Pregnancy is different for everyone. Some woman are miserable and sick through out their entire pregnancy, some woman have a middle ground and some are just happy go lucky the whole time. You go through a bunch of hormonal changes and can even try at the drop of a commerical. You learn alot about your body, gain weight, watch your body change and grow. Everything changes. You go through pains and aches, mood swings, temperature changes, etc... You may have extra boosts of energy or simply be tired all the time. Pregnancy is not the same for everyone.

it depends on the pregnancy
you dont feel anything until your ligaments begin to streatch or the baby starts to move
if you think you feel anything sooner than 9 weeks then its probably just gas

usually the 2nd trimester
when your uterus starts to grow
it doesnt happen that early

The round ligaments surround your uterus in your pelvis. As your uterus grows during pregnancy, the ligaments stretch and thicken to accommodate and support it. These changes can occasionally cause pain on one or both sides of your abdomen.

when your pregnant, can you sleep on your side?
or just on your back, does it strain the baby if you lay on your side?

you are supposed to sleep on your side not on your back
if you sleep on your back it cuts off circulation in one of your veins or something like that
sleeping on your left side is the most comfortable during pregnancy
but i sleep on my back and side and my babies fine
it wont strain the baby its just not recomended

your uteryus grows alot during pregnancy
8 times the normal size
you feel movemnt in your abdomen and your stomach but further along your uterus greow above youre belly button
again it depends how far along you are
you wont feel fetal movement til around 13 weeks
some women feel it a tiny bit sooner but its rare

you would not be getting a hard stomach or a dome feeling right now
do you know how small babies ar when they are growing inside of you?

by 10 weeks the baby is barely a tiny bit more than an inch long
by 12 weeks its a little over 2 inches
im telling you you do not feel anything like this so soon

breast tenderness and lower back pain is caused by pms symptoms and also your period
your on your period right? or you just came off it recently? there ya go!thats most likely why youre feeling that way!

Krystine, I don't doubt that you're feeling like things are a little off, but i think that you're looking so far into this that you're mind is playing with you-- which is easy to let happen, i know

Its good to educate yourself about this sort of thing but girlfreind is right, you're feeling these things wayyy to early and you're probably just feeling weird because of your period.

Take some deep breaths and relax until you can find out for sure.

you dont feel fetal movement until around 18 weeks..and if you havent felt anything by 21 weeks its a need to be concerned. I havent ever heard of anyone feeling movement at 12 weeks unless it was multiples.

No one can tell you the exact feeling of being pregnant, it is something you have to experience for yourself.
