I feel pretty good! But I'm just 27 weeks tomorrow. I'm a bit behind everyone. Baby is breech so I have a lot of weird pressure. And my CM seems to have lessened a bit which is fabulous.
Sleeping, ugh. No position is comfortable, and by the time I finally fall asleep, it's time to get up and pee. Idk how I'm going to function when I go back to work in 2 weeks.
The hemorrhoids are killing me. I've got the tucks (witch hazel) and prepH going on at all times. I'm hoping it gets better as the week goes on. I want to cry they hurt so much.
@ignoscemihi I'm right there with you. I can still get comfy laying down on my side but I feel like even those days are limited. Soon there won't be any possible way to get comfortable!
@Piperella +1 Hemorrhoids. They are showing up on their own now because of all the pressure from the babe, not just after I use the bathroom anymore. I've been dreading this. Witch hazel and PrepH aren't cutting it anymore either, it's miserable.
I'm terrified of hemorrhoids. I'm on an iron supplement so it's not helping the pregnancy constipation. Everytime I have to poop I silently pray that I don't get a hemorrhoid trying to push it out. TMI - sorry, y'all.

I just had to do the same pee walk that my MIL does when she waits to long to pee. I was seriously afraid I wans't going to make it to the bathroom without pee running down my leg
Peeing all the time is driving me nuts, seriously leave the bathroom and returned to my desk at work and feel like I am going to pee myself.
Oh the sleeping is getting miserable, tossing and turning all night unable to get comfortable. Leg cramps like crazy my whole body aches this morning and I am so tired.
32 weeks today and I have so much pressure. I have a non-stress test at the hospital at 3 so I'm going to mention it. I know the ultrasound tech said the little guy moved down but this pressure is the most I've ever felt.
Yes to the peeing and sleeplessness. Although this weekend was a fluke
and according to my FitBit I got 8+ hours both Friday night and Saturday
night. Last night was back to around 6 hours though.

Still this near-constant beating/thumping in my left ear. It's driving.me.insane. I know it's not uncommon, but so super annoying. Also lots of hip pain when I lie down.

This kid just keeps rolling around in my right hip bone. I haven't had an ultrasound since my anatomy scan, so I have no idea what body part it is. But, it's starting to get really sore over there! I would like for him to roll into the middle, or even my left side just for a break.
Peeing 1M times a day.
Just feeling heavy, in general. And, I'm only 28w3d.
It feels like I pulled a muscle in my groin, except that the pain comes and goes. Maybe baby is laying on a nerve? Or maybe it's SPD? I don't know but I want it to go away.
Hip pain all the way, I think I now switch sleeping sides every half hour or so, which is a difficult task in itself, I feel like a turtle on it's back
Anyone else's morning sickness return? I'm queasy all day on and off like in first tri and I keep getting waves of aversions. Just the thought of a smell (I swear I don't actually smell anything, it's just in my head) makes me nauseous.
I feel like I look a lot more red than usual. Not just on my face but arms, legs and feet too. Kind of like I have a slight sunburn but I don't. Anyone else? I've never heard of it.
Sleeping sucks. Last night I think I got 2-3 hours. Struggling to breath as baby is so high. This pregnancy is so different than the last. I was so comfortable and happy in the third tri last time. This time I am miserable

I get a pink tint, I'm guessing from being flushed from the extra body heat and blood flow? I'm pasty white so it shows on me big time.
I feel super nauseous and like I'm getting diarrhea... it's probably just because I'm upset, buy I feel miserable and need to complain somewhere
So it seems like I now have an aversion to textures - do you know how hard it is going to eat?? It seems like anything on the softer side I gag on. We ordered pizza last night and I was so excited, had 2 bites and nope! Granted if it's a soft cookie or soft sweet treat it seems fine but actual food needs to have some sort of crunch or else I can't get it down.

Yes!! Mine has returned and is worst than first tri. Sucks. I have to time eating to after I throw up as I won't be nauseous for another hour or so. Very weird, bUT doc said it's normal.
I leaked this morning for the first time. I was so confused when it happened. I was like, "did I just spill coffee on my shirt?" Except my coffee wasn't in my hand when it happened so then I squeezed my nipple to see if anything else came out and a little did, so sure enough, I have leaked.
Not sure if this is necessarily a "symptom" but definitely something new. I went out to dinner at a hibachi restaurant with a group of girls for a friend's birthday Saturday night. They seated us in a back room and it was crowded and hot. Out of nowhere I felt a full blown panic attack coming on...heart started palpitating, felt itchy, couldn't get a deep breath, and felt like the walls were closing in. I managed to keep it at bay & make it through dinner but all I could think about was how much I wanted to be at home on the couch with my dogs.
@ignoscemihi +1 for not being able to get comfortable while sitting. My tailbone is constantly sore, and without fail, around 3pm, LO crams up inside my rib cage and makes sitting impossible. And it doesn't help that by that time, I'm SO ready to be done with work anyway. I keep meaning to get a better cushion/pillow for my chair but the only thing that really helps is laying on my side.

I am so thankful for my maternity belt! LO is so low that I feel he's going to fall out at any time.
@ammetko04 I just bought one of those! My baby is up high, but I feel so much pressure low in my abdomen. The belt is amazing!
