New symptom of the week?

cornwallfoodie

So I've been feeling very smug and good the last couple of weeks....but as 8 weeks has just hit I seem to be adding a new preggo symptom a day on top of the sore boobs and tiredness!

I've thrown the sniffles into the mix today!

What's your new symptom of the week?

I'm 5 weeks and a new symptom for me is heightened sense of smell. I put on my perfume yesterday, one that I normally love, and nearly gagged. Some smells are just burning my nostrils!! Ugh.

Sore boobs...and the exshaustion continues!

Dry mouth hits me around 3:30 in the afternoon.  That's new this week and I don't remember it with my other pregnancies.  Doesn't help nausea in any way.

The nightly routine this week has been weird!

I do okay throughout the day. Some sneezing, but no coughing.

By bedtime, I'm suddenly so dry that I'm coughing those dry coughs just to scratch my throat.

The husband puts me to bed by myself because he can't fall asleep with me coughing every 2 minutes.

Then he comes to bed later.

Once asleep, I sleep okay until about 5am or so when suddenly I'm waking myself up because my nose is SO FULL that I can't hardly breathe.

So I have to get up, pee of course, blow my nose, and fall back asleep on the couch.

I've never had to get out of bed just to blow my nose before. That's just stupid!

And why is my throat only getting dry at night?!

I cramp a little when I pee to hard.  Yup!, but that happened with the last one too.

Yeah! It's like the sudden emptiness feels uncomfortable for a few minutes.

The water!!! I CANNOT get enough water! Yesterday alone over the course of the whole day I drank half a gallon of water and could have had more. Throughout the night I wake up to the feeling of full bladder and incredible thirst!

I'm irritable, I just want to be left alone but with two kids that's not possible trying to hold myself back from snapping at them since they don't deserve it its just hormones.

Bloating and gas, good God! I ate some grilled shrimp today for lunch, but apparently my body thought I ate a can of black beans. The bloating is out of control, particularly when gas strikes. Its awful, my jeans are so uncomfortable. i just wanna wear my yoga pants all.the.time!!

I have been sneezing like crazy....like 4 or 5 times a day. I told hubby I'm allergic to the baby. Lol

I've just developed morning sickness this weekend... and I was just saying a week or two ago how I wasn't experiencing any nausea. Now nothing sounds good at all.

Acne is popping up, my IBS is out of control, and I've been dozing off mid sentence in the afternoon like someone with narcolepsy.

I've replaced giant spots with dry scaly skin now!

Same here! I'm on my 3rd pregnancy, and usually the itching doesn't start this soon... But I'm waking up with scratches all over!! Time to start on the Benadryl before bed, it's the only thing that helps with the itching.

Nausea has been way worse this week (7), and I've caught myself being extra sensitive--Especially when I'm feeling hungry. I can't even throw up to feel better, I just dry heave. It's terrible, but I keep reminding myself it's worth it...
