Hi all. I am 5 weeks tomorrow and since the very beginning I have experienced
Cramps
Twinges
Hot flushes
Quick to temper
Desperately needing the bathroom day and night.
Now all of these symptoms have totally disappeared. I was unable to even bend to reach for something without feeling a tug and now it's stopped.
This is my second pregnancy and I don't remember this the first time. Does anyone else have the same experience or should I be worried? Thank you

Try not to worry, symptoms come and go in my experience! Enjoy the respite whilst you can ;)

Hi Dsmummy
I'm 5+5 and was having the same worries a couple of days ago, but a bit of frantic googling turned up a lot of threads with women having the same thing around week 5 and nothing was wrong, so I think it must be fairly common at this point. Woke up today to find the dog had left a smelly surprise on the kitchen floor Shock and I'm still feeling a little queasy 3 hours later so I think my symptoms must be starting to come back!

I had no symptoms at all until 6 weeks. Even some days when 30+ if I didn't have the bump I wouldn't have known! Don't worry and enjoy. Your body knows what it's doing Smile

Thanks for the replies, the dog surprise made me laughGrinGrin! I've woken up more positive today I will be sensible now. You are all quite right thank you Smile

I had strong nausea from 4 weeks which slowly tapered off around 5 weeks. All kicked back in just after 6 weeks though, and even then still had the odd good day. It's a really common thing a lot of women experience.

My symptoms disapeared for a week around 6 weeks and I panicked and went to EPU but they told me that symptons can come and go.
They then came back with a vengeance and MS stayed until about 18w
