Default Hello All

Hello all! I am new to the forum and would like some answers to some questions if at all possible.
I am 20 years old, married for 2 years to the love of my life. We have been trying to conceive for a while now, and it has finally happened.
I haven't been feeling well for a week or so and decided that maybe there was a possibility we were pregnant. I took a test and it came back positive, but then I though maybe it was wrong, and so I took 5 more, and they also came back all positive. haha! I told my husband and we are so excited. I was just wondering what some of the most common symptoms are throughout the first 6-12 weeks of pregnancy ?
I have experienced diarrhea for the last couple days, I don't know if it's just nerves or if it's hormones. I've felt slightly nauseated but at this point I feel that portion is under control. Is there anything in particular that I need to watch for, or that I need to start doing? When should I make an appt with my ob?
Thanks!

Congrats!! My main symptom other than nausea was extreme fatigue. It took everything I had just to stand up! Also at about 7 weeks, I had some spotting that could have been just implantation bleeding but then I passed a clot so I went to the Dr. I wound up having low progesterone levels which could have led to miscarriage, so they gave me some progesterone capsules and that turned out fine. Call the Dr as soon as possible to make your first appt. so you can get on a regular schedule. Good Luck!
