Any symptoms yet?

stephweinstein · October 2015

Is anyone experiencing any symptoms yet? If so, what are they?

For me I feel crampiness, here and there nausea and tender boobs. Hope everyone is feeling well!

noelietrex · October 2015

Yay! Finally symptom spotting is ON! I feel you with sore boobs- I have that one but feels the same as PMS sore that's just lasting too long. Also feeling hot and thirsty (lips keep getting super chapped) and idk if it's hormones or drinking extra water but I have to pee every 1-2 hours. Already waking up in the middle of the night to pee. Hope you're all feeling well, but man I do love a good symptoms thread

MsBeachNJ · October 2015

Yes! I've been soooo tired for the last week, like fall asleep anywhere tired, and my back/shoulders/neck are very sore. I also feel like I've gained 10 pounds in the last week or so... my pants are already tight!

mckcak23 · October 2015

I think so? Haha. I have had some cramping. I really enjoyed Coca Cola before I found out so I have been drinking a lot of water to try to trick myself to not go into caffeine withdrawals (or at least that's what I'm telling myself) therefore I am peeing all the time. I have had a lot of heartburn which is abnormal but not unheard of for me.

Howardbae2015 · October 2015

I had 2 previous MC and don't remember feeling nauseous this early on, but the last few days I have had a sour stomach (not to the point of actually throwing up). It makes me not want to eat anything though. I have also been taking my left over progrsterone so that may have something to do with it.

joyful08 · October 2015

I am exhausted all the time! I've been waking up late and going to bed early when I can. I've also had continuous cramps since I found out but they are only minor. Oh and my favorite is the bloating

Singingmama10 · October 2015

My boobs have been a little sore. I mostly notice it when I take off my bra at night. And I have had a tiny bit of heartburn... I really hope it's not as bad as the heartburn I had with DS. That was horrible!!!! Oh and I have been drinking way more water.

Ugh. The bloating. I can already feel it!

Christal161 · October 2015

It seems this pregnancy will have more symptoms then last time! The last pregnancy, I had no symptoms (other than my missed period).
Now, I have sore nipples (i notice a few days ago), I feel sick and I wake up during the night with heart burn (I didn't even have heart burn last time).

knitmama · October 2015

My boobs have been sore and hot for a week! H said he actually felt them radiating heat when I snuggled up to him yesterday. Other than, feeling pretty normal. AF would have been due tomorrow. I'm honestly a bit terrified she'll show up, even though I got a positive test yesterday. The pink line was really light, but I don't think it's possible to get a positive line on a FRER without HCG in your system. I'll test again tomorrow to ease my mind.

tinypikachu · October 2015

I've been having a few symptoms. I've been peeing a lot, constipated (sorry if TMI!), nausea on and off but not too often, (very) vivid dreams, bloating so bad I've already started using my belly band and the hair tie on the jeans trick, cramps and sore boobs on and off. I've hated the cramps I've been getting, they seem to get worse when I haven't had a bowel movement in awhile but they're annoying and worry me sometimes.

TBH, I had no idea pregnancy came with menstrual-like cramps, but I've come around as I know it's normal. I've had weird spasm-like tugging around the uterine area when I get up that can get painful but it's not as high up as the cramps are and, thankfully, no spotting. One of my friends told me her pregnancy cramps were way worse than her period cramps. I've just been trying to drink more water to see if it helps

tinypikachu · October 2015

Forgot to add, I don't know if anyone else has had this but I've also had terrible urticaria (itchy hives) that started around 6 or 7 DPO. I've read it can last a few weeks or the entire pregnancy so that's something else I've been having.:)

susykat77 · October 2015

My boobs are so sore! I also had a bout with vertigo but now mostly just dizzy every so often. My sense of smell is out of hand (that started 2 days before I got my BFP) and I've been feeling a bit queasy off and on. Honestly, the symptoms make me feel better (I know that sounds weird) because after all the fertility treatments,I am still a little in shock that I am actually pregnant!

@susykat77- Congrats on your pregnancy. Has the thought crossed your mind on twins?

EasterEggs · October 2015

I have sore breasts, some light cramping, and am feeling more tired than normal. Yesterday morning I had a wave of nausea that sent me running for the bathroom but it went away and hasn't returned.

WinchestertoPittsburgh · October 2015

Anyone else for back pain?

joleri23 · October 2015

My breasts have been ridiculously sore, and I've had cramping. I feel sleepy. No real crazy nausea yet - gagging here and there, which could be nerves - but I've had some food aversions. I'm not normally picky about food but suddenly nothing sounds great.

crdo · October 2015

I got hit by the fatigue freight train on Friday, and all I have wanted to do since is lay around and sleep.

I've experienced some light cramping on and off, bloating, and frequent urination so far.

No boob soreness or nausea to speak of (yet).

stephweinstein · October 2015

I didn't crave anything last pregnancy and I didn't expect cravings to come so soon but if I don't get a steak, I'm going to cry!

