dkleid · November 2014

My mouth tastes nasty!! If I could brush my teeth 10 times a day I would!! anyone else desling with this>>

willowprincess · November 2014

Holy round ligament pain Batman! Seriously! It woke me up multiple times last night. Now I'm curled up on the couch praying the baby doesn't want to nurse, becuase he's too wiggly and will kick me.

MisDawnD · November 2014

I could not sleep last night. Woke up at 12:45 thinking it was time to get ready for work.
I am having a weird pain in lower abdomen that I can't describe really-not cramps at all but almost like a pulled muscle or stretched muscle when I strain. Is this something that I should know is normal? On another note my tummy looks/is huge today-so I am just letting it hang (or poke out).

DianaRenee8110 · November 2014

I think someone forgot to tell my left boob that I'm pregnant. My right one has increased almost a cup size in 2 weeks and is SOOO sore but my left one is only slightly larger than usual... here's hoping it's not a sign of times to come.

adorebel · November 2014

Is anyone else waking up with completely dead-asleep arms? I start on my side, but often end up on stomach or my back (not for long, I know!) with my arms over my head. The last few days, I've woken up with my arms so asleep that it takes several minutes for feeling to return to them.

honeybunches101 · November 2014

So nauseous today. I'm not sure how I am going to survive with my wild toddler running all over the place while I try to clean and pack for our thanksgiving road trip. And my best friend is visiting from across the country and we got a sitter to go out to dinner at a fancy restaurant. Should be a great time, but all I want to do is lay in bed and eat saltines. Must. Get. It. Together.

brody624 · November 2014

I was having some sharp pains on my lower right side on Saturday night. It freaked me out because it wasn't cramping or stretching. So I'm hoping it was gas pains but I never had gas or had to go to the bathroom after that. I kept going to the bathroom to check for bleeding but nothing... Not sure what the pain is but I think all is okay.

I am having a weird back pain on my right side too when I do certain movements. Sometimes it actually shoots to my mid back thigh. Super weird.

I THINK I am finally on the downhill side of MS... I HOPE! I usually get sick when I first wake up and then I am okay... 2nd Trimester peeking through??

B&KsMom · November 2014

I am 11 weeks tomorrow. Can't understand why I am feeling worse the past couple days. Threw up my breakfast this morning.

I am so done with this and I am starting to feel bad for my girls.

awheeler4311 · November 2014

@adorebel‌ I don't have it while I'm sleeping, but I do get it when I'm sitting at my desk all day or driving in the car!! It's weird.. My legs and arms both.

I have had the WORST headache for 3 days now... Even woke me up in the middle of the night. Thinking of calling the doc even though I know it's common and normal just to give them a heads up. Avoiding tylenol just because I'm weird like that but I may have to cave and take some.

Also... My areolas are peeling? And my nipples have this crust on them... Can milk be doing that already? Almost like they're clearing out...!!

tahitiandreamin · November 2014

I really hate Sundays and Mondays. For the past month those two days have been the harbinger of increased nausea and fatigue. My nausea is only slightly better than yesterday. The worst part is that I've become super dehydrated (and I think that I'm coming down with DD's cold) but I really can't stand drinking water right now. I'm forcing myself to drink something so that I don't feel worse. AND I had a super restless sleep last night...

I'm so ready to be done this next month. By ~16w I should start feeling a bit better.... at least I did with DD so that better be the case now.

darvo · November 2014

I threw up several times already, as per us'. I'm having breakfast with a friend now. The cafe is on the third floor and the nearest bathroom is on the first.

jcprn · November 2014

Crazy dreams, as per usual. Last night I had a dream that I saw a man driving in a red miata on the highway holding a baby on his lap. I tried calling 911 because I had gotten his plate number but I kept getting a recording when 911 dispatch picked up. When I finally got ahold of someone I woke up muttering gibberish and DH asked me if I was OK lol.

I keep having lower back pain at work when I'm walking around, mostly the left side but sometimes the right side feels left out and jumps on in for the fun. But I'm crazy and trying to avoid meds, even just Tylenol. I'm going to talk to my OB about it on Wednesday but I feel like he won't take me seriously if it hasn't been bad enough where I needed to take something for it. But it's more my stubbornness than tolerance for the pain. I'd like to see a chiropractor or something if it's appropriate.

Early this morning I had a small sharp pain in the left side of my stomach while I was laying on that side, not sure if it was round ligament pain or what but I got up, peed, laid on my other side and it was gone. I'm thinking I'm going to need one of those snoogle body pillows soon...

I am having exactly the same thing! I was 11 weeks yesterday and the past few days I have really been feeling terrible - horrible indigestion, constant bloat, nausea (had previously been very lucky and hadn't had MS), weird stretching feeling in lower abdomen, sharp gas pains, constantly shattered... really not fun and hoping we shake it off soon - good luck!

littlechemist · November 2014

Sudden and intense craving for shortbread currently.

That's all I got. Anybody have some shortbread?

mrscampos4life · November 2014

My sciatica hurts on and off in my left butt cheek, some rlp when I reach for things (was doing laundry). I've noticed they used to go numb at night, but it has not happened in a while.
Other than that... Nothing much...

elvinnoe · November 2014

Ditto on the weird dreams and pregnancy brain. I actually got to sleep in this morning and woke up for the first time in weeks without immediate nausea. It came back when I had to change DD's diaper though. Next thing on the to do list is get that girl started on potty training! Toddler poop is no joke.

