I’m at the very end of my first trimester. (STM). I’m soooo fatigued. Thankfully not sick like last time, but so exhausted. I’m also anxious about how a second baby is going to change our lives. Financially, time etc. Dd will be turning 2 around due date and I have some feelings (guilt?) about adding a newborn. Then I feel very guilty for feeling like that. I guess I got sort of used to the idea of having just one (future vacations and things like that) although I definitely was contemplating a second, but didn’t think it would be a reality. Babies are blessings, don’t get me wrong, but man I’m nervous.
Exhaustion has been my main symptom so far, but this week I’ve started in with nausea in the evening (same as my other two pregnancies) and some food aversions.

Got a BFP yesterday, but my boobs have been so sore for the last two weeks, I had a feeling something was up. I am 4w2d.
I have also been winded easily, I'm hungry a lot, nauseous sometimes, want to cry off and on, cramping everyday, and my brain already feels like swiss cheese. AND my damn work pants are already too freaking tight. So, I am assuming that first tri is about to drag me to the depths of hell.
Me too exactly! I’m nauseous and blah and exhausted and my boobs are so sore. I get winded walking up the stairs too! I feel like nothing fits already. I am really hoping that all this crap goes away soon or at least at 12weeks. I’m counting down the days to 2nd trimester.
The first dr appointment I could get isn’t until Aug 22
Appointment went fine, NT measurements were normal and they’ll only call regarding the bloodwork if it’s not. U/S tech had to have me cough and move a bit to get baby to move and heart rate was still normal but 5 bpm lower than the first scan. I know that doesn’t mean anything but my son was such a wiggle worm (and still is) and didn’t have a hb decrease until later, so naturally my brain goes to not great places. Just telling myself it’s fine as long as the professionals say it is, and reminding myself that no two pregnancies are alike so there is no good comparing this one to the previous.
I don't hang here any more either but wanted to pop in to say congrats Jalapeñomel!!! Enjoy your travels, good thoughts for a safe and healthy next several months!!
lexisgrrl1980 my morning sickness with my last baby peaked from about 12-14 weeks. Hopefully there’s an end in sight for you!
That’s what I’m afraid of. The last couple of days have been rough. My mom never had any issues so I don’t have a family member for reference. Hoping the next week and a half go by quick.
Have my nuchal scan on Tuesday so fingers crossed everything looks good. Will most likely do the NIPS test then as well.
I am 6w4d with my third. First appointment is next Tuesday (aug 13th). Only symptoms thus far are sore boobs and being more tired than usual. With my first, I had morning sickness starting around 6w and then it started around 8w with my second. Not sure what'll happen this time but I'd feel better emotionally if I had more symptoms.
