This is my second pregnancy... My first ended in an early miscarriage pretty early on and I never had any cramping or bleeding. I am about 5 weeks along with this one and started getting some very mild cramping yesterday and was freaking out. It was so nice to read this today and see that a lot more ladies are having some light cramping early on as well.
5 weeks today still have some mild ish cramps on the left side. Waves of nausea. Exhausted. Breakouts. Appetite is small. First kinda good aversion the other day to my husband's Olive Garden salad.... The dressing smelled so strong and terrible to me!
I'm a mess because I don't feel like I am having enough symptoms. About 2 weeks ago, my breasts were so sore I could hardly stand myself, now I have very little tenderness. I have had no nausea, I am bloated a bit and have been constipated. I took my 7th hpt this morning and it was still positive. I have my first appt on the 24th...these next 6 days will be torture. I see a few of you have very few symptoms also, so that is reassuring. I am due around April 8. Thanks for listening. I'm driving myself crazy!!
I'm 5w 5 days and at this point I really only have some fatigue and bloating. My first pregnancy I started to get some morning sickness around this time so I am wondering if and when that may hit. I am hoping for an easy first trimester like I had for my first one. However, I had horrible horrible hip pain and really bad heartburn towards the end so I guess it balanced itself out.
I'm 7 weeks and feel like I have a hangover. I could sleep all week long and STILL be tired. Since week 5, my stomach is constantly churning -- no appetite whatsoever which I'm convinced contributes to me feeling worse. I have two active toddlers I stay home with and feel awful that I can't be the 'fun mom' right now. Hoping this season passes soon!
I'm a little over 4 weeks. I'm starving, and exhausted but can't sleep. I have an aversion to coffee. That's how I knew I was pg besides the peeing every 5 minutes. I switched to decaf today and could only finish 1/2 a cup. Some loose stool. More clear discharge than normal. And more mucus in my nose. Oh lord, and the gas!!!!!! I can't remember if I had it this bad w any other pregnancy. Pregnancy is all glamour!!!
6w6d and here are my symptoms: nausea, food aversions, exhaustion, sore boobs (can't even stand to have water running on them in the shower), mood swings, food cravings (eggs and chocolate milk). early on i had some spotting and cramping, but it resolved.
I am about 5 weeks. I have never been so consistently hungry in my life, and I can definitely relate in the bloating catagory, my jeans are so uncomfortable!
I'm 4 weeks and have really sore boobs, mild cramping, a little off my food but nothing major. To be honest o think I'm getting off lightly! Have my first doctors appt tomorrow, really just want someone else to confirm my news!
Sorry @jonesl12 Try some saltines and ginger ale if you can! I've noticed that when I have an empty stomach it makes it worse! Try to keep something down there. Hang in there!!

Ginger ale in hand . I'll stop and get some saltines on my way home from my ultrasound tonight. Thank you !!!
I am 6 weeks today. Weeks 4/5 I had mild cramping and sore boobs and tiredness. Today and yesterday the nausea and slight vommitting set in. I had two days of brown discharge the end of week five which scared me. My boobs and nipples are still tender and I'm super tired.
Just 4 weeks here! No symptoms at all! Only knew to test as we were actively trying. Last pregnancy was pretty chill for the first trimester - i was just tired. Hoping for that again!
6w1d Are anyone hands falling asleep SUPER easy? I mean like if I leave my arm bent deeply at the elbow (while texting this on my phone for instance) they go tingly in about 30 seconds. It's crazy!!! Other than that-- giant porno boobs and some sleepiness but nothing out of control (except the boobs). Had weird dreams a week back but not since . Enjoying it so far (only slightly sick in the morning- hoping it stays that way!

I'm on the same boat as you. 7 weeks today, minimal symptoms to speak of. Sometimes I worry about it, but then at the end of the day I consider myself lucky. My mom didn't have symptoms with me or my sister so I am using genetics to rationalize it. (Btw I have also taken more HPTs just to make sure

I'm 7w due April 12 and have similar worries! I can't win either way though. Symptoms worry me, and no symptoms worry me! I called my doctors office (that I haven't even been to yet) because I suddenly stopped feeling horrible and was worried this meant something was wrong. It was really reassuring to talk to them about it. You should try calling your docs office for some reassurance!
5 and a half weeks. Lots of bloat. I had some mild cramping on and off and tender breasts last week. I'm extremely moody. I find myself very angry over nothing and feeling extremely guilty over everything that has to do with my son. I seriously spent time today researching his high school (he'll be two next month) and feeling guilty that it *might* not be good enough. I know it's hormones but they are hitting really hard this time.
Oh and my mother-in-law!! Anything and everything that woman says is sending me over the edge!! She already asked if she can be in the delivery room. She's demanding to know the gender when we find out. When I told her we may not tell everyone, she got upset. She's upset I haven't told her other son. I mean, he doesn't like kids and he's so involved in himself that he wouldn't really care anyway. Today she sent me an email addressed to her son, his girlfriend, my husband and then me. I got upset because I was last on the list. I seriously got angry over being last on the list. I mean, the email was more for Jeremy and his GF since they are long distance and it had to do with cheap flights. But I was seriously angry over it. I'm hoping I can get the attitude in check soon.
I'm 4.5 weeks, and I've been having crazy lower back pain the past few days, sometimes accompanied by leg and calf pain. I usually get minor lower back pain during PMS, but this is much, much worse. Currently have a warm water bottle tucked behind the small of my back! I've had a little fatigue and boob soreness, but nothing too crazy.
I didn't have any symptoms but a little pain. Today I went for the u/s to rule out an ectopic pregnancy for that same reason! And there it was with its tiny heart beating away! I'm also due April 8th. Stay positive! Soon you'll see you're little bean as well!
I called my office, where I am a new patient, and the nurse was very unhelpful. I then needed to make some scheduling changes and the "main scheduler", as they call her, was so helpful and reassuring. She just kept saying if you arent bleeding and cramping then enjoy your pregnancy. I will update soon, as we go Monday for our office visit. I am so grateful to all of you!! I keep saying to myself "today you are pregnant". My partner, bless his heart, is sick of buying box after box of EPT's
7 weeks today. Nausea has set in...no vomiting. Sore boobs...tired...peeing alot. Slight headache and my hips are sore from stretching. Love the first tri.
I was nauseous the day I was supposed to start my period and have been on and off ever since (am 8 weeks 3 days today). The nausea comes and goes but all in a day. I have vomiting but only in week 5. Boobs growing like crazy and very sore. Stomach already protruding and I can't really hide it anymore. Am starting to look at maternity clothes. I'm in holidays now and thank goodness. I'm so so tired!! This is not my first pregnancy. I'm 43. Last time I knew right away it was a boy. This time I really can't get a sense and the only thing I seem to intuit is that there are two in there. Goodness gracious. I'm an only child who had wrapped her mind around raising an only child. Life is full of surprises. Oh and this time I am waaaayyy more emotional. We went whale watching and I was in tears I thought it was so beautiful.
