I've been tired, but it's not full fledged first trimester bad yet. My boobs are a little sensitive when I wake up and I almost threw up cleaning one of DS's diapers, which isn't my norm. I feel like it's too early for this stuff! i know horrible nausea is waiting so I'm taking it easy.
I'm praying I have a replication of my pregnancy with DS. Post morning sickness I loved it so much.

i feel like i am already experiencing fatigue too! not sure if it has anything to do with chasing a toddler around this time, but i don't think i'm just imagining it.
i am also hoping this pregnancy is similar to my first - no nausea and no food aversions. all i can remember is being exhausted first tri and wanting all the sugar last time.

I gag when I brush my teeth, which is new. I don't want anything sweet, which is weird for me. I've had some nausea and heartburn that comes and goes. I've had some bloating too. Also, my nips are sensitive and tingle sometimes.

Also, my nips are sensitive and tingle sometimes. i'm still nursing dd and i just put it together that this is probably why i've been sensitive! i guess i'm not too sharp these days.

I've had sore/tingly boobs, cramping, heartburn, food aversions, and serious bloating. I'm kind of glad I'm having all sorts of symptoms, because it is the only thing that calms my nerves from initially having slow rising hcg levels.
I've also become a serial boob squeezer. I'm constantly groping myself to make sure they still hurt!

My biggest symptom I think is exhaustion. I am tired all the time, and it doesn't help that I wake up crazy early even when I am tired. My boobs were really sore at the beginning but thankfully that has gotten better. They are still tender but they aren't as painful as before. I am also feeling a bit queasy if I don't stay on top of getting food in me.

My heartburn has seemed to have gotten better for now. I am never hungry but if I don't eat I feel nauseous. My boobs are still sore and I started to wonder if you can get clogged ducts while pregnant because I got them a lot in the few weeks I nursed M.

Basically none. Which makes me anxious even though I have no reason to worry. So I keep peeing on tests. The biggest thing was all the emotions last week.

I think I'm only 4w1d and my symptoms come and go so it's giving me anxiety, even though I know symptoms or lack there of aren't indicative of much. I hate the waiting game.

Ummm yes....
Nausea will be the death of me and if I could magically transport to second tri and deal with hip pain instead, I'd be happy. I've been drinking a lot of ginger water and just trying to eat every so often. My boob are hurting as well... and nasal congestion which plagued me all last pregnancy too. Luckily I kept a journal when I was pregnant with G and it's interesting to go back and compare when things started. So far pretty similar except I was craving salty snacks at this point last time and so far nothing this time.

My boobs are killingggg me. Usually it's a relief to take my bra off at the end of the day... not anymore. I keep waking up so early in the mornings now because I have to pee, and I love my sleep, so ugh. A little cramping and weird stretching pains, which has been terrifying. MH is all about "enjoying the journey" so I'm trying to do that.

nuggetrn polson It's been pretty neat to see. I've tried to keep the journal up since he was born as well, just adding when he started doing things or just silly things he's done. It's a good reminder and maybe something he'll like in the future. I've read of some people having journals of oddball things their kids have said and just left it on the coffee table. The kids are grown up now but like to pick it up and have a laugh.

Bloated, anxiety, and I'm already feeling round ligament pain(i guess?) when I cough or make sudden moves.

I'm only like 2 seconds pregnant, so not really. I have had cramping on and off for a couple days.

Well today my tailbone hurts and I've done nothing to it. Also per Dr Google it's pregnancy related. That and sore nipples are the only things I can't attribute to something else. I did puke this morning but I think it was just nerves+ short on sleep+ my normal gag reflex .

Wasn't sure if this was pregnancy related, but it's happened the past 4 days, so I'm now assuming it is. Around 2 or 3 in the afternoon, I'll start feeling really blah. Not so much "throw up" nauseous, just not a great stomach feeling plus a terrible taste in my mouth, almost metallic tasting. It has been lasting the rest of the night and nothing really makes it go away - eating, drinking, brushing my teeth 800 times.

I found sucking on jolly ranchers helped but then I got sick of the taste of them too.

Ugh. I am starting to feel more things too. I have the itchiness and right now it is 0523 and I am awake and feeling horrible. This is the second morning I have woken up super early feeling like crap. And I went to bed at midnight last night. I have to be up and out of the house at 0830. I see a nap in my future.

Yes. Quiet time... Lol. I don't think we have too much going on today so I think I will have time for a nap. The real question is whether or not I will actually be able to fall asleep. That is typically the issue.

This pregnancy is very different already from my first pregnancy.
I woke up a few days ago with acne all over my face, wtheck?? lol, I had none of that with my DD.
And TMI, I keep going back and forth from constipation to diarrhea, a repeating cycle. But I'll take that over morning sickness any day. I also had a shooting, sharp pain in my bum several days before my missed period. It has reoccurred off and on since. That is actually the symptom that made me take a pregnancy test. I don't know why, I just have never felt anything like that before...so I took that test. lol random-nonlogic ....(The sharp pain made me worry that this pregnancy could possibly be ectopic. I was very relieved after my first US this past Monday. It showed the gestational sac where it should be, in the uterus.)
My last pregnancy, my boobs killed me and I was beyond exhausted. Neither of those has been an issue this time. I'm tired from chasing a two year old around, but that is nothing new.
