So far...sore breasts, occasional cramping, slight nausea.  I rarely cry and the other morning I had a 10 minute sob/laughing fest over anything and everything while sitting in bed.  Yesterday I felt really disgusted when driving in the car with the window down and standing in a parking lot....the smell of cars and exhaust seemed really toxic and out of control (I was also thinking about how gross it was that I'd been desensitized to that). I feel sleepy a lot but also seem to have trouble sleeping.  And I've gotten up to pee once or twice every night when I never had to do that before.  I think that's it.  Sounds like a lot but nothing has seemed that extreme.

Heartburn, gas and nausea are showing up. And fatigue, though I don't know if that is pregnancy or life in general right now. Still waking mid night but I think I am going to start having a snack at that time and see if it helps with the morning queasiness.

I am noticing my sniffer is more sensitive and eating feels more urgent, but not much else going on yet. I am exactly 4 weeks today (from my LNMP) but I think I am actually 4 weeks pus 2 days because I O'd on day 12.

I do feel pulling and tightening around my womb area, especially when I exercise and yesterday when I sat in the sun for a few minutes. Major construction underway, I hope!

Man, I've definitely felt a difference when running, I feel so winded and SLOW! My brother was making fun of me, saying that I was being weighed down by 9 oz of zygote. Shut up and bring me cake, brother.

I'm also feeling really really tired, and yet sometimes I can't fall asleep. Or I wake up 2 hours before I have to and then can't go back to sleep. It sucks.

Yes! This is me too! So frustrating. I've been really dragging the last couple days, yet wide awake by 4:45am.

[pokeyAC]

Me too!  I'm so tired by the end of the work day, but I'm not sleeping well either.  Can't wait for the weekend when I can sleep in.  I feel like I should be exercising, but I just don't know if I can muster it up to go to the gym after work.

Is it too early for round ligament discomfort? Because I think I'm feeling it already.

Also, I'm feeling clingy (poor DH) and I get weepy easily. The joy.

I'm with you on the feeling clingy! I'm feeling emotional since yesterday, I just want to cuddle my dd (nearly slept in her bed with her last night!), also still very tired and not motivated to do the house cleaning, but on the other hand I feel like a major clean up sort of like nesting to get the house ready haha bit early I know.

Just hit 6 weeks on Friday, and helloooo nausea. Ugh.

[emilyfaith]

I'm only four weeks pregnant (just tested today). I have been feeling pretty good although I have slept through my alarm every morning for the last week. My husband and I both wake up when our ds comes in the morning.Then we rush out the door in 15 minutes. Its crazy. I have been trying to go to bed early but its like I was hit by a truck. I woke up one night last week feeling so sick and I vomited Im hoping its not a sign of MS to come. Anyone else had middle of the night nausea before?

[emilyfaith]

HA HA HA. That's funny

Sorry, the HA HA HA was in response to this post. Don't mean to offend anyone who isn't feeling well.

I am praying that the same is true for me (or maybe it could even go away sooner!).

What do you ladies think? :D

Oooh I hope, hope, hope this is true!! I started getting nausea at 4w1day and am now sick around the clock. It's terrible. It's only been a week and the thought of making it through another 6 or 7 weeks of this literally brings me to tears. With DS, I got nauseous a few times while cooking, but nothing too bad that I remember (and I would remember if it were anything like what I'm feeling now!) I also am so tired that it's hard to function---even though I'm getting 9 hours of sleep a night. I'm hoping that since my symptoms started so early, they'll also end early. In fact, I'm praying that's the case!

Gitanamama and other Mamas, I just want to give you some hope! I'm now 9 weeks and feeling good. Eating well and haven't been nauseas for about 3 days. Although I did puke last night but it came so quickly and left so quickly that it didn't bother me. Might have been something I ate. And I had a bad headache. Could have been that. But as far as the morning sickness goes, I think it's ended. I started feeling sick at 4 weeks too, so the last 5 weeks have been hard, but I'm finally feeling somewhat normal. As long as I eat all the time.

[gitanamama]

Thank you Mama4life14!  So good to hear that it's possible that this misery will be short lived! I'm trying to stay distracted as much as I can-- the more I focus on my symptoms, the worse they are. I still let myself come check in here though--misery loves company!!

I seem to have moved out of the "need protein, especially MEAT protein!" aaaaallllll the time space and that's so very awesome. It was really grossing me out to consume so much meat constantly . Now, we eat meat and all but don't like to have loads of it at every meal every day. As it stands it seems I have to walk this fine line of eating constantly, and this can be fruit, veggies, whatever, but not overeating . I've really been enjoying grapes the last few days and fruit just looks good in general.

My emotions are a little wonky. I almost busted out crying in the middle of the farmer's market last night thinking about all DS1 has to deal with in the food allergy department . Sure, it could be worse but he just needs to be able to be a little boy sometimes without all this crap hanging over his head.

9 weeks 5 days here and finally feeling GREAT!!! This is my 2nd pregnancy and MS definitely started sooner this time...right at 5 weeks. I was on the couch all day for some days, throwing up all day a few other days and just miserable. But seriously I hit 9 weeks and I am so glad the worst seems to be over. If my stomach gets empty though, nausea creeps back in so I have to be real good about eating every 2 hours. There is hope :)

Thank you so much for this. I just hit 8 weeks yesterday, and even though m/s is not seriously worse than it was, it's a little bit worse. I have all day nausea (thankfully no vomiting) alongside an irritating headache, and I just want it to be over so I can start to really enjoy being pregnant! I keep praying that this is the worse of it and that from here on out it's going to get better. I am praying for all of you that this is so as well!

[palmafm]

I'm at nearly 7 weeks now, and am starting to feel nauseous from lunch time on (getting worse as the day goes on), luckily no puking yet.  Also am feeling insanely moody...its been really bad the last few days.  The extreme fatigue is getting better though (I think).  And haven't been having as many headaches
