Is my symptoms in my head?

[Levi89]

Hi ladies,

I'm really early on - 6 weeks, will be 7 on Friday though! But for the past week and a half I have felt so sick it's unreal! I haven't actually been sick though. Also my breasts (I'm usually a B) has went up to a C already and now even this bra is beginning to feel tight! They are so tender though. I also feel like I need to sleep ALL the time!

I keep getting cramps also, but I've learnt from other threads on here that it'll prob be stretching so I'm not worrying to much about that!

I was reading about symptoms etc and most ladies dont get these symptoms till later in the pregnancy. Am I just paranoid and making myself feel sick etc? OH has decided that it's twins (god forbid! )

I'm also thinking I'm defo going to go for an early scan, I spoke to my midwife about going private and she was quite for it! It's pretty cheap as well - at £25 to put my mind at rest is a bargain! When would be the best time to go? I am dying to go now - I am so impatient! But 7 weeks on Friday will be to early wont it? Should I wait until next week?

I had an early scan at 6 weeks 5 days and i saw the heartbeat. I think in terms of symptons, its dependant upon the pregnancy. The day my AF was due (not that i knew it was as my cycle shifted) we went shopping and then out for a family meal for my birthday. Whilst shopping, i refused to take a lift and insisted on stairs/escalators because the lift made me dizzy, which has never happened before, and in the evening i felt really tired and manky. I also had cramping all day which continued til, well, i still get them (i have a crappy body) At 4 weeks 1 day, i was dizzy and nauseous all evening and i couldn't breathe, this continued and i ended up being diagnosed with swine flu, only to discover 2 weeks later when i was still nauseous and dizzy, although breathing better, that i was pregnant and never had swine flu. My mum had problems breathing the first few days of her pregnancies too. My symptoms started really early, way before we even knew

Anything goes with respect to symptoms hun. Best not to compare yourself with anyone else. If you are set on an early scan I'd try to wait as long as possible to avoid having to go back if they can't see the baby. At least 8 weeks I'd say.

My symptoms started around 6/7 weeks, didnt even know i was pregnant till i started feeling sick so took a test. Turned out i was 6/7 weeks gone. All depends on the pregnancy. This has to be my worst out of the 3, constantly feeling sick etc, its either a girl or twins lol x
