Almost 5 weeks now...

Hi all. I just wanted to chat about how I was feeling being almost 5 weeks pregnant now and see who else is there and how you are all feeling :)
I've been tired like crazy!! One minute i'll have energy, the next i am bombed out...total ups and downs as far as that goes, and i work overnights at my job, trying to sleep whenever i can is going to be trying at the least!  And the last couple of days I feel really bloated, not a BM issue either, so I am thinking it's hormones or ?? This is my first pregnancy, I don't really know what to expect. Little bit of nausea so far, nothing serious and WOW sore breasts lol.
My husband is so happy...keeps coming home from work now and rubbing my belly and kissing it. It's so sweet.
Let me know about your experiences :) Would be happy to hear any input...Thanks :)

Hey there! Well, I got my first BFP when I was around 6 weeks...I instantly noticed the change in my energy...I felt like all I wanted to do for the first few months was sleep. That, however, has drastically changed in the 2nd trimester. I have a lot more energy and I'm able to stay awake past 8:30-9 LOL! I also experienced the bloating early on...now that I'm 25 weeks in I wi**** was bloating but it's more baby and fat than anything! The gas was what was killer for me, but that too has subsided gnerously. I was very normal with my BMs til about 3 weeks ago. Now, I have to be sure to drink my V8 with fiber and at night I have a glass of Metamucil. I was having a BM every morning like clockwork and now its's right around every other day This is also my first pregnancy and it's been an amazing time...just wait til you start feeling the little one kicking and poking you all over...sometimes I think mine's an octopus with 8 legs because it's hard to imagine what's going on in there when you get a poke up high then what feels like a kick down low. :) Oh and the sore breasts- YES! That also has subsided and I don't have any tenderness or soreness at all. Hang in there cus the 2nd trimester is definitely been my honeymoon phase...almost to the 3rd for me and I'm anxious but nervouse about what's ahead. Enjoy your pregnancy too cus let me tell ya it goes by WAY faster than you could ever begin to imagine!!

Best of luck in the next upcoming months and may you have a happy and healthy pregnancy!! :)

Hello! :) I'm 6 weeks. I am tired ALL of the time. I work full time, go to school full time, married, and have my hands full with my three year old son. I dont remember being this tired with him. All I care to do is sleep. I know I need to exercise but I'm just so tired that I cant even get the motivation to do so, even walking would suffice... but thats time that i could be sleeping!! lol My breasts are extremely sore, been having food cravings, and smell aversions. Also, I have noticed the only thing that makes me nauseous is drinking liquids...which obviously is not good.  I am thirsty, its just that when i drink it makes me feel icky. Thats so cute about your husband...mine and my little boy have been doing that too. my son told me belly "i love you lydia with all my heart and i cant wait to meet you".. my heart melted.

congrats on your pregnancy and good luck!
