Weird symptoms

Has anyone had any weird symptoms that are rarely talked about?

TMI: Yesterday I noticed what I think was a skin tag on my *ahem* lady parts. I was shaving last night and nicked it with the razor. It was bleeding so I pulled the rest off with tweezers. It seems to be completely gone now. I googled it and it seems like skin tags appear more during pregnancy. Has anyone had a similar experience?

Let's hear those other weird symptoms!

Re: Weird symptoms

  • I actually knew that about skin tags....not sure why though :P

    The whole lightening crotch thing was news to me.  Until last week I was still completely confused as to what it actually was... well don't need to ask that question anymore!

    Bleeding gums was another one that I didn't know about going in to this.  Luckily it hasn't been an issue for me but still up there with "that's news to me" symptoms.

  • The muscles at the top of my bump make a skinny dome when I am sitting up from a laying down position.
  • My nails grow at a freakishly fast rate. Also, the hairs on my stomach are much more noticeable, normally their fine blond hairs but now they are long and really dark.

  • @KnitPixy‌ I honestly don't know what light night crotch is. I'm assuming that's a good thing?

    Haha! As someone who has experienced "lighting crotch", I can say that no, it is definitely not a good thing. It is when you repeatedly have shooting, stabby-like pain in your cervix that last for about 2-3 seconds. It's no fun and can be very painful!

    Ha! What I meant was it's probably a good thing I didn't know what it was :). I have had some shooting pains down there but I don't think any have lasted that long!
  • bruises! all over my legs, arms and even the tops of my hands .

    lol! I think you're right, it probably was a good thing that you didn't know! Well at least now if you get any pains downstairs, you will know whether or not it's lighting crotch :)

  • The hair on my belly is also growing at an alarming rate, it's still light blonde but it sticks up sometimes when I lift up my shirt. Never heard about this being a symptom.

    I went to buy some shoes the other day and my feet have grown half a size. This one I knew about but my old shoes still fit so it was a surprise when I couldn't get my foot into a 7.5 anymore :(
  • With my second, I had a really tiny sharp itchy pain on my stomach skin that wouldn't go away.
    The doctor said it was a nerve that was stretching, and would hurt until it broke :((

  • Me too @rodiesmum‌ ! Last pregnancy it looked like my armpits were stained. They aren't as dark yet but they're getting darker.

  • Some people posted about this in another thread, but I feel like i smell bad. I shower daily and smell normal initially, but just smell like I've gotten done at the gym without doing anything physical a few hours later. I was thinking it could be the hormones.

    And I am also in the skin tag lady part club. It's freaking me out.... Mine is too attached to just pull off. This thing has got to go.

    I was looking at my stomach the other night and noticed tons of peach fuzz. Normally I have just a bit under my belly button, but now my whole stomach is covered in it. DH has a very hairy chest so I showed him that we now have that in common, lol!

  • I only burp when pregnant lol very strange to me. And often. I had the skin tags last pregnancy,found one last night by my neck. I get spots like Beauty marks on my chest. Most were gone after the last pregnancy but they are coming back now. I had the dark line from my belly button last time, so far that hadn't appeared.
  • I have been having weird nerve twinges on the outside of my ankles and tops of my feet. Kind of like little electric shocks. I can only think that it's due to that relAxin hormone relaxing my ankle ligaments or something. Annoying.
  • I can't stand the skin tags, I use fingernail clippers and whack them off.

    @honeybeee3 well it doesnt feel wonderful but I think pain is kinda relative to the person experiencing it. I dont think it's that bad but I also don't think that shots hurt. It bleeds a lot but heals back normal.
