5 Weeks Pregnant With # 1 And I Have This Wierd Symptom

Hi every one, I just found out that im pregnant and  im about 5 weeks along according to my doctor. My little joy is due May 27th 2009 YAY!!!!  But im having this wierd symptom and im just wondering if anyone is experiencing this as well. Ok I havent really had any bad symptoms except being tired and fatigue little to none nausea, not much frequent urination, eating habits have come into affect alot lately  but anyway let me get to the most important part, i have been going to the bathroom(bowel movements) about 3 to 4 times a day or so its crazy because i think that was one of my first early pregnant symptoms because i never went to the bathroom that much before i would go at least 2 times a week if that much (which i know is really bad, but i wasnt that regular and sorry if its tmi), but now its like as if i eat anything i would have these bad stomach cramps(you know the ones where you know you cant hold it and you got to go like right now) and then i would go and of course the stomach cramps are relieved its just kinda scary and i want to know if im the only one with this crazy symptom......... also have anyone experienced extreme bloating(mainly the cause of gas) i have and if so what have you took for it

i'm the opposite of you nita, i used to be alot more regular than i am now, which is weird because you'd think with everything going on in there you'd go more! i'm 8w1d pregnant and these days i have a bowel movement about once every 2-3 days only, cant believe it! and i'm struck with the gas issue as well, which seems to peak at night for me. i dont know what you could take, as far as i know you're discouraged from taking anti-gas pills during pregnancy; just avoid foods that make you gassy. i guess just let it out whenever you can to gain some relief, lol.

Yea gas is a symptom, as far as bowl movements, I have several a day too, but it is hard, like constipation. Only going a little at a time, Its the pits! I figure it will be here for the remainder of the prgnancy. Good luck!
