Re: Weekly Symptoms Thread 1/2

  • Overall feeling pretty good. Right now my biggest symptom is breast soreness. Last night I slept in a bra and that helped a lot.

  • I really wish my nausea would be consistent. I'll be great one day and feel like crap the next. I took B6 to see if it helped and it made me feel worse :(

  • My symptoms have lessened a lot which makes me nervous. Last week i was sick morning, noon, and night but the last few days ive had almost no nausea. Only symptoms im having is sore boobs and they are on and off. 
  • My boobs are doing pretty good. I bought some new/larger bras and they seem to help. If I eat too much to feel like poop so small meals are my bff right now. Also I think I need to switch vitamins, I think that is contributing to stomach pains.

  • Nausea is coming! Last time I had HG and it started at 6 weeks, now I'm 6+2 and I have nausea but it's manageable, only vomited once a day so far! I know it will prob get worse, but I'm appreciating every functioning day now! Ever since we found out I was pregnant, we've been dreading the 6 week mark... I've been preparing meals and doing as much prep as I could. I only hope I won't get it to the extent I did last time! 
  • I'm queasy but never throw up. I feel like all foods send me to the bathroom though so tiny meals, but I want to eat everything. I'm also in the mood to cook everything. 
    And I'm exhausted. Need daily naps. 
  • I'm usually a terrible sleeper (awake from 2-4 every night, then pop awake again at 6) but I've been sleeping like a rock, outside of pee breaks, and wanting to sleep in past 8, too. It's super weird, but it feels good. 
    Also, constant queasiness and some reflux, but yet to actually puke. 
    Weighed in 5 pounds above my usual this morning... could be bloating from my super salty dinner last night, or the barrage of Christmas treats that I've been "getting rid of" via my face. 
  • Also still have a ton of burps. I'm seriously burping all day long.

  • Headaches! I used to get hormonally triggered headaches when I was younger and these feel exactly the same as those. The only thing that helps is resting. 

    Slight nausea has kicked up in the past two days. I'll just get a wave of it and then it will pass quickly without getting worse. Since I'm only 5+5 I have a feeling that it's going to get worse in the coming days.

    Still have some cramping.

    and I pee all the time.

    So after having DD I had always had some redisual sciatic nerve pain when laying on my back for too long. Well this week laying or sitting on my right side makes from my bum to just above my right knee burn/go numb/ouch.. I've been doing some stretches and yoga until I can get in for my appointment this week any helpful advice?

  • Sick all the time, like crippling nausea.  If I'm not throwing up, I'm gagging.  Can't do this because I need to be a mommy to my 15 month old.  Just trying to at least keep liquids down.
  • I'm mostly flat out exhausted and still have random twinges. Lots of food aversions and just slight random nauseous feeling. Boob soreness varies, too. The most consistent symptom is definitely the exhaustion.

  • peeing all the time, always hungry.
    but oh - that constant nausea that feels like a 24hr hangover where you ask yourself "should i just throw up? will it make me feel better? no.. maybe if i snack/rest/etc it'll pass... ok, not so much... maybe i should just throw up?.."
    i go through that personal dialogue all. day. long.
    but i haven't actually thrown up yet. it's the worst when i'm laying down/resting.

    Q: does throwing up make you feel better? i'm assuming no?
  • This week for me, breasts are throbbing :confounded: nausea is still there majority of day.. I had 1 or 2 days this week it was less.

    It does if you're hung over but I refuse to think it will now. Lol
  • I feel pretty good!  This pregnancy is a little different from my last, or at least as I can remember! 

    The biggest symptom I have is breast tenderness!  I need to move up a size already!  I have little boats of nausea, I had morning sickness pretty rough with my first but I believe it start closer to 7 weeks!  So it could be on its way (5+6)! 

    The next symptom is the exhaustion!  I've never been so excited for my LO to take a nap!

