2nd Trimester

Weird Pregnancy Side Effects

I have noticed with this pregnancy that I have started swearing like a sailor. It is so bizarre -- I usually don't swear at all. It's like some weird pregnancy Tourette's. 

I also pride myself in in my spelling ability, but I catch myself misspelling words all the time (i.e. there, they're, their).

Weird.

  • Ha!  I am actually a pretty good speller myself, but I find that lately when I am typing I spell things phonetically.  Phone = fone.  etc  Really annoying!

  • I keep running into things with my newfound wider hips.  I should be a hockey player with all this body-checking I have going on right now!

  • I like the car horn a lot more than I used to. I am VERY quick to let people know they aggrivated me.

     Me too!!!! I wake up sneezing! I don't know if it's allergies (I've never had any before!) or maybe too much pet hair in the room..even though I clean like crazy). x_x I almsot pee on myself each time! UGH!

    My weird one: increased ear wax. 

    Ew, I know.

    ME TOO!!! Isn't it annoying? Between pregnancy and allergies, it's a wonder I can hear at all!

  • Here's another gross one...sometimes when I wake up in the morning and blow my nose, it bleeds....a lot!  It takes many tissues and at least 10 minutes to stop.  This never happened before I was pregnant. Sad

     This has happened to me too...all the time! I also constantly have a stuffy nose. I've never had alergies, but I think I'm developing them now!
