TMI Tuesday

jayandaplus

Hi all!

Starting this discussion because the grossest thing just happened. DH just squeezed a boob (because they're huge now) and something came out. It was clearish, and minuscule in amount, but freaked us both out. Anyone have insight? I'm only 17 weeks!

What's your TMI Tuesday?

@jayandaplus - That happened to me pretty early last time, it's normal. Boobs are prepping!

I have recently developed my very first hemorrhoid. I somehow escaped my entire pregnancy and childbirth without developing any (the nurses were impressed), but now I have succumb. Sigh,

Bloody buggers over here. I know nosebleeds can be common during pregnancy, but I'm having bloody buggers and snot.  

jayandaplus

@kayemjay2 Thanks, that makes me feel much better! Sorry to hear about your hemorrhoid. Do you have a treatment plan?

@clebl24 My gums like to bleed with brushing my teeth. Common, normal, but unpleasant for sure. Sorry to hear about your boogers. Hopefully it's a passing thing.

Not sure how I've overlooked it all this time, but I just plucked out a very impressive mustache growing on my upper lip and I'm sure somewhere out there is a 13 year old boy wishing for hair folicles of such magnitude.

@OmegaRose3 - I get crazy, dark hairs in weird places when pregnant, it's great. Especially the "happy trail" area when the bump gets bigger. I can't see to pluck them. I'm sure the doctor isn't phased.

As for the hemorrhoid, I have no plan in place. I guess it'll go away eventually? I'm not sure. I don't think it's all that bad.

Pregnancy is beautiful.

I'm getting this discharge again. I had it last pregnancy so bad I had to wear a liner every day. It's not terrible, but enough to make me wear a liner so I don't ruin underwear every day.....hate it so much

I have horribly itchy nipples! Anyone else?

@clebl24 Me too on getting all kinda of bloody boogers and needing to clean out my nose all the time. It's totally gross!

Me sometimes!!

Todays adventure in crazy is that I didn't poop for basically a week. So this morning I had the biggest poop ever. And I've had diarrhea-ish poops all day since. Feels like period poops so I'm totally freaking out. But obviously I am just FOS lol. 

jayandaplus

@kayemjay2 You might want to alter your diet until it goes away, high fiber. Straining can aggravate hemorrhoids, so make sure it's easy for you to go. You can also use Tucks for comfort. Here's APA's website on treatment. Hopefully it subsides quickly!

@LuckyAngie I hear ya! Discharge is the worst. A liner a day is my philosophy. (What's worse is having to change it throughout the day because there's so much.)

@ShadeofGreen816 Not anymore, lol!

@jayandaplus - Thanks for the tips! The hospital sent me home with Tucks last time for the stitches, and they were amazing. I assume they're equally great for their intended purpose!

I'm with you guys on the discharge I change it about every 4 hours just because I feel gross if I don't. So pleasant. 

diann21

This thread made me laugh so hard this afternoon. Thanks, ladies. 

@clebl24 Yes to the bloody bogies!  This morning my snot was totally pink. 

@KMD1106 Just my right one...and it's more tingly than itchy...

@kayemjay2 - I went to my OB for what I considered to be excessive rectal bleeding and was diagnosed with hemorrhoids (and my third yeast infection of this pregnancy). She prescribed HC suppositories and the relief was almost immediate - before them, I was scared every time I had to go to the bathroom. : /

LuckyAngie

OMG I'm so glad I'm not the only one with the discharge. I really felt so alone last pregnancy. And having it again is so annoying. 

sweaterboots

A couple times recently, I've had a very small vibrating sensation in my perineum. I've heard of them happening around the uterus because the baby has trapped a nerve, but this distinctly feels like a tiny bee is trapped in my perineum.  LOL. Anyone else have this or have you heard a reason?!

psherman42wwsa

Do hemorrhoids ever really go away ? I don't think mine completely has from my last delivery... Welcome to the club @kayemjay2

emilyalso

This isn't pregnancy related, but I have to share...

