One of the symptoms not listed is aversion to foods/drinks that are not good for you & baby at this time. I had an instant aversion to alcohol. Whereas I would enjoy a glass of wine with dinner, I now cannot face any alcohol at all. Obvioulsy my body telling me whats best for me and baby.
I have minimum symptoms apart from that. Mild cramping and some pulling which I assume is ligaments stretching. Many trips to the bathroom but that is it. Sounds like i'm pretty fortunate so far.
Only 5 weeks 1 day though so we'll see if that changes!
my partner & i went out a couple of weeks ago. I had no idea i was preg (period not due at that time)...I had a few too many beverages than usual (not a big drinker anyway). I spent two days in bed vomiting and tired. I was the brunt of every bad hangover joke for two weeks until we realised we are expecting!
hi everyone. I think I am about 5 weeks & 6 days (6 weeks tomorrow). I really don't have many symptoms. I am a bit tired, emtional, crampy and have bigger/sore boobs, but that is it. Bit worried, should I be feeling more. I know this is totally irrational... but I guess I am nor worried... what if I am not really pregnant. You think I could just be happy?!!
Well symptoms to date are bloated, headaches, feel "blah" (you know, kind of nauseas), tired, irritable, big sore b's, and running to the loo every five minutes. Only 6 weeks and 5days into preg, sometimes still pinching myself that it's real.
I am now 9 weeks pregnant and feel very reassured after reading alot of the symptoms you ladies have been having. I have started reading a highly recommended pregnancy book and it does explain alot of symptoms you can expect but I find actually hearing that others are experiencing the same as me at the same time is making me feel a little more comfortable. I have also been getting the sensations that I am about to get my period but just in the last couple of days I have been getting sharp little pangs?? Has anyone else felt these?? They come and go very quickly.
Well at the moment I am in the TWW, but I have the feeling that maybe, just maybe that I could be pg???
I have done a few tests, but all have come back BFN (my AF is not due until Sunday/Monday, and its Thursday now).
I have the feeling of bigger BB's and the bloated tummy at the end of the day, also a horrid metallic taste in my mouth. Oh (this could be TMI) I have thick kind of CM, but not in any way blood stained like it is just before AF arrives?
Woohoo, i can come in here again. Im a bit lucky atm cause im just tired and hungry all the time. Every now and then i get a blah feeling but thats about it. Hope it stays like this.
YAY!!!! I will officially be 12 weeks tomorrow!! Had my first ultrasound last Thursday...little sweetheart was 171bpm and 4.05cm long. Nausea had disappeared but still getting the good ole tired pangs.
I am 6 weeks PG and the only symptons i have had is very light Nausea (no vomiting thank god), being short of breath and light cramping in my left hand side. My OB did an ultrasound when I when to him to have it confirmed to make sure everything was ok and that was at 5 weeks due to my past with cervical cancer. we are having another ultrasound on 1st december.
I am 7 weeks and 2 days pg and haven't had many symptoms at the moment. The normal ones I am having are:
Tired from about 8-9pm
Sore BBs - but only when I am not wearing a bra....so nightime is really bad
Weeing a lot more at night time, but don't really notice it during the day
My nails are so strong and are growing without breaking which is a difference for me as they always break!
Mood Swings
Nausea in the morning, then when I eat I feel better
I can eat a lot more at dinner time
A lot more CM
Dry skin
My face broke out in pimples at the start, now its so lovely!!! And that is without using Proactive every day. Usually if I don't use this everyday I break out!!
The strangest symptom I am having is (sorry TMI) I do No. 2's more times during the day!!! Weird?????
Hi Ladies, With my first I did nothing but throw up from conception to birth... Not a pretty pregnancy but a beautiful girl. I had no symptoms for my second but suffered a miscarriage at 20 weeks. Third nausea a little at first, bled a little then settled in for an excellent hardly eventful pregnancy. This time I have had sore boobs from day dot and feel queezy all the time (no vomitting like the first thanks goodness) and I have a slightly distended uterus that is a little tender. Oh and the one common thing I suffered massive weight gain due to fluid retention was common on all of my previous pregnancies. Yuk..... I tried everything to make sure it didn't happen but its just one of my things I guess. :-) Cheers Tracey
Well apart from having boobs like watermelons, and oh so sore... I thought I was going to have it easy... BUT I am know into my 8th week, and the last few days the nausea, dizziness and tiredness has hit me like a tonne of bricks. just in time for Christmas. :frown:
anyone got any pointers on dealing with the nausea?
Hi, just wondering if someone might be able to help me out.... I am one week overdue for my period, so I did a home pregnancy test but it came up negative.... Looking through the symptoms of pregnancy though I came across a few I have had... Head aches, Extremely Tired, Dizziness, Bright Yellow Urine, Very Bloated, Stitch like pain on my left side, Clear/white fluid stuff... Has anyone ever had a negative response with a home pregnancy test and actually been pregnant?

Hi, a question for those ladies who experience morning sickness ... does it occur every single day or does it come and go? I've had it for about a week now (I'm week 6) but today I've felt ok.
The whole boob thing is weird. I've migrated from an A cup to a B cup in 13 weeks.
My mum is a DD so I'm freaking out that I'll gain a permanent cleavage enhancement.
Nothing wrong with that, but I just won't know what to do with them.
I'm also getting a bit dumb. I washed my hands with toothpaste the other night, and yesterday I turned the hot tap on full and put my hands straight under it. I think being so tired is taking it's toll on my judgement
