I found out last week I am pregnant am about 5 weeks today.

I have:
Pains no not pains as such twinges in my stomach, and pain in the sides not severe annoying.

Uncomfortable pain above navel, when pressed break wind so guessing I have trapped wind nice!

Alot of the discomfort comes just before bowel movement and goes after.

Am totally exhausted to the point where today I am walking into things I am so tired.

Slight back pain but nothing major.

Also have more mucus down there.

I have one dd, but can't for the life of me rremember what pains I had, I know I had an early scan for pain on my side due to possible ectopic, which turned out to be a cyst on my ovary. I remember going right off coffee with her.

This time I haven't gone off coffee, is that normal too?

Sorry so long, didn't realise there was so much going on.

Thank you.
Oh good, I don't know why I am more nervous this time that last.

Hope the wind issue goes soon though

Sounds absolutely normal - congratulations! The joys of pregnancy eh?

Yes, I remember bad wind issue when I was due with dd, but not this early, think that might be what's causing some of the other discomfort to be honest.

Can't wait for scan, then I can join a due in thread

nunnie, I have been much more nervous this pregnancy than the first.

Spent the first one in blissful ignorance.

I'm 7 weeks and that's exactly how I felt two weeks ago, although I've gone a little off coffee! So I guess it's normal? I hope

All perfectly normal and very similar to me (I, too, am about 5 weeks pregnant and also have a DD). I'm off tea this time though, much to my disgust.

Congratulations!

Congratulations!! I am 14 weeks pregnant with my second, some things are exactly the same and some are very different to last time so wouldn't worry about the coffee thing.

I had stomach cramps which I read is your uterus stretching and growing to accomodate the new baby.

Was much more tired this time than I remember being last time but nowhere near as sick as I was.

Had a much more discharge and it was a bit greenish (other threads on here have discussed that too).

Also the bowel slows down because of hormones so wind is totally normal too.

I was much more nervous this time and didn't tell anyone until after my scan! Good luck!!!!
