Symptoms!

[cloudbutterfly]

I'm curious to see who gets what symptoms when. I'm sure in a few weeks this stuff is going to be less exciting than it is at the moment, but for now I'm just happy to see any sign that things aren't normal.

So far, I had a HORRIBLE headache from 9 dpo (day of my implantation dip) until 12 dpo, but it's gone now (thank goodness). I also got dizzy while standing up and moving around in the kitchen at 9 dpo, and now I have to be careful to eat small meals all day long or I get lightheaded. Other than that, at 17 dpo my temperature's been up and I've been feeling extra hot at times, I'm hungry more often, tired more quickly, and I can tell my heart is working harder when my heart rate goes up. Oh and I think one of my breasts is inflating and the other isn't. I'm already a little lopsided, but this is getting ridiculous!

I do think I've been in a better mood most of the time too, but I'm not sure if that's the hormones or just been really happy.

What about the rest of you?

Well, I had some dull cramping..my boobs feel tender and my nipples are finally starting to feel tender. I'm a little light headed today. And maybe its in my head but I swear I am super sensitive to smells. I even cleaned out my bathroom the other day of any perfumey items. Other than that, not much..I can't wait to get the full blown symptoms. I want to know that things are progressing! I can't help but worry!!

I could go for a nap at 1pm sharp everyday. The day before yesterday I went home during my lunch to get dinner prepped. I sat on the couch to 'close my eyes a second' and woke up 55 minutes later. And I typically hate mid-day nap!!

Other than that nothing. Boobs are normal, food looks the same, etc.

I'm sure in a few weeks I'll be wishing for no symptoms!

Excatly!!!!

Well I'm a happy camper! My DP and I both swear my boobs have grown 2 cup sizes in a few days. Im usually a large A/small B now I'm a good size C. They hurt. I wonder if that's normal lol. I am not feeling bad yet but I have a few symptoms.

Crazy ass dreams! Oh man.....I dreamt I was trying to save my city from an exploding volcano last night. I was running and people were getting sucked up by the lava flow and the city was burning down. The lava was running down the streets and through peoples homes. I ran through this beautiful park as fast as I could and looked back and it was totally burned and the lava was catching up to me. I lost alot of people and only managed to save a few. The whole city was torched and my dream was black and full of fear. It was one of the more scary dreams I have had in a long time. I was terrified.

I had absolutely vivid dreams when I was pregnant before too (I misscarried). And I am normally a very sensitive person but pregnancy makes it 1000X worse. I feel way too much for the average person. Other than that though I think I'm doing good so far....morning sickness is not unbearable yet.

I feel symptoms as soon as the egg is fertilized practically. No joke But again, I'm hyper sensitive to my body. I have so much activity down there. Gurgling and bubbling and bloating. I am having hot flashes. I'm feeling nauseated pretty consistently. Not bad but just this underlying feeling. This is exactly what I had with both pregnancies, so it's very familiar to me. I didn't ever throw up last two pregnancies, just felt midly naseaus all day and evening. And I have dirrehea. Which is my form of M/S-the throwing up part. I have loose stools the whole pregnancy. No constipation for me. LOL
So yeah, I'm feeling a lot.
Oh and today at my MILS I could not stand the smell of her fabric softner coming from her drying clothes in the dryer. But it wasn't that big of deal. I just could feel an aversion to it.
None of the symptoms are strong except the gurgling and moving down there. But they are there that is a fact!

I have been peeing more, increased hunger, lots of cramping, pulling pains already, get tired more easily, mood swings and "teary", constipated, I had "vibration" early on which was a first for me! And today my hands are tingly! I took another test this morning hoping my line would be darker but it's not. That worries me! :

[Brisen]

The thing I'm noticing the most is the round ligament pain. That's why I decided to go ahead and test, even though I wasn't sure if I was even late yet, since my cycles are a bit irregular. I'm glad I got over my cold before it started -- sneezing would have been awful!

[nina_yyc]

I've been hungry and boobs are getting sore. Also really annoyed with DD nursing. I'm hoping to be super-active and maintain good nutrition through this pregnancy to keep the symptoms to a minimum. Exercise and veggies really helped last time but I kinda gave up partway through.

[*Jade*]

Ugh, I feel like crap!! I have been nauseous for days, I'm good in the mornings, then after that I can't even think about food without my stomach flipping over. Sore boobs too, and I think they are bigger, but DH says he can't tell I have a lot of cramping going on as well, which is scary, but I keep reading it's normal. It just doesn't feel like it could be normal!
And really tired, esp later at night. I can't believe I have symptoms this early, I really thought I'd make 6 weeks before they hit!

