

holliberry28 · October 2014

No nausea, but definitely queasiness. I also seem to have the opposite of constipation, going like 3 times a day, and still up 5 lbs. what gives?

Also, 8 or 9 hours if sleep, doesn't make a difference, want sleep all.the.time.

haleyjoandaniel · October 2014

5w1d, woke up feeling hungover but definitely not from alcohol. Also haven't slept good in the past 3 nights. Just praying for a good night sleep soon! Hope all you ladies are feeling good

ohiodoxiemama08 · October 2014

Still not super far along and not feeling tons of symptoms. Mainly just really exhausted, heightened sense of smell and craving Chinese food. I really have a hard time remembering the beginning of my pregnancy with DD (must be mommy brain) but I'm fairly certain I didn't really feel "pregnant" until closer to 6 or 7 weeks.

atj13ne · October 2014

Cant sleep at night always waking up, but constantly feel exhausted! Everything annoys me, other than that I just am hungry. Have a great thursday everyone!

betsyplunkett12 · October 2014

Feeling super exhausted. I can't hardly stay awake past 8 PM. Anyone else have heartburn most of the day?? Other than that not much MS so far.

delujm0 · October 2014

Nothing yet really...i might be slightly more tired than normal? Hard to say since under non-pregnant circumstances i can easily fall asleep at 9pm. i'm a good sleeper.

5 weeks today, so i figure it will probably get worse. i felt a bit ill at my spin class this morning, so i took it easy. might have to start eating some crackers before my morning workouts i guess.

i don't want to WISH for symptoms, because i know it's a lot more comfortable to not have them, but i do wish i had a few so i'd know i'm pregnant! multiple positive pee sticks and a missed period aren't enough for me i guess. ;-)

Ladymouse · October 2014

Woke up feel like my abdomen was going to implode. A little bit of dry heaving into the toilet, and I'm back to merely feeling like death warmed over.

mommacandi · October 2014

The exhaustion is getting more intense...it's all I can do to keep my eyes open until DD's bedtime at 8pm. Gas and an all over queasiness nonstop, but no full blown nausea yet. With my DD, I was nauseous all day until about 13 weeks, but never got sick. Starting with major food aversions...I always feel hungry, but nothing is appetizing. Boobs consistently sore, some days worse than others. Thank goodness it's almost the weekend. I plan to spend most of the weekend in sweats.

carolyngrace · October 2014

Well, I slept 12 hours last night, so we'll see if I can finally go through a day without wanting to pass out!

Also, this weird thing started where after I eat breakfast I feel super gassy and am expelling something between a burp and a wretch (like I'm going to throw up). Except it's not leading to throwing up, it's just like my body is forcefully burping. EWWW.

I feel the same as you--I don't want to wish for symptoms, but I'd like to feel confident that the pregnancy is progressing.

theheartoverflows · October 2014

Ok. bit of an embarassing symptom but I walk around looking like I'm cold all the time! My nips are erect 24 hours a day and DH keeps teasing me that I'm going to poke someone's eye out with them. Jerk.

dkleid · October 2014

The past two nights I have woken up at like 3 am with intense stomach pains, after sitting on the toilet for about 20 minutes I usually feel better, but then it takes ,me a good 15 minutes to fall back asleep and my alarm is set to go off at 5:30 in the morning.. But on the weekends I can sleep from 10-8 with no issues... Wish i could sleep from 10-5:30 with no issues on work days!!

tinybride717 · October 2014

Nausea again this morning, but I didn't gag while brushing my teeth! Small victories. The thought of any food at all is making my stomach churn, but gotta choke down that vitamin somehow. Slept off and on all night, lots of tossing and turning, which is odd for me. Still wiped out and bloated - helloooo week 6 :P

One day closer to the weekend, though!!

Last/this morning was the first time I felt nauseous to the point of needing to puke. Kind of wish I could so I would feel better. I'm drinking a smoothie which seems to be helping. Pretty sure that greasy pizza last night is the culprit. Also my back is killing me.

