Hi Sara, first timer here too. Same for me - beyond exhausted, really tender boobs, back aches and the cramps have somewhat subsided. I'm also getting some waves of nausea and light headed here and there. I believe this is all normal but I'm with you- nervous about everything!!
Your symptoms will come and go. :) It's normal. First trimester is tough because you have days of non-stop symptoms and then you can go days without and feel great, then BAM! Lol. You may find some symptoms go completely away or don't come back until third trimester. Don't let it stress you, it takes away from the joy of the experience and stress isn't good for you or little one. ❤ Everyday is like a new adventure, honestly. I've learned after multiple pregnancies to wake up every day and just wonder what's in store for that day. Lol.
I’m a first timer too and symptoms are pretty small right now... 5w2d. I have some cramps on my right side, tender boobs, and a slight wave of nausea. Plus I can’t keep my eyes open past 8pm lol
But otherwise I feel great. I’m guessing this is my “normal”. I heard more stuff kicks in around 7-8 weeks, is that true?

Same exact thing for me. They only hurt if they get touched and my cramps are going away (thank goodness) but I’m still exhausted.

So this is normal!? I’m freaking out about every little thing that is and isn’t happening. Lol this is my first pregnancy so I’m new to all of this.
