What did it feel like at 4 weeks, 5 weeeks, 6 weeks into pregnancy?

Question

What did you feel during these 3 time frames? Any symptoms you remember? Any you didn't have that you'd thought you would? Any spotting? I know every woman is different.

Answer 1

You are totally right on with 'every woman is different'. At 4 weeks, I was still having a little morning sickness and felt tired a lot. At 5 weeks, the morning sickness was pretty much gone, I was still tired a lot, and felt like I was bloated. And at 6 weeks, I started to get very hormonal, little things would set me off, and stupid things would make me cry. I was never a breakfast person, and at 6 weeks I would wake up in the morning starving...I HAD to eat breakfast from this point on. I learned that taking my prenatal vitamins at night made it easier on my stomach than taking it in the morning, which made me nauseous. I didn't really start feeling the 'normal' pregnancy feelings until I was around 5-6months...and then I had the back pain, heartburn(which I had never had before in my life), eating things I never really ate before and stopped eating somethings I loved before I got pregnant because now they made my stomach turn, I started to wear shoes I could slip on, I started to wear a few maternity clothing items, and my breasts got huge and hard(I went from a small C to a DD), and getting comfortable in bed became hard, because I am normally a person who likes to sleep on their belly, and now that was just uncomfortable. In reference to your spotting question- I had found out I was pregnant 4 months prior to finding the second time I was pregnant, I did have spotting that didn't stop and it turned out that I had miscarried---but for some women spotting happens and their pregnancy is perfectly fine.

Answer 2

5 months now and here is how it went for me. Get this! Week of the honeymoon. I thought I had the flu because I had flu like symptoms. I had the runs, fever, runny nose, tired, and upset because it was my honeymoon! You can never plan for the feeling of what it may be like to be expecting. Your right everyone is different. Oh thank god there is a walmart pharmacy, Theraflu was my daytime bud and my night time companion was nightquil. New husband jealous? You betcha! Got home a week later still sick but I had a new symptom. The ever so famous soar breast. Could it of been because of the honeymoon.....Nope! Not that lucky! Could I be? We really planned to start to have a baby as soon as we got married. Whats 12days before the wedding? (da Honeymoon!) Oh, taking a test and realizing that it really looks like there is a plus showing up in the window! Yep, that's a plus! My heart was beating so fast that I was getting my first feeling of being sick to my tummy. Nerves, I wish! I could control nerves but nausea no control. 6 weeks into being very happy that i am sick and now I know why....what's this bleeding! Wait a minute call the Dr quick. Was told by the Dr that this is normal in the early stages of the 1st trimester. Needless to say that I want a real honeymoon after the our baby boy is born. Just found out Friday. Good luck and happy trimesters.

Answer 3

Hi! With my first pragnacy i felt really tired in the beginning( 4 week). Then around 6 week i got a little sick to my tummy, my boobs were sore too. I had a little bit of spotting, but it went away around the 8th week. If your spotting gets worse or you start getting cramps along with the spotting, go to the hospital. This happend to me with my second pragnacy and i ended up having a miscarriage at 8 weeks. If your really concerned though go see your doctor, otherwise relax and try to rest as much as you can. Take care, and congradulations!

Answer 4

I'm 6 wks and at 4 wks i didnt have any more symptoms than breast tendernes and headaches, at 5 weeks i started with nauseas, the breast tenderness was still there also i was feeling sleepy and moody, and at 6 weeks is pretty much the same just the nausea got worse is 24/7 now, not nice.

Answer 5

I think it feels the same at that weeks...because its already 6 weeks when I knew that I was pregnant, so before that..I never fell anything, even nausea.
Spotting? Yeah..that makes me so scared. Thats happened on my 8 weeks pregnancy. Fortunately the baby was OK. Doctor said it because i'm too tired. So, if you get spot..just take a rest.

Answer 6

I had very sore boobies!! I thought that they were going to fall off. I could not even run them under the shower! That lasted till about a two and a half months. I didnt get sick, but I felt pretty yucky!! I just was in bad moods and felt blah all the time. I hope you havent been experiencing these things! :) Good luck

Answer 7

I didnt have spotting....I had what felt like period cramps (body changing), ALWAYS tired, sometimes moody...I had diarreah real bad up until my 10th week and I had real bad morning sickness up til 12 weeks...then the nausea went away and every once in awhile...i would just get sick...I am fifteen weeks now and I still get sick every once in awhile....thats pretty much about it. I mean when your body changes and your hormones are all outta wack...it kinda throws all your "normalcy" off balance. Good luck

Answer 8

Alot of time you don't fell anything you may not even know you are pregnant yet. For some people the whole morning sickness thing kicks in.
Try going on pregnancyabout.com they have the whole stages mappe dout with photos I think you would enjoy it.

Answer 9

I honestly didnt even know I was pregnant at those weeks. I found out when I was 8 weeks along and even then, nothing. You will hardly notice anything at that stage.

Answer 10

well right now i am in my 5th week and ive been feeling a tight uncomfortable feeling in my stomach, usually bleeding is a sign of miscarriage, unless its at the beginning of pregnancy which is called implantation bleeding, but right now i dont think you should be bleeding. so me at 5 weeks, im just tight, uncomfortable, and tired!
