Is it normal to feel this unwell so early in pregnancy?

3 weeks and 5 days pregnant today. i genuinely feel like iv got a hangover. my boobs are on fire. especially one boob feels like the nipple is being stabbed by a hot rod.
nausea, shakes, fatigue.
this is my third pregnancy (2nd pregnancy miscarriage at 7 weeks)
my little boy is 6 and i CANNOT remember feeling this poorly😩

please reassure me this is normal to have symptoms this early ?!

edit i did have a mc April at 7 weeks pregnant. my only symptom then was my boobs but i have had 2 cycles since and then conceived🤞🏻

Bar the stabbing feeling it sounds like my first pregnancy however I ended up with Hyperemesis Gravidarum so I dont know how normal my experience was..

Yea thats normal, my sickness got worse with each pregnancy. I was 12 weeks when it started with my first 3 weeks with my 2nd and around 10 weeks with my 3rd. Although that one started later then my second i was sicker with it
