Hello everyone,

I'm 5weeks + 5days pregnant. I got a positive test at 12 DPO DP so I have known for the last fortnight.

Not sure if it's because I'm older, or because I'm more aware but I am having loads more symptoms than I did in my first pregnancy, which was 8 years ago.

So far, I've had....

  • nausea, lasting either all morning or most of the day. Resulting in reduced appetite and an aversion to anything sweet.
  • bloating, I feel HUGE and clothes are tight already
  • super sensitive smell
  • achey boobs
  • leaky boobs

Anyone else had similar? Or anyone due at the same time (end of June)?

Hi, I'm due 17th June am 6+2 2nd baby, and im also huge! So bloated Iook 3-4 months gone! you can clearly see a bump so I'm struggling to hide it from people, my first pregnancy was 5 years ago.

I'm also getting shattered, bit nauseous, and dizzy, just generally unwell x

Really I thought all the symptoms I was having were in my head! I thought 5 weeks was too early to have symptoms. I feel hungry a lot and also feel very tired through the day.
This is our first pregnancy is there a point in pregnancy when I'll completely feel like myself?

Morning ladies,
Congratulations on your pregnancies. Glad it's not just me feeling the effects so soon.

I'm due to go out with a group of friends today, but I'd honestly rather just stay at home in my pyjamas. I haven't a clue what to wear, everything is getting tight.

No lie-ins for me either as my bladder is waking me up early every day.

I've had a bit of dizziness so far @HayleyD84 but was putting that down to low iron levels as my GP already has me on tablets for that.

I can't remember to be honest @omotara1 I think things can settle down in the middle of pregnancy, but it's been a long time and this time round feels totally different to last time, so I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Keeping my fingers crossed that I can get through today's day out without anyone guessing. Think I might have a 'pretend hangover' and use that as the excuse for looking sick and not wanting anything to drink. 🤞

Hello Smile,

I'm due 16th June, I'm 6+4 weeks with my first. I'm 34 and having my bloods closely monitored as I had a Total Thyroidectomy back in January. My levels were declared normal last month so we're over the moon that we've conceived straight away.

I've had terrible queasiness and my boobs have been sore. I've had cramps and twinges and I'm constantly fearful of finding spotting/bleeding.

Does anyone else have a small bump already? My clothes are snug so I'm going too have to find some stretchy pants Grin x

Hey everyone! So I've had a bit of a drama so far... didn't get a BFP until AF was 4 days late, I then got 2 BFN after my BFP. Docs have taken bloods so results will be in on Monday.

If I am pregnant I will be 5+1 today. Since yesterday evening I have been so bloated, my clothes are feeling tight, I'm having cramps and a sharp pain in the right hand side. I'm absolutely petrified that if I am pregnant, that it's an ectopic pregnancy :(

Hello - we haven't been to the doctors yet / laziness I'm going to go next week.
I've started taking Feroglobin which has iron , follic acid (400g) , vitamin b12 is anyone else taking this?

Surprisingly today I'm okay I feel very energetic I've only had period like cramps at some point during the day other than that I'm okay today I'm praying it lasts.

How are you getting on ladies?

I thought my nausea had started to settle down but it's back tonight. Bizarrely, despite the nausea I'm desperately craving chippy chips 😏

Nails seem to have become brittle too, and I'm really tired.

Hope you're all ok and the symptoms are being gentle x

Hi all

I’m currently 7+1 and have had various symptoms off and on. Today I’ve had increased milky discharge, slight headache, sore boobs and a few fleeting moments of nausea (very brief).

My main symptoms have been increased discharge, headaches, sore breasts, some pulling/cramping feelings, tiredness and loads of saliva but these vary day to day. Only consistent symptom has been sore breasts but even that varies day to day and at different times of the day. I’ve also craved potatoes loads - have had a jacket potato most days! But fortunately not much nausea at all so I’m eating normally and managing loads of veg/salad still which I’m grateful for!
