In the beginning with all three of mine, it was nausea. It wasn't just in the mornings, but at odd times of the day. But this always went away after the first few months.Then there's abdominal cramping from the uterus changing for preparation of the baby. Also the sore breasts. Tiredness unlike a normal tiredness, more like overall exhaustion. It wasn't bad at all in the first two trimesters, but in the last one it just kind of steadily increased until I would be ready to pass out when 8:00 rolled around. I also had really bad heartburn with my first son for about a month in the last trimester. So bad that I even had a hard time drinking water. Isn't it great that babies are so wonderful, or us moms would probably never go through all that again and again! :)

First symptom was fatigue. I just couldn't figure out why I was so tired! Later I had this weird taste in my mouth, craved pimento cheese and couldn't even stand to hear the word fish.

Constantly vomiting. Seriously, right up until the night before I delivered. I became a regular at the hospital from getting dehydrated so many times. They were healthy and that's what really counts.

Well, my main symptom was that I had a human being living inside of me and occasionally doing funny things to my bladder when I was standing for long periods of time.

this is just "am i pregnant" in disguise isn't it???
