Anyone else just generally feeling crappy?

Hello all,

This past weekend was a hard one for me. I generally felt pretty crappy all weekend, had a bit of a dull headache. Today I just generally don't feel the greatest. I still have a bit of a dull headache and feel run down and tired.

On Friday I was in the hospital because I got an aura migraine out of the blue and my OB sent me in for monitoring. They took blood and urine and said everything was fine. And that I don't have preeclampsia.

Today I read another woman's account of her having HELLP syndrome. I stupidly looked up the symptoms and one of them was a general feeling of being unwell and nausea. Now I don't know if I'm nauseous or just worried about it.

Do you think I should be worried? Or is this general crappy feeling Normal?

  • Only your doctor will be able to tell you for sure but I think 90% of women generally feel pretty crappy at some point during the last trimester. If your concerned best to call your doctor for reassurance. Hope you feel better.

  • Yeah I think it just comes with the territory. If the OB checked your levels, you should be fine... of course if it soesnt get better, call again.

    For me, I feel like I can't get enough oxygen even when sitting at my desk. I called the doctor this morning and they said it's probably just the baby pushing up into my rib cage, but this is horrible. Just a few more weeks though!
  • Oh yes I'm miserable right now.

    Feeling pretty miserable today. I have bad and better days. Im super tired, nauseous, still vomiting several days a week, and just discontent. I'm rarely feeling good lately.

    I had the breathing issues with DD1. I haven't this time around. I know it sucks :(
    Hang in there, mommas!
  • I wake up pretty often these days feeling like I have a hangover.. without the fun of drinking :(
  • I don't have trouble with headaches but I have felt very blah in the past couple weeks. Almost like a boredom awaiting for our baby. And if I have a day off and I sit on the sofa for even a minute...I won't get up!! Lol. So I have to keep telling myself "a body in motion stays in motion". Staying active has definitely helped my mood.
  • Yes I feel like blah. Just waiting for baby at this point.
  • I think I overdid it this weekend. Saturday I worked from 5 am to 1, then rushed home and scrubbed my filthy house, made picnic food, and hosted a fourth of July party that ran from 4 to about midnight. I was so tired and my feet hurt sooo bad! Sunday I went tol visit family at a local campground... tried to rest but it still wore me out. Today I woke up exhausted, achy and slightly dizzy and nauseous. Had a dr appt and everything looked good, so after running errands I came home and watched Netflix for three hours. I think I earned the down time.. Feeling better this evening! :-) , so yeah.... third trimester is kicking my butt, I feel blah more days than not now :(
  • Yes! I can't hardly sleep, I feel like I can't get enough oxygen, and I get a stomach ache after eating. I have some better days here and there, but pretty uncomfortable over all lately.
  • Yep, I generally feel pretty crappy... Tired, bloated, insomnia, sore hips, grumpy, irritable with DD, can't poop, can't eat, heartburn, etc etc etc etc
  • Oh yeah. Crapsville this past week! Sore belly, headaches, just feeling like junk in general. So so tired and either can't poop for days or diarrhea! Woo hoo! I then let my hubs talk me into tent camping in the woods all weekend. Nottttt the smartest idea. It's almost done and we get to meet our little babes! I just try and focus on the good parts, like watching him dance around like a madman across my belly.
  • The only part I'm enjoying right now is feeling baby move. I'm so tired all the time, heartburn is kicking my butt (and most of the time I can't take antacids because I just took my iron), and just general anxiety over my mom getting here before the baby! I'm counting on her to help me get the nursery ready. Oh, and DH isn't too much help this week, as he is stressing out over taking his medical boards on Friday. I'm just kind of hoping I don't have to work this weekend so we can relax together a bit.
  • Sleeping at this point is pretty nonexistent. So that crappy feeling lasts for the most of the day!
  • Yep not the best of days right now. Sore as heck, fatigue, can't concentrate, watching every morsel I put in my mouth bc of a GD scare. Brooooooooo I jus want a beach!
