It makes me feel better seeing the line get darker. Plus the Wal-Mart tests are so cheap I don't feel guilty testing so often. I do have 5 FRER left and I plan to take one of those each week until my first appointment.
I do the same thing! I have a bunch of HPT strips and I test everyday and will continue to until my appt
Nauseous with some vomiting. I'm nervous that I will have HG for this pregnancy, too. Sore boobs, exhausted, emotional. Overall, super fun to hang out with! ?
I'm 4 weeks, 5 days and I feel pretty good. Mild fatigue, but not enough to slow me down or make me want to have to nap. Twinges in my ute occasionally (but that could all be in my head). Lower back ache. That's it. Safe to say I'm a bit anxious. I have been taking $.88 Wal-Mart tests every other day to continue to confirm that I am pregnant. I'm riding the crazy train!
I have 1 test left and really want to use it (I use 2 already). Just to be sure.
MH, who is still a little in denial, asked me if I was sure I was pregnant. I had some extra Wondfos so I took a test at 5 weeks to ease his mind. The test line changed color as soon as it got wet and the test line was just as dark as the control line!
The exhaustion. Today I managed to leave the office early and snag a pre-daycare pickup nap, but it's probably not going to be a regular thing. It's going to be a long trimester.
I just woke up a few minutes ago out of a sound sleep. I staggered to the bathroom and threw up. I'm not convinced it's morning sickness and not my postnatal drip or something I ate...
Still so tired though. I could hardly keep my eyes open at dinner last night.

Sorry for your rough night teraiin! Sounds terrible. I woke up with a full blown cold & crazy nausea... like you, could just be the drip! My PNV makes me nauseous every day, but this is a special kind of nausea. It feels dumb, but I'm secretly glad about it :-P
More ute twinges today and a lower backache. I also feel kind of gassy/crampy. Oh and tired... On a positive note, my pregnancy test was still positive this morning

I'm 6 weeks tomorrow. My boobs are a bit sore, I'm a little more tired than normal, and peeing more especially at night. I have my first u/s this week on Thursday with my RE. I'll be 6w4d.

I had tons of weird twinges and lots of bloat when I was 4-5 weeks. Like tons. Peed on 7 sticks lol.

I'm pretty sure any "symptom" I've had so far are all in my head. Notable exception might be peeing more but even with that I wonder, "would I really being going to the bathroom now if I didn't know I was pregnant?" I'm playing crazy mind games with myself!
Yeah still cramping here as well. Today I've so emotional I teared up/cried because my husband said I was being dramatic about hurting my back, then twice at a wedding, and finally when we were driving home I broke down and ugly cried because I am a extremely awkward person and I can't socialize in a normal way. I am so hormonal.

Big {hugs}. I'm crazy hormonal when I'm pregnant esp with DH. He can be such an insensitive asshole.
I'm sorry you had such a rough emotional day. Let it all out and then know you are ok and things will feel better tomorrow. And then let your DH know you'd appreciate more supportive words for the remainder of 9 mo. Even when it makes no sense to him.

so many ((((hugs))))
I just left a wedding and realized that I can't socialize like a normal person without booze; either that or, I just don't like people when I'm sober; or I'm pregnant and completely overanalyzed the entire situation.

I'm 5 weeks today (Saturday). I'm definitely having mild stretching cramps in my uterus..tired but that's pretty much my norm, on and off breast tenderness, and freaking diarrhea just like I had with my first.. It freaking sucks!!! No morning sickness here..don't mind me I just can't eat or drink without having to run to the toilet..I'll be glad when this passes.

Me too. I didn't vomit with my first but had diarrhea. It's back. I can't eat anything!!! Basically I'm on the brat diet. Can't wait to eat again.
I'm typically constipated (tmi?) but since a couple days before I got my BFP I've been having... well.. looser poops. Not diarrhea but definitely not typical for me. I assumed it was something I had eaten but maybe it's not. Granted, I'm only a little over four weeks right now so probably most of the symptoms i have are exaggerated by my brain.

Same same. I went to a family party yesterday & it was SO awkward. I know everyone knows I'm pregnant, which, whatever at this point, but nobody said a word about it... and I wasn't about to bring it up because there was also a ton of people I didn't know there. It was like... everyone was eluding to me being pregnant and wanting to give me unsolicited advice... or maybe I was overanalyzing everything and imagining every sentence anyone said with the words "because you're pregnant" on the end. You shouldn't eat hot dogs (because you're pregnant), Be careful on the jet ski (because you're pregnant), Let me help you off the boat (because you're pregnant)... yep... probably in my head.
Now I am having the dreaded symptom fade and I'm panicking because my boobs hurt less than they did a few days ago... Does anyone feel mildly crazy? Like, you know your thoughts are irrational but you think them anyway and can't help it? I DID take my second & last FRER today & it was significantly stronger than last week, so that was good. I wish my boobs hurt more though... where can I buy a ticket for the crazy train?
Put me in the boat of people who don't socialize well. I am SOOOO bad at small-talk, like super awkward. I hate it!
I too have very little symptoms; ute twinges, a little more frequent urination and a little fatigue. It actually took me over yesterday and I had to take a nap mid day. I took a FRER this morning and the test line was way darker than the control line and showed up as soon as my urine touched it. No more testing until next weekend.
For those having pooping issues, you should totally get a Squatty Potty. Info Here I got one a few days ago and both my husband and I have used it a few times and can totally tell the difference! Complete elimination! Its pretty awesome. There is a ton of scientific data to support that a squatting position is much more effective for pooing.

Punching my ticket for the crazy train! I've lost it. My "symptoms" come and go.... Plusalso, I had a dream last night I miscarried.... Thanks a lot brain.

Edit:Words
small talk makes me super uncomfortable..... SUPER uncomfortable.
walkek85, I took one of my last FRER yesterday under intentionally poor circumstances. Like super dilute urine and no holding, just to prove to myself I'd test positive under all circumstances. MH just sort of shook his head and laughed.
Add me to the list of people who dread small talk!
