I am in my third pregnancy and never had this symptom with the other two before. My ribs burn and ache as if they are being widened outward. I am not carrying my bump high either! No position alleviates the pain! I gave up on tylenol in the second trimester. Who else has a symptom that just urks you to the core?
Re: worst symptom?
Besides the mood swings, the constant pulled groin muscle feeling.
this. plus my sciatic nerve. There have been days I'm literally crawling on the floor because I can't walk.
Despite this being my most difficult pregnancy to date, it's more the sum of the discomforts more than any one thing. That being said, my worst has to be just how large and awkward I am and the constant lower back pain from that.
In my first pregnancy, it was definitely the crazy bad indigestion that had me curled up in pain for hours on end that my doctor basically ignored my complaints about.
In my second, it was the tender spot on the upper right side of my stomach where my LO constantly stretched the out to a painful degree. Even wearing a shirt over the spot hurt because of how tender it got.
Yes! It keeps getting worse too... ;
Feeling like I have to pee ALL! THE! TIME!
I have bad back pain but only if I do too much on my feet...which is a great excuse to procrastinate cleaning. : ) I've also been pretty tired most of my pregnancy and have had some mild RLS. Other than that, I've been super lucky so far. I've not had a day of morning sickness or any of that other awful stuff.
All of this. Feels like someone kicked me in the vagina with a steel toed shoe.
