Re: Weekly Symptoms 4/10
Holy RLP. It struck me so suddenly last night and I had to walk hunched over. It was crazy. I'm so glad I knew what it was, otherwise I would have freaked out.
Also, this vaginal pressure that I've been experiencing is crazy, just glad I have an appointment today to get that looked at. Part of me is a little freaked out because they told me with twins there is a chance my cervix will shorten, so I just want to make sure it's none of that causing the issue.
Dizziness when I stand too quickly and I've started getting leg cramps. All fairly normal, and nothing else really worrying me right now, so I guess that's all good!
Lower back pain. Good god the lower back pain. I slept with a pillow between my legs last night and that helped a little because it's not as bad today but the last few days it hurt to stand up straight!
I definitely spoke too soon last week about the awful jawline acne finally going away because it's back with a vengeance.
Also still dealing with being tired most of the time, fairly constant headaches, and sore boobs 4lyfe.

Um..i think i felt movement last night. Kind of confused by it, but I think it was.
I had stopped taking my calcium vitamins and my heart burn had gotten really bad, even waking me at night. Decided to take one last night and I'm already feeling less heartburn.
I really wish thus acne would cool it. It's not all over, but it just won't go away!! Hopefully salt water and sun from yesterday helps out.
Otherwise I'm doing pretty good. Headaches come and go when I slack on my water.

- constantly on the verge of heartburn, even taking Prilosec at night
- the abdominal cramping/RLP, whatever it is, is bad
- headaches
- nausea every morning (Still! Ugh)
- can't get comfortable to sleep, so I'm tired alllll the time
-extremely cranky the past couple of days.
Movement and kicks are becoming more consistent
Cramping here and there.
When I work out the muscles in my upper inner thighs hurt and the next day it feels like someone kicked me in the vagina but I do not want to stop working out.
Bloody sore gums.
HUNGRY all the time!!!
Boobs go from being sore to feeling like they are on fire.
So basically the doc rolled her eyes at me, figuratively, not literally. She said because it's second pregnancy, and I'm carrying twins that every symptom could be exasperated. So I felt silly being in there. I got an ultrasound and both babies are little wiggle worms and their hearts are thumping away. And I got the dreaded cervix check and everything looks great.
So it was nice to get the peace of mind, but I still feel so silly for being so worried.
I am always winded! I walk up the stairs and I am dying. Anyone else feel this way? Still nauseous all the time. Looks like it may be this way until the end. Hopefully not.
Also adding: ALL the heartburn.
ETA: I was behind a woman who is more pregnant than we are, and the cashier was telling me she still runs 4 miles. Nooope.
Otherwise, definitely lower back pain, headaches, heartburn, and so much exhaustion. Like so many of you, I can walk very short distances and be almost out of breath. Ugh. Haha it's almost ridiculous... I walked across my living room the other day and needed to sit. My living room isn't that big. Oh and acne. Jeez, if this could stop, that would be nice!
Feel thirsty in a way I had never felt pre-p. I actually feel like drinking water! What a novelty lol
@margareth Oh the thirst! I have never been so thirsty as the first few weeks I breastfed, holy crap, I'd wake up and down a bottle to two bottles of water with every feeding, and still be thirsty!! It was insane.

I thought it was hilarious! It was very clear what he was grabbing at. Our poor tech was trying to get a picture of his hands, but opted to not so they weren't all with a shot of his manhood.

Most of those symptoms have lessened and now I have more lower abdominal pressure than anything. I'm sure things are especially amplified with twins!
Acne is still going strong unfortunately. I've been having these crazy muscle spasms in my stomach when I make sudden movements and they make me jerk/yelp in surprise. It really scares SO every time it happens. I pee just about every hour lol.
I've also been feeling a little depressed. I'm so happy to be having a son but I feel kind of alone. I live away from my family (moved away to be with SO) and the only people I really interact with is him, his family/friends and my coworkers. I miss being close to my sister because she really helped me through my last pregnancy from beginning to end. I still see her once a month but it isn't the same as living 5 minutes away from her. And of course I miss all of my hometown friends. I just don't know if my depression is just general sadness or something to be concerned about. I plan on talking to my OB about it at my next appointment.
ETA: I did have one other US that lasted 2 seconds and I didn't see the screen. Dr forgot to put my name in the machine so no pics would print. I just want to see the little guy!
