Hi ladies, I thought I would start a thread and see how you are all coping. Im living in severe fatigue land. (my fiancé keeps joking that we are having twins). I forgot how tired you get in the 1st tri. Im also trying to drink my 2L of water a day. So bloated! I feel like I'm 6 months along already! Have a great night. ZZZZZzzzzz for me! Cheers Claire.

Totally with you - REALLY tired here (I had also forgotten the extent of it last time) and feel gross in my tummy if I don't eat often enough. It's such a catch 22 because I have to have my meals ready so I don't feel sick but I'm too tired to cook......hard life!

Hi ladies, I just found out I'm 3weeks in with my first! The increased peeing has started, feel like there's constant slight pressure on my bladder, & my boobs feel like I've got boulders hanging around my neck.... Energy levels are good though & I haven't got any nausea yet. I've been pre-emptive and having licorice tea in the mornings straight after brekky, tastes yummy & helps keep my tummy settled for the 45 min drive to work.

I'm soooooo tired, I spend all day yawning. Am incredibly thirsty all day and night - have been like this since about 1 week before I got a BFP. Also been getting those niggly corpus luteum pains, which is a nice reasurance that I really am PG. Not getting the growing pains from my uterus stretching that I got last time, but I'm guessing that's 'cos it's probably used to the stretching this time around? Hoping the ms doesn't hit me as hard this time around.

Just found out yesterday that I'm 4 weeks in on my first. Glad to hear the bloating is normal, I'm with you Claire, how am I supposed to hide this when I look like I'm halfway through already?!

It will subside, but then you go through fat porgy belly stage before popping out s nice firm belly. Haha. About to watch one born every minute, a great watch for your first baby. I'm considering it boot camp for second round of baby baking! Have a great night!

Oh goodness I hear you, feeding myself and a toddler (and ensuring a meal ready for my fiancé to take to work the next night) is surmountable to climbing Everest of late. Toast with vegemite anyone?!

Lucky i'm still in the blissful stage of only finding out I'm preggers in the last 24hrs, just turned on One Born to a woman screaming in pain! Good tip though, one of my friends watched it religiously through her first and found it really helpful. You have a great night too!

My nipples are killing me and I've lost any interest in coffee and tea. The fatigue is so awful!!

I have only just found out that I am 3-4 weeks along. I took the test as I have been feeling so bloated and it looks like I have put on 5kg in 24 hrs! My breast seem to be so much fuller and in feeding my 10 month old it's kind of painful.... They tell me because this pregnancy is so close to my last that I will show allot quicker - really looking forward to that one
