It was for me.

I’m 6+3, and have been attacking my nausea with an app and with sea bands. This morning I felt pretty good when I woke up. It’s all a bit worrying. I was reassured slightly when the idea of cornflakes was quite nice, but everything else was a definite no.

Then I took off my sea bands because I left them on overnight and was slightly losing circulation in my hands. Within 5 minutes, the nausea was back. Nice to have the reassurance!

I’m also having fluctuating amounts of cramping and breast tenderness. I tell myself the cramping is a good sign because it means everything is stretching as it should, but it’s mentally uncomfortable every time it returns!

In summary: I feel you. And yes, I think it’s normal

Thanks for replying I haven't had so much morning sickness! But lots of breast tenderness on and off, they are usually fine in the morning and tender at night! Such a worrying time xxx

This is my second and im nearly 6 weeks.
I keep getting mild cramping which sets me in a panic and my boobs are also more sore/tender in the evening. I am also so bloated my the evening that i have to undo the button on my jeans. Im also having nausea on and off. Just counting down until the scan so i know all is ok.

I'm 8 weeks and my symptoms have been on and off to the point that I booked myself for a private scan last week as I worried I was feeling too normal. Scan was fine and it's made me relax a bit (for now!). The days and weeks have really dragged since finding out we were expecting, can't wait to get to 12 weeks fingers crossed

I'm 28 weeks now and I found out at 9.5 weeks (don't ask )

After this symptoms came and went. Totally normal. At 12 weeks I felt really sick til about 22 weeks - so please rest assured these do come and go and if they go enjoy it it's not always a bad sign
