I'll go! My pregnancy symptom is fatigue and just the general feeling of 'coming down with the flu', which is probably just my body adjusting to the hormones but jeez! I don't recall feeling like this with DS1 until 8 weeks or so.
I also skipped out on DS1's bedtime routine last night to go to the store and buy kosher dill pickles and Genoa salami - like WTH. I put on way too much weight last pregnancy so I really hope I was just having an off night. I'm sure I looked pretty suspicious going through check out at 8:30pm with 4 jars of pickles
Nauseous and I've had heartburn already, which I also have a love for spicy foods so partly my fault. I've definitely been very tired, I would love to just binge watch Bravo and sit on the couch but my FT job and toddler don't really let that happen. Sore boobs and I'm even getting my little bumps back around my areolas which I had first gotten towards the end of my last pregnancy. Even though I might not be feeling great, it makes me smile because I know it's because I'm prego!
BOOBS. They are huge, heavy, and sore. I'm already fairly chesty so this is quite the development happening over here.
Otherwise, I feel pretty okay. My skin is breaking out and I'm pretty tired, but in general I feel good. Cramping is come and go but they mostly seem to have stopped.

I have so many, which I did not expect this early on.
I have not worked out since just before I got my BFP because I get so exhausted so quickly. I will punch on a bag for 2 minutes and have to walk away out of breath and just done.
I feel sick after almost everything I eat, like it's a rock sitting in my stomach, and that's when I feel like eating. Sometimes it is nausea afterwards also. Some mornings I wake up nauseated.
I pee so much! Especially at night. I never used to get up in the middle of the night, now I do once 1-3 times a night.
I have pregnancy brain like woah. I forget so much so easily.
ETA: SUPER sore boobs, and now I have random moments where my nipples definitely hurt.
Random nausea. Sometimes it occurs while I'm eating something that smelled and tasted so good a second ago.
The thirst and the peeing. So much water.
I can't eat sugar. I normally would be downing all the leftover Halloween candy, but the thought of doing that turns my stomach. Not even chocolate.
I also forgot how to get to the RE's office this morning for my blood draw. That was a scary moment.

I'm with @peachy13, my boobs are already falling out of my bras. I have never felt so liberated as I do now when I get home from work and take my bra off.
And @babydancer, I'm also getting queasy and experiencing heartburn if I eat spicy foods. Luckily the nausea seems to go away if I eat frequently.
I can't stop drinking water either!! I am always thirsty. Not that it's unhealthy to drink a ton of water, but I am hoping my body will catch on soon that I am not dehydrated so that I can cut back just a bit. Hope your beta with the RE went well! I was there myself this am for blood too.
Other than that I really don't have many symptoms. Random boob pain and some dizziness but otherwise I feel pretty good.
Oh like a million but I have since the TWW so or for the course.
I am exhausted and have taken a nap 5 days in a row either after work or before more work. My exercise tolerance sucks and I come from being extremely active. I'm already slowing down in swim practice and my heart rate shoots up so quickly in crossfit I have to walk around until it hits baseline again. I wasn't really active last time around so this is new for me. Also nausea is creeping in I expect by week 6 or 7 to be full blown. And I've had a cold and fluey symptoms since 1dpo as I said in my ticket change which is awesome and causes me to mouth breathe. And very sore boobs and vacillating between wanting to everything and nothing at the same time. And I will likely have to give in to maternity pants soon due to the bloat which is crazy. And of course mad peeing and the mild cramping on and off.
It's so crazy to me to have so many symptoms because I have always been told that before the 6/7 week mark you don't notice anything. I will take all the symptoms though for this little pumpkin growing inside me
OMG. I had an apple yesterday, no problem. Skin and all. Today...all I taste is soap. I scrubbed the skin of the apple before I sliced it this morning. If I can't have an apple because of this taste thing...I will not be happy.

I mentioned most of it in the FTM check in but count me in for the boob/nipple pain! I am also pretty "well-endowed" and I never realized how frequently my boobs brush up against my desk until now because it hurts every time! I'm also peeing a lot, and nausea is increasing. Both last night and today at lunch I ate something delicious, only to then feel nauseated later just at the thought of that same food. I didn't get to finish my lunch because of a meeting and I went back to finish it but I had to throw it out because the smell alone was killing me! I'm still keeping everything down so far, though. I used to have cramps but they have subsided. I get occasional back pains though. And I've been waking up around 4 am every morning no matter what time I go to bed.

