When did you start having pregnancy symptoms?

[turtletop90]

I don't feel pregnant at all yet. (only 4.5 wks)

With DD, I was already having some minor symptoms by this time. If anything, I feel great. It's concerning me. :/

When did your symptoms start? Did you have a boy or girl?

With both my boys I felt nauseous and off literally as soon as I got a BFP at 4 weeks.

This time I felt a bit nauseous but actually, pretty awesome energy 4 to 5.5 weeks. I was running faster and was stronger. I kept thinking something was wrong. Then I started to feel like ass and was that way until 16 weeks. We're Team Green this time so can't say if it is a gender thing.

ETA: with both previous pregnancies my breasts hurt early on and were tender and sore until 12 weeks. This time I didn't feel anything in my breasts until 19 or 20 weeks and it's been different - they hurt but haven't really grown much. First time I went up a cup size almost right away. Not sure if it's because I weaned about 4 weeks before getting pregnant again.

I felt exhausted starting 4 or 5 days before my missed period. I'm having a girl.

But I think it's totally normal to not have any symptoms to not have any symptoms until 6 or 8 weeks or even later.

Boy. No symptoms until I started gaining weight in 2nd tri.

Not being sick doesn't mean something is wrong. Be thankful!

[Brie]

I didn't have any serious "whoa, I'm pregnant" symptoms either time until about 6 weeks.

Both boys.

[thebreakfastclub]

I never had any pregnancy symptoms really.

[CloudBee]

Right away. I totally had that "there's something under my skin" and "I'm not alone" feeling, which is one thing that prompted me to test. I got a super early BFP.

Morning sickness was in full swing by week 6, as was bloat. Oh man. The bloat.

You aren't supposed to actually ADMIT this to anyone.

Just accept and carry on.

[sometimesrunner]

I'm 5 weeks and so far swollen, tender boobs and bloating.

[scribellesam]

Right around 6 weeks both times, with morning sickness and fatigue. Boys both times.

[linz]

I never had m/s but felt bloated and boobs hurt early on (could have been from IVF and doing PIO) I felt nausea around 8 weeks and that's when my exhaustion kicked in. Besides napping every day after work from about 8-13 weeks I had a pretty easy first tri.

[countthestars]

Before a + pg test. Nausea x 1000000. Lasted until 11 weeks on the nose (plus puking daily! hooray!). Girl.

[timorousbeastie]

Pretty much from the moment of implantation! Right around 10 or 11 DPO, I got horribly bad heartburn that lasted until I delivered. Breast tenderness started right around then, too. Nausea started at 5.5 weeks. I have a girl.

[turtletop90]

Well, I guess these answers blow my theory that maybe it's a boy. lol

I guess I should be thankful. With my first pregnancy, I had to keep crackers by the bed already at this point.

I felt so bloated the day I tested (12 dpo). I had a girl.

I thought I was telling her what she wanted to hear!    Everything was smooth sailing until the C/S...  

[Velar Fricative]

Aside from a few random days (non-consecutive) of mild nausea throughout first tri and mega bloat, I never really felt pregnant until my belly popped and I started feeling kicks. I have a girl.

[rootbeerfloat]

M/S kicked around 6w both times. One of each.

[shekels1222]

Sore boobs during my 2ww for all three of my pregnancies. But it was such a subtle difference than my PMS boobs that I only really noticed it the third pregnancy.

With DS I started feeling slight nausea around 8 weeks and ended around 13 weeks

With this pregnancy I started feeling nausea around 6 weeks but it was so much worse. I blame it on the fact I'm pregnant with a girl this time.

[Deleted]

My earliest symptoms started in the fifth week and included insane cramping, sore boobs and shortness of breath.

The food aversions started in week 6.

I had a girl.

[Deleted]

DS1 not until about 7ish weeks. And even then it was mainly heartburn. DS2 was much worse and started about 5 weeks with hot flashes, nausea and being so, so tired.

[sunshine608]

4 weeks- stomach not right, exhaustion, hot flashes. I suffered thinking I had mono/was dying before testing at 5.5 weeks.

boy.

[Blue Moon]

I didn't really have any and I had a girl.

[meij]

With DD I was sick (couldn't keep even water down until on meds) from 5 weeks to 20 weeks. Tired, achy, nosebleeds, terrible leg cramps. Felt very pregnant from very early on.

Second baby (a boy) I could have been on I Didn't Know I was Pregnant. I had one day I felt nauseous, I never threw up, wasn't tired, never had a leg cramp, didn't even show until 20 weeks. I was convinced I was having a hysterical pregnancy and it was all in my head. The last half I did get a lot of heartburn and had pelvic girdle pain (couldn't rollover without help sometimes).

[shellbear09]

Girl and the nausea started about 6-7 weeks.

[Yankees21]

I was very nauseated right away, but I had severe nausea/vomiting my whole pregnancy so wouldn't count that as normal. I had a boy.

[chickadee77]

Girl. Heightened sense of smell around 6 weeks. Nothing else until poultry aversion around 11-12 weeks. Then nothing else until I felt her feet in my ribs every day. My pregnancy was pretty awesome, though. I always said that if I hadn't gotten as big as a house around 30 weeks, I could understand the "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant " folks, lol. Oh, and lots of gas, lol. Prob around 25 weeks.

[miss.colorado]

Super hungry around BFP (it made me step back and think, "this is weird") and then sore boobs around 6 weeks maybe? Other than that, I've felt pretty damn awesome. Yes, I know karma will pay me back somehow.

ETA: boy

[sjh722]

Around 6.5 weeks with DD, I was nauseated all day, every day until 11 weeks. Before that, I was just extra hungry.

With this one I was nauseous the day after I got a positive test, and am still sick if I go without meds at almost 14 weeks.

[turtletop90]

Thanks guys, this helps me feel better.
