I haven't seen one of these in a while, so I'll just leave this here.

I have been awake since midnight with tummy cramps. The bubble guts kind. Except I can't go so I'm just suffering. I've tried showers and a bath to get things moving and nothing. I can't wait to have normal bodily functions again.

Google is not your friend in this case. Everything is a sign of labor. Lol!

I know, I know. That's why I'm self-diagnosing like we discussed. Haha. @sjo_thetwins

The "good" thing about testing positive for Strep B, is the antibiotics I'm on gives me diarrhea so I am not constipated!

I fart all night long while I'm sleeping. I only know because DH tells me so, and the smell lingers (when I wake up 1000 times to pee)

speaking of farting... I don't know why they are soooo stinky... now besides my bed there is always a bottle of tums and my febreeze can.

The constipation is awful, to the point that when I eventually do poo, the smell makes my eyes water.

Um, I think I have varicose veins on my vulva.  <runs in shame>

@simcal18 I have one too, I think ... it's a giant vein invading my nether region ... and today I think I hurt myself trying to poop, I made my youngest cry because he kept bugging for a bath and I was like do you know how hard it is for mommy to go potty ! He started crying and it broke my heart, damn constipation!

My farts- which usually never smell- smell like rotten eggs or like so much sulfer, it's even making me gag. I feel bad but I cannot hold them in!

My water is leaking again. I stand up too quick from sitting and leak. Not a lot, just a little. Doctors are watching it carefully. Just what I need when I already have an insane amount of discharge.

I missed this on TuesdaY. Hopefully you won't mind my two cents.  I either have constipation or diahea with sharts. There  is no in between. who knew pregnancy could be so gross.

I have given this some thought, and I really think it is b/c we are all constipates and poop stays in there so long, it smells like rotten, dying animals.....UGH

Loose/diarrhea stools
I went to go buy my SO food from TB and had to literally run out of line get in my car and drive 4mins home because i was about to poop myself. gross.

Schell2013

My boob sweat stinks. It's not like I can use pit stick for it... So what do you do?!?!

Morningstar80

@daisy19782011 I completely agree. It's totally the constipation backup. I had such terrible i-haven't-gone-in-a-week farts that I almost poisoned my DH multiple times. I finally went yesterday and today and I felt like crying with joy.

My poos are so big that they calm my fears about childbirth. Seriously, these bad boys must weigh 2-3 lbs.

Maybe try something like a baby wipe to clean up the area? From what I've heard, sweat doesn't have an odor, it's the bacteria on our skin that makes things smell bad... So maybe it's just that things aren't getting dry quick enough and the bacteria is able to form. I don't know lol... Just thinking out loud here about what I'd try lol

@Schell2013 I actually do put deodorant under and in between my boobs. It helps! The other thing you can use is baby powder or Gold Bond powder. Gold Bond makes a spray powder that is a little less messy. 

mrszoess

yeah I deodorant my boobs, thighs, where my thighs meet my body, the backs of my knees...

kmtz89

I poop every morning but recently I've still been having TERRIBLE night farts. Like DH told me I woke him up with a stinky fart last night. 

jbal918

@kmolleltz same boat so I just told my husband he's mad I can blow him out of the water right now lol

Schell2013

I am so going to look for a "healthy" brand of pit stick for under the boobs. 

SpaceBurger

@Schell2013 Meow Meow Tweet has a good cream deoderant that works. The stick doesn't work very well, but the cream is great. And I'm a sweaty beast.

Schell2013

@SpaceBurger cool! Thanks for the tip!
