I remember the endless nausea, bloat, fatigue, and sore boobies from both of my pregnancies!
(full disclosure: i'm not pregnant)
But I remember just wishing away the first trimester both times. I wanted to hit the "golden" trimester so badly. So that the nausea would end as well as just feeling more secure in a viable pregnancy.
Are you in the first trimester? How are you feeling? What are your coping mechanisms during this trimester?

I've been pretty lucky in the nausea department (I'm 9.5w) and have had only a few full days of nausea. I do get super nauseous when my stomach is empty though. Yes to sore boobs everyday, uterus growing cramps, and super fatigue. I nap all the time! I have super healthy cravings (fruit & yogurt, veggies ect) and not too many food aversions yet, so fingers crossed!
I am really wanting to get back to exercising but I've been getting a bit winded lately doing pretty basic errands so hopefully I can go back to my usual walking and gym time soon!

Ugh. Let's see. I look HUGE (7w5d), I've burst into tears twice today and it's noon, and I've never been so damn fatigued in my life. That plus the almost crippling anxiety around having another loss has made this no fun at all

no real symptoms yet, just trying to wish away the time until my appointment so I can know if it's a viable pregnancy! the first tri sucks! (6w)
as for coping mechanisms, i just keep telling myself that IF it's a viable pregnancy, this is going to be my last 1st trimester ever. while it's not the most fun time, i should still try to enjoy every second of what is hopefully my last pregnancy

Thankful this pregnancy has been easier in terms of morning sickness. I had HG with both of boys. This time I am doing ok. However I do have a small hematoma causing a bleed right now.

@mrsjyw: so tricky 
I have waves of nausea but nothing horrendous. I had HG with my previous pregnancies so I'm grateful I'm not getting sick all day! I'm pretty tired but again that comes and goes. I have days where I get a lot done and others where I just want to sleep.
I'm coping by going to bed early on the hard days, avoiding gross smells and heavy foods and exercising so I feel good mentally!

Nauseous, especially when I need to eat. It was tough this morning to get out of bed, but I managed it somehow. After I dropped DD off at school, I almost threw up on the treadmill. Managed not to, so I consider that a win lol! I'm 10w2d now, so hoping the end of the nausea is in sight!

I feel good! I'm 8w2d, haven't felt nauseous at all or anything, so I feel very lucky on that front. I am STARVING all the time, though. It's crazy how quickly I get hungry again after eating!

Pretty gross. Nauseous. Anxiety that can spiral pretty quickly if I don't stay on top of it/use the skills I've developed.
Absolutely no energy. I haven't cleaned my house since before Christmas, and have a stack of fabric for a baby quilt for a friend who is due in May that I haven't even ironed for cutting yet. If I don't start soon I won't finish (I'm slow!).
And so tired. I keep falling asleep with my daughter, and sleeping for her entire nap 1.5-2 hours a day, which screws a little with my nighttime sleep. How can I be so fatigued, and yet still be wide awake in the middle of the night?

Exhausted and waves of nausea. No throwing up though. I don't have sore boobs this time (2nd pregnancy) which of course is making me anxious. I'll be glad when I reach the 2nd trimester. Hopefully i can hide it till then because my belly is already huge!

@JoJoGirl: burst into tears 3x on a preschool tour. I almost told them I was pregnant so they wouldn't think I was batshit crazy.

@Applesandbananas: Haha! When I was pregnant in July I burst into tears because a Curious George event was sold out. My LO had SO been looking forward to it and I'd spent 45 mins getting there in the car alone with her!! The lady goes "Oh my god. You're crying." I was like "wow I am so sorry... I'm pregnant...". They got me an extra ticket.
