I'm only 13DPO (maybe only 11 actually) and I've been having a LOT of symptoms already. I think it's probably because it's the second pregnancy, I know what I'm looking for. I'm nauseated whenever I'm hungry, SUPER vivid pregnancy dreams, sore-ish and swollen boobs, excess saliva. You know, all the super pretty parts of pregnancy. Well, the pregnancy dreams are okay I guess.

I'm about 6 weeks and I've been having symptoms for 2 weeks 🙄🙄🙄
I have really bad all day long nausea and food aversion, basically my brain thinks eating is disgusting and I shouldn't do that. I've lost weight because I have to make myself eat which is so hard to do and even when I do finally feel hungry I still can't make myself want to eat anything. I'm having a hard time and since I didn't have any symptoms with my first pregnancy I'm at a loss, I have no idea what to do except drink ginger ale.
Beside all of that I'm tire all the time, constipated, cranky, I have cramps, my boobs are so sore and I'm already having vivid dreams. I'm sort of counting the days until week 13 and hoping it get better by then.

I'm right there with you, not wanting to eat anything. I've also been snapping at my husband too, who is nothing but sweet to me atm...which makes me even more cranky. lol |

nplusone try not to stress about the weight loss, with my first I lost through my 16 week appt and wasn't above my pre-pregnancy weight until after 20 weeks... you make up for it at the end and your doctor will tell you if it's becoming a problem.

I'm 5 weeks today and the bloat is real. SO. REAL. I also noticed my boobs felt like I chucked them over a cliff when I took my bra off last night. nplusone try not to stress about the weight loss, with my first I lost through my 16 week appt and wasn't above my pre-pregnancy weight until after 20 weeks... you make up for it at the end and your doctor will tell you if it's becoming a problem. +1 to this. I didn't start gaining until 25 weeks w/ my two girls. |

I won't be 4 weeks until Friday and the nausea started last night and I woke up with hot flashes this morning. I don't remember getting these symptoms with DD this early on. My boobs are super tender which is what made me test because that was my first symptom with DD.
So I'm not sure if my dates are off or if I'm going to have horrible morning sickness this pregnancy. With DD it was mostly in the evening but I'm dying today.

I've been a little crampy- just enough to take note of and make me incredibly anxious. I have been so nauseous. I have to step outside and take some deep breaths a few times a day.

Same here...and then I think I gained 10 lbs in one week at the end. I only gained 26 lbs total and it wasn't an issue. I couldn't eat anything! |

I'm not far enough along for any real symptoms...just the typical sore breasts, back ache and nausea. I'm counting on the nausea being horrible again this go round. Last time it started at 6 weeks and I threw up the entire 9 months...I delivered at 40+2 and threw up all through labour as well. I couldn’t remember what it felt like to not be sick all the time but as soon as she was out it disappeared. I am not looking forward to that again while having to keep up with DD.

I have had some cramping, which I did last time too, but it's always a little nerve racking. Today I felt a bit nauseous for the first time which sucks but is also exciting!

jewel I've been having cramping too and even though I remember it from last time because of my age and how much I'm having to carry DD around this summer I'm still a little freaked out that maybe I'm over doing it. I keep trying to take it easy but it seems impossible. I keep poking at my boobs to make sure they're still sore. I did that last time too. It usually calms me down a bit except that today they don't seem as sore so now it's just stressing me out.

cp3 I was thinking the same thing about the nausea. I won't be 4 weeks until Tuesday and the nausea is starting already. With DD it didn't start until 6 weeks but then it was all day every day until I deliveref and so intense I couldn't remember what it felt like not to be sick. If it's worse than that this time around I'm in trouble.

I'm having cramping, bloating and fatigue. The bloating makes me look like I'm already at 20 weeks, which is unsettling since I'm not even 5 weeks.

I had the worst cramps in the middle of the night but they went away within an hour. I'm hoping it's just gas...but it freaked me out anyways.

I also look like I'm way further along than I am. I remember feeling bloated last time but I did not look like this. Is there anything we can do other than drink more water? |

I'm feeling overwhelmed and somewhat "what have I done?" at times. It feels bad typing that. I'm exhausted, on meds that make the neausea harder to cope with, I have an aversion to handling food/cooking too (wtf) and eating feels like a chore. It's hard taking care of DS and I'm overwhelmed at the thought of handling 2. I don't have any friends and family is very limited.
I took my first diclectin pill today, so nausea is at bay but it makes me extra drowsy. I think that's a good trade off though because I'm more functional. I don't like taking it but something's gotta give so I'm staying positive.
This is more of a vent, don't mind me.

babybean I totally get why you feel this way. I couldn't imagine doing it all with no family close by. I hope things get better for you during second tri and I'm glad the pills are at least helping a bit.

And uhh I don't think I have any bloating. That's not a bad sign, is it? Or maybe I feel bloated but just don't understand or look it lol. Today my BFF was teasing me about my clothes looking like maternity and she might get suspicious and I said "does this look like a pregnant belly?". There's definitely nothing to see, not even bloat

There's definitely nothing to see, not even bloat Not a bad sign at all! I had no bloating at all with my first and you could just barely see a bump at 20 weeks (although it got exponentially bigger after that). I'm thinking the bloat might have something to do with it being the second go around? |

I don't remember having this gut suddenly appearing with my first pregnancy. |

babybean, vent away. The nausea can be miserable, and I imagine it is way worse when trying to chase around another child. Hang in there.
