Body Temperature?

In the early stages of pregnancy how have people felt temperature wise? I have to put the portable heater on and then five minutes later im too hot so i turn it off and then moments later im so cold i have to turn the heater back on again! Nightmare! Is this common?

Answers:
Yep! Your thermostat is confused! Quite a common thing for a lot of us.
Make sure you eat little and often, that can help keep you more constant.
It's common. Hormonal changes happen during pregnancy and also menopause.

Since you're preg, I guess your not that old! ;)
I never noticed that but I was very emotional

When I was pregnant with my premie ---Morris the cat wouldn't eat his cat food so I would BAWL

Hormones do some crazy things to you....so it is possible
Yes I am nearly 5 weeks and for the past week I have had really bad hot flushes then feeling really cold! It is frustrating and also my feet are like ice when normally i am a warm creature! It is hormones and I love it in a way cos you know you baby is strong. Good luck
its normal
It's very common. My electric bill has doubled this month because of it. It reminds me a lot of how menopausal women describe hot flashes. It's all hormonal. Congratulations soon to be mommy!
Sometimes im hot, sometimes im cold (im 6 months pregnant now, btw) so i guess it depends son if you are in or out, what your wearing and pregnancy does generally increse your basal temperature.
I was SOOOO hot all the time in the first trimester, now Im in my second, and things are GREAT! No more problems at all! give it some time.Good luck! and congrats!
Definitely common. I'm now 9months pregnant (he's 2 days overdue!) so had to cope through the summer which was a nightmare. All I could do was leave the window wide open at night, and spray myself with water all the time. Oh, and drink lots. =)
Unfortunalty yes! I was like this during all of my pregnancy and it annoyed the hell out of both me and my partner. Try putting a damp flannel on both of your wrists (and ankles if your really hot). I tried this and I slept alot better and found that I feel alseep alot quicker. I also found it alot nicer if i slept with a sheet rather than a quilt. Hope this helps! Good luck x x
That's hormones for you!!

see your doctor if you are not sure.
