I'm over 5 weeks pregnant and had a Mc in October so I am over the moon.
I promised myself I would stop googling symptoms and causes lol but can't help it.

Wondered if you ladies have gone through what I'm going through and had successful pregnancies :)

Here goes :

I feel like I'm wet down there and get paranoid Its blood

I got very slight sharp pain in lower back (right side) very mild probably wouldn't really notice if I wasn't pregnant but I'm looking out for symptoms

I have mild cramps that sometimes I don't know if I need to poop (sorry tmi)

Tummy is bloated

And I haven't really got appetite to eat and for the past few days haven't actually had that 'I'm hungry' feel - normal?

Boobs don't hurt maybe sometimes I feel a slight tingle but not sore like other girls I have read

Sorry for all the questions!!

Basically I WANT THIS BABY! Lol

That all sounds totally normal in early pregnancy. Congratulations

I found that literally everything I googled at the beginning could pass as a pregnancy symptom! You sound right on track Smile
As for causes I’m pretty sure there’s only one GrinWink

Ha I could have written this post - in fact I spent most of the evening on google about the same things - I'm 5+2 with 5 previous miscarriages and an ectopic

  • feeling "wet"
  • discomfort on the right side of my uterus - more like a stitch than pain *tender uterus if I gently apply pressure
  • I don't feel hungry but when I do eat I don't feel full - that makes no sense 🤣 but it's the only way of describing it *boobs not really sore occasionally on the sides but maybe that's because I'm prodding them a lot! 🤣 not like the real pain other women I've read have

Firstly congratulations everyone! I'm 5+1 had an early miscarriage last month so also a bit nervy and symptom checking, yours sound totally normal I'm nauseous and keep panicking that I'm not being sick (why I want to is beyond me 🙈🤷🏻‍♀️) but a lot of people don't get symptoms or morning sickness til about 6 weeks so try to relax and enjoy 😁

I'll add my list 🙈
Waves of nausea
Bloated (look 6 months!)
Also lost my appetite leaving half my meals!
Oily skin with spots (lovely!)
Tired a lot more and earlier
Boobs feel bruised with slightly sore nipples

Don’t google pregnancy symptoms and don’t over analyse them. I say this because i did and spent weeks convincing myself everything was wrong and I had made the whole thing up.

I’m 29w and so far my symptoms have been a handful of days gagging when I brushed my teeth at the back, my boobs have grown in second and third trimester, I’ve had leg cramp 3 times and I now have a definitive bump.

So much easier said than done but try not to fixate on them too much. I read a book someone got me and each month I go through the symptoms and never seem to tick a “what’s normal” box
