July 2016 Moms

Hello! 5weeks 2 days!

Hello. I am new to this app. I am 31 and will be 32 in December. I am 5 weeks and it's my first pregnacy. We are very excited. It's so great to read everyone's posts. So..... Any helpful ideas on how to stay sane until my first appointment November 23rd ( I'll be a little over 8 weeks). Everytime I pee I check to make sure no blood... I analyze every little cramp I feel, and it does not help that I have 0 symptoms (besides tender breasts that comes and goes). So I don't really feel pregnant. Any one else have these problems ? Lol

Re: Hello! 5weeks 2 days!

  • Welcome and congratulations! I am in the same boat, a little bit of cramping every so often and sore boobs on and off. Not really feeling pregnant either, but it's way better than vomiting all of the time :-)

  • Welcome and congrats!

    The first few weeks of pregnancy are super nerve-wracking. Try not to over analyze every twinge. Much easier said than done I know. This is my 4th and I still get nervous.

  • Congrats!

    I feel the EXACT same way. My only symptoms are a late period and some cramps and bloating. The cramps really freak me out, I'm also always checking for blood. My doc appt isn't until the 30th. :-/

    It has really been a relief to me that so many others are experiencing the same symptoms and nerves, I know I'm not alone!
  • Congratulations! 
    I am the same way! I keep reminding myself to think positive since the stress of worrying is obviously not healthy for us! Hope you can have some peace soon!

  • I'm 5 weeks and 3 days today with my first.  We had our first transvaginal ultrasound today and saw our little yolk sac!  Our doctor does one weekly until she's sure it's viable.  I was having cramps up until last week, mostly just really sore breasts and tired.  Only about 3 random episodes of mild nausea.  The doctor said I'm lucky I'm not experiencing anything bad yet!  It is still so surreal though since I hardly feel any different. 

  • Congrats to you and welcome! Try to enjoy being symptom-free while it lasts. The symptoms truly suck and I'm still checking for blood every time I wipe. Also I don't buy into all the "don't worry" stuff. I stressed the ENTIRE time we were TTC and still feel worried and stressed now. I don't think it actually affects anything. Make your lists! Do your planning! Creating a million pinterest boards and registries is a great outlet for all the nervous energy. Good luck to you and hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months!

    Hi and welcome! Enjoy no symptoms bc honestly once they start it's crappy. Once you start to get them though it may or may not ease the anxiety. That's part of the reason I like to participate on TB - it gives me a great outlet to vent and talk to others. 

    Edit - words are hard

  • I was much the same. Slight occasional cramping, on off sore boobs, bloating and so so so tired.after a mmc 5mths ago I was getting worried that things might not be progressing. Low and behold, 5w3d today the nausea started
  • 4w6d. Biggest symptom: frequent urination & bloating. The more bloated, the more it adds to the need to pee, lol! I went from going once every 5-6 hours and sleeping through the night to 30-60 min all day and up three times at night - but this started at 10 DPO! Also had some annoying cramping too, constant. So I guess I'm lucky that I definitely FEEL pregnant, but I was more ready to handle nausea than this peeing constantly business. I normally have a weak stomach and high gag reflex, so I expected to spend the 1st trimester in the bathroom, but for different reasons.
