    How far along are you? 3 wks 5 days, or 4 wks and a cpl of days... also, that might mean I'll end up due in August but I'm kind of going between boards!

    How are you feeling? Bouts of nausea here and there, nothing too bad. Heightened sense of smell and sore boobs, just around the sides and bottom though. And I've been so tired!

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: we told the parents this weekend but now I'm so scared something is going to happen. Slightly regretting telling them so soon

    Questions about your symptoms: is it normal to have cravings this soon or is it all in my head? I don't usually want sweets but I want chocolate and cookies all the time! Was everyone this paranoid about a CP? Cause I'm worried every day! My test lines didn't get darker and I'm waiting to hear about my 2nd set of HCG tests and I'm freaking. Definitely wish I would have found out later in my pregnancy

    How are you feeling? I had a migraine last night. It's still lingering and ruining my life.

    Questions about your symptoms: Anyone have ideas to help with migraines during pregnant? I've never had one this bad, I almost went to the ER. I couldn't move last night without vomiting.

  • **Question**

    How far along are you? 7+3 going off my scan


    How are you feeling? Oh so tired.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: I saw my baby on Friday! I didn't think I would cry, but I totally did. HR 148 & measuring right on time with my last cycle

    Questions about your symptoms something else: How does one go about finding a doula? My OB didn't have much to say and the Google seems like I'm just picking a person. I don't know anyone who has used one. Is there a site that rates doulas?

    How far along are you? 4w6d

    How are you feeling? Not too shabby. Queasy every now and then but nothing to call home about. Pretty tired and my back is sore. Little bit of cramps. Nothing scary or big.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: Week from tomorrow (November 30) is my 6 week viability scan. This is my second pregnancy, and the first pregnancy we lost in September. We have yet to have a good ultrasound. Super nervous but also excited. Mixed emotions for sure.

    @SDSwenson I understand the regret from telling family so early. My last pregnancy we told our immediate family early at 5 weeks and when we later lost the pregnancy they were a huge support to us. I always think that if it's someone who you would want the support of if, heaven forbid, something happened, then I would tell them. That's just me though, everyone is different. And like you, I found out about my pregnancy earlier than I would have liked but try to choose joy and be positive and remember that today you are pregnant :)
  • How far along are you? 5w3d

    How are you feeling? A little emotional today. Queasy on/off, very mild cramps on/off, tired and gassy.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: I wish it was Dec. 3rd already!!! That is when we go for another ultrasound. On a positive note this is the farthest we have gotten in a pregnancy soooo.....so far so good!!!!

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any) None really.....just keep telling myself everything I'm feeling is normal as long as there is no spotting/bleeding (had two miscarriages before).

  • How far along are you? 4 Weeks 5 Days

    How are you feeling? Exhausted, moody, horrible headaches, scared and blessed to be pregnant.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: After my last m/c I am hoping this baby sticks so I can announce at Christmas..

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any) Anyone having symptoms that disappear? My sore boobs come and go...
  • How far along are you? 5w 3d

    How are you feeling? Great. The breast soreness is at an all new level of awfulness though. If that's my only complaint then I'm happy lol.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: I decided to tell many of my coworkers since I want to really enjoy this and be happy and not keep it all a secret. It's fun to be excited and talk about it!

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any). Nothing really. I just enjoy reading this thread and knowing I'm not alone :)

    Pretty much in the exact same boat, @orangecrayon! I'm 4w+5 today and paranoid AF. Wanting to tell the family at Christmas, so I'm praying little baby stays strong and makes it through these uncertain weeks! My symptoms seem to come and go too. The nausea, back aches, headaches, and sore boobs are there, just not nearly as intense these past few days.
  • @SDSwenson I was very paranoid about a cp in the beginning but every day that passes I feel more and more confident and now I don't even think about that anymore. Cravings are probably not in your head but also not something you have to give into every time. I am a permanent WW member so it's hard for me to not eat all the food now that I'm not on a diet anymore!

    @orangecrayon yea, sometimes my symptoms come and go. Early on I had more cramps and those have not come back. I also had a heightened sense of smell that went away fairly quickly. Your hormone levels fluctuate a bit plus you will adapt to the changes going on so its natural to feel that way.

  • 4 weeks today!

    Feel fine, until I smell something.

