Is anyone else is their fifth week and fed up of all the worrying that comes with the first bits? I keep reading horror stories, hope everything's ok. How is everyone else this early on feeling?
I'm desperate to get to a scanable week. Can't wait to see my tiny tot.
My main change has been my boobs but I get a lot of cramping.
It's my first baby.
How is everyone else coping?

try relax enjoy it before you are too uncomfortable/sick to do anything good luck do something to distract you whilst you wait!

I'm not, I'm 22 weeks now with my first but I remember it well. It felt like such a long time to get to a more...stable part of the pregnancy, but it does go. I have to say though, get used to the worrying because there is always something to worry about and the reassurance of a scan only lasts about 4 days, I find before I start thinkuing something else is wrong!

Congratulations by the way!

Hi hayley
Congrats on your BFP
five weeks is indeed very early. Worrying is part of hte process I think, I'm 11 weeks and still worrying, have a scan soon but still thinking about it all the time.
Still being sick which I'm hoping is a good thing (about hormone levels) but no fun at all.
Just take every day as it comes it's all you can do.

Thanks every1. Think i need to relax, I'm just so excited hehe. Congratulations to all of you too.

Isn't it weird that we all suddenly want to be sick in the early stages of pregnancy just as reasurance haha, I've never wanted to be sick before!!

I was sick for a few days but I'm ok now. I'm guessing it will come in waves.

When does baby get a heartbeat?
