Me!! I've noticed my lower back aches in a very dull and annoying way. It's not crazy painful like a pulled muscle or injury, but just enough to let me know that it's there. I'm 9w5d
Anyone else super forgetful? I did not have this problem with my twins until I was at least twenty weeks. I'm exhausted and sleeping a lot so I don't think it's caused by fatigue...

Not necessarily forgetful, but I do have the fuckits HARD. Like I just can't find the interest to focus on anything... but the bump of course. lol I get to work and I'm like omg, I can't do this for 8 hours. My bain won't let me do it!
You know what symptom I'm not having? Moodiness. I find that a little odd, because all the resources say we're just soooo hormonal. I definitely got PMS mood swings but I've been pretty even-keeled for the 5 or so weeks I've been aware of this pregnancy. I'm known for having the stereotypical British stiff upper lip though so there's that.
@DeansGirl14 You know, I haven't been very moody lately until last night when I was devastated my husband couldn't come to an appointment I hadn't even consulted the timing with him about. It was embarrassing because I'm not usually a PMS mood swing person. At least my moodiness is rare so far...I hope.
@brookedeyo My lower back pain was actually my first symptom. It's what made me take a pregnancy test! I haven't been to the dr yet, but with my last pregnancy my Dr. said that it was ligaments stretching a preparing to accommodate the baby- even that early on. My pain has eased up a lot now (7 weeks 2 days by my count). It will probably return in the later stages if it's anything like my first pregnancy. All that to say you aren't alone!
I'm only 7.5 weeks but this is baby #2. I feel like I'm already showing and experiencing symptoms I didn't feel until about 16 weeks with the first, so crazy. Nausea anytime my stomach is too empty, exhausted from chasing DD1 around, & crazy hot at night whenever I try to go to sleep. Anyone else who's already a mama having this happen? I'm wondering if it's just that I'm recognizing it sooner because I've experienced it already.. ugh
Omg what can I do to soothe an upset belly? I'm running to the toilet all the time but it's not to throw up. It only comes up at night. It's like I have reverse symptoms haha. But seriously any idea for comfort every evening?
@dinofreak yepppp. Or I randomly have good days for no reason, which is great.. if I knew why. And then I get all hopeful maybe it's just done! And then no.

Mine is usually at night too. Last night when I laid down I was like what the F man? I have been drinking ginger soothe drink and that helps a little. And being propped up helps too. We have a sleep number adjustable bed so looks like DH may have to get used to sleeping propped up too. Can't wait for the bad heart burn to start too. That was my least favorite part of my last pregnancy and any time I laid flat I just felt like garbage. Good luck mama!
