What pregnancy symptoms did everyone get at 6 weeks? I think I have just turned 6 weeks pregnant according to my pregnancy app and I want to know what to expect from here on onwards... I've started to feel abit sick in the morning and throughout the day, headaches, unbelievably sore boobs to the point where they are hot to touch and I've had a couple days where I am extremely tired

Gas. I’m currently 5 weeks and can’t stop burping constantly. It’s hell.

Although I had HG by now with DS so I’m not complaining too much.

Sore boobs
Tiredness
Sore gums
Bit of thrush (only ever get this whilst pregnant).
Nausea
Acid reflux/heartburn
Food/smell aversions
Fancying weird things you wouldn’t normally like.
Piles (but probably because I have a 7 month old too)

I personally find I have a mild mix of these at any one stage of pregnancy, until about 28 weeks+ where the heartburn/reflux and piles start to over take the rest!

6 weeks is when the symptoms started for me. Feeling sick constantly, sore boobs to the point where my other half couldn't hug me because they hurt, completely went off my normal diet and just ate junk (the thought of any fruit or veg made the nausea worse), tiredness, mood swings ( I became really angry). It lasted till about week 11/12 then calmed down. Also anxiety (not completely gone), if the sickness subsided I started to worry that something was wrong. It's a wild ride, but you'll get through it.

Burpy, cramps, sore boobs when they touch anything, vague nausea. Had that from 5-7 and now at 7+5 the tiredness is kicking in

Around 6 weeks i had sickness ( which got worse till 12-13 weeks) , sore boobs and i used to feel very tired and sleepy all the time. I also started to develop a slight metallic taste on my tongue 24/7 which became really strong with time and I started to have strong aversion to my usual favourite foods and snacks because they started to taste funny. However, the sickness and metallic taste got better after 12-13 weeks. Wish you all the best !

I felt fairly normal at 6 weeks, apart from being off certain food.

But woah did it all hit me at once at 8 weeks..

Mainly just tiredness, the nausea didn't get too bad until at least 9 weeks but heightened sense of smell, walking around the supermarket made me want to gag, the cheese and the banana aisle I had to avoid or walk very quickly past.

So I had a early scan yesterday doctor thinks I'm about 5 weeks
