January Mommies

Do any of You NOT have any PG symptoms? or is it too soon? I have minor twinges here and there but sometimes, I wish I had the morning sickness to validate the pregnancy. I am trying my best to not deny myself the happiness of this pregnancy but, I guess after the heart beat u/s I'll feel much better.

Re: January Mommies

Not a January mommy - bu I felt the same way in the beginning. I never got morning sickness. At the time it worried me but now I am thankful!
At about 7 weeks the fatigue set in and I was always really hungry - if I didn't eat every 2 hours I would get nauseous.
I did not get happy or even admit it was really happenening until after my 12 week sono. After having been through so much trying to get pregnant it is completely normal you feel that way!

Re: January Mommies

I still feel barely anything. I get tired here and there (but thats normal for me) and once in a while Ill notice a sore boob... but otherwise I feel perfectly normal. I would have no clue I was pregnant if I wasnt trying.

Also.. the only other thing I have noticed is that I cant get in the mood to eat anything.

Re: January Mommies

I totally feel like this! Dh and I will go to see the heartbeat on Tuesday, and I think that will help me (well, us) to feel more confident about this pregnancy.

I'm 5w0d today and I think I caught a cold, so I'm feeling really run down. I get ravenously hungry and then when I go to eat, I get grossed out. Besides those symptoms, I get the occasional twinge or cramp but other than that, I don't feel pregnant. As a matter of fact, I POAS yet again today because this is so unreal to me!

I'm glad you posted this thread because I feel the same way.



Oh, and by the way? I have totally stopped overreading posts on the pregnancy board. I saw something about mistaken miscarriages and chemical pregnancies and I cried. I guess the hormonal issues are kicking in as well!!!




duh, how could I forget a/b this symptom (thanks for reminding me, Jen!). My boobs are huge and the most sore that they've ever been. At 5w0d, I'm considering buying a new bra (sports bra maybe?) to accommodate my new and improved (lol) punching bags.

Re: January Mommies

Same thing here, slightly more tired and somewhat sore boobs- Other than that- my normal self...I felt the same way w/ DS and honestly didnt start feeling pregnant till MUCH further along, when the uncomfortableness started (after the belly started growing)....Consider ourselves the lucky ones - MS can be a nightmare from what I've heard...I agree, I'll be more at ease after the HB sono (Tuesday )

If you are only 5 weeks you will probbaly not see the heartbeat on Tuesday. The heart doesnt start beating until the 6 week mark. I went for a sono at 5w6d and did not see a heartbeat yet. I am going Wednesday at 7w1d to see it.

Oh, thanks for telling me this! I would have freaked out. What will I see on Tuesday's sonogram? Amniotic sac with a blob? I hope that I'll see something to confirm this pregnancy.

Re: January Mommies

Thanks!
Okay, now I feel better. I do have hunger pangs. I want the sore bbs! LOL

As for the U/S, I was suppose to go in next week but my RE will not be in. So by the time I have my u/s, I will be 7 weeks and should be able to see the heart beat.

Re: January Mommies

Just popping in (June Mom to be)...I didn't have morning sickness but I was ravenously hungry but with food aversions! I would mentally inventory the entire house before I would find the one thing that I could eat! My boobs hurt worse on a regular cycle than they have all PG and I was very bloated! I was so tired too, in the first tri. I would go to sleep by 9pm, and sometimes that was after a nap from 7-7:45pm. Be happy if you aren't sick!

Re: January Mommies

I have no "real" symptoms. Im tired and have been napping more. I cant sleep at night. But no morning sickenss. my boobs are sore but not killing me. I cant wait until Thursday to go to the dr. the maybe hear the heartbeat. It may still be to early, but still I will feel better seeing something.

Re: January Mommies

I've had some nausea and I threw up a little bit. The boobs have been killing me from earlier on, but now its starting to ease up. If I sleep on my stomach, the right one just kills me. Friday I went to the RE for my check up at 6 weeks and all we saw was the sac, no heartbeat yet, so hopefully at my next appt on Friday we will see it. My beta # was 9000 and it keeps going up. My feet and calves have been swollen but yesterday I had no swelling. Tuesday, I'm going to my primary care doctor to see what is going on with my breathing problem. Its actually the first time since October that I don't have to drop my pants in the doctors office

Oh wow!!! Thanks for posting this!!! I'm a little bummed because I thought you could see more, but at least it's SOMETHING right?

Re: January Mommies

thank goodness! a thread i can relate to!!

i totally feel like i have no symptoms whatsoever! i keep on mentally reminding myself that we do have a sono picture to prove that this baby really is inside of me!!! i have no boobs to begin with so def no soreness there. no nausea, no tiredness, nada!! .

i will say is that my hunger level drops really fast from one moment to another and that gets me feeling sick. also, i have this pinch in my lower left back that towards the end of the day, like clockwork, starts getting to me and it's uncomfortable to try to sleep/lay down, but it disappears during the day. i think that's wierd, not sure if it's the sciatic nerve or something, but those are the only two things i've noticied thus far. i'm 8w1d today

everyone says you're LUCKY and i'm just like okay! if you say so!!

Re: January Mommies

I took 5 HPT's because of this....I have been very tired since the beginning of my pregnancy, but other than that was not feeling any other symtoms UNTIL about a week ago....now I don't feel so hot in the mornings, I haven't gotten sick..but def feel nauseous sometimes now. So, it might be too soon, or you might be lucky and not feel sick at all

Re: January Mommies

I'm about 7 weeks and my symptoms are consistent. I still super tired and this weekend is actually helping me catch up on some rest and relaxation.
y boobs still hurt a bit and I do get some strectching in my lower abdomen but it isn't as consistent as it was. I go to the doctor Wednesday for my first appointment and hope everything goes well. Wish me luck girls!

Re: January Mommies

I'm a December mom, but I just wanted to tell you not to worry. The first few days after my BFP, I felt very quesy all day. Then, it completely went away. The following week I was exhausted, but didn't really have any other symptoms. I didn't have sore boobs until about 6 weeks. My m/s really kicked in around then too. If you don't get m/s, consider yourself lucky. It sucks.

Re: January Mommies

Today is day 1 of week 6 for me (since I ovulated)

I have been fatigued since i first POAS; that was one of my first symptoms really

I have NO appetite at all; everything makes me nauseus until about 5pm - then I get hungry

I get some twinges here and there, especially if i move quickly, getting in or out of bed I get some cramps
OH, and my boobs have hurt since the day i "O"d and have not stopped since!

I'm going for my next sono on Saturday to hopefully see the heartbeat

This is what I saw at 4 weeks 4 days

Re: January Mommies

I am about 9 weeks and I feel really tired constantly. We planned a MD BBQ before I knew I was pregnant. We have about 40 people coming over throughout the day. I don't know how I am going to make it without a nap!

I am already feeling exhausted!!!

Re: January Mommies

I am 5 weeks and I've been tired, I pee a lot and I have the "bloodhound syndrome" I smell everything and so many smells are bothering me now! If I don't eat every 3 hours I get queasy.
Oh and my husband says "I'm pickier than ever" lol Good luck, and don't worry many women don't have any symptoms! Consider yourself one of the lucky ones!
