I’m at the 5 week stage and seem to be constantly hungry! I haven’t gone off anything yet, maybe I’m a little early for that still!

 

[sarahlou7]

I'm constantly hungry as well but then my food comes and I can't face it! Then I get awful gas!

Thanks for updating the list Tara x

Did people start getting nausea straight away at 4-5 weeks? X

 

[Surveyor]

Nope not me, I started getting nausea around week 6 but some people get it as early as week 4. I've read it's "normal" to start getting symptoms at week 5-8 because that's when HCG levels start getting high.

Congrats new October mummies

I started getting nausea before even the 4 week mark actually. I was nauseous before my BFP which I got at 11dpo. In my first pregnancy I had nothing until 6 weeks.

Count your blessings these food aversions are no joke! My one pleasure down the pan

 

[hannahm987]

The ladies who are speaking of their hgc levels.... how are you getting these readings?

 

[Surveyor]

Blood tests can give HCG reading.

[hannahm987]

Is there a home test we can do?

 

[CornishGirl]

I think you have to ask your doctor.

Is anyone else finding they need to ‘go’ more often? I’m usually a once-a-day type but I’m finding I need to go at least 3 if not 4 times a day at the moment. Also still religiously poas everyday just to make sure my line is seriously dark on a cheap dipstick now! Who’s finding out the sex of their baby and who’s opting for a surprise? X

 

[Surveyor]

Drink more water the night before my BFP I thought I was about to get a UTI. Always get that feeling before AF but with my BFP it came early. Around week 6 I started getting really bad urge to go when I didn’t drink enough or wore tight clothing. When I drink enough water it is manageable. Hope this helps!

TwinkleToes how did it go with the OH?

He was shocked, but really happy!! He's told me that he's spent all day thinking about it. So we took a digital test to confirm it tonight. X
