AFM, The bloat is real.

ETA: Gif fail. 

vvitchhazel

ETA: Another gif fail. Mobile hates me.

So much bloat. @vvitchhazel I can never get gifs to work either! 

I think the farigue is starting to set in. Or maybe it could just be from taking care of two babies... lol either way I've been falling alseep around 8:30-9 and sleeping til 6 if the boys let me!

Ugh from mobile I can't get anything to attach...

another one for fatigue so I'm asleep by 8-8:30, up 3-4 times during the night to pee and I have been up before 5 every day for last week.  I managed to clean entire house before DH & DS woke up this morning.

also I'm either not hungry in the least bit, or the complete opposite - like feed me everything right now. There's no in between. 

vvitchhazel

The fatigue sucks. I napped for three hours yesterday and I could barely keep my eyes open an hour after I woke up. 

And I think that nausea I was so anxious about not having is finally showing up.   

ETA: I was up 5 times to pee last night, not counting the 2 am wake up call my daughter gave us (teething). And the heartburn is constant.

I'm not naseaous until I eat. So I put off eating and it makes me feel even more nauseous. 

drablnd

So tired and the bloat is unreal. So grumpy too

Anyone else having hot flashes? Ugh I'll be totally fine then all of a sudden it's like GET THIS SWEATER OFF ME!

vvitchhazel

@kvacmak I thought I was having hot flashes last night, but I woke up and it was 67 degrees outside, so it might just be the weather!

txmomma16

Ugh the fatigue is killer. Going to bed by 830 and still not making it through the day. 

yarlk

Same here! So tired all the time and the bathroom breaks are a killer lol.

I have to say so far that the fatigued feeling with this pregnancy is a lot worse than the last! Also I feel pretty cold a lot of the times which is very unlike me. I'm usually like a furnace. 

yarlk

Heart palpatations and high heart rate, constant resting in the 90s. I wear a fitbit to keep awareness (had heart issues when i was young so a priority was placed on this). Anyone else have these symptom(s)?

failuretofly

@yarleenr my resting HR has gone up from 57-58ish to 62-63ish 

I know when I was pregnant with DS I went from resting HR of 55 up to 85 by the end.

acgonzalez22

@kvacmak These hot flashes are the worst! 

dragonette505

@yarleenr yup, my resting hr is up about 10 points and my active hr is also higher. Apparently it's normal because of increased blood supply. I def feel my heart pounding harder with exertion.
With a past heart condition I'm sure it makes you nervous... I'd  def check with your doc to make you are good and in the norm for your situation.

Anybody not having any morning sickness or nausuea yet? I've had none. The only symptom I have is acne and sore nipples and always HANGRY. 

NME44

@teacherlady-2, I've really never had morning sickness and this is my 4th pregnancy.

Yup. Same. Not nauseated but no food looks appetizing. 

king23h

I've just been experiencing achy boobs, cramping (I guess it's called round ligament pain?) and fatigue. I am SOOO tired! I'm a teacher on April break right now and I am just hoping and praying that I'm okay through the end of the school year. I haven't had any nausea or morning sickness yet, but I'm very nervous about getting it when I'm working (I don't want to alarm the kids by vomiting all the time...)

cait5413

Had my first painful sneeze of the pregnancy! Fatigue is in full force today, as is rage at DH. 

AMCsquared

Last night I had pain so extreme that I was crying. I've been having back cramping but this one was a little scary for me.

That sounds concerning. Have you talked to your doctor about it?

NME44

I'm having quite a bit of cramping today that doesn't do my anxiety very good. I'm kinda just hoping it's digestive from eating crappy at my DD's birthday party this morning 

justsuzie

@NME44 I honestly can't tell the difference between digestive cramps and uterine cramps. I wouldn't worry unless you have cramps accompanied with other bad stuff. Drink lots of water. That always helps with my stomach. Good luck and I hope you feel better. 

missbmama

Bloat... so much bloat. I do not want to be in maternity this early but NOTHING fits

mamabear0528

Sharp pains in my lady bits. It's way too early for that, right? I never had it at all with DS so I'm not sure what to make of it. With the cramping/spotting I've had on and off I'm wondering if I should be concerned. 

justsuzie

@mamabear0528 does your OB have a 24 hour help line? It's probably nothing but it always feels better for someone else to tell you that! Hope it goes away soon. By the way I called my dr's help line 3 times already because that's what it's there for. Gl 

stillclever17

Im having weird burning pain between my shoulder blades and in my chest. I think it's indigestion???

failuretofly

@stillclever17 possibly, take some tums and see if it helps!

beaandthebabes

I just want to live in my bed wrapped in blankets with a fan pointed at my face until the hot flashes/chills/constant nausea is done. I am officially the no fun wife who has gone to bed early when we have company over and a bonfire going. 

beaandthebabes

@stillclever17 Keep an eye on that. I have gallbladder issues and that is pretty much exactly how my attacks present. If it persists and tums doesn't help I recommend a glass of apple juice with a shot of apple cider vinegar. It is not very yummy but it helps massively.

vvitchhazel

Round ligament pain like whoa. It's super early for that, but if I turn or move a certain way, I definitely feel it. It's pretty unmistakable.

Mandayno

The bloating is ridiculous!!! None of my clothes fit already, and this is baby/pregnancy #1. Been having a lot of periodic cramping, some pretty strong. No spotting or bleeding, think the baby just is nestling in tight  ... EXHAUSTION,  sorry I just fell asleep writing this!

failuretofly

Well I woke up with vertigo today... so that's fun  and I made the mistake of not eating right away and the nausea snuck up on me too... I told my husband and he's like "what you never been pregnant before or what?"... 

vvitchhazel

Wearing a maternity dress today because real clothes are hard. 

missbmama

@vvitchhazel yeah I totally wore my maternity jeans today. I was hanging my head in shame until I realized how comfortable I was and how much more I could eat 

justsuzie

Dresses everyday. Loose dresses!

stillclever17

@brittabatwhite Thanks, I will. Yes with the bloating still. I'm so exhausted, I want to cry at all times.
