HI, I am in my 12th week and I am freezing all the time! I used to get hot flashes about a month ago and now I am cold all the time. I sleep with 3 blankets, my husband has one sheet b/c he is a heater. I have not been sick once but every once in a while it feels like there is a loaf of bread in my throat. No back pain yet..but from reading everything below..it will be coming!!

11 weeks and counting. Just can't stay awake past 9 pm. Keep missing the 3rd period of hockey games!! I have always worked on 7 hours sleep, now I sleep for 10 hours every night! I seem to also get a 'stitch' feeling in my side almost every day.

I was hoping it wasn't just me. Are there others out there with this problem? Everytime i sit down for long and I get up, the tail bone of my rear hurts so bad. My ob said it's the baby putting pressure on me there.

I am 15 weeks and 2 days pregnant and the only symptons ive had is lower back pain and recently sharp stabbing pains in my stomach (kind of feels like a stitch and feels tight inside) I've read that this is normal and happens around this time because the baby is growing so fast and is stretching my insides : I've also had a bit of morning sickness between weeks 11 and 14, but only every 4th morning or so.I've started feeling pressure lower in my stomach (pelvis) when i sit down, like something is being pushed up when i sit, is this normal?? My stomach is getting really itchy too just out of the blue.

I am 11 weeks. I had upper back and left rib pain constantly for 2.5 weeks. Slowly the pain is going away, but I still have pains in my upper back and left rib every few hours. My doctor could not explain it...has anyone else experienced this pain?
