uncommon pregnancy symptoms? or something else?
i'm about 5 wks pregnant with my first, and i've been having some weird symptoms, i'm not sure if they're related to the pregnancy or if something else is up & maybe i should talk to my doctor…
sore throat, with slight ear ache
congestion, stuffy & runny nose
back ache, especially really low on my right side near my hip
insomnia
feel overly warm (no fever)
mild cramping very low in pelvis
slightly sore, tired muscles
i'm also having the usual symptoms, sore BBs, a bit of nausea, heartburn, things smell & taste different, exhausted (though may be partly due to my insomnia).
can anyone tell me if these symptoms are pregnancy related?
also, what are some safe things to get relief from them?
should i see my doctor asap? (i have my 1st appointment in 2 wks)
thanks!!
oh, also i have constipation & gas (sorry tmi) are these pregnancy symptoms too??
thanks again!!!
and HORRIBLE headaches, too, btw… i know those are a symptom…
yes, DEFINITELY preggers, i've had 2 BFPs since Saturday
actually the heartburn & changed sense of smell are definitely pregnancy symptoms.
yes, those things are all completely normal to feel while pregnant.
THey will ease up soon but then of course new ones come along.
if you ever have bright red bleeding or cramps like menstrual cramps then it is time to see your doctor
you can take benadryl to help you sleep and it will help with the sore throat and nose, i had those too and thats what doc. told me to take.



Yes your pregnant. Remember the baby is foreign to your body so it has to adjust. You are going to feel like crap until your fourth month. But it will be worth it. Congratulations!

You sound like you have a cold or the flu, on top of being pregnant. Some are related to your pregnancy though most sound as though you are sick honey!
You can't take much without consulting your dr. so drink lots of water and try to get some rest. When you see your dr. in two weeks, let him know you were sick, and ask if there is anything you can take if you get sick again.
Hope you feel better!

They aren't unusual symptoms to relate to pregnancy. Insomnia and sore muscles are quite common. Cramping is fairly common, especially in the first month or two of pregnancy (you can even have a little bleeding, but careful with this one.. and get it checked anyways). You can have flu like symptoms with pregnancy (that's how many woman find out that they are pregnant).
If anything concerns you, or if it is anything you would normally go to the doctor for, then go. It never hurts to check in, and it will make you feel better and relax (and it's good to stay relaxed for the baby).
Congratulations!

Yes those are symptoms to pregancy but not all of them, you see your not supposed to be getting hurtburn,and things are not supposed to smell diferent and taste at all.so i think calling the doctor was the best idea to do.