    I also had HG with my last pregnancy, it too started as soon as 6wks hit. I was so nervous about getting to 6wks this time around. But this pregnancy is so different. I feel nauseous here and there, but I can actually eat and drink without throwing it up. However I am super tired all the time. I can't do stuff for too long because I get so exhausted and need to lay down. 
  • @bumpybump right there with you
  • All of this. Sick almost 24/7 - throwing up 1-2x a day. Exhausted. Waking up in the middle of the night feeling sick. Food sounds disgusting 99% of the time - currently trying to figure out how I'm going to manage this week'a grocery shopping when I can't think of any meals that don't sound horrible. 
  • No nausea yet (knock on wood), but the last couple of days I've had almost no appetite. I'm eating small meals because I know my body needs something but I never feel hungry. I'm also very bloated! I feel like i already have a bump to hide because of this bloat belly 
  • 6w4d.....still not seeing lot of symptoms which has me worried. Really only symptom I have seen are my breast have grown and my nipples are so sore. Should I be worried?
  • My only consistent symptom is fatigue. I'm not sleepy, my body just feels heavy and I don't want to do anything but lay in bed and be grumpy!!!

    every pregnancy is different. I wouldn't worry too much at this point

    I look so pregnant because of my bloat!!! I just wanna tell everyone it's the food baby not the actual baby causing the bump!!! 
  • I'm sooo tired. I've been napping with DS every day. And am an emotional rollercoaster..its like PMS x 100!!

  • I just have fatigue (although I'm always tired, so my husband says he can't tell if it's actually more than my normal or not lol), some mild boob soreness, and maybe itchiness? but the itchiness is probably due to the cold, dry weather. I'm a little bloated but honestly that's not uncommon for me anyways so I'm not blaming it on pregnancy. No nausea. Not emotional at all. I really don't feel like I'm pregnant which is nice but also makes me nervous sometimes! I took another wondfo yesterday for reassurance and now the test line is as dark as the control line.

  • i feel so sick with constant nausea but no throwing up. I am sleeping for about 2-3 hrs in the middle of the day and then a full 12 hrs at night. I am also blessed with headaches at night. Cooking dinner nightly is a struggle- i cook for my husband and his grandmother who have little sympathy for my nausea. :( please tell me there is a light at the end of this!

  • @jacksonbears OMG the constipation was so bad for me. Stool softeners didn't do a thing. Try drinking as much water as you can stomach.. Mine finally went away and I seem to be somewhat back to "normal". Good luck!!

  • thanks @secicc12, it gets so uncomfortable! I've been trying to eat more fiber and drinking water 24/7...

  • @jacksonbears the only thing that helps my constipation is taking magnesium. It's in my calcium supplement and if I don't take it, I'll be constipated. But, not everyone reacts to magnesium the way I do so it could be successful or not.

  • I'm so sick of peeing all the time! I go before I go to bed, then usually have to get up an hour later before falling asleep. Without fail, I get up again some time in the middle of the night. It's so annoying!!

  • I've been getting bloody noses. They started last week and happen every morning. Usually they were just little, like 0 bleeding and I only knew when I blew my nose. Today I got a full on gusher at work within an hour of getting in and I almost cried because there is blood on my pants. 
  • I have had every symptom but all at different times.

    4-6w: Bloody noses, hungry constantly, peeing all the damn time, exhausted

    6w-9w (present): Sick as a dog. Unfortunately I had a stomach bug 6 months ago and learned that throwing up would make me feel better, so I've gotten really good at throwing up. As sad as that sounds. So week 6 I kept making myself sick to feel better. After DH kept showing me pictures of what my throat would look like in a few years, I stopped but I still would love to throw up and not have stomach acid sitting ontop of my stomach, ready to come up at any given point. (Sorry if TMI). Oh, and constipation to the max...

    I am so lucky that DH is the cook and he is willing to make all my food plain. We also haven't grocery shopped in 3 weeks so we should probably do that soon...

  • My boobs weren't sore, but my nipples were and now that has gone away.  I've been having these excruciating headaches for the past three days.  They're always on the top of my head except yesterday it was on my left temple.  I've taken Tylenol, which isn't helping and I've checked my blood pressure and that's fine.  I also get nauseous off and on.
