Well just when I thought my Symptoms were going away, their BACK and with a vengeance! I'm not complaining! The first thing I do in the morning is feel my boobs to make sure their still sore! LOL I know symptoms can come and go but I just get so scared when their not here. But so far they've been pretty damn sore all day. My nipples especially! And now I'm having a hard time eating fruit or anything with fruit juices, which ***** because I LOVE all that stuff! Bread has been the easiest thing for me to eat and not feel sick but I'm trying to eat healthy at the same time. Last week and prior all I did was eat, eat and eat! Now this week I have been feeling so sick to my stomach that I can barely eat! The thought of food makes me sick and than when I do eat, I feel like I want to throw up! I haven't yet, but I've felt so sick...I burp up my food all night long...grouce! Been going to the bathroom a lot and I can't seem to keep my eyes open no matter how much sleep I get! Been soo thirsty too...

They schedule my first U/S at 5 weeks..but only because I just had a M/C in April and than got Pregnant right after and I also had one in November 07. Tomorrow I get the last of my HCG taken (for now) and hopefully I will get both those numbers tomorrow. A little nervous but feeling positive! Than I think they are going to schedule another U/S when I am 7 weeks or so-can't wait for that!

Well I hope everyone is feeling well! Take Care!!

It seems like I have that (because I look at the toilet paper everytime I wipe for blood!) but I'm not sure if it's that or just the pee??

[Hope2OneDay]

OK...this is tmi, but I have to ask. Is it just me, or does anyone else periodically have cm  in a pale yellow shade? I always see everyone talk about white, cloudy, thick cm while pregnant, which I remember LATER in pregnancy, but I can't remember if I had this yellowish kind last time early on. It's not every single time, but every other day or so.
I know it's not from an infection or it would most likely be seen constantly.

Anyone?

[Asking4aMiracle]

oh yay so my sore throat turned into a sore throat and head cold this morning, im all congested and my throat kinda hurts, my voice sounds funny! this *****!! i havent been sick in MONTHS!!! not even a little bit and my husband has been throwing up all night sick twice since Christmas but my mighty prenatals were taking care of me! well here i am! Tylonel sore throat non drowsy and sleep thats me!! i pray i get better quickly, my baby needs a healthy mommy!!!

[agomez333]

So I was miserable yesterday and didn't get out of bed most of the day. Everytime I moved I thought I was going vomit everywhere and pass out. My boobs are so sore and last night after work I took a warm bath and my boobs were leaking like a white milky substance. I thought it was really wierd since I am only 6 weeks and haven't had kids for 10 years. I have 3 kids already, but they are 14, 11, and 10. So we are starting over again. I am so bloated, extremly tired and crazy thirsty but that jut makes me hve to pee constantly. My boobs have already gotten so big I have to go buy some new bras cause mine don't fit anymore. Is anyone else having so many symptoms so early? I thought your boobs weren't really supposed to grow like that till the 6th month. I cant imagine how much they are going to continue to grow... Thankfully I haven't had food cravings yet seeing as how bloated I am I'm not able to eat too much.
So I haven't thrown up yet but sometimes I feel so green I think I wold feel better if I could just throw up already. I have been taking tums alot already for indigestion. I try to eat bland food as anything too greasy or spicy will set me off. I have also been belching alot more lately... These are all different symptoms han my last three pregnancies... What about everyone else... Anything similar? I wish my symptoms were more subdued than some of you but again I guess it is a security blanket as you are saying. I had a m/c in July last year at 14 weeks and had several complications and surgeries following... So we are keeping our fingers crossed this time.
My first Dr. appt is goingto e July 18th and I wil be like 11 weeks so I might be calling them to get in earlier.. I can't wait that long...
Best blessings to everyone!!!!

Well I sneaked into the Jan 09 babies forum and apparently some of the girls at around 6-8 weeks have started getting nausea and all of the "common" preg symptoms, so there's hope for us still!  
My friend (who had a baby a year ago) said the same thing, that she felt fine and normal (mild af cramps and no sore bbs!) until at around 8 wks and then it all started going downhill then the day she turned 12 wks it all stopped!  She also said that she didn't get any food aversions except for sushi that she absolutely loved before prego.
I think we're in a normal stage, just take a deep breath (including me) and just think happy thoughts. I will keep you all up to date on my u/s tomorrow.  My Dr. is new to the clinic so she's building new patients so I guess that's why I got such an early appointment.

[Hope2OneDay]

mumita...except for some mild tingling occasionally, I haven't had sore boobs at ALL yet! LOL
I think it hit around 7 weeks last pregnancy, so we'll see.