    Rave/positive vibes: got a Beta yesterday! 485 :smiley:

    Only question about symptoms I would ask is about bloating. The other day, I felt like I had to poop, but I clearly didn't need to. Is that what bloating feels like?

  • @KASG I think it's different for everyone. Bloating for me feels like I'm fat and poochy where usually my belly is flat. Some peoples rings don't fit or they retain fluid in legs or face.

  • @elledel Yay a due-date buddy!! I'm sure it's normal, but having such a fresh loss I'm a bundle of nerves. Hope that you'll be able to see your baby soon..I'm hoping to make it past 6 weeks which is a milestone for me!

    Happy & Healthy 9 months!
  • My back is killing me and my headache might just be part of my life for the next nine months. Being stuck in the car all day doesn't help! I have to pee but we said we didn't want to stop until we got to Wyoming which is in 52 miles. Ugh I hope I don't pee myself
  • @KASG my bloating feels like being 4 months pregnant, belly super distended and hard especially in the evening. When I wake up I have my normal flat belly and by 7pm it's back again!

    @dolewhipper for the doula references I have one friend that gave me recommendations, so maybe ask around when you'll announce your pregnancy. Maybe some people in your area have good advices.

    @orangecrayon : I feel my symptoms are more noticeable after dinner. I know that some hormones (I think progesterone levels, varie during the day so it might be related)

    @sboston06 Like you, It really ease my mind when I see I'm not the only one having worries!

    How far along are you? Somewhere between 4+6 (based on what I think ovulation date was) and 5+6 (LMP)


    How are you feeling? Tired, bloated and peeing every 30 minutes. Beside all this great ;)

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: I have my first ultrasound Tuesday and I have mix feelings. Really stress about them not seing anything/ telling me it's ectopic (totally irrational fear) and excited to see the little poppyseed. I'm also looking forward to start the blood thinner. I get nervous when my legs get painful, even if I know it's very unlikely to get clots at this point

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any). Anyone else having ton of cervical mucus???

  • 6 weeks and 2 days

    Feeling tired and very hungry every couple of hours, but otherwise just minor breast tenderness.

    Looking forward to a short work week :)

    No questions.
  • How far along are you? 4w3d

    How are you feeling? Not too bad, sore boobs, and today I'm less crampy than the past couple days, which is good, but on the downside, I've had a couple little waves of nausea today.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: Not pg related, but I just went to the grocery store and got all my Thanksgiving groceries! Done in 45 minutes, got everything I needed (plus some salted caramel hot chocolate K-cups), yay!

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any) none today

  • How far along are you? 8w2d

    How are you feeling? Blah.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: This insomnia is the worst! I am now needing naps during my lunch break at work, and it's freaking me out that I'm going to get in trouble. I'm sick of being SOOO exhausted
  • @jolydan Yep a fair amount of CM over here too, on and off. Nothing to worry about :)
  • How far along are you? I'm 5 weeks today

    How are you feeling? I'm feeling pretty good. Im excited to be here with you guys.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: This pregnancy seems to be a little different than last. I have a lot more energy than last time but I get waves of fatigue that knock me on my ass.

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any) so I'm not sure if my little bouts of morning sickness is in my head. (Sometimes) The moment I think about morning sickness my mouth starts salivating and I start dry heaving. I have yet to throw up. I don't know if the intrusive thoughts are to blame or I start to feel a little sick making me think morning sickness. I have no idea, I never had morning sickness during my first pregnancy.
  • How far along are you? 7W+6

    How are you feeling? Pretty good, my back hurts a bit today though. Not crazy about that. I have a desk job and I believe I need to request for an actual ergo chair. These chairs are just so uncomfortable! I could take it before, but I'd rather not be squirming around all day to get comfy if I'm pg.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes:  I seem to have this head cold that I absolutely cannot shake! My right ear feels/sounds clogged, like when you get off of an airplane. I have an appt with my dr on Tues so I'll ask her about it. Other than that, I'm all good! :)

  • @hallgire - the ear thing happened to me too on Thursday. I was afraid I was getting an ear infection after just getting over a head cold, but it went away after about a half hour. It was really annoying while it lasted though.

    I have my final beta tomorrow as well!!! We can wait anxiously together!
  • @sboston06 - yeah, it's super annoying!! I've had it for about a week and I'm starting to get a little worrisome. It doesn't hurt or cause me any pain, just annoyance as I can hardly hear out of it. I've never had an ear infection so I don't know what to look out for. I'm happy I have my appt on Tues so I can see what my OB says about it. I'm ready for it to go away!

