So, how are we feeling?

How's everyone feeling? Any new updates? Still loving pickles dipped in chocolate pudding? (I used to do that as a kid.)

Spill it.

The boobs, y'all. They are out. of. CONTROL.

Also, starving. All the time. Craving all delicious summer fruits in the middle of January because OF COURSE I AM.

Oh! Had an appointment yesterday at 12 weeks (my ticker's off). Didn't get to hear the heartbeat, but they were able to measure it with the doppler. 159bpm! I'm still on cloud nine.

And last thing... DH sent me a text this morning with a picture of a box of Krispy Kremes and said "Look what Daddy got, Little Bear!" I scowled, sent him a text back that said GIMME and then he posted it to my Facebook wall. Again, more scowling, followed by "NOT FAIR. Hope you enjoy them" and I turned into a grump.

Then he sent me another message that said "...I bought a dozen. I'm bringing them HOME."

I wuv him.

@trawas01 Oh no. I'm sorry you feel so crummy! I hope you get some relief soon!

@snowflake91011 The waves definitely suck, but I'm the opposite of you. When I had a week or so of morning nausea, I preferred when I would actually get sick. I would feel immediate relief!

@trawas01: Don't give up on loving pregnancy yet! Once your MS goes away and you start feeling the baby move, then it gets fun!! This beginning part just sucks.

I'm still feeling sick. While I'm eating I feel great, as soon as I swallow the last bite..boom, sick again. Hurry up and get here 2nd tri! You can't come soon enough.

I still have a lingering cough from my horrible cold around Xmas. I think I pulled a muscle from coughing.

I ran out of Unisom and thought I'd be fine since I was 12 weeks. Wrong. I just spent the last few days in a complete nausea daze. I threw up most of my meals, had 24/7 horrible nausea and headaches. Wednesday night I woke up 6 times in the night to pee or gag/throw up. I was a wreck.

Bought some Unisom last night and took it, and I only woke up twice last night to pee (and I was starving so I ate half a PB sandwich at 1am). I got SO much sleep and I feel great this AM. I ate a piece of gas station pizza and a donut.

Unisom is a miracle drug.

I actually have been feeling decently. I am experiencing some tiredness (mostly in the afternoon), cramps here and there, and slight nausea in the AM. The weirdest thing...my headlights are always on and it is incredibly embarrassing, especially since I work in a high school.

I'm feeling pretty good right now, not overly tired or nauseated. I'm still not excited about eating meat protein, especially at dinner time, but I don't feel sick. I think I've put on a few pounds from eating too much ice cream or other less than healthy snacks, so I better watch it! I'm eagerly awaiting my Feb 5th appointment because I should be able to hear a heartbeat with doppler by then. As of now, I don't really have any confirmation that baby is doing well other than not having any cramping/bleeding.

I feel like I almost have the flu all the time. I'm nauseous, but no puking, exhausted all the time. I'm also starving constantly but nothing ever sounds good to eat. DH packed me a great, healthy lunch the other day, and I was super hungry at lunchtime, but just pushed it around my plate. I ended up eating chips from the vending machine. I almost fainted this morning while getting ready for some reason. I'm ready for it to be over. My doctor said 9 weeks it should let up, but I think she's lying to me. Come on 2nd tri!

Honey127 · January 2014

Nauseated all day long, boobs are no longer sore but they are bigger, peeing a lot, and falling asleep at 9:30pm and sleeping until 9am if I can....crazy tired! We saw the baby at 9 weeks moving and waving and has a hb so we are slowly telling everyone. I also broke down and bought a Doppler - it will be here today and I'm hoping I'm able to hear the hb!

Salsera29 · January 2014

I'm doing pretty well. No nausea but every single time I eat I get heartburn. I had some broccoli on wednesday and thought I was going to die. I've been getting headaches a lot too, and tylenol doesn't do much. They're not migraines thank god, but just a general headache that affects my whole head.

I get nauseous but I haven't thrown up yet...FX it stays that way.

Breakfast: Semi Hungry
Lunch: Starving
Dinner: I don't want to eat at all.

It sucks because dinner is usually my favorite. I had 2 chicken nuggets and 4 french fries before I declared I didn't want anymore!

My fatigue is something intense. I am tired ALL the time and almost to the point where I could fall asleep wherever I am at that time.

This is me too. I'm ravenous at lunch but by the time dinner rolls around, I'm done.

And my last three hours of my twelve hour shift at work is killer most days (unless I get a break somewhere in there). I come home and pass out.

I almost throat punched DH yesterday when he woke me up from my after work nap yesterday to go to Lowes with him. All because he didn't want to go by himself to pay the CC bill. Seriously, dude? Let me fucking sleep.

I'm nauseous all the time and puking most mornings until around noon. Tired, shortness of breath when I walk, sore boobs, pinched nerve in my back. I'm having a great time!

Ill be 14 weeks Sunday and I just hope the nausea and puking subside. I don't care if everything else stays. I just want to eat real food.

bumpuser1282882 · January 2014

I feel fat, I'm tired, I get winded easily, and I'm fucking sick of the baby kicking me whenever I sit in positions he doesn't like. Oh, and the acid reflux won't quit. I'm cranky as shit today. But still super happy to be pregnant, do not get me wrong.

This! I freaking either bruised or fractured a rib from all the lingering coughing!