Anyway, I wouldn't stress over it! :-)

[KM604]

Thank you! My OBGYN office said that it is standard practice for them to see me first at 10 weeks.  They also said that since m/c's are most likely to happen within the first 10 weeks, I guess they are just avoiding all the paperwork and standard of meeting all the doctors for someone who isn't as far along.  I understand, but at the same time I just want to make sure everything is ok! I know I'm not far enough along to see anything, but if I can at least see my levels rise that will do for now!  I hope this cramping simmers down within the next week, otherwise I might request to see the doctor ealier.  Hubby is already "want to go to the ER?" LOL...He just wants to make sure everything is ok also.  Thanks again and hopefully this lasts 8 more months!!

[bny807]

KM604: Congrats on your BFP! : )     i had the exact same thing! extremely bloated (had to wear and still do, "comfy" clothes!)    and i also was cramping a lot last week, esp with movement, and when i had to urinate... now its everyonce in a while when i urinate or move, but not as frequent (i'm 5w3d)  a lot of girls on here said the same thing! : )    GOOD LUCK i hope your numbers look great and MAN can you request to get in sooner than 10 weeks! i would sooooo not be that patient!
   mumita:: its totally normal from what i've read!  also my bb's werent' sore yesterday mroning either, and then as the day progressed they became more and more sore.. and super sore today.. so i think it just has to do with how your hormones fluctuate, but hear its totally normal!!! sooo you getting your ultrasound tomorrow right?? yeaaaa so excited for you!!!!    We are out of town for the next week, but next monday will be ours, and i'm sooo nervous!!! GOOD LUCK and keep me updated ladies!

[KM604]

Hey everyone.  Well I can't officially say that I'm preggo, though the 2 HPT's say I am!  I got blood drawn today and on Thursday the doctor's office will call with the hcg results.  I am nervous though because I then have to wait until I am 10 weeks for my first office visit!  I m/c'd in December and have major problems with my cycle since.  My symptoms are moderate cramping on and off through the day (VERY similar to AF, keep going to the bathroom thinking she came!), sore nips on and off, back ache, some nauseau and headaches.  I am mostly concerned about the cramping.  All last week before I got the positive result, I would get crampy at night but that's it.  So this past weekend, AF was supposed to arrive and obviously didn't :) but I was getting the usual cramping before and it hasn't stopped.  It seems to happen more when I start moving around.  Also, I am soooo bloated, I am sitting her at work with my pants un buttoned!! Well I will officially know on Thursday - wish me luck!

[Asking4aMiracle]

*hugs* mumita!!! i know i know me too!! they said this morning that it is just too soon, they should start hurting in a week or so!! your dr will help ease your mind today!! everything is fine!! DONT stress out, that can only harm you, believing everything is ok will help you!! take it easy!

[Mumita]

My boobs aren't as sore anymore! :( my Dr's Appt is tomorrow, I hope everything is ok, I'm loosing my mind, my boobs aren't sore, I'M A MESS!!! No symptoms!

[denise_m09]

Hi Ladies,

Well, I am 5 week 6da pregnant. My due date is Feb.4th.  But i'm a little nervous because I am not having the ususally pregnancy symptoms like i've had with my other children.  Its scaring me.  I don't want to worry, but I am.  I did post what I was going through on this forum.  My dr. appt isn't until next week. I'm going out of my mind with worry.  I know its crazy, but I am.  

[Momofthreecrazykids]

I'm 3 weeks and 4 days.  I've had nausea, fatigue, frequent urination, bloating, cramps, hotflashes, skin breaking out on my back, shoulders, chest and face (NEVER break out only when I'm pregnant) and backache.  This is my 3rd pregnancy.  I have a 3 year old son and twin 20 month old girls.  So, might be the whole twin thing again.  I'll be sure to let you all know.

[giggleszbaybee]

im 6 weeks && 2 days.. morning sickness *****; its not everyday. more like every 2-3 days. && when i do get it im in the bathroom for a long long time. always hungry.. i eat like a little cow. stomache is pudgy && im only at the beginning.. always sleepy. && my boobs are sooooo sore.. but shh dont tell nobody. [lol]

undescribable feelings control my every move.
im excited yet extremely scared. after all i am verry young.. but im having a baby, its a blessing
7 1/2 MORE MONTHS TO GO

[Hope2OneDay]

Asking:
Girl, I am with you on the hormonal roller coaster. To make matters WORSE, my MIL is visiting!!! That's enough to drive me crazy when I'm NOT pregnant, so you can imagine how bad it is now that I AM! She is a nonstop talker...I mean, the woman has to narrate everything she's doing, has done or is planning on doing. EVERYTHING! She can't just say she's going to the store. She has to say she's going to the store and tell us why, when, and everything that's on her list.

