Second pregnancy symptoms

In my 1st pregnancy I felt really uncomfortable overall. The first symptoms were a really bad backache, had a burning feeling in the left area around my ovary and bloating. And then after week 5 the nausea started too.

I have been trying to get pregnant again and I am going through fertility treatment. I have PCOS and underactive thyroid but I get medication for it.

A day after my ovulation, this month, according to OPK, I started having a constant dull back ache and sometimes my whole left leg feels numb too, and this slight uncomfortable pain continues to today. I also had some bad spots for a week, which is really unusual for me, but these gone down a lot!

I have read that your symptoms differ almost for every pregnancy.

Has any of you had just a dull backache and acne as pregnancy symptoms?

My cycles are long and unpredictable, even on medication, so I can not test yet but according to my FLO ap my period should be here this Friday.

Posted the same question yesterday and no one has replied to either of my questions Sad

Has anyone out there had mild pregnancy symptoms as the ones I described above?

I haven't experienced a second pregnancy, but I do believe that each pregnancy is different. However, at 1 DPO, you won't have pregnancy symptoms. Fingers crossed for you.

They do differ depending on the pregnancy or you might have similar pregnancies. My second pregnancy (first ended in mmc) is was much more nauseous but vomited less.

If the pain is travelling down your leg though I would get a check from your docs to rule out sciatica. Hurts like a son of a bitch.

Didn't want to read and run! Yes pregnancy symptoms can vary, though for a lot of women early symptoms can be the same in all pregnancies.

At 1dpo though you won't have any pregnancy symptoms. These won't begin until the fertilised egg implants at around 7-10dpo. Good luck.

Hi hun I just got my BFP at 10dpo! 2nd pregnancy. I had painful implantation with DS but I have been more or less symptomless since ovulation this month!! Last month could have named every symptom going but AF came. Definitely can all be different. Also feel way more aware 2nd time around! Good luck 🤞

Thank you all for your replies!

This was my first month on Letrozole (Clomid hasnt worked for me. My periods were reduced to 1 day with medium flow which isnt at all how I used to be when I wasn't on it.

The 1st time I got pregnant, I was extremely lucky and conceived within a month of trying. From my notes the symptoms started really early on, must have been from week 1. I didnt know it at the time though.

It will make us happier to have a little one and will be able to cope with the outside world better.

Our little Erica was born at 28+2 and a week after her birth, she passed away from a bad infection.

Its hard to look at other pregnant women, or seeing newborn babies around. Especially when you can tell some of the parents are not mature enough and are not capable of looking after their kids. Makes you think why them and not me? Sad
