Anyone else having problems with contacts?

The last 2 days I am really having trouble getting my contacts in and comfortable.  Yesterday I switched to a new pair and that seemed to be ok after having them in for an hour or so, today I haven't been able to keep them in for very long at all.  Thinking that if I have problems tomorrow, maybe I'll go into the eye doctor and I"ll try to wear glasses more - just wondering if this could be pregnancy related.

    I had to stop wearing contacts when I was pregnant with my son. I never have been able to wear them since either. I know that your vision can change when your pregnant but I think it can also affect the dryness of your eyes.

    *raises hand* I notice my eyes tend to dry out more when I'm pregnant. I usually have at least some issues with my contacts. Plus, my script has changed each time. And, I needed a new script (especially for my glasses) when I found out I was pregnant. So,

    My eyes have been extra dry the past week or so. I attributed most of it to allergies but I am not having other symptoms along with it. I am hoping it passes soon. I keep saline and drops with me in the mean time.

    I have been noticing a lot of discomfort with my contacts lately. I also had problems with my first pregnancy. The last month or more, I had to wear just my glasses. It looks like I will be doing that again this time. Once I had Em, I was able to wear my

    Thanks everyone - I've also noticed that my vision was getting worse, but I had read about that somewhere.  Guessing today is going to be a glasses day.  I also have been having some allergy problems, so maybe its a combination of things.

    I haven't been able to wear my contacts since I got pregnant. They're so uncomfortable and my eyes are so dry.

    The last few days my eyes are been watering pretty bad, but I just assumed it was due to spring time allergies

    I have worn contacts for more than 15 years and I haven't been able to wear them for a month now. UGH! I have been to the eye doctor 4 times and there has been little to no improvement. They say it could pregnancy/hormone related, along with allergy seaso
