My strangest symptom so far
peanutmuse
member
Ok, so I have been extremely easy to startle lately. I jump across the room when someone pokes their head into my classroom at the dance studio. I fly into the wall when my husband walks around a corner unexpectedly. I nearly fall off the bed when the cat jumps up.
I thought that it was just in my head that this could be related to pregnancy, but I Googled it and it seems like this has happened to other people too.
Does anyone else know what I'm talking about? Please tell me I'm not the only crazy one!

Re: My strangest symptom so far
You know, I have been kind of anxious. Not jumpy exactly, just more scared. Flying scared me, which it normally doesn't, and I'm definitely more freaked out by heights in general.
My cats have definitely been able to catch me off guard more lately.
TTC since 01/13-Uterine Septum Surgery 12/12- During Surgery found Mod-Severe Endo which had left adhesions and attacked a tube. Very blessed to have found all this before TTC!

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. -Philippians 4:6-7
All PgAL and PAL welcome.
OMG this keeps happening to me recently! Never really attributed it to being pregnant though. I will see some inanimate object out of the corner of my eye and do a double take like "wtf is that????" and it's a chair or something. Lol ok now I sound like a lunatic.
I just seriously laughed out loud at my desk reading this!
The same thing is happening to me!

when my DH was out of town for business i slept with a butter knife under my pillow because i kept 'hearing' noises.
I find myself also more startled when someone wants to hug me or touch me. its like i am in overprotective mode all the time.
that and when they hug me my boobs hurt too much

I HAVE THIS BIG TIME!!!!!!
Everything startles me these days ... i work at a travel agency and every time the door opens (which is quite a few times) I jump out of my chair and my heart flutters a bit ... I wasn't like this with DS though ... but this pregnancy in general is a hot mess compared to DS!!
Seriously....I seem to say "I'm so glad it's not just me" every day on this board.
But yes....I'm so glad it's not just me! I know when DH is home and the other night I was cooking, I heard him walking around and then he as beside me and asking if he could help. I jumped two feet!!! Even my dog freaked me out the other day.
