    Question cramps/constipation/fatigue..

    I've started getting period like pains again....they seem to start...then stop...then start again. Has me worrying my little brains out, but it always turns out ok. Anyone else going through this?

    Constipation is getting worse! Is there anything pregnant women can take to help with this problem?

    One more question....is there anything that i can take that can help with my energy levels? I have a toddler and work at home, and it seems all i want to do is sleep!

    Thanks for your help

    Sounds exactly like what i was going through. I drank lots of juice and that seemed to fix my constipation. And the period like pains are normal, i still get them now. As for energy i found my prenatal vitamins gave me energy.

    Same Same but DIfferent

    Although earlier on than both of you (only 5 weeks), I am also getting the period like pains, whats worse is that they are Off and On.... On is great, makes me feel pregnant (as I have no other symptoms). Off, on the other hand, definitely makes me feel anxious. I want to feel our little darling is hanging in there! xox

    Ps: As for the constipation, a friend put me onto Normacol (she was referred by her OB)... I only bought it today so will give it a little guinea pig trial and let you know how it goes! I WANT MORE SYMPTOMS. Teee heeeee xox

    Between week 6 and week 11 they were my worst for morning sickness, i couldnt eat anything without seeing it a short time later. And i was so tired all the time, when i wasnt at work i was in bed sleeping.
