Symptoms

I'm 5 1/2 wks along and have a few symptoms (sore boobs/nipples, mild abdominal cramping, tired at times).  Just curious what symptoms everyone else has and when they started.  I'm just wondering if the morning sickness is gonna hit me next week.

thanks

I'm about 4 weeks along and I've had tender bb's, hot flashes, some nausea, and loss of appetite.  I'm 39 and this is my 2nd pregnancy - the first ended in a missed m/c 2 years ago at about 6 wks, so I'm anxious to get past that mark.

I'm 6 weeks along and have very sore and growing bb's (cute terminology), and get cramps several times a day. I've read it could be due to dehydration. I drink water all day, but when I get busy I forget and as soon as I gulp some more down, the cramps go away. I don't have morning sickness yet, but I have debilitating motion sickness, so I feel like I'm destined to get m/s any day now. This is my first and I'm so excited. I really hope everything goes well for you and your pregnancy.

Wow Riley that is so strange! I am exactly the same! I had a missed m/c last April 2008. My first 7 week scan went fine- heartbeat was great. Then about 9 weeks I stopped having morning sickness and felt there was something not right. I went on to have my 12 wk scan and the dr. told us it had stopped growing just after the 7wk stage. We were so shocked and distraught. I know exactly how you feel. I do. I worry alot that it might happen again, and that I won't even know. I am depending on the scans to keep me informed. It's just awful isn't it? I know what you mean by not getting too excited. I've read alot though it's so common, and that most women go onto have a perfectly healthy pregnancy after!

Well hopefully this time round, we'll both have a run of good luck, and we'll be able to share baby pics :-)

Keep me informed as to how you go, and so will I. My first scan is Sept 30 (which happens to be my wedding anniversay so I hope it's a good sign!!)

Take care and mind yourself and your bun!!

Hi Cat - last weekend my hubby and i were running errands and then all of a sudden i started to get lightheaded.  It was really weird and then when we got in the car I just had to get home and lay down - i was exhausted.  that hasnt happened since, but it was strange.  I have started to notice the discharge and at first I thought that was odd but have read that its normal so that made me feel better.  I'm 39 and this will be my 2nd preg.  1st one ended in mc last Oct.  I'm really nervous about this preg - we just need to get past 7 weeks.  That is our 1st hurdle.  (thats about when I mc last yr).  My 1st appt is Mon.  I'm switching dr's.  Bad expeience with dr last yr.  What makes me even more nervous is that last yr we had a missed mc - which there was no indication that i had miscarried - we found out on our 2nd US.  I still had preg symptoms.  So its hard to get too excited on this one.  I'll feel more at ease when we get past the next few US.

Thanks for responding.  Best of luck to you as well.

Hi Riley, I'm just 5 wks along and have similar symptoms- sore nips and heavy sore bb- especially when I'm in bed and turn over! I get period like cramps every few hours...come and go in a couple of mins. Also, if I stand up too quickly, I get light headed.. Just waiting for the morning (more like all day) sickness to hit! I had it last time I was pregnant when I attended my 7wks scan so I'm expecting it next week! Uurrggh! Another symptom (TMI ALERT) is heavier than usual discharge- white and watery (Sorry!!) But you did ask ha ha!!

Best of luck to you and hope we both have a healthy and happy pregnancy!
BTW, is this your first? It will be my first..last one ended in m/c (bad word).