My husband just asked me to cut a dingleberry out of his butt hair, sooooooo I think it's safe to say the romance is gone. : |

champhe

@sweaterboots that sounds excrutiatingly annoying, I'm sorry. 
@emilyalso that was the funniest thing I've read all week. Thanks for the laugh!

Omg.... Stop.

Just kidding keep going.. What other kind of stuff goes on at your house?



Also, did you do it? 

starphish18

@emilyalso Omg! I can't even handle that statement. So funny and awful.

Omg. I just laughed so hard I farted!! I love this. 

Hansolosparka

@emilyalso that made me lol!!! 

Mine is that I have two inflamed follicles in my stretch marks on my hip. Any tips to get rid of them?

BeachMommy2B

@emilyalso omg best TMI ever!!! 

Mine is I've all the sudden started smelling "buttery" down there... it's not a foul smell but strange and buttery is the only way I can describe it.... and I feel like I can smell it throughout the day so I'm self conscious that others can smell it too... I may have to ask OB about it next visit... 

Louise_Belcher

OMG @emilyalso you won! (or maybe lost depending on how you think about it) Just had to hold myself to try to prevent peeing my pjs from laughing!

MrsFox2008

@emilyalso I laughed so hard I almost cried!!! Greatest thing I've heard all day hahaha! 

Does anyone else feel like they have BO at the end of the day? I've noticed a strong underarm smell the last few days... ew

inomniaparatus2

@MrsFox2008 yes! The last few days I feel like my deodorant isn't working or something 

Also, last night I was so bloated and uncomfortable that later on I started farting and it felt so good to deflate. For awhile I blamed it on the dog then eventually owned it and DH was weirded out how proud of them I was. 

sweaterboots

@SWE2 I wish I could toot for a solid minute. Every time I do it's so teeny and just unfair! I feel like a Macy's parade float!!

clebl24

@sweaterboots I'm just the opposite.  I'm having painful gas.  I'll get a sharp pain and almost immediately pass gas and it goes away. 

emilyalso

@lrwardrop and others - NO, I DIDN'T DO IT! He was genuinely surprised/hurt that I wouldn't 'help' him, but we are NOT to that level.

@emilyalso literally LOL'd... twice. I agree with @nda_roxybabe, best TMI to date!

rebecca517-2

Yes, the discharge is killing me and I have itchy nipples also. 

CCNellans

Lets see: 

Itchy nipples - check 
Discharge - check 
Threw up this morning b/c poor DS wet himself and I couldn't handle the smell. I can hardly brush my teeth without gagging like crazy. 

Everyone keeps saying "oh it's a girl then!" because DS was so easy... Argh. I would like another boy please!

softsoprano

My nipples are soo tender they hurt when they get hard 

LuckyAngie

@emilyalso - I laughed so hard I started choking!! Haha

redheeler

@CCNellans I had no morning sickness with DS or really even noticed I was pregnant till 3rd Tri, this time, so much MS, and I feel awful all the time, guess what, another boy! 

pshaortao

I think this one wins more than dingleberries...

@pshaortao Wow...just wow. Now that's just...special. LOL

@emilyalso if it makes you feel better I had to wipe DH's hairy ass once because he got so drunk that he was spewing from both ends and clearly needed some help. I like to remind him of it whenever he says I never do any favors for him.

ShadeofGreen816

OMG @pshaortao that is... wow. How did you come across that one? I feel like the comments on that really let me down. haha

@OmegaRose3 thats a great thing to hold over him!! I would use it all the time!

I love this thread. I forgot to read these yesterday, but y'all make the awful pregnancy things a little more bearable because of all the humor. I agree with so many, so I won't tag, but I've been feeling like I can smell myself too and have wondered if anyone else can but my dh is fast to tell me if I smell funny and hasn't mentioned it so hopefully not. Also, pretty sure I have a hemorrhoid too. Never had one before but it is very uncomfortable to go to the bathroom... I don't feel it any other time, is that how it usually is?? Not sure if I just tore from being constipated or if it's really a hemorrhoid. And, @emilyalso thanks for sharing. I found that hysterical and told my dh about it- we had a good laugh. Glad you didn't actually do it
