Re: Symptoms Week of 6/4
My nausea is still come and go. My appetite along with it. I can really tell when I get enough sleep.
The uncomfortableness has been increasing. If I lay on my side without support on my stomach it gets really uncomfortable. Sunday it felt like something inside me was twisted.
Baby boy is moving more and more each day. I love it. Haven't seen or felt it externally yet. DH is anxious to be able to feel him.
Restless legs when trying to sleep are driving me crazy, and my lower back feels so out of place when I lay on my back.
How are you feeling? This week I am feeling relaxin in full mode. My back just feels so lose. Every move I make I can feel cracking/just looseness. Kind of cool body is getting ready but it feels a bit strange - even the 3rd time around.
My whole freaking body hurts. I’m pretty sure that isn’t a pregnancy symptom though. (I spent all day yesterday in suboptimal seating, and only got 6hrs sleep last night.)
My appetite has suddenly gotten weird again. Not exactly food averse or nauseous; I just want to eat weird (for me) things and not much of. Although, the “not much of” seems to be accounted for by an increase in grazing...
I’m feeling baby kicking more regularly, and I don’t need to be laying quietly to feel it. (FYI - anterior placenta)
Also, my fuse is kind of short. I don’t think I’m being a raging bitch, but I am afraid there may be a “yet” after that, or maybe everyone is too polite to tell me?
ETA: I’ve also had an uptick in both uterine cramping and round ligament pain.
1) My office is moving around a lot of workstations, and I got moved late Friday. They haven’t moved my keyboard tray yet, so all the things are out of whack while trying to keep my shoulder from seizing.
2) I went to an outdoor performance of Romeo and Juliet last night, and sat in a camp chair for several hours.
Between the two, I am wishing for a good massage, and I freaking hate massages.
I'm so exhausted this week. Afternoons at work i'm really struggling to get through..
Headaches are still often, and my lower back is quite sore.
I've been trying to exercise at least 2-3 times a week as I do find it helps with the back pain.
I feel kind of down this week, I know a few ladies mentioned that last week. Maybe has something to do with my body not feeling my own and not having the energy I'm used to.
Counting down to the weekend!
Holy heartburn! It came in and took my last couple days over, can’t figure out if it is a specific food or just everything! Other than that uterine cramping and RLP are both strong. Hoping to start feeling her move more this week!
I'm having wicked heartburn too! I always had heartburn before pregnancy but this is way worse! With the antibiotics I'm on I only have a 2 hour window to take antacids (causes the antibiotics to not absorb properly) So luckily my OB gave me a script for Zantac. Just need to fill it!
I'm generally feeling larger and finding it harder to get comfortable in any position I'm in whether sitting or sleeping. My boobs have grown and are tender again. My sex drive is non existent and I feel bad for DH. I have hot flashes especially at night.

How are you feeling?
Tired. Joints and hips feel looser from relaxin. Have to sleep in runners position to have any chance of not having hip pain in the am. Yes I am seeing a chiro, have a massage this month, and and trying a yoga class this week.
Anterior placenta and I have been feeling the kid move (DH has not yet). Haven't felt much today but I have been running around crazy doing stuff so I know I am not paying as much attention. Laying down now and am feeling little movements but like like I have. Not too concerned but am trying to pay attention. Dr has previously said not to worry about frequency until about 24-26 weeks.
Feeling pretty good. I'm shocked at the amount and intensity of movement from this kid already. I know I had an anterior placenta last time, but I'd barely felt anything up to this point. This kid's already karate chopped me hard enough to startle me/take my break away multiple times. I'm scared of what he's going to feel like as he gets bigger. He might just punch his way out of there!
Heartburn is out of control these last few days! Still barfing and nauseous most days but having a few days here and there where it's not as bad so that's something.
Most nights I'm up for at least a few hours in the middle of the night for no good reason - I had this with both my other pregnancies too...I suspect it's the bodies way of preparing for the lack of sleep coming my way soon!
Thankfully I haven't had hardly any hip/back/pelvic pain yet but my midwife is convinced it's coming as baby is sitting super low so she thinks it will likely result in pelvic separation if he/she doesn't move up soon.
I'm pretty sure I feel baby move when I'm laying away in the middle of the night but I'm really not sure - it's definitely not as strong/prominent as I remember it being with my other two (and by now with both of them I was feeling them a lot more) so I suspect I may have an anterior placenta - will find out at my u/s in a week!
i feel great for the most part. My only symptoms are some general discomfort around my abdomen and sciatic-like hip pain that seems to come and go by the day. Sometimes I catch myself leaning forward a bit and get kicked. I think she’s telling me I’m crushing her. Oops poor thing. Kicks are generally more consistant. 8 days ago was he first time I was sure I felt a kick and my husband also felt it with his hand. Ever since they’re happening throughout the day everyday. Love being able to feel confirmation that she is in there and doing well.
Is it possible to feel stretched? The constant pulling feeling of my belly is really getting to me this week. It’s almost kind of sore.
I’m feeling baby girl move and kick a ton! The increase in feeling her has gone up significantly in the last week alone. DH has felt her kick a few times, too.
I know part of it is that I haven’t found the right person, but my previous experiences don’t lead me to want to find the right person.
Tired, food averse for everything the majority of the time. Then ravenous when I do feel like eating, fun. Thirsty constantly but nauseous when I drink water. So I'm drinking not good things.
I feel ok though, so I can't really complain.
Just had sex and my husband said, “what’s that?” afterwards.
My nipple leaked on his fingers.
So, that’s a thing that just happened.
I could +1 so many things!!
+1 to feeling stretched that's the best description of the feeling in my tummy area!
+1 to feeling down lately, just not feeling my full self, not where I wanted to be at this point in life (don't get me wrong I'm so so grateful to be having these Babies and all the help were receiving! I just really thought we'd be in our own home, doing it on our own not in my parents basement..) I'm getting through it though.
Some acid reflux after I eat or drink and go any slight variation of horizontal.
On the positive side I'm feeling baby bears moving all over the place in there! Mostly at night when I'm ready to go to sleep of course. It makes it feel so real when I can grab DHs hand at any random moment and have him feel them moving or kicking! I can't wait for when we're further along and cab see defined movements!
Feeling like a raging lunatic in addition to still having the occasional bout of nausea and terrible aches and pains. Kids will be out for the summer soon. It will be a rough one for me if I still feel like this. I'm beginning to feel like I might be having pelvic separation...again. That was some excruciating pain and left me incapable of doing the most basic of things in my last pregnancy. Baby is moving and kicking up a storm. If I'm honest, I never really enjoyed this part of pregnancy and basically just want my baby lol.
ETA heartburn. Terrible terrible heartburn.
Also, I feel like I have to pee 24/7. Anytime I'm standing or walking it's like oh hey, I have to pee even though I literally just peed. Baby is really low so not surprising. Last night we were watching TV and she kept kicking or moving and everytime she moved my bladder definitely felt it.

to that point).
+ 1 to the heartburn club. I’ve had it since day one but it’s getting exponentially worse. I can taste it
+1 to the frequent pee-er club
sex drive is slowky and sadly fading away...
I housed a frozen pizza tonight and had terrible heartburn after. I hadn't had heartburn since really early in the pregnancy, so that was a nice surprise...butttt now I have better motivation to make good food choices.
Lower back pain is constant and intense on my left side. It only stops when I slouch with terrible posture on the couch and lean against a small firm pillow. But then that makes my neck hurt. However, the neck pain is not as bad as the back pain.