She can't just say "Can you tell me how to work the TV remote?"
She has to say, I can't figure out how the TV remote works. I tried to push this button or that button, and it still won't work."

She can't just tell my dh to get her a Sunday paper when we go out later. She has to tell him 4 times in different conversations, then when I walk into the room she has to say "I told Tom to get me a newspaper when you guys go out"
She has to repeat EVERYTHING a million f'ing times! It's driving me nuts!

On top of all this, she can't stand to just chill out and hang out at the house for one day. She has to go somewhere EVERY day! Even if I just drop her off at a strip mall and pick her up a few hours later...which means I have to pack Levi and his stuff up in the car just for a ride down the road. Never mind that it's 100 f'ing degrees outside or that gas is $4 a f'ing gallon! UGGGHHHH!!!!!

OK...sorry for the foul language. But I'm SOOOO frustrated. And days 17 through 56 are the most critical days in a baby's development! Why did she have to visit us now? What's worse is that the baby's nervous system starts developing during days 17 through 32 (or something like that), so my poor baby will probably end up moody and on edge due to absorbing all my stress!


Alright. I'm done now. I'll save my excessive road rage for another rant. :-)

As for symptoms...I'd say I'm pretty damn moody.

[Asking4aMiracle]

ok im back, i need to vent, i dont know why, well i know why, a wonderful thing called  ~hormones~, but i feel like screaming at someone! im just in a p*ssed off mood!! so my day started happy, i was fine, normal, then when i got to work i almost started crying when someone i work with came in and asked how i was doing today, but caught myself, but since then i have just been ANGRY!!! im just MAD.....ok so im fine with all the other symptoms, but im not so sure i like this one! i dont want to be mad at anyone, i mean geez, i am BLESSED, im going to have a baby!!!! i have no reason to be mad!! *sigh* ok i just needed to vent, does anyone else have days or had a day like this before? i hope its not like this the whole 8 months to go!!

[Mumita]

I want to have the obvious pregnancy symptoms.  OMG!  i've been soo hungry today its crazy, I could eat and eat and eat and not get full!  I am starting to look fat which makes me not want to eat so much.  My husband yesterday was like "oh look, you are getting a little baby bump" and I was like "uh, no, I'm just bloated and getting fat!"
I thought I was going to throw up this morning (I think I might have convinced myself of throwing up) I couldn't eat the granola bar that i started and it started making me feel ill. So I went to the bathroom and thought "This is it, my first time throwing up" but then I burped and the feeling went away.  i'm dizzy  a lot but that's as far as it goes.  And I totally agree with you guys, if it weren't for the sore boobs, i would think that I'm not preggo.  My first u/s is this wednesday!!!!! I can't wait!

[Asking4aMiracle]

WHEW, that makes me feel better!!! i know im peeing a LOT too!! seems like i just sit down and im like **** have to go again!! =) guess that can be a security blanket symptom! i check everytime i pee too, nothing *fingers crossed for us ALL*  i emailed him this morning since the phones were busy ALL morning, he said they should have informed me but they didnt run blood yesterday. so tell me what was the point of getting up early and running over there real quick? i dont live close!! whatever, so that has put me in a crappy mood and i cant seem to get out of it! i try to just think happy thoughts like NEW BABY!! but im still grumpy!
    
i dont know my first u/s yet, he wants to monitor me a little longer, i guess they like our numbers to be in a certain range first, whatever!!

[bny807]

hello!    yea i woke up this morning and my bbs weren't as sore either!! i know i know i've been told by so many people that its TOTALLY normal for it to flucatate, but like i said having that symptom is like a security blanket!!! I had cramping where i was sure i'd see red as well last week..  i checked everytime i'd pee (which was a lot!) and never did!!! so fingers crossed for everyone!!! let us know what the dr says when they finally call back!!!
  when is everyones 1st ultrasound??

[Asking4aMiracle]

i lost 3 lbs since i found out too! weird but im getting nervous! my bbs arent  nearly as sore as they were, my nips are still a little and as for the cramps, i woke up early this morning with severe cramps, i was petrified that i was going to wake up to red! but nothing there not even spotting! Sometimes i wonder if God likes messing with us just to show us he is in control! i just cant wait to talk to the office today and ask why the h*ll didnt they call me yesterday!!!!!!! i would like to know that i am still prego here! sheesh!!

well talk to you all later!!

[Hope2OneDay]

I think I keep telling myself that the bloating is just from eating too much salt and from the extreme heat, too! I've gained a pound. Actually, my weight has been fluctuating each day. I'll lose 1/2 a pound, then gain 1/2 a pound. A few days I actually weighed LESS than when I started out! Weird...but the constant feeling of being bloated is always there. I've just tried to lay off the salt, drink extra water, etc...
