My pregnancy symptoms have been so variable.
Aside from the constant frequent urination, I feel completely different from day to day.
My breast tenderness comes and goes throughout the day. Right now, for instance, I feel nothing. But last night, they felt a bit sore with slightly sharp pains behind the nipples. I never know what to expect when it comes to my knockers. It literally changes minute to minute. They are, however, still huge and veiny.
5 weeks is when you're supposed to be exhausted, right? I was super tired last week but this week I'm full of energy. I'm forcing myself to sleep as much as possible because I know the baby's organs are starting to develop this week; but truth be told, I just don't feel that tired. It doesn't help that I am having a hard time sleeping at night because D snores like nobody's business. I swear it is so loud and obnoxious, I don't know how he doesn't wake himself up.
As far as nausea, it hasn't hit me yet. I *might* feel a bit queasy from time to time but it's hard to tell. I'm not sure because I have such a strong gag reflex anyway (just thinking about something gross will make me gag) that I can't tell if what I'm feeling is genuine - or if it's just a manifestation of my desire to have morning sickness.
So there you have it. 5w4d today and sometimes I feel pregnant and sometimes I don't. I know my HCG levels are rising, but I don't know how pregnancy symptoms are related. I know it's still pretty early - I guess only time will tell! Each day is certainly a new bodily adventure...
Hey any of you pregnant ladies - can you shed any light?

my knockers hurt more in the 10 week to now then at first .. as for my nausea - it hit hard for me around 6-7 weeks. Also the tire thing - i didnt feel "tired" like i feel now. i freakin feell exhausted - but that was also around 10-11 weeks.
Some people just do much better on the symptoms card then others. i prayer that yours remains relatively good. *I am not one from the school of thinking that the worse the symptoms, the better the viable the pregancy*
hope you are having a good holiday and wishing you a merry christmas
I am right there with you. I had an IUI and am PCOS too. I am 4 weeks 6 days. Just went for my beta today and it is 2038!! Its oubling every 36 hours. Praying with you that my U/S on jan 2nd goes fine....
28w2d and the nipples, oh, the nipples are hurty. All. The. Time. This week I've gotten some sharp pains in the breast, too, which I used to get occasionally before I got pregnant, so gods only know. BTW, if you haven't already bought a bra with a bigger cup size, trust, you'll soon want to.
I was nauseous up through 11w or so, with a few moments and a couple of days of nausea around 16w, I think, always when I brush my teeth, and with the stomach bug I had this week.
I hope you're fairly symtpomless (but with just enough to remind you that yeah, you are pregnant).
Just wanted to tell you that I had pretty much no symptoms, I am 20w now. In the beginning I had just a slight decrease in appetite, nothing seemed too appealing to me. But really nothing major. And the breast tenderness would come and go. But that really doesn't matter (and I was worried about the lack of symptoms) as my baby is completely fine (just went for the anatomy scan today).
