Car jerks ahead on first start of the day each day,but seems ok after that.

What car? A time-traveling Delorian?

run the fault code
it could be a problem immobilizer system , fob key battery

Make sure the power steering fluid level is at the appropriate level.
Also, if you haven't changed the fluid according to the manual, it may be time. Let the mechanic know your observation before changing the fluid.

Engine is missfiring, bad spark plug or ignition coil
let me know how you get on

check the spark plugs and leads you may find that water has got in there or worst case oil. also check the leads/dispack for any damage or cracks/splits.

your problem must be your connection of the wire try to fix them all.

It sounds like its a coilpack. Its hard to say whick one, but it can have hot fire running slow. Then when the demand go's up and running faster it fails. So it might be a little expensive but I would go ahead and replace all of em. Prob lesss than 100 tho.

It does it more uphill because the engine needs more fuel. Its starving. How about replacing the fuel filter.

there is no air folw meter on a honda civic and it looks like the problem you have is your wires the long boots are cracked

Check your wires, plugs and coils. I think it is an ignition problem myself. Something is breaking down under a load. My guess would be a bad coil or wire, the hard starting could be a symtem of this also, As I first read your description I was thinking maybe a leaking fuel injector or faulty fuel injector, but I believe it is in the ignition system. I hope this Helps! Merry Christmas!
