So, is this pregnancy then?

I was feeling quite pleased with myself that at 8 weeks pregnant, I hadn’t had any pregnancy symptoms. This has all changed in the last couple of days and wondered if any other ladies out there had been feeling the same.

The first thing I noticed was when I was given a gentle hug from a friend the other day it felt like my boobs had been put in vice! Along with not being able to walk up a small hill near my house without taking several rest stops (and being over taken my two old ladies!) my body suddenly decides it wants to lie down. Cue me nearly fainting in a 1950s movies way but no where near as glamorous (quite scary really).

Having spent the afternoon with my feet elevated I got a phone call from my husband saying he would be two hours late for dinner as he was busy at work. At this point I lost it, telling him what he could do with the dinner and having an overwhelming desire to shove the phone up his…..

Anyway, when he did return home, my emotions went between feeling tearful, wanting to punch someone’s lights out and laughing at what a nutcase I had been!

So, is this pregnancy then?!!! xxx

Ahahahahaha! That pretty much summed up my pregnancy

Please STOP! It's all coming back to me now

Renee, you make me laugh so hard   I have to say this is pretty true though - the rotating pineapple is probably the closest

Welcome to OB from me too - pregnancy is an interesting experience, but having a baby is the best thing in the world

The rotating pineapple is not a good mental image!!!    Ouchies.

Glad to say didn't get morning sickness much but oh my goodness the tiredness does my head in....and I am getting puffed SO easily, like today I was talking to someone and I felt short of breath. Sigh. (literally!!!)
And the bit that scares me is that I am not even that far along yet so what is it gonna be like in 3-4 months haha!

Hmm I think I might be crazy..even after reading all the above posts I still crazily, desperately, whole-heartedly want to be preggie!

I've been prescribed Losec for the heartburn. Really helps - a lot more than Gavsicon (they work in different ways).
Best wishes, DzinerGirl!

And then you get those lovely people that tell you they "loved every minute of being pregnant" and you can feel yourself lunging for their throats!!
BTW Im sure those people are either just lying or they have memories like goldfishes!!!!!

I loved being pregnant with my first two, I had no MS or anything, was just off most foods. I got the increased libido and the glowing skin and shiny hair.

So needless to say I was looking forward to being pregnant again and so far at 7 weeks 4 days I have MS, constant sore boobs since 5 DPO with some days worse that others and my skin is all dry and crusty, my hair gets greasy after one day and my bags under my eyes have changed into suitcases

I guess two outta three aint bad huh? lol
