Anybody itchy down there?? It’s driving me crazy!! I’ve never had a yeast infection so I’m wondering if it’s a pregnancy symptom of if I’m experiencing my first yeast infection.
Possibly just dry? A yeastie beastie while pregnant would be just plain rude.
@JEMN - It can be caused by increased blood flow as well (that's my problem) but you might want to mention it just in case it is a yeast infection and needs to be treated.
@JEMN , I have that, but I'm 99% sure it's because of the suppositories.
Anyone having ankle swelling? SO HUGE. I am fairly certain it's because of the progesterone, as it only ever has happened in my medicated pregnancies. But I just can't bring it down, especially because I sit most of the day. I also drink TONS of water... I don't know how to handle it.

@JEMN - It can be caused by increased blood flow as well (that's my problem) but you might want to mention it just in case it is a yeast infection and needs to be treated.
I'm having insane dreams Last night I dreamt that my sister had died. It was so real that when I woke up crying and screaming I picked up my phone to check all her social media accounts to convince myself it was fake. I'm hoping it doesn't continue this way. So far, that's it though. I had literally no symptoms with DS, but was crazy sick from BFP to about 28 weeks with DD - we'll see which way it goes this time.
@JEMN it could be a yeast infection. I’m just getting over one. My doctor says they can be common because of such drastic hormone changes. I had one around now with my first as well
Couple days shy of 8 weeks here. Barely any symptoms. Some bloating and intense hunger upon wakening in the morning. That’s about it. Very very different from both my pregnancies with my girls.
@lea-v3 Those scary dreams are the worst! I have to be careful what I read so I don't have nightmares. Unfortunately the news has been enough to keep me up lately...
@mainemama_ So glad your Dr could see you and answer your questions. Sorry you're hurting, happy to hear about that heartbeat
You guys. The phantom letdown is freaking me the f out. I just keep grabbing my boobs in a panic every time it happens. This is a stupid question, but I won’t actually leak, right??
Everyone complaining about no symptoms is welcome to trade with me. I’ll gladly take your nothing and you can have all of my glorious cruddy feels.
My first two pregnancies I had minimal nausea and was just exhausted all the time. This constant bleh feeling, exhaustion, sore boob, shitty sleep nonsense is for the birds.
I’m late to the party.. still trying to read everyone’s responses! I’m 7 weeks today. I haven’t felt nauseous (knock on wood.. didn’t have MS with DD).. but the gas pains. Holy moly! Problems going to the restroom. acne... and not the cute high school kind.. I’m talking, big girl, welcome to pregnancy kind. Mainly on cheeks, chest and shoulders. Luckily, shoulders and chest have turned into little bumps and the zit looking ones have gone down. My husband’s new game is the ‘im Not touching your nipples game’ which I accidentally bumped his arm into them and screamed. Hopefully he knows the extent of the pain and doesn’t play that game anymore TIRED ladies. Mama just wants to sleep. Oh, and yesterday, I had the weirdest cramp/pressure I’ve ever experienced... anyone ever felt pressure in their lady bits early in pregnancy. That one took me by surprise. My boobs are looking less deflated!

@BourbonBiscuits I've actually heard of leaking more than phantom letdown. One girl i know said thats how she knew she was pregnant again (leaking). Sorry, that sounds annoying and borderline painful. Hope you stay dry and it lets you alone (again with the dad jokes)
I'm almost 7 weeks and ever since the beginning I've been exhausted with sorry boobs. Not a whole lot of nausea. When I don't have nausea and exhaustion, I feel anxious something is wrong but when I have it, I complain as well... Gawsh, I can't make up my mind lol.
The one thing that is really bothering me is how dry my skin is right now. The nausea comes and goes but the itchy skin stays with me 24/7. Every since I found out, I switched to all natural organic skin care with no parabens or synthetics but my skin is fighting back hard I'm crazy itchy and I've scratched so much I know there will be scars... Sigh... I had to go back to using Aveeno, unfortunately, since Carina Organics lotion, coconut oil, jojoba oil, plant squalane and shea butter all have not worked for me... Crying with my lizard skin
My "acne" is out of control!!! Also, all I wanted to eat today was Doritos. I keep telling H, when I crave something and get my hands on it, IT'S THE BEST THAT FOOD HAS EVER TASTED EVER!
Boob juice squirting my husband in the eye will ruin that
Oh no, I can't get out of this box! Just wanted to say that my husband LOVES sex when I'm lactating, and gets milk all over the place. Maybe your husband won't mind
@Loxi you have a braver husband than I do. Mine gagged the first time. Hahah I think it made him think about the baby, which didnt elicit sexy feelings? Now I’m kind of hoping he does get a shot of bm to the eyeball, just to see the look on his unsuspecting little face
Sounds almost exactly like me! Feeling like I need reassurance too. Took a test today because I’m crazy haha. 7w5d and the doc next week can’t come soon enough!!
