Tired, I have lucked out and not have have had any morning sickness or any nausea. My boobs are a bit sore which is annoying. I’m going to the mall today to buy some new bras today.
I have had a cold kicking my ass since Friday. So I've got this horrible mix of cough, congestion, sore throat, and pregnancy nausea. Drinking a ton of tea and just lounging on the couch like a miserable lump.
Nausea has kicked up a notch going into week 6. Boobs still hurt and are def bigger, which sucks when you’re already an H cup. I’ve been getting an annoying little headache off and on over the past few days. And I’ve been super weepy over really unimportant things—I had a full meltdown the other night when DoorDash dropped off the wrong order.
Fatigue but not as bad as before. Food aversions on some days and insane hunger other times. A generally feeling of being UNWELL. but I'm lucky bc I've only had awful nausea once.
Yup, big same over here. The most frustrating thing is the headache and brain fog. And fatigue. I just want to feel well enough to get my stuff done every day.

This is too real—a poor Dasher forgot my drink the other day and I about cried 😂
Same exact symptoms in week 6, nausea setting in, bigger (hurting) boobs, and intermittent headache. Wet mouth, peeing more. At 6w4d I’m battling the: “am I nauseous enough?” worries…hoping the anxieties calm after our first ultrasound in a couple days.
I have days when I feel really good and days when I am so exhausted and nauseous, not so much throwing up just a seemingly endless amount of saliva. I find myself wishing I could just throw up to have done with it and feel better for like one minute. My boobs are still so sore, and the low level headaches have been coming and going the last few days. I’ve been a little extra emotional but mostly just faster to anger than anything else, which is really unusual for me. Hoping tomorrow’s ultrasound will ease some of this anxiety I’ve been having.
Still super fatigued with persistent low/mid-level nausea throughout the day. Feeling very lucky I don't have worse morning sickness like my mom had, but could really go for a day of not feeling like I'm getting over a flu.
Also annoying - craving something and then when I go to eat it....zero appetite.
Mild nausea, sore boobs off and on and exhausted. Also crying over nonsense. I was thinking about how much I love my husband and daughter and cried 🙄. Overall just feel a little crappy all the time, hoping it lightens in the 2nd tri so I can get more done
Oh yes Ive been randomly getting terrible tension headaches. One day I had it for the whole day bc I was really trying not to take Tylenol...I ended up giving in and taking one after 16 hours of pain, which took the edge off but not entirely. Went to bed and woke up and STILL had a headache. That time I took a Tylenol immediately and the headache stayed away.
@santababy2022 yes!!! the night sweats are kicking my behind!
I was looking for a way to describe how I feel, and to say I just feel kind of unwell is the most fitting explanation I’ve seen… I’ve also said that I just feel hungover all the time because of the constant queasy feeling in my stomach. Along with breast soreness on and off, more saliva, extreme fatigue (like to the point of struggling getting through the day without taking a nap), and some constipation.
BUT first appointment is this week!!! So I’m hoping everything is well and that these are all good signs.
8 wks and my symptoms are disappearing pretty quickly since Friday. Had an ultrasound on Thursday and everything looked good but now I’m feeling worried.
@babybriggs2022 I'm at 7w5d and my symptoms have lessened and at some points on some days feel like they've gone (until they come back w a vengeance). And on the one hand I'm like "oh thank god" and on the other hand I'm so worried. I keep telling ppl that I'm SO GRATEFUL to be pregnant but I really hate pregnancy so far lol. And I am so sick of feeling sick but also, I fear what it would mean to no longer feel sick.
I second the hungover feeling! Holy I can’t wait till the day I wake up feeling well. Also Over the top emotional/annoyed. Bawled my eyes out all afternoon haha… I’m also exhausted, most things feel like a chore but coming into the last 4 weeks of first trimester so I hope my energy picks up come June 🙏🏻
Ok so I have noticed my feet having been getting cold at night. I usually sleep without socks but these last few night I needed to put socks on. Anyone else?
@janinegb my hands and feet definitely feel like they lose heat so much faster lately. I usually go barefoot at home but I keep feeling like I need slippers now!
For some reason, my first babe is 3, and I know I felt like crap but really can’t remember. i’m 6+2 and ugh, can barely get off the couch this week. Sore boobs, crazy nausea, headache, insomnia - feels like i’m hung over to the 10th degree. I keep making food im craving then, can barely eat to the point I swear i’ll never eat that food again.
I'm 8w 3d and had awful nausea that just seemed to ramp up on the daily from 4w to 8w. The last two weeks especially I've had trouble getting up from the couch and getting anything done because of it. The last two days have been shockingly better, however! Crossing my fingers the morning sickness just hit early and is gone earlier than average it's nice to hear I'm not alone in this, I was buckling down for awful nausea through the whole first tri!
