I've got a runny nose. I tend to stay pretty stuffed up during the winter anyway, but now I'm needing to grab a tissue more often. Not thinking its a cold because I'm not feeling any other cold-like symptoms.
@acciocoffee - may I ask how big your bed is? I already feel like our queen is cramped with two humans and two cats, but damnit if I don't want one of those body pillows! I'm waking up so often during the night trying to get comfortable and nothing is working.
@stithof It's a queen bed, but it's actually not too bad so far. It always looks like it takes up half the bed, but once I'm situated it's not a big deal. I don't know if I could fit one of those giant U pillows though. DH would probably have to sleep on the couch. lol
Is anyone else insanely thirsty? It’s like I can’t drink enough water. I don’t remember this last pregnancy... but then I don’t remember what I did 3 days ago.
@Lisa3379 I've been drinking like 4 or 5 32-oz bottles of water a day. It's ridiculous. Can't tell if I'm peeing every 15 minutes from pregnancy or from just the water (probably just the water). And I still feel thirsty when I go to bed. Luckily I mostly drink at work, and not so much in the evenings, so I haven't been getting up a ton in the middle of the night.
Today I also kind of started with the blah feeling in my stomach, not really nausea, but meh.
And last week I was crampy, and then it stopped, then today I keep getting these pinchy feelings and tingly and stretchy and a little crampy again. I guess/hope that's the stretching going on in there. 5w1d
Also have that blah feeling... 99.99% of the time I finish a meal completely before my husband. Today for lunch I could barely finish two chicken strips and a scoop of mashed potatoes. VERY unlike me!!
I cried last night because someone took my parking spot so I had to walk farther than normal and I was so exhausted. 5 minutes later I was doubled over laughing about it. Hello screwed up hormones! Its a cruel joke to call this stuff MS because IT LASTS ALL DAY. I’m exhausted all the time..and it doesnt help that I started my new job 2 days before I found out I’m PG! I’m miserable but loving every single second of it as we’ve been waiting so long... But I don’t love the fact that my baby does NOT like tacos. (Cue another round of ugly crying)
I was very bloated last week and had some dizziness and cramping. This week I've been so gassy and and been tired in the afternoons and some slight nausea here and there. The farts are seriously so bad...my poor husband.
I don’t know, but I have a lot less tolerance for the fact that my office is unevenly heated. My desk has felt like antartica this last week (complete with gloves); while some of the conference room have been quite warm. I’ve seriously considered going back to a conference room and working from there...
@WagsFTW and @hannaht8516 the gas is out of control and so embarrassing! Luckily I work from home so I can let them rip but when DH is home he is always laughing at me! I also feel like a I have to number 2 ALL the time but I can't! I'm 5 weeks today.

You ladies make me laugh!! it! Still crazy bloated. I can't freakin suck my stomach in. DH was even like you are sucking it in? Lol yup not moving. Thankfully I have a pair of jeans that still fit but I am seriously considering going out and getting a pair of maternity jeans so I don't have to live in leggings. TMI my lady area /crotch gets so warm in leggings that I can't wear them all day and that ticks me off I try and only wear them if we are going to a movie or going out to eat. Any longer than that and I get super self conscious.
@Kate437 just hit 6weeks today (per my guessed ovulation - dating ultrasound on Wed!) and this bloat is insane! Where did you get yours? Any suggestions for a fluffy lady pre pregnancy?
Can I just say that I bought one of those giant u- shaped pillows and it's the best purchase I could have made? My horribly bloated belly and swollen boobs couldn't take my usual sleeping position (on my stomach) anymore. The body pillow helps so much, and it doesn't take up too much room. I cling to it like a sloth on a tree branch. I'm also having round ligament pain, I think... feels just so sore around there.
@acciocoffee I don't think i will relax until i'm crowning, lol.
If you’re relaxed when you’re crowning I’m going to be so fucking impressed. I think you’d get to skip like 30 mom levels.
Also I feel like garbage already and I’m wicked irritated about it. Both my girls gave me 3 normal-feeling weeks before I started feeling sick. Grumble.
I'm so frustrated with this nausea that comes and goes. I was so sick on Saturday, then yesterday I was fine all day besides maybe 2 light waves of nausea. With DD I had constant nausea, but I don't remember when it started. My first appointment is on Friday and it can't get here soon enough.
@acciocoffee I feel ya. I had lots of symptoms last week and then nothing all weekend. I have 2 weeks till my appt and I just want it to be here already.

@kosmo86 It looks like we might be at about the same stage too. I think I'm about 5 weeks. So maybe it's normal? I'm just praying that eventually the nausea will stick around. It would be so much easier to enjoy this pregnancy if I wasn't constantly assuming I was about to miscarry.
@acciocoffee - It comes and goes for me as well. Saturday was pretty bad and I basically had no appetite. Yesterday (and so far today) I was totally fine.
Re: Symptoms week of 2/5
That looks most appealing to me!
Also today just started to get not really nausea but just an overall blah feeling in my stomach like nothing really appeals.
And last week I was crampy, and then it stopped, then today I keep getting these pinchy feelings and tingly and stretchy and a little crampy again. I guess/hope that's the stretching going on in there. 5w1d
Also I thought I wanted a banana. I, in fact, did not want that banana. Bananas are now gross.
