2nd tri symptoms....

Almost 20 weeks and still with frequent headaches, congestion and plugged up/hurting ears. Anyone else experiencing the same? I know it's allergy season now which makes it worse I feel.

Re: 2nd tri symptoms....

  • I never really had allergies during allergy season before, but this year it has been AWFUL. I'm not sure if it's being pregnant or what, but my sinuses are a mess and I'm always congested.

    I'll be 20 weeks on Friday and my headaches are still in full swing unfortunately. My stomach feels tight most of the time, my sciatica is excruciating and I discovered that there is no such thing as second tri. energy boost.

    The joys :|

    Mainly, I have nausea, almost worst than the 1st tri. I am pretty sure it is from reflux. I am back to eating a lot of saltines and bread.

    My allergies gave gotten better, but I am getting some headaches.

    The 2nd tri energy boost is a myth. It doesn't come.

  • Nope, no one on this board is feeling this. Haven't read about anyone else having these very same symptoms every day.

  • 19 weeks here with nasal congestion every morning. I probably go through at least eught tissues before I get out of bed.

    Does not help that I can't take nasal spray anymore. And my post nasal drip is constant, ugh! Hard to tell what's the result of lack of allergy meds or plain ol' pregnancy.
  • Yup, 2nd tri is definitely rougher than the 1st.  It's not fun, but it is worth it.   :)

    Me too! I was sooooo sick 1st tri. The 2nd tri started off with bad headaches but that's died down alot. My only major symptoms besides lots of RL pain is having to get up to pee 6 times a night and getting spouts of heavy tiredness, but I'll take these vs. 24 hour morning sickness any day!
  • Compared to 1st tri, I'll take the headaches and allergies in 2nd tri any day. I still have nausea and vomiting, but it's a lot less now.