I've had a bit of period-like cramps in my lower back.

chelseakae07 · October 2015

We should start doing a daily symptoms thread and add a GTKY question!

stephweinstein · October 2015

There are also specifically bump days that BMBs do.

We could do those here!

Hump Day Bump Day! But we'll have to wait till 2nd trimester. Before that, it's just bloat. Not looking forward to the blump.

chelseakae07 · October 2015

I like Ticker Change days too! But do we do tickers anymore? I haven't seen too many...

I found out 6 or 7 days ago and I took another test this morning just to make sure I'm still pregnant! That makes 7 tests total. You're not the only one.

Thanks for this! I've taken a ridiculous number of tests already. I got a super early result with DD, and I kept thinking it'd be the same this time. I'm not the most patient of people, either. :-S

stephweinstein · October 2015

Should I start a new thread to ask everyone what days they would like each weekday to be?

noelietrex · October 2015

Does complete and total inability to focus at work count as a symptom?

LOL oh man, I know what you mean. I have been in permanent fantasy land since finding out three days ago. Work is definitely going to suffer for a while...

Yep! Pregnancy is the excuse for all the things!

jennyleigh16 · October 2015

I've had the cramps since about 6 DPO but they've finally seemed to let up a bit. I've had the nipple soreness/ boob tingling in the last couple of days, lower back pain, waves of nausea and gagging but no vomiting yet, frequent urination...

I haven't had the fatigue like I'm falling asleep but I have been sluggish and I woke up this morning feeling like I got hit by a truck, just sore everywhere.

I've also burst into tears twice in the last 24 hours, so there's that. My poor husband.

Love this! We should! I think we should do something like:

How far along?

When's your next appointment?

Symptoms? (Or rants

)

GTKY

I 've taken a bunch of tests already too. I fwent out yesterday and got one of the ones that actually said pregnant. I finally believed that one. At least until tomorrow when I freak out again and take another

I think I'll believe it when my doctor confirms it. And then I'll freak out again until my u/s, and then again until I start to show, and then again until I feel the baby...lol. It's still so surreal.

SparkySunshine · October 2015

I guess I'm the odd one out! I only tested once. Once it popped up "pregnant" I thought well what the heck do I do with the other one that came in the box? (2 pack)

Singingmama10 · October 2015

I actually got a fetal doppler with my DS.... yep I'm paranoid but it was AWESOME. It was about $50 and worth every penny. It eased so many nerves. They do warn you though when you get to feeling kicks don't count on the just the heartbeat if you notice baby isn't moving... still go in and get checked out. but yeah I recommend the doppler to ease your mind. I think I got mine around 13 weeks and always found the heartbeat myself.

chelseakae07 · October 2015

My first digital yesterday came up as Not Pregnant after a ton of wondfo positives! This morning I took the second digital test and it came up as Pregnant, thank goodness! I think everyone tests way too early with digitals?

THIS. I work from 5:45am-1:15pm most days and I'm going to school in the evenings. I haven't touched my textbooks since last Thursday.... Ugh

NamelessAria · October 2015

@ neolietrex: I think we could probably go ahead and start blaming that on baby brain! I've been totally scatter brained lately. I'm usually so good about making sure everything goes back to its place and such. I'm slightly OCD and pretty organized and together. However, lately I've been losing things left and right and I'm just kinda... ditsy. DH has been giving me a hard time about it. I'm not sure when "baby brain" is really supposed to start but I'm pretty sure now that my mind is so occupied with all things baby there just isn't as much room for everything else. Ya know, all the "can I eat this? Is all this cramping normal. Can I take anything for that safely? How should I tell my family? How should I tell DH's family? Will I be a good mom? When should I start shopping for maternity clothes?" and so on.

@WinchestertoPittsburgh: I've been having back pain also. It's gotten a bit better since the beginning of week 4 but I've also eased up some on my daily workout and started sleeping with an extra pillow between my legs to help my back out. I had a couple of nights where my back hurt so bad it woke me up out of the dead sleep and I had to pace my bedroom for a bit while I waited for the Tylenol I took to start working.

I noticed I had 2 or 3 days of very mild nausea during week 3 around when I found out. Nothing really since then. Here's to hoping I'm one of the people who don't really have morning sickness. I suspect it's just waiting for week 6 to start or something.

Also, like someone else said: I had no idea being pregnant came with menstrual like cramps. I've literally been cramping everyday since about 8DPO when I suspect implantation happened since I got my BFP on 10DPO. I know it's normal but still...

Otherwise, not too much going on for symptoms. Some very mild nipple soreness, occasional heartburn (which pre-pregnancy I literally got maybe 5 times in my entire life and usually after eating something really spicy), a little gas and that's about it. At 4w, 6d I'm a little worried I don't have more symptoms, honestly.
