Hey all, I am on my first pregnancy and wondered if I could trouble some of you with experience for advice.

Is it fine if day by day symptoms aren't the same....had a couple of mornings of nausea but not too much over the last 2 days, boobs a bit sore but not getting worse.

How does anyone cope with this stuff, it's a nightmare to not just constantly think about it allllll the time....we have been ttc for nearly 2 years, had a Lap and Dye to clear my tubes and have gotten pregnant 1st month afterwards. The anticipation is just too much to take, sending me crazy already....!!

Thanks in advance xxx

Firstly congratulations!
Secondly, you'll have all sorts of symptoms at different times. I'm on my 2nd and didn't even realise I was pregnant til ten weeks or so, everyday will be different and a roller coaster of emotions.

Congrats on your pregnancy! Sorry it's been a rough journey for you.

Yes, it's normal to have varying symptoms. We are humans, not machines after all. I know it's easier said than done, but try to distract yourself as much as you can in these first weeks - they can be a bit of a drag. No amount of worrying will change the outcome, so try to enjoy it as much as you can Flowers

I think as it's happened I can't actually believe it, I don't want to let myself get too excited...so hard not to look into and question everything, but I'm sure that's what everyone is like! Thanks for messages X

Congratulations! I'm also 5wks 2 days with my first and like you I've been having different symptoms everyday. I've had tender breasts, cramping, nausea, yesterday I felt normal and today I feel like I have'nt slept in a week. I've been told it's all normal. Flowers

Hi ladies

Came looking on mums net for some reassurance - I'm also 5 weeks 3 days and symptoms seem to have waned after a couple of days when everything seemed to be in 5th gear - boobs grew, breathlessness, tiredness, then today I feel almost normal. Have been bleeding brown discharge however which is worrying, so off for first scan next Monday. Congrats and good luck - seems we're all in the same boat here so wouldn't worry about symptoms coming and going. I'm sure we'll all have enough of symptoms in the next few weeks to last a lifetime!

Hey Snowflake, great news that we are all at exactly the same stage. It's hard to not over think all the things your body is saying isn't it. I guess there will be a lot of changes. When did you find out? X

Congratulations! I'm 5wks 2 days as well, and very similar to you! I've had on and off nausea, on and off tiredness, and on and off difficulty sleeping. The only thing that's been consistent is that my boobs have been quite sore for a week or so. It's such a strange time- I'm constantly looking out for symptoms, and time seems to be going so slowly- I just want to get to the 12wk scan! And yep, I'm basically thinking about it All. The. Time.