Thanks for this...I will be having all the pizza for dinner tonight after reading your post.

Leahks77 · October 2014

I'll join you ladies with limited symptoms (and looking for a little concrete "feel like I'm pregnant" feeling). I'm tired, but I have a 15mo and work nights. So I'm usually tired. Didn't have a lot of symptoms the first time though, but I think more than this. Oh well... Will try to enjoy it. Off to get greasy pizza....

loveinkw13 · October 2014

@Budders12 - glad your sick day worked! Your dog is too freaking cute.

@effthisnoise - I go to acupuncture weekly, and he gave me something along the lines of a sea band. He instructed me to place it on a pressure point on my wrist/arm and to press down when the waves of nausea hit. It's completely possible you hit a pressure point with the sea band. And those suckers hurt when pushed the wrong way. I hope you get some relief soon.

AFM, I'm pretty lucky so far (knocks on wood). I am useless past 9PM at night, and I was useless for most of the day yesterday too. I've been getting nausea after I eat though, which is weird. I eat healthy so it's not like I'm shoving junk food down my hole. Oh, and my boobs are sore and swollen. H enjoys the swollen part but not so much the sore.

Happy Almost Friday!

ETA: Words are hard

jbartsy · October 2014

Woke up super nauseous in the middle of the night and had trouble falling back asleep so I'm dragging today. Still nauseous and bloated. Just put on my sea bands so hopefully those will help a bit.

My boobs aren't as sore as they've been, which freaks me out a little, but I'm sure it just comes and goes.

Hi lady! I was wondering how you were feeling. So nausea is kicking in for you huh? I have been able to avoid it thus far and hoping it stays at bay but I'm afraid that once I get further along it will rear it's ugly head again :-< I hope you feel better today!

housewifebecomesher · October 2014

OP, I too have work from Monday that has not been done. I am SO TIRED and I cannot get motivated. All I want to do is sit on my couch and watch back to back episodes of trashy TV with some sort of bottomless snack. I'm slightly nauseous but only when I don't eat, so...yeah, I just keep eating. I'm going to gain so much weight this pregnancy...

I have the gassiness and have the "opposite problem from constipation" someone else mentioned.

I'm only a few days into week 5...geez. DH doesn't believe me that I have symptoms because they came much later and lighter last time around.

Oh and my boobs will randomly hurt off and on all day.

nmhova · October 2014

Pretty nauseous this am so have been chomping on some crackers. Boob soreness has gone down and like others have said this has made me freak out slightly.... And along the freak out lines...I am happy to announce (maybe?) that my night time ritual of getting cramps was slightly derailed yesterday (only one for a couple minutes). So...I'm trying to keep my chin up and not jump to crazy diagnosis based on lack of symptoms. Happy Thursday?!

brody624 · October 2014

I got a wonderful cold sore this week too. I've been really tired. I fall asleep early at night, but then I keep waking up to pee, toss around. I have been having nausea on & off for the last 2 days, but today I feel okay for now.

Victoriarob · October 2014

Oh lord, this is terrible. With only a slight bit of nausea in the morning (quickly quelled by a piece of bread), it seems the pregnancy God's have decided that they will make my uterus feel like its being stretched like children's silly putty. Nothing seems to help! It comes and goes...looks like i'm living in yoga pants until this subsides.

Anyone else having this "pain"?

JoJo1111 · October 2014

I have developed a major poop aversion. As a nurse and the mother to a potty training 2 yr old it is made for a looong week of dry heaving.

courtyowl427 · October 2014

@Budders12, glad to hear you're feeling better cold wise. Amazing what a day off can do!

Last night, got home late and ate a little dinner followed by complete exhaustion, like not wanting to move from the couch to bed at 8pm. That was different. Still not a ton of physcial symptoms like ms or nausea, but I am definetly an emotional wreck. My DH is annoying the shit out of me for things I can usually let go. Also feeling somewhat weepy at my desk this morning with little appetite.

foxbaby9713 · October 2014

Not a single symptom! Guess I shouldn't complain but I just want to actually feel pregnant!