I'm 7wks and a few days. The last couple days my nausea has almost disappeared... has anyone else experienced this? I still have fatigue, sore boobs, shortness of breath and some cramping. It's a little unnerving because I can't help but suspect the worst. I have read that nausea can come and go.
I'm 7 weeks today, my nausea comes and goes now which is kind of nice. I have the preggie drops which help and are surprisingly delicious. I'm exhausted all the time and am finding it really hard to stay focused at work and motivated to workout. I go to bed so early and am still tired all of the time. My boobs can barely be touched sometimes and I know it's early but I feel like my boobs are getting fuller.. Anybody else having crazy dreams??
My bloating has gone down a bit but I seem to get motion sickness. I don't really have an appetite, but I've found goldfish make a good breakfast to go with my vitamins lol. The other day, I swore the saltiness tasted like soap (?) And I asked my husband what that awful smell was...his bodywash. That I picked out and he's been using for 3 months! I am pretty much on one big meal a day because nothing sounds appetizing.
Almost 8 weeks and my symptoms are also rapidly going which is making me nervous. Fatigue but nowhere as bad as a couple weeks ago. Still feel like most all food is blah, but nausea is better than before. Mostly I'm extremely hormonal and cry easily over EVERYTHING.
And omg the hormonal breakouts. I generally have good skin and don't breakout much but this is like I am permanently PMSing and getting giant pimples on my face AND all over my scalp and hairline. It is driving me crazy! It's like being a teenager again! I'm going to finish this pregnancy with a baby, a belly pooch, saggy boobs and cratered skin.
For those who said “unwell”- that really sums it up for me. Since 6w I felt mild nausea in the mornings but cutting out coffee really helped so now I’m on to ginger and lemon tea every morning which I think has helped as well. The bloating was bad weeks 6-8 but has subsided a bit. Now at 9w5d, the strangest thing has happened over the last few days where my nausea has moved from morning to early evening. I’m hoping this just means it’s on its way out! And then the breakouts… those only seem to be getting worse. 🫣
Anyone else dealing with a friable cervix this pregnancy? I've been bleeding and clotting for 2 weeks now. Super frustrating and nerve-wracking. Other than that, no morning sickness at all, slight sore boobs and tired all the time. Oh and the brain fog... that's the worst.
7w5 I had on and off growing pains/cramps and serious fatigue. Also had on and off nausea but was able to not throw up, so thats good. I also have been hungry alot. My stomach rumbles every 3-4 hours!
The hungry/nauseous cycle is exhausting on its own. I used to wake up, have my black coffee, and frequently not eat until 2 pm or so. Now almost immediately upon waking, I have to start trying to strike the balance of juuuuust enough of the “right” food to tamp down the nausea, then eat again within 20-30 minutes of the next wave a couple hours later, or it gets way worse. So high maintenance! Also, I can barely stand my coffee—talk about insult to injury!
Spoke too soon. Felt better last week but today I feel horrible again, so exhausted, nauseous but like in a metallicky/migrainey kinda way if that makes sense?, and everything smells and is so disgusting. My mouth also tastes funny. 8w5d. Man, and here I thought I was lucking out that the symptoms were disappearing so fast!
First time being pregnant, so not sure if this is normal. I cannot sleep for the life of me. I am exhausted, but cannot stay asleep. I am an IVF patient so I am still on progesterone shots. I also suffer terrible allergies. I am so stuffed up, I think I'm breathing out of my mouth while I'm asleep so I wake up SO DRY. I have been drinking 3-4 bottles of water during the night. That certainly doesn't help the already increased frequency of pee trips! hahaha what a trip this already is!
Anyone ever experience restless leg syndrome while pregnant? This is my first and I can count about 8 nights now waking up to what I can only assume to be restless leg. I’ve never had anything like this before. It’s super annoying and uncomfortable, I hope it doesn’t stay and glad it’s not every night by any means. I have my first appointment tomorrow and will obviously bring up to my OB.
@letpaymar I've had restless leg syndrome for years now, so while it's not pregnancy-related for me, I definitely feel your pain! It comes and goes for me, so hopefully it will go for you soon!
I haven't had very many symptoms at all this pregnancy, and the few I've had (fatigue, some boob tenderness) went away last week and haven't come back. Cue the anxiety.
Re: May Symptoms

as soon as I hit 6 weeks the best way I can describe it is it feels like I’m constantly jet lagged…exhausted, brain fog, a bit motion sickness.
anyone else having intense night sweats too?
wishing everyone a healthy week ahead!
