^^^ so true. Painfully true lol

Hip pain, heartburn, swollen everything. Luckily the sciatica went away. Still have a loud heartbeat in my right ear. If I tilt my head funny I can turn it off momentarily, so that's good.

Otherwise I am thirsty all of the time and I'm up 5 times a night to pee. Wearing Depends is always a fantasy of mine but I have my dignity lol

All the heart burn.
and new this week.. Waking up 17 times a night and 7 of them being to pee. I feel like I'm busting and I go to the bathroom and it's the smallest pee ever.. Thanks baby.

*More bathroom time

This! Now that baby is head down, when I stand up he immediately puts pressure on my bladder and it's a race to the bathroom. Except when I go it's like the smallest, most unsatisfactory pee ever! It's like having a UTI except without the pain lol

I peed myself twice today. Not cool.

@kristah2 Smallest. Pees. Ever!!! haha

I'd be happy with twice a night... but we've been pushing like 5+ every night this past last week—oh, it's just awful!

I think the most incredibly satisfying part of birth (other than the baby on your chest, obvi) was not having to pee! I remember very vividly feeling like I didn't have to go and it was the most amazing feeling!!

@kristah2 I feel yeah on the waking up through out the night! I can't wait till LO is here!!

Having to pee throughout the night so many times! Causes me to never feel fully rested. 

I do realize that if that's my biggest complaint at 30 weeks I'm doing alright.

Anyone else having a weirdly runny nose? If I tilt my head down to read or write or do anything, clear, thin mucus comes pouring out.

Does anyone else have excessively dry nipples?! Like they are almost peeling they are so dry. And they are like sandpaper. Is this normal?!

Ice water gives me heartburn. I can't escape it.

Lack of symptom has me wide wake at 4am. I got up to pee and started thinking about the fact I only get up once per night and sometimes not even that lately. I
habe always done that non- pregnant so I let thinking I would be up way more and this morning apparently it is causing my mind to start racing about what ifs.  Can't win haha

Oh, yeah, I've had that for months. I've been using body butter on them twice a day and it made a difference. My sister said she started with the lanolin early when she had super dry nipples during pregnancy.

So I'm doing a 24 hour urine. Started it yesterday at 4pm. Filled up the jug by 5am. Had to give get another one. I'd kill to only have to pee once a night lol

Insane ankle/calf cramps that wake me up a few times a night 

wolfpackgrl718

It's weird, I actually have more energy than any other week during pregnancy but then I'm also more tired than ever at some points. Today is more tired. I could fall asleep sitting up today. I also have all the heartburn and all the pee breaks- all day and night. *sigh*

I woke up with alarmingly painful calf cramps last night. What's the deal?

And in shameful news, I'm wearing a pregnancy girdle because I feel like he's going to fall out otherwise...
