*TW: loss mentioned
Hi! I could not even believe it when a saw that second line this morning at 11DPO. I feel like I had more symptoms last month than this month when I'm actually pregnant. So tell me about your early pregnancy symptoms. All I've got are sore boobs and some bloat which of course has me scared that this pregnancy will not stick.
A little about me: I'm 35, DH is 34. We have a 4 year old DS. I had a miscarriage prior to having my DS so that loss is never far from my mind which I'm sure is fueling my worries about my lack of symptoms.
I'm looking forward to hanging out with you ladies. FF says my due date is June 25th but my DS was late so I might end up being a July momma.

First things first, congratulations!
Second, many early pregnancy symptoms are similar to PMS symptoms: bloat, cramping, sore boobs, mood swings, etc, even spotting. Everything you're experiencing is completely normal.

Congrats! I’m excited to see another familiar face here. Early pregnancy is such a mind fuck but fx for you. I really had no symptoms until my nausea kicked in at 5w.

Hi and congrats! I had nothing but sore boobs and cramps until 6 weeks when the nausea kicked in. Normal, but a total mindfuck.

Welcome and congratulations!
With this pregnancy, I had NO SYMPTOMS really until 6 weeks. Maybe occasional nausea but it felt more like anxious/nervous stomach because it was usually when I was thinking anxiously about the pregnancy (due to my own precious loss).
So try not to worry too much. Today you are pregnant. Congratulations!

Congratulations and hello!
I'm only a little ahead of you and have just started to have a few symptoms. Sore boobs, crazy tired, and starting to get nauseous when I'm hungry.

Congrats and welcome ! I'm also just a little ahead of you and I have barely any symptoms either. As armpants said to me a couple days ago, miserable with them but terrified without them

Congrats! I’m just 5 days ahead of you and I’m not really having much for symptoms other than minor cramping here and there, bloat from time to time and most recently a bad taste in my mouth. I feel like I had way more symptoms last week when I got my BFP so I know what you mean. It’s a mind F for sure.

Congrats! With my first pregnancy I didn’t get symptoms until ~8 weeks. I’m 4w5d now and only have nipple sensitivity & bloating.

Congrats and welcome!! I'm only a little bit ahead of you...my symptoms are sore boobs, fatigue and some very very very mild cramps (what I usually get a day or so before my period).

Welcome and congrats! My N/V didn't start until like 7 weeks. Before that, I didn't even have sore boobs.

I remember with my daughter in 2011, I didn't have many symptoms at all besides tiredness. However, I am more anxious this time around so i keep waiting for them to appear...even though I am only 5 weeks-still really early.

Congratulations and welcome!
My early symptoms were sore boobs/constantly feeling like I needed to nurse, random nausea, cramping and extra gas. And aversion to sugary foods.
My nausea started to really kick up around 6 weeks.

Welcome!!
My early symptoms were really off and on until about 7wks when I started to get headaches pretty mich everyday which is driving me bananas still at 9wks. I've also had some nausea, acne and sore boobs. Ugh.

Welcome!
Early symptoms I'm experiencing now are exhaustion (like absolutely no energy to do anything). I have some nausea especially on an empty stomach and the occasional sore boobs. With my DD I just remember the nausea and sore boobs.

Congrats! I was in your boat earlier. I am now 9 weeks and am finally feeling sore boobs and increased hunger/need to eat small snacks every couple hours. I was so nervous and second-guess every little thing because I felt like there were no discernable pregnancy symptoms for a while. Fingers crossed that your wait goes fast!
