I have felt like crap the past few days.. just achy all over, somewhat nauseated, and a little crampy and quite gassy / indigestion as well. My days and nights are crossed because I have difficulty sleeping at night... can't get comfortable , yet I sleep through the day.
Is it normal to feel achy all over and all the other stuff I said above at 6 weeks 3 days pregnant??
I am interested to hear from others who have been through this!
Thanks.

Welcome to the wonderful world of pregnancy! lol I am 8 weeks and am feeling the SAME as you!! It should go away at the 12 weeks point. Try Gaterade and salteens for nausea, a body pillow to sleep with to get comfy, and for the gas, cant help you there! lol that just doesnt go away. Same with the cramps. Hope this helps you! CONGRATS BTW :)

woohooo! same as me!! well....not sure about the 3 day part. but yeah i feel gross too. and to top that off, i fall asleep mid-sentence now. ask your doctor about Beano for the gas and pepto for the indigestion. some doctors are nice and let you take it. either that or Tums. The cramping is your uterus stretching. I get that too. a warm bath works wonders!! or even the hubby's hand massaging your tummy helps. tylenol works for some of the achy feeling. but before you run off to the drug store call your doctor's nurse just in case. I get bad sleep at night but that's because i get vivid nightmares during pregnancy (why, i don't know) try starting an evening ritual to help you get some sleep. Like eating something heavy like plain mashed potatoes

Yes its very normal when however I was in my 1st trimester I had no trouble sleeping my problem sleeping I slept from the moment I got home til morning if know one woke me up. The smell of food made me nauseous and I never could eat turkey or Italian dressing/oil and vinegar (like on a sandwich) (the whole pregnancy) my problem was I could never throw up. I know people are like why would you want to throw up I just felt if I could throw up then I wouldn't feel so crappy! It is normal to cramp you stomach is growing so rapidly. Now I wasn't gassy I just couldn't stay out the bathroom it was like I had the runs for 3 months! Hang in there it gets better and if not it'll all be worth it when your baby gets here I promise. Good Luck

I am also 6 weeks pregnant, but with my first baby. I have had some of the worst cramps you can imagine and it terrified me. I went to the hospital twice and turns out, all is fine. I don't think you should worry but it wouldn't be a bad idea to go to the doctor and ask just to ease your mind. The last thing that baby needs is for you to be stressed. CONGRATS MOMMY!!!

it's normal. a lot of women feel achy while pregnant. i was achy all over throughout the first 2 or 3 months. the symptoms may vary between women, but it's normal. you have nothing to worry about. by the way congrats.

I don't want to scare you but I never had heartburn unless I was pregnant and it was so awful I could not sleep. It lasted up until the day I gave birth. My back hurt, I did ache, I was just sick feeling throughout the whole thing. I don't want to do a wives tale but I had a girl. My last pregnancy I felt great, had no nausea, slept ok, I did have a bit of heartburn but it was ten times easier and I had a boy. HMMMMMM....

This is the worst time as far as feeling tired & achy. In about 7 weeks, you'll feel a lot better. Then you get to enjoy showing & glowing! :) Take naps as often as you can and just think of the beautiful baby you'll be holding soon.
Good luck!

YES YES YES i know what you are feeling i went through the same thing i went all 5-6 mths vomiting and aching all over couldn't sleep and had to go to the bathroom frequently... But the good thing it all went away a few mths before labor it is worth it after you see your baby out of you

dat's motherhood. a small price to pay to carry the little one. u'll feel tired n lethargic n can sleep soundly during the day. but u'll stay awake at night. Nauseousness is so common n ur mood is terribly sensitive. but not every pregnancy is like this. hopefully by ur 2nd trimester, those irritating stuff will go away. meantime, juz bear wif it kay.take care.

Welcome to pregnacy! You will or not get some of the following
moodiness, bloating, morning and evening sickness (I don't know why they call it that?), crazy cravings, consipatied and many more to follow but you get my drift! I don't want to depress any pregnant moms out there and yes I am one of them. But I never had any kind of sickness crazy cravings, NOthing at all!
You will do just fine! Good luck and enjoy!