I am so so so so very tired. The fatigue has hit me like a freight train. I'm taking naps with DD2 during the day and in bed before 9:30. It's ridiculous.
Sore/tender boobs. Nausea. Decreased appetite. And peeing a ton. I honestly did not feel this many symptoms with any of my pregnancies this early so I am praying that means baby is here to stay.

Kind of nervous about this because not much is going on. Bloat/larger boobs, but that's really it. Sometimes I get whiffs of awful smells. I'm nearly 6 weeks. Hope lack of symptoms is ok.
@theweevee everyone is different. Some people feel totally great their entire pregnancy, maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones! I know it's nerve-wracking in the beginning because you don't "feel pregnant" but symptoms don't indicate whether a pregnancy is healthy or not

Well my motion sickness has subsided considerably but I think that was from going off a medication I've taken for five years. Still some nausea, sore boobs, and oddly my abs are sore like I've done a hundred sit ups but I have done none. Oh, and I wake up 2-5 times a night. Which is awesome.
My symptoms come and go, I get a hint of something new every day. My boobs are HUGE and have been sore since ovulation, but at varying levels. One day it'll be horrific, the next, not so bad. Today was the first day my emotions feel out of control. I've had a few bouts of nausea, slight cramping and bloating, but it's different every day.
Full blown nausea since dinner last night. I've been pretty much worthless today, kids are taking over the house with all their toys and snacks. I won't complain because I want symptoms to keep my nerves at bay.
I'm so damn hungry. what the hell. imy not use to this. I could go all day without eating and then eat a small dinner. now I feel like I'm constantly hungry. and cravings already? I don't remember having cravings this early with my DS. And would this bloat please go away. i lok like I'm atleast 4 months. my husband keeps thinking I'm farther along but that's impossible. we got pregnant the first month off birth control. ugh. and then the usual breast tenderness, naseuea and fatigue. rant over lol.
I'm still feeling pretty normal, but having short waves of nausea and REALLY VERY GASSY. I also go zero to a hundred, hunger wise. I'm very uninterested in food until I'm all the sudden RAVENOUS.

I swear I just had a baby 9 months ago and I feel like I'm brand new at this again. My boobs have been tingling and I'm exhausted beyond belief. I'm super dizzy too actually and kind of feel like I'm in la la land. My tummy has also been quite upset today, which sucks. I should be happy I'm not constipated yet, I suppose
Last night as I lay exhausted on the couch, both dogs lie with me next to my stomach/lower abdomen. It was cute.
I am starting a list of foods that my body is not liking. First on the list is sautéed peppers and onions. They tasted SO GOOD last night. I have always been able to handle them with no issues. I had issues this morning.

Anyone else restless at night and wake up sweaty? A couple of nights I've woken up not quite drenched but noticeably sweaty on my chest and back. I've read this is common in the early first trimester because of hormonal changes...also I like to bundle up for bed so that could be part of it, since last night was unseasonably warm.
I have noticed I'm a lot more restless during the night, especially when I look at my FitBit tracker. I hadn't put two-and-two together until now. Makes sense.
And I have reached the tingly boob stage. I'm a little nervous about how big they're going to get. I'm already a 42DD/DDD.

Yes! My body is definitely going through some strange temperature regulation, both at night and during the day.
@theweevee the best advice is do not compare pregnancies, either to others or your own. I was sick as a dog for my daughter and my son felt like I wasn't pregnant at all. I remember mentioning that fact once to my doctor and she cut me off before I could even finish and said "we do not compare pregnancies". It is also good advice when the little one comes - don't worry and beat yourself up over how other babies are developing or how other families are parenting. I can tell you the moment I stopped comparing my babies to others I was so much happier and enjoyed everything so much more.
I feel a lot better than last week actually. I can't keep my temperature steady though, I'm either freezing or boiling and my husband and kids are suffering through me changing the thermostat and opening and closing Windows non stop.
crazy dreams, tired, waking up earlier than I normally do, tender boobs, night sweats. Luckily haven't had much in the way of sickness, but it may just be a matter of time...
@pepper16 that must be terrible!! I love that gif though! @dcwtada I need to take that advice in not comparing myself to others!! That was the first thing my mom said when I told her I had been going Google-crazy. She even said her pregnancy with me was much different than with my sister. It's definitely hard not to compare though!
