I'm 4+2 today. Haven't really had many symptoms. A bit crampy here and there but nothing outrageous. A little constipated maybe and definately experiencing the joy of luekhhorea or however the hell that is spelled. I've been super greasy/oily on my face, scalp, etc but that's normal TWW stuff for me. Surprisingly not too emotional and no sore boobs yet. Except maybe my nipples.
Honestly I think in pretty much normal right now. I fear morning sickness and heartburn.
MS just started for me a few days ago, but it's more like afternoon/evening sickness. Right after lunch and then gets worse until I go to bed, just so I can't notice it anymore! Almost barfed up breakfast this morning.
I've never been so pleased to feel like such hot garbage!
This morning I had a smidge of spotting again. I called my midwife, and they are having me come in for an ultrasound today. I feel like a total basket case; my H can't come, and I know there's a good chance they won't see much anyway at just 6 weeks. I feel like regardless of how this goes, I'm going to need to develop some better coping strategies for the unknowns of pregnancy (and later parenthood). Not sure this quite a symptom but also wasn't sure it needed its own thread.
@Xstatic3333 good luck man. I had a ton of spotting early in with my first. Like every time I struggle poo'd I bled. So hopefully you just have a sensitive cervix or something.

Thank you so much. I know there's still every possibility everything is ok. The waiting part of pregnancy just sucks, and I know I've got a long way to go!
@Xstatic3333 , everything crossed for a great update!

You guys are the best. This is a great BMB! The ultrasound showed a sac consistent with a 5 wk 2 day pregnancy, and a very small sub chorionic hematoma. I'll have a repeat next Friday but every reason to stay optimistic for now. Thank goodness for Fertility Friend; though I have 28-30 day cycles I know from temping that I usually ovulate between days 16-18, so the dating makes sense. Now I just have to figure out how to change my ticker. Thanks so much for all the positive thoughts!
@Xstatic3333 it is great that everything went well. I think SCH aren't incredibly common but also not rare. It is good you have an idea of what is going on and every reason to be optimistic.
I had a pretty large SCH with my last pregnancy and it didn't go away for a long time.
@WorkingOnMyNightCheese Ha! Hot garbage. I'm sorry you feel shitty, but I'm keeping everything crossed it means the best for you. I really feel pretty normal. I guess I'm just really thirsty the last two days though. Come on symptoms! I would appreciate a *little* reassurance!

I was feeling the same way- other than fatigue and sore boobs, I really didn't have much in the way of proof. Then a couple of days ago, all at once: boob stretch marks, increased leuk, all the bloating and supersmell. Okay, body, I get it!

I feel like UTIs just come with pregnancy. It's good you had it checked out so they can get you back to feeling as good as possible
I had never had one until my 4th pregnancy (at 34) and now this one. They are a lot more common than I thought.
Wow that's good luck or I just have bad luck. My first pregnancy I had one so bad I didn't even notice it anymore. Thought it was gone but Dr said yikes! And I had 1 my second pregnancy as well. Sure hope this time I can skip it.

I was crazy thirsty for 3 days, then it leveled off

The boobs, the crankiness, the FULLTIME salsa consumption I have going on that I'd like to blame on hormones and not just bad life choices. I'm so thirsty (I'm sure that is unrelated to my salsa dinner). Pretty much everything @HarryPotterandCats has said on this thread speaks to me.
I think that cravings have officially begun... And maybe MS. It seems anytime I go a little too long between meals I get nauseated. Tonight, I really wanted a chicken sandwich and a salad. I haven't eaten a chicken sandwich from BK in over a year, but man it sounded good!
+1 on the spicy food, also lemon water. It is the only thing I care to drink, and normally I am a sweet tea enthusiast. Got my normal half and half tea this morning... nope. Give me back the lemon water.
At least I'm cutting the processed sugar and caffeine...
It seems LO didn't want me to worry too much after yesterday's spotting episode, because MS officially arrived this morning. I feel like I've got a college-level hangover. I won't complain, though!
Just over 5 weeks here...and having a heck of a time. With my first son, I never had any nausea...this time around is a whole different story. I actually left work early yesterday because I just could not handle it anymore. Taking diclectin and using natural remedies as well...bringing little relief. Needless to say, I am tired all the time and a little emotional!

Another one here for the spicy anything! I normally love spicy food but it's gotten even stronger the last few days. So far everything has tasted really really good rather than having any aversions. Hoping it'll stay like this although realistically I know I'll probably get hit with aversions/bad smells and MS any day...
I have become a full time fart machine, which is super embarrassing at work lol. Also, My sense of smell is apparently starting to change, I took a shower this morning and used the same body wash that I have used for years and it smelled SO HORRIBLE I about had to jump out of the shower. Looks like I'm buying new body wash today

@scifichick09 with my first this was by far my worst symptom. It got worse as the day went on. I used to go to the bathroom about every 30 minutes just to pass gas.
I am still early on this time but I bought preemptive beano to start taking to help with the situation!
The sore boobs, the amazing sense of smell, peeing all the time. But I'm also craving water all the time. my carpal tunnel is flaring up. (I only got it when I was pregnant with DS and it flared up when I was about 4-5months. so it's flaring up way early!) Nauseous if I don't eat anything for a long period of time. but then heartburn at night that makes me want to puke.
I've been having this weird, random shooting pain in my stomach today. It's been starting at my belly button going down just randomly all day. Different from cramps and no spotting so that's good. It's just weird.
Add another for crazy thirst and a never ending hunger.
based on my weight (which is slightly less than where I began my last pregnancy, but not by much) my doctor recommends only gaining about 10 lbs. I did really well last time and hit exactly 10, so I am hoping to again this time - but this hunger is out of control!