Amanda I had this as well, my 3rd test was much lighter than my other two. But as scary as it is, symptoms are a good sign! Plus, I was told there's no way hormones could drop that fast even if the worst had happened. So hang in there, and stop testing! It's very freeing!!

I have the same thing happening over here. Not sure what's up, but I'm feeling a little worried too.

[mwright]

My cramps let up..and I think its normal at the beginning.

When I woke up to pee this morning, I had a LOT in my bladder..and there was a sharp pain at the end..and throughout today, I have continued to get that every time I pee except this last time its gone. But I am still getting little stings down there. Is anyone else feeling this? I'm treating as a UTI but I am not sure. Someone said it could be growing pains in my uterus. Or maybe even the incision from my previous c-section. I don't know!! I'm trying not to worry, but every little twinge has me on edge.

[thelocaldialect]

My first symptom has always been tender breasts, which I can usually notice pretty early on, around 8-9dpo. Aside from that, so far I've just been moodier than usual and more prone to snapping at my husband. I didn't get MS with my son, or with either of my miscarriages, so I hope no MS this time either, especially since I still have to teach until June.

[Mama_2_Boy]

I had symptoms right away, within days of conception. It was like that with my first. Breast tenderness and nausea. The nausea pretty much disappeared the day of implantation (weird) and was replaced with heartburn. Now I have cramping and I didn't have that with my first. Some days the cramps are all day long. I'm pretty physically active and yesterday me and DH went for a long mountain bike ride and that actually seemed to make the cramps worse. No bleeding though so that's a relief! I am hoping to get in to see the midwife next week.

Othat than that, just really thrilled to be here!::::

Oh - the other thing that I wanted to add is the crying...I'm bawling at everything! Not that I feel sad..I don't at all, but anything remotley sad triggers crying...commercials, remembering something sad.

[IntuitiveJamie]

Wondering what everyones CM is like and positioning of uterus...if you are checking that sort of thing.

Mine is still low, but softer like lips and slightley open. My mucous pretty much dried up for a a day or so and now is just a sticky, mostly clearish mucous.

Still waiting on BFP though, with absolutely no signs of Flo. Most symptoms have calmed down. Still dealing with slight nausea.

Symptoms & cramping

I am just very tired.. A lot more tired than normal. I took a four hour nap the other day just days after conception. I am very early along too. I got my bfp 8 dpo so i will feel better once I hit the 12 week mark

I have had cramping too. ALL DAY. No bleeding, but I am not late for my period until Wednesday because I have super long cycles. Last month it was 32 days. I will prob. feel better when I miss my period as well.

Thats the only reason I tested early is because I couldn't WAIT until my missed period. That would take forever.

The cramping, one boob that is bigger and more sore, being tired..lets see what else. Im not sick or anything, but I didn't get sick with my last pregnancy.

Okay question for ya???? IS ANYONE ELSE SHOWING ALREADY THAT IS ALREADY HAD ANOTHER CHILD??? I know the first time you are pregnant you don't show for awhile, but man at 12dpo I am already showing a little.

CRAZY!!! haha

Thats about it for now but it is still early so well see.


Married to wonderful husband ( i hate saying dh it seems so corny). jc born 1/31/06 and due 12/05/2009

[mwright]

I'm not showing yet but I have "let loose", you could say. lol My little left over pooch from #1 sure wants to be a pooch. lol

My boobs are getting more tender and I have an after taste in my mouth, like a metalic taste. And today after lunch, I felt a little queasy so I can tell that the progesterone is kicking it up a notch every few days.

Its crazy cuz I would think that I would feel tired but I am the complete opposite. I feel like I am nesting big time! I have all this energy. So today I am going to wash/detail my car. It is filthy and right now its really bothering me.

My bladder twinges are gone so I am feeling better about that, I think I knocked it out with vinegar, garlic and cranberry juice. lol

OMG! And a few days ago I was extremely emotional! And I had a temper! Anything DH said that I didn't like and I was mean!!! It was bad but better now. Poor guy.

[DJ's_Girl]

So today I had my first really pregnant feeling day. I've been trying to clean up my house and get everything in order. I can only work for a little time and then start feeling sick so I have to sit down. It's exciting and blah at the same time. I have to keep snacking to feel better. But hey at least something helps, huh?

[SunShineSally]
