I'm almost embarrassed to admit what happened the other night. I've been down with a cold and DH has been on a business trip in Vegas ๐. I went home sick from work, had no energy to cook dinner even though I knew I needed to eat.
H called and asked if I ate yet. I said no, didnt have the energy, and all I wanted was a big mac and fries, which I haven't had in YEARS. Talk about a craving. 30 minutes later Uber Eats arrives at my door with my beloved big mac. My sweet sweet husband ordered it for me after we got off the phone ๐๐ and it was DELICIOUS. Zero regrets ๐คฃ
@meandlittleb Awww I love that story, that is pretty much the most romantic thing one can do for a pregnant wife, lol.ย ย
AFM, my nausea has gotten way better in the last week.ย It will still pop up randomly from time to time but my appetite is getting back on track and I'm feeling much better.ย Hoping it just means my placenta is kicking into gear!
Not overly hungry at night. Just a little tiny something and I'm good. Should I be forcing myself to eat more so i get the nutrients, or just continue to listen to my body? I eat fine throughout the rest of the day and even have more snacks than I did pre-pregnancy.ย
@nopegoat. ย Wow! I have smell on fridge issue too. The fridge looks clean & thereโs something annoying & gross smelling out of it. I canโt eat anything from it now . Lol
Very bad acid reflux; to a point im scared of eating anything. Lost weight! nauseous at night but I feel better in the mornings. insomniaaa! I have a blanket in my office & take a nap shamelessly during the day.
energy still low, but i guess it got improved this week.
Oh! & yes! Vivis dreams some nights...
feeling miserable overall & counting down to feel better ย ย
Slow digestion anyone? I actually went out to eat today at a Mexican restaurant and didnโt really eat THAT much and itโs been four hours and I still feel overly full. Ugh! This is the first week Iโve ate relatively normal since before the 6 week mark (10+5 now).ย
@rgn12 so this IS a thing! I thought I was crazy. Iโve had 2 other babies and Iโve never had this before. If I eat or drink anything it feels like itโs just sitting like a rock in my stomach! It never movesย
@bartonolivia Thank goodness!! Ughhh I was like what the heck is going on. Any way to speed this up? Lol. Maybe Mexican is a no go, but itโs my favorite!ย
@rgn12 I cant eat Mexican food. Even before I was pregnant! I would throw up because itโs so bad. ๐ people hate me for not liking it but ๐คท๐ผโโ๏ธ I just canโt eat anything. Cereal is the best it getsย
I have a big food aversion to Mexican which makes me sAd because itโs my favorite food ever! I canโt even stand the smell of salsa! And chips and salsa are just the best.
So far the only food aversions I have had is with Greek yogurt and a pot roast containing powdered onion soup mix ๐คข. Granted, I gag and dry heave over everything. I was in the bathroom at that Mexican restaurant and it smelled and I immediately started dry heaving. Post nasal drip also makes me gag and dry heave. Ughhhh
Good: My boobs hurt less and I'm not as tired. I'm also getting my libido back somewhat.
Bad: wtf is up with these weird, random DARK chin hairs? I've found 2 in the last week. I'm pale as a ghost normally so the dark hair is like a flashing light drawing attention to itself.ย
@bartonolivia@rgn12 yes with the rock in the stomach! Worse at night. Except I still get hungry/nauseous so I need to eat and then it gets worse. Most nights I am trying to sleep on elevated pillows to try to help it go down, but it feels like I am just not digesting at all. I have had these issues off and on before pregnancy, but this is now an everyday thing.ย ย
