@lund I wish I could tell you the anxiety goes away but for me it didn't. Once that baby is born there is a whole different kind of anxiety. But you are certainly not alone.
@ktw1518 - i was just about to post about this. I feel like so not there either. I ran a stop sign and drove the wrong way down a street today. Luckily im driving in light areas but wow i gotta be careful!
In addition, the exhaustion has set in. Im normally a tired person but this is completely different! Luckily its not bad until the afternoon. Ive been wanting to go to bed at 5pm for the last two nights.

@MrsFox1315 I have had some stomach pain and bowel cramps. I'm basically attributing both to constipation and gas... as long as they aren't severe, my understanding is that's normal.

@MrsFox1315 and @hedgepig FWIW one of the things that made me want to retest when I got my BFP was the gas/pain constipation. It didn't set in the early with my first though.
I had my set second set of bloodwork for my betas this morning, and I just felt awful afterward. I came straight home and drank Gatorade and rested. I've been doing everything to feel normal but I just feel exhausted and it of it.
Slight waves of nausea here and there. Yesterday the fatigue and breast tenderness were extreme. I kept getting sharp, stabbing pains in my nipples. It's not as bad today. I have noticed my sense of smell is a little increased. Today my daughter was eating coconut Chobani, and it smelled like really strong cheese to me.

I'm just having cramps and really tired the last few days. Last week I had super sharp cramps that made me think it was ectopic but betas showed it is doubling nicely. I can't believe everyone's symptoms already! For me, it was at 6 weeks exactly that the nausea fell on me like a ton of bricks...so hopefully things don't hit the fan on Sunday!
4 weeks 6 days here. Maybe some fatigue and a few mood swings that came and went . I'm DREADING the nausea. Last time it was horrible and made me gain so much weight (all I could eat was bread and pasta). That came around 5 weeks, so im anticipating the same. Doc already prescribed diclegis this time, so I'm ready.
I am getting insomnia earlier than before . Anyone else deal with this during their pregnancy(s)?
@sweetpea236 I'm usually a good sleeper and have been waking up more frequently and not about to get right back down. The insomnia is real the last few days
Insomnia has always been the very first symptom for me, and it's been brutal this time around. Doesn't matter how exhausted I am, I toss and turn for hours every night. It's awful!
@sweetpea236 - i had horrible insomnia right before my BFP (fall asleep, wake up an hr later, up for 3 or so hours, sleep for another 2-3, then wake up way earlier than I needed to). Now im sleeping through the night but waking up super early (5:30/6:00) and cant fall back asleep. It so sux and doesnt help with the exhaustion symptom either! I hope this doesnt last long for all of us!

5w2d today and woke up feeling like I was engorged (I wasn't) then smashed in the boobs with a baseball bat. Trying to nurse #1 is nearly putting my in tears. Can this please please pass quickly!

I've had aweful boob pain, headaches that come and go, consistant but mild cramping (so nervous about the cramping but no spoting), and feeling nauseous on and off. Thankfully no puking yet.

I put this elsewhere but extreme fatigue. Boobs are somehow becoming even more sore these last few days and now I'm peeing 3x a night. Lovely. @looeeze I definitely also have the crazy smell issue. We were at a concert on Friday and I could smell other people's shampoo etc. made me so sick. Also, @SaraJoy00 call my curious but why was your hair falling out pre-pregnancy?!
Haha, not exactly sure. My hair would always just fall out
I've been holding off on joining a month board out of fear the pregnancy won't hold, but I need somewhere to bitch about my symptoms.
I just went home sick because I needed a 3 hour nap, and felt like I was hung over (headaches, nausea, bloated). It feels like this is more intense more early than last time I was successfully pregnant.
I've ALWAYS been one to be constipated so typically I'm bloated like 3/4 of the month. Well few days ago I was thinking well thanks to my probiotics I'm not currently dealing with constipation so I won't feel bloated like everyone else.. well what do ya know?? You CAN still be bloated without being constipated!! That is not a baby you see.

And have to pee every 10 minutes and can't stop eating...
Also, I hate spotting.
