    Hi Bloem,
    I'm 6 weeks pregnant today.

    Hey Vlinder86,

    You don't have to worry at all about 26 being too young. Physically, a woman's eggs are strongest around age 19. From a physical standpoint, 19 is the best age to get pregnant. Socially, you usually don't have everything sorted out financially until around age 30 if you want a baby. So 26 is a nice golden middle ground, right! Enjoy it!

    That's indeed a noticeable symptom, smelling stronger! I have that too

    Well, my belly isn't lying either! :-)

    Bloem, no idea. Having blood drawn on Monday and seeing the gynae on the 17th. Last period was in January! Hadn't been regular for a while, always cycles of about 15 weeks. So by estimation... around 9 weeks. I think 10 :-) I'm also curious how far along I am. Do they see that in my blood too? The worst part right now is the nausea, I can't eat anything! And yet I'm so hungry :-s

    Hi! I'm now in my sixth week. I'm dealing with fatigue, sore breasts, and some nausea, but nothing too severe. It usually hits around 3:30 in the morning, and by the time I fall back asleep, it's gone by morning.

    Love, Angel

    @ zwijgt.

    When I read your text, it's like you predicted my pregnancy.

    I was also embarrassed about those smelly farts and bowel movements, and the gynecologist said this is strictly normal!

    I was quite embarrassed in front of my husband, but luckily he could laugh about it..

    Muscle pain is also part of it. From month 6 of my pregnancy, I started waking up in the middle of the night because I had severe cramps in my legs. I had to cry myself, which then caused severe muscle pain because I sometimes had cramps for hours. They were so severe that I couldn't even straighten my foot myself! It turned out I had a magnesium deficiency, and I had to take vitamins for it.

    Greetings

    - Super tired, especially in the afternoon (and I have to work, which is really annoying!).
    - Itchy breasts (does anyone else experience this? I can't find any info on it anywhere)
    - Irritability / short fuse.
    - Constant hunger all day long (but I'm trying not to give in. I do eat a bit earlier than usual and have a little extra, but I ignore the hunger pangs for the first 15 minutes. What do you all do?)

  9. Loreley Guest #49

    Yes, luckily! You guys fart too! I was hoping it would come with the package. My husband teases me already ;-)

    Hi everyone! It's so nice to read your replies and feel reassured :-) This is my second pregnancy, and with the first one I had absolutely no discomfort... but this time it's quite different! All in all, it's not too bad, but when I read your replies, I know I don't need to worry—there's so much that's relatable! :-) Wishing you all lots of success with the rest of your pregnancies!! :-) x

    Heartburn

    Breast pain

  12. roos Guest #52

    Good evening ladies, congratulations to all of you on your pregnancies! I'm 6 weeks and 2 days pregnant myself today. My symptoms are occasional nausea but nothing unpleasant, a bit of rumbling in my tummy, feeling hungrier than usual. I'm eating more than normal, I get tired very quickly, and I'm farting a lot. My breasts are a bit sore, but not too painful. I mainly feel it in the evenings after taking off my bra, or when I press on them, but luckily it's not too bad overall. Are these normal symptoms? x Roos, good luck to everyone with your little miracles x

    I had dizziness when I was pregnant with my eldest daughter, and later in that pregnancy I had terrible heartburn, so I took Renies because I couldn't sleep otherwise.
    When I was pregnant with my youngest daughter,
    it was very different this time. I noticed symptoms quite early on. I got a very dizzy feeling 4 days before my period was due, especially in the mornings. Not so much nauseous, but dizzy.
    And terrible hunger, always after eating something again having severe hunger as if my stomach was empty again very quickly.
    That's when I noticed I was pregnant.
    And the positive test 4 days later confirmed that.
    I was told by the midwife that I had low blood pressure due to the pregnancy, so I should eat some salty things against the dizziness. And that helped a lot, luckily.
    I didn't have heartburn like in my first pregnancy.
    Funny how it can differ.
    Greetings, Madelene

    Hey ladies, I'm on the pill but suddenly have really bad breast pain. I've had days of nausea which left me dehydrated. I feel dizzy and for the past 2 days I've been sweating heavily when I wake up, and even walking a little makes me drench in sweat. I'm also terribly tired all day long. I've been walking on eggshells, emotionally all over the place. My last period was dark blood and lasted 3 days. Has anyone experienced something similar or have any advice? Congratulations to those of you who are pregnant.

  15. Anoniem2 Guest #55

    I'm 8 weeks pregnant and I have some pain in my legs, knees, and lower back every day. I notice it most when I walk too long—a cramping feeling in my upper legs. It's a bit like what N. Coppola describes. Today we went out for the day, but I really had to keep stopping to sit down. It feels like my legs ran the whole marathon.

    Who else experiences this??

  16. Anonymous Guest #56

    Hey, I'm actually not overdue yet, but I already know it. My breasts and especially my nipples are sensitive, my tummy is doing some weird things, and I suddenly have itching around my belly and little pimples on my forehead.

  17. KimberleyNatascha #57

    I'm still 4 days before my TTP. I tested negative yesterday, but somehow I just feel pregnant. I've never been pregnant before.

    Since ovulation, I've had cramps in my lower belly. Yesterday, I sat on my husband's lap and cried like a little kid (not like me at all). I have tender nipples, and since today, I've had burning heartburn and nausea.

    I should still get my period, so there's still hope...

  18. E Guest #58

    Now 9 weeks pregnant and for the past few weeks dealing with: fatigue, sudden intense hunger (but also quickly feeling full after eating), gasiness ????, getting irritated/labile faster, more prone to worry, and more often grumpy, more frequent burping or bloating (no nausea), thinner discharge, sensitive or itchy nipples (no sore breasts), weight gain, larger breasts, worse stamina (jogging a lap is much harder than before pregnancy), lazy (no motivation to get active)....

  19. gamar Guest #59

    I'm 5 weeks late and testing negative. I do have a lot of gas though... really smelly farts and also smelly stool. Since week 5 I've had sensitive nipples, but no other symptoms. Could I still be pregnant? I just don't dare to go to the GP.

  20. Nancy Guest #60

    Here pregnant with my second child. We already have a girl (1.5 years old) and another girl is on the way.
    Both pregnancies I was nauseous until week 15, starting around week 6. Sore nipples and breasts, tired at first, lots of sweet cravings. Now 19 weeks and not much of an appetite.
