  Best: The happiness I feel in knowing that my body is doing something pretty beautiful right now, even if my first trimester has been very rough. Not really a side effect, but a result of pregnancy.

  
  

  Worst: Nausea, food/drink/smell aversion to everything, constipation, and fatigue. I had to give in and start taking diclectin 2 weeks ago, as I was losing weight. Nausea is now bearable and my food/drink/smell aversions aren't as bad :-bd

  Best: The extra weight looks good on me and I finally feel normal instead of scrawny and malnourished.
  
  Worst: Tie between constant reflux and the feeling that my vag is falling out because it swells so much down there. Luckily I've not experienced much of either yet this pregnancy, but I know I've got it coming!

  Best: I don't really have a good side effect currently, but growing a baby in general is awesome. Way to go us!
  
  Worst: I'm going to pick the acid reflux. It is a mix between heartburn and vomit that you get to taste twice.

  Best: Eating more often and not getting full as fast. Ive never had a big appetite before being pregnant and since im very petite, i have always struggled to eat enough and gain weight. Now its no problem to eat all the time! Also pretty awesome is that ive had no morning sickness, constipation or heartburn so far! (Knock on wood)
  Worst: horrible acne. Worst ive ever had. Since i cant use Proactive i have tried SO many other products and i am still covered in gigantic zits.

  Best: It's not easy for me to come up with a best. I like the bigger boobs for sure. Okay, I'll go with boobs.

  
  

  Worst- Eating. The joy of food is gone. I thought I was supposed to be sending my husband out for milkshakes and chocolate? I don't have that. I have no desire to eat anything but my body turns against me at the slightest hunger so I have to keep feeding myself to stave off nausea. Then after I eat something I often feel too full, or sick/nauseous, or like I suddenly realize that was the WRONG thing to eat. I find myself wanting to go to bed ASAP at night just so I don't have to deal with the whole food issue anymore. I don't care at all about having dessert. In fact, most desserts make me frown in disgust when I think about them. WHO AM I!?!?!?

  Best: Nails, not having to suck in & BABY!

  
  

  Worst: Greasy skin, so much that I could manufacture my own oil and sell it! Also food aversion, I won't eat any sort of meat right now, it repulses me. And the indecision of what I want to eat, makes it tough on hubby when dinner time comes. I swear I had an Oreo blizzard a couple of weeks ago!

  
  

  Its my first time so Im taking it one day at a time.

  Best - I sometimes feel like a superhero with this sense of smell! My hair is softer and my curls are more relaxed. and the sex is incredible.
  
  Worst - the sense of smell isn't always a gift, gag reflex, heartburn, constant peeing, gas, back pain, headaches...

  Best: This is going to sound weird, but my heightened sense of smell. It could be considered bad, like when my SO is eating his tuna garlic hummus wraps-YUCK. But the other day I had a Snickers and I swear it was like I was eating a piece of gourmet godiva truffle or something. My sense of smell has heighted the taste of things that I have been craving.

  Worst: Zits. Everywhere. I expected zits on my face, but I have never experienced bacne or chestne in my life and now it won't go away.  

  FTM & TEAM BLUE!!!

  Best - boobs look awesome and finally fill the cup of my bras (was always slightly half full because you can't get smaller cups for bigger ladies , I'm an a -b cup but wear a c cos they don't make a-b in my size !)
  
  Worst - I have two , itchy nipples that are also the size of dinner plates
  And diarrhea whenever I need to be able to go long periods without a toilet second could be a part of my UC

  Best: Boobs, I actually have some now.
  
  Worst: I feel drained and emotional ALL THE TIME. I cry over everything, then I get pissed off at myself for crying because 99% of the time it's not rational.

  Best: I can finally quit trying to explain to DH what I want my boobs to look like. Hair is growing finally! Getting to eat randomness and not be judged, DH's buddies aren't as hard on me being the only female in the group bc "I could kill them and get away with it bc the hormones" according to them!
  
  Worst: I feel like utter crap most of the time. Tons of joint pain and aches and m/s galore...
