Yep! Your thermostat is confused! Quite a common thing for a lot of us.
Make sure you eat little and often, that can help keep you more constant.

Yes I am nearly 5 weeks and for the past week I have had really bad hot flushes then feeling really cold! It is frustrating and also my feet are like ice when normally i am a warm creature! It is hormones and I love it in a way cos you know you baby is strong. Good luck

Definitely common. I'm now 9months pregnant (he's 2 days overdue!!) so had to cope through the summer which was a nightmare. All I could do was leave the window wide open at night, and spray myself with water all the time. Oh, and drink lots. =)

Unfortunalty yes! I was like this during all of my pregnancy and it annoyed the hell out of both me and my partner. Try putting a damp flannel on both of your wrists (and ankles if your really hot). I tried this and I slept alot better and found that I feel alseep alot quicker. I also found it alot nicer if i slept with a sheet rather than a quilt. Hope this helps! Good luck x x

It's very common. My electric bill has doubled this month because of it. It reminds me a lot of how menopausal women describe hot flashes. It's all hormonal. Congratulations soon to be mommy!

Sometimes im hot, sometimes im cold (im 6 months pregnant now, btw) so i guess it depends son if you are in or out, what your wearing and pregnancy does generally increse your basal temperature.

It's common. Hormonal changes happen during pregnancy and also menopause.
Since you're preg, I guess your not that old! ;)

I never noticed that but I was very emotional
When I was pregnant with my premie ---Morris the cat wouldn't eat his cat food so I would BAWL
Hormones do some crazy things to you........so it is possible
