New week, new symptoms! As mentioned isast week's thread I've been a bit constipated. Just 3 days, but didn't like it! Two trips to the bathroom today and finally feeling better. Other than that still feeling good!
Really intense itching on my neck and shoulder. It's not constant, but it suddenly hits me and I want to scratch. No sign of a rash or bite. Also wore a brace on my hand last night and it did not go numb!
I’m feeling better this week! I’ve been on meds for hg and have eaten the last two days med free and kept food down! Still sleepy and low energy @lindsayleigh1989 when my boobs get pushed on by DS (toddler life) it hurts so much!
@lindsayleigh1989 my H keeps thinking it’s an okay thing to mess with my nips and I swear if he can’t lesrn to be gentle then.. I don’t even know what I’ll do.. but it won’t be pretty!
heartburn is getting irritating. Middle of the night Zantac is not my favorite thing to do.
Been a bit absent lately - interneting just hasn't made it into my daily life recently. I've been feeling pretty good. One of my arms weirdly goes numb almost every night, no matter which position I'm in. Also, I'm finally having what I consider to be cravings - and it's for milk. I'm drinking milk, drinking chocolate milk, eating cereal like a fiend. It's just SO freaking good! LOL.
@DynamiteTrujillo I’ve been drinking tons of milk too! We used to buy half a gallon and now I make sure we always have a gallon and plenty of cereal at the ready
@DynamiteTrujillo welcome back! Someone else in the symptoms thread was mentioning numb arms while sleeping. Dairy is LIFE. I also want milk and cheese all the time and Cheerios are high on the list of the cereal craving!
I pretty much have to have a bowl of cereal every day when I get off work. I've been going through milk and cereal boxes more than I ever have in my life.

Anyone else having a horrible case of pregnancy brain? Today, I sideswiped a garbage like 2 minutes from my house. Ended up losing my passenger side mirror. There was no reasoning. I just hit it! I had no reaction either, didn't slam on the brakes or swerve. I called the doc, just in case my seatbelt tightened, but since I didn't brake hard and it wasn't a big accident they said not to worry. LO has been kicking away, anyways, so that makes me feel good...but *face palm* for a stupid accident!
@julybabybear omg! I'm sorry about that! I definitely have prego brain today. Went to the doctor for my checkup and they told me give a sample and I totally went and peed in the toilet! Had to ask for some water and I felt like such an idiot!
@kissableviv LOL better than the time they asked me to leave a sample and I thought I had to fill the cup because they didn't say...so I forced a fill. The lady came in and was like, "We only need a drop of pee by the way..." My husband was rolling with laughter. Haven't lived that one down yet!
@julybabybear Your mirror story is totally something I would do if I had a car! Hope it’s not too big a pain to fix!
My brain and attention span are on hiatus today. I lost my house keys and was late to work (they were in my purse!), then missed my subway stop (made me even more late), then got off on wrong elevator floor!! I give up.
@julybabybear I so feel you! I backed in to our garage door last week. I got it back on the track and tried to get the dent out enough haha so far dh hasnt noticed!
@julybabybear +1 for pregnancy brain! Seems out of control today! Hopefully tomorrow will be better

I feel freakishly absent. My back & hips are super sore. My breasts are 3xs the size they were last month. Suddenly I feel like I'm in puberty all over again with this acne. My nausea has returned with a vengeance. Insomnia is new the last 3 days. On the plus side I get lots done around the house.
@ashbub714 I, honestly, have no clue what the pee is for! They never tell me anything about it. LOL!
@pretzellover@lindsayleigh1989@rachelsogo Thank goodness I drive a total beater! I think the mirror is $50 to replace...not great, but not as bad as it could be! I definitely couldn't hide it from DH, though. Now he can stop asking me why I'm scared to drive his fancy shmancy new car!
@ashbub714@julybabybear they’re testing your urine for protein and stuff like that to make sure you’re not showing signs of preeclampsia.
@hillbillywife thank you! I’ve always wondered about that. At my OBGYN office they just have all pregnant women pee in cups and leave it in the bathroom with their names on the cups so I wondered even before I was pregnant lol
I've been having a lot of light headedness/dizziness. I'm 21 weeks. I talked to the doctor about it and they are going to go ahead and have me come in just to do some blood work. Anyone know exactly what they could be looking for?
@julybabybear I broke my passenger side mirror when I was pregnant with DS, like a month after I bought it lol. I just managed to crack the back side thankfully- I never ended up fixing it and when my car was totaled they assumed it happened during the accident.. win win lol.
Sore hips. Sore back. Sore shins? I ordered a maternity belt. I don’t remember being this uncomfortable so early with DS. I hope the belt helps, I can’t do this for 4 more months!
I'm getting more tired and hungry again but the new one is pressure and pain in my vagina. WTF is that about?! I don't remember this from last time, it's freaky.
@wildtot Using the squatty potty helped me with that uncomfortable poop pain under my belly. I do the same with my belly though when at work since there is no squatty potty.
My hands have been getting numb every night too and I have been worried about it. I keep waking through the night because of it. But it looks like others are having the issue here. My forearm on one side even has a bunch of knots in the muscle. Painful.
@chaser61 carpal tunnel can be pretty common in pregnancy I have definitely been having some nerves getting pinched in my shoulders and arms resulting in numb hands at night
@lindsayleigh1989 I just googled carpal tunnel and was surprised to see it gets worse overnight. I thought you get that while typing or writing. Is there no end to pregnancy symptoms?! Thanks.
The mood swings have REALLY picked up lately. I'm not a super emotional person, I've for the most part learned to tone the way I feel about things down. But lately I just can't hide it! I'm so ragey!

Can't relate to you guys on the milk cravings but I'll happily eat a cheeseburger a day.
I feel great otherwise. I have heartburn but only when I eat like trash....at least it's forcing me to make healthy choices