  • How far? 7w1d

    Feeling? Woke up starving and thirsty. Otherwise just lazy. I took a long nap this afternoon & only woke up because DH was concerned if I was OK.

    Rant/Rave: anxiously awaiting for next follow-up tomorrow morning. Hoping all is as expected.

    Symptom Question: Does morning sickness just feel like nausea in your stomach? I don't have that at all, but often have this weird feeling in my throat which is hard to describe. The only way I can is like reflux without any burning or a weird lump I can't swallow. Just wondering if that is a symptom or maybe just related to slower digestion. Doesn't make me want to gag or anything, but I'm not a easy gagger or puker.

  • Thank you @sboston06 and @tennisbabymama you ladies are totally right! I'm just going to relax and try to to overthink! I'll know more tomorrow and there's nothing I can do. Everyone that were told would be beyond supportive if something was to happen!

    How are you feeling? Really pissy. Hormones are out of control and I swear if someone looks at the the wrong way they might not have a head attached to their neck. Other than that, I'm pretty awesome :).

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: I want to kill my DH. He says things he knows sets me off and then makes stupid comments after he does it. Then when I'm ignoring him because if I don't he's going to be in the spare bedroom tonight he asks me if I'm ignoring him. Yes, I'm ignoring you because I'm trying to not kill you.

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any) Anyone else not really symptomy? I have noticed my boobs are really veiny now though.

  • How far along are you? 4 weeks 6 days

    How are you feeling? Already. Nauseous. Ugh. And the heartburn...

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: I got blood work on Thursday morning because of spotting and called my OB office twice on Friday to see if they got the results. They didn't have them close to 36 hours after my blood draw! Which means I have to wait until Monday to get the result. I work in a hospital, so I'm used to getting blood work back almost immediately but I think its a little ridiculous to wait 4 days to get an HCG and progesterone back. Ok, done.

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any) Nope

    How are you feeling? Sore, sick and mad. Just about called one of my grade 10s a bitch. Caught it at the last moment and called her cranky.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: my year 10s suck. They had a speech in class today and no one thought to print it out before class. My sympathy level was 0.

    On a positive note my grade 11s are awesome. I just got my 3rd box of chocolates and Christmas cards with awesome messages. Makes me feel better.

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any) no questions just not looking forward to morning sickness stepping up.

    How far along are you? I am not sure. I had a miscarriage October 4th. I expected a period November 5th but it didn't come. Took a test the 7th but was negative. Had an ultrasound the 10th as a follow up from miscarriage and he said nothing about a pregnancy. Low and behold I took a pregnancy test yesterday the 20th and it was positive. Can a conceived pregnancy on the 10th be detected on the 20th or would conception have to occurred earlier than that?

    How are you feeling? Nauseous, heightened smell, sore boobs, a little tired. I sing on the worship team and told my husband today the microphone case stinks. I have never noticed it before.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: positive vibes to all for a happy and healthy 9 months!

    How are you feeling? Tired, excited, nervous, nauseous, overwhelmed

    Questions about your symptoms: Is anyone else experiencing diarrhea?! My nausea isn't turning into the normal throwing up but the other end of things and about to drive me crazy! I already don't want food, but I'm now afraid to eat anything. Anyone else having the same?
  • How far along are you? 7 weeks 3 days

    How are you feeling? Mainly exhausted, sore and want to curl up under a blanket all day.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: We will make it to the 2nd tri! Someway, somehow!

    Questions about your symptoms: I have an irrational fear of a MC or an ectopic pregnancy. I've been getting cramps but they're mostly on one side. Is this normal? They were in the middle at the beginning but now they are mostly on the left side.
  • @AndreaNYoung I've been having some diarrhea as well. I've been eating fruit and toast. It's helped a little, but definitely not enough. You're not alone!!
  • How far along are you? 5 weeks today!

    How are you feeling? Excited! And nervous. Ive had a bit of spotting but off to the doctor today! Waves of nausea and a tad irritable / emotional by times.

    Rants/raves or positive vibes: every passing day I am more confident and excited, nerves are subsiding :)

    Questions about your symptoms: (if any) technically today is Monday, but I was woken up by an orgasm and mild cramping.. Anyone else experiencing these?! Apparently it's due to raging hormones, but so yucky feeling!
