Feeling down is completely normal right after having a baby. Your hormones are all out of whack and trying to get back to normal. Don't worry, it should go away in a week or two. If you find it lasting longer than that i would consult your doctor as it may be PPD. Good luck and I'm sure everything will be just fine in a week or 2

Yes. You're normal! Just wait. It gets better. Pretty soon your mood swings will get really bad. I yelled at my boyfriend and "moved out" for 2 days at a time (almost every weekend). Why? No idea. I didn't know at the time either! Your hormones are going to get interesting. Frequent urination is a sign of early pregnancy. It'll go away until your about 7 or 8 months. I felt like fainting for a few days, so yes, it'll mess with your head. I was the same way as far as smells went. I worked in a bar and could smell the beer. I was running to the bathroom every 30 minutes. Not to mention we served pizza. That one nearly killed me! I wanted to eat it, but every time I did it came back up! Everything you're feeling is completely normal!

Yes everything you are feeling is totally normal. The first trimester you feel a lot of PMS "type" symptoms (the fatigue, bloating..things like that) The frequent urination didn't really start for me until my third trimester, when the baby is bigger. To me, frequent urination is every 10 mins or so, which I what I am experiencing right now (I'm due in 1 month and 15 days, not that I'm counting or anything hahah)..Stay positive, you get the whole second trimester to glow..hope this helps!! Good luck

Yes, all VERY normal. Congrats on everything! I am 37 weeks along as of today, and have only three weeks left. In a way the nine months goes kind of fast THANK GOD that is until the last month which seems like an etnerity.
However, watch your food intake. You want to eat as healthy as possible, but try not to gain too much weight in the first trimester because the baby doesn't need much extra just yet.

Yep all normal. Some symptoms will go away, some will change and others will develop. Our bodies do the strangest things when we are hormonal. Congratulations what a special time in your life.
Get the book What To Expect When You Are Expecting. It is an awesome resource and is pretty easy to read!!

Yes! I'm 8 weeks along too. My daughter's name is Jayden!!!
:-)
We have the same due date!
Yes, that's pretty frequent urination. I was like that at first, but now it's calmed down.
This will be my second one, and I'm still breastfeeding my first baby, so they haven't gotten sore or changed at all. I'm sooooo tired all the time, too. Yes, your sense of smell immediately gets heightened.
Now, just wait for the rest of the fun stuff: I had nosebleeds, round ligament pains, sciatica, restless leg syndrome, and then I had the dreaded back labor, and finally, my baby broke my tailbone coming out! But, it was all worth it!!!
Hang in there!

All is Normal!! Your senses are heightened and you are more sensitive when you are preg. Your kidneys are working overtime because of all the extra blood and fluids your body needs to make this baby which means your bladder is going to fill more oftet and more quickly. As far as the itchy Breasts your skin is stretching, try using tummy butter this will help!!!
Good Luck!!

Totally normal. You will have more energy and feel better in your second trimester, then get tired again and pe like crazy in the third trimester when the baby is bigger and sitting on your bladder.
Congratulations!!

Well your hormones went nuts for a while there and now you are stablizing off so yes it is normal. As long as you still "feel" pregnant then you are ok.

Yes, and alot of your "symptoms" are more prevalent during the first trimester. You are as normal as a pregnant woman can be considered to be! :)
