Any gross happenings going on with you??

So, yes..I do believe that sharing a picture of your mucus plug is TMI, but I don't think sharing other gross stories is TMI. So would anyone like to share..just in case it's going on with other mommies to be???

Re: Any gross happenings going on with you??

  • I think this is more funny than gross. I was shaving my lady parts (attempting to) yesterday and pulled something from having my leg on the side of the tub so I have to make up some story when people ask why I am waddling more than usual.

  • LOL!! Oh, my lady parts looks like a confused mess!! I can't reach much and DH refuses to help me. LOL!!!

    I have gotten 2 skin tags on my areola since second Trimester. I thought the first one was a fluke but after seeing the second one appear yesterday I consulted Dr. Google.  It seems skin tags (even on the breast) are common during pregnancy.  Gross.

    PS: I performed self surgery and removed them both. Yes. Gross I know.

    Oh maybe that is what I had, it was a weird skin bump. I also preformed self surgery.

  • yeah, i tried the lady bit clean up the other day and i have no idea how it actually looks down there now...

    all i kept saying to myself is "omg, where is all this HAIR COMING FROM???"

    apparently i made lo very angry for it as well, she kicked me for about 2hrs straight after that

  • I have the messy lady parts issue too (although I try to do it blindly, the other day I felt a patch of hair in a spot I had not intended to let grow...bleh)!  My tmi issue is hemorrhoids.  I had a small one from my first pregnancy/birth but hadn't been a problem for a long time.  NO potty issues to cause a flare up, but out of the blue I got terrible pain from what I'm guessing is a new one!  :(  It's awful.  One day I'm fine the next day I'm cringing.  Doc says just use a cream, but man, it really doesn't seem like much of a solution to me! 
  • I've been having a hard time fully emptying my bladder. So when I go I kind of contort into different positions to try and squeeze out everything I can. Sometimes I get up and do a little dance and then sit and try and go again. If I don't I'll just be back in the bathroom 10 minutes later.

    Thanks for that tip!  Why didn't I think of that.

    Omg, OUCH!  I haven't had skin tags, but surely this hurts?!?

  • my other thing is my nose...

    it is so dry and crusted over with dried blood when i wake up that i can barely breathe. the other week, i actually woke up with blood dripping out of my nose

    my sinuses go crazy when i'm pregnant, which is odd because i don't usually have any sinus issues at all

    i use the netti pot thing to try and keep them from drying out, but it's no use

  • I have a hard time emptying my bladder too. I have no swelling in my feet or hands (luckily) but all of my swelling is in my lady parts. It is so uncomfortable. I would love to be naked all day but then there's the issue of discharge. lol I like the TMI posts because they always make me giggle, so thanks for asking!

    Oh yes, my discharge is out of control! I can be standing in my bathroom and it just runs down my leg. Pretty gross!

  • I've had horrendous gas, like the sulphur smelling variety. :-/ so embarrassing & gross!! I usually can't even tell when its coming, poor dh. And poor fellow target shoppers, I crop dusted the sh*+ out of that place yesterday, lol.

    I did this the other day when students were leaving my class..I was standing by my door in the hallway and when they would walk by, a good majority of them turned to their friend and said "oh ewww, someone dropped a nasty one" haha.. Embarrassed

    I do this too! Before I get off the pot, I lean as far forward as I can, then as far back as i can, then to each side...I'm sure I look like quite the show.

    I put my legs in the 10 and 2 o'clock position and lean back a little bit, then forward. I learned that from Dooce. lol

    this sounds weird, but maybe you could try coating your nostrils with chapstick?  I've heard of it working for others?  GL

    i even tried sleeping with a humidifier... that didn't work either

  • I sat down in the shower to shave the bits and legs and well, I was stuck. I couldn't get back up! I made sure all the soap was gone before grabbing the knob to pull up. When I told DH later on he asked why I didn't call for his help!