@adorebel - My hands go numb when I am lying down or leaning on my arm. I haven't woken up with them being numb yet though. It seems to be a daily occurrence.

I have major pregnancy brain. I had to go online and check to make sure all of our bills had been paid because I had NO IDEA if I had paid them or not. I pay them on the first of the month every month. Someone asked me what we did this weekend. No idea. Took me 5 minutes to figure it out.

This! The pregnancy brain! I didn't honestly think it would happen so soon, but I have been going through this for weeks and it's only getting worse! I did the exact same thing this weekend with my bills. Then today, I drove past my work...twice. I have no idea where my brain is! It's like my brain has a serious case of "fukitol" and has just went into a serious hibernation.

katier29 · November 2014

It's 1030 in the morning and I've already eaten my breakfast lunch and snack I packed to last me all day.I'm starving! And I'm bitchy today but nausea is only minimal.

Bednarova · November 2014

pregsomnia, but tired ALL THE TIME!

and I have to eat every 1-2h or I'll start dry heaving.

and I'm starting to think I will be eating NO foods on thanksgiving, bc all of it makes me want to puke. None of it is bread, or pasta, or pizza or soft pretzels. I'm thinking of buying a can of Grands Biscuits just to have something to eat.

MIL offered to make me some czech rolls, and I'm like no. I need butter. and preservatives.

suzysurparis · November 2014

@misdawnD that might be round ligament pain, have you looked it up?

For me, mostly nothing. I'm not even super tired anymore. I am hungry though, but it could be just the Monday extra hunger from the weekend. Oh, and I have a shorter tolerance for bullshit. But I like that symptom.

Emilywooddesign · November 2014

Well I'm 12 weeks today and was hoping to wake up to a miracle but I've been up sicne 3 am throwing up stomach bile. Today is by far the worst day I've had but week 11 was also pretty terrible. I'm hoping it doesn't last to much longer because I can't do this anymore

SabrinaM02 · November 2014

Day 2 or 3 with a huge headache, I'll probably cave and take something. I'm also super cranky/bitchy today (kinda feel bad for my coworkers, but at the same time I don't). That's about it, oh I'm hungry all the time! I've eaten breakfast, lunch and am now eating a snack and it's only 10:50am.

jbartsy · November 2014

Still have a bad case of nauseahunger, and I'm so tired. So so tired. I just want to go curl up in my bed and hibernate until Thanksgiving.

Oh, and my face and hair have a "glow"... from the light reflecting off of the grease. So oily.

veggiemo · November 2014

Waking up feeling slightly hungover. Bad taste in my mouth, tiny headache, a bit nauseous. But as soon as I brush my teeth and shower, I feel fine.

Can I bitch here? I just got a bill for $164 for the internal ultrasound I had a few weeks ago. Apparently my insurance doesn't cover it? At my very first appointment with the nurse, I mentioned how I didn't get one for the my last pregnancy because I didn't have maternity insurance for that pregnancy (I do now, but evidently it's shitty) and she said "Oh, we don't even charge for that". It sounded weird to me, but that's what she said. And then I get a bill. What. The. Fuck.

junch817 · November 2014

12 weeks today. Nausea hasn't decreased a bit. Exhausted. And I pretty much have no hope left for being able to enjoy some yummy Thanksgiving feast on Thursday. I'm being a whiny brat about it too.

DaveandKim08 · November 2014

Emilywooddesign I understand your pain. Saturday night I was up from 3am-6am puking bile, on top of that I had a horrendous head-ache so I caved in an took two Tylenol...it was awful! Luckily last night I was nauseous but still able to get some sleep (thanks to Diclegis) and this morning I seem to be feeling a little better. I hate taking meds while pregnant but I have caved in for the category A ones, like Tylenol and Diclegis...this suffering is just almost unbearable. Getting my 12 week sonogram today

Hopefully we get some relief soon!

I made these: https://food52.com/recipes/21713-oatmeal-and-lavender-shortbread last year and they were delicious. I highly recommend!

As for me, dry skin, acne, headache . But I think that last is crazy weather induced. You know, 70+ degrees is totally normal in November after it's been in the 50s for weeks.

betsyplunkett12 · November 2014

I switched to the prenatal gummies over the weekend because I thought my other pill was making my nauseous. So far, so good! No dry heaving or gagging here - yet!

Only have a major headache today!

lmmusgrove · November 2014

Nausea hit me hard over the weekend but so far it's staying away on my surprise day off work. Not bad for a Monday! Having an appetite and enjoying food has been a very welcome occupancy today!
Pregnancy brain! Yes! The struggle is so real over here. I also didn't think it would happen so soon and still question it but good grief! It's getting ridiculous. I feel completely ditzy these days.

courtyowl427 · November 2014

@MisDawnD, I had lots of stretching and hip pain yesterday and last night. Just the uterus making more room for the baber and the hips joints losing up. Also, the round ligaments in your abdomen have to stretch to help support the growing belly. Totally normal.

After work on Friday I tried to get some Christmas shopping done and got really light headed and had a hard time focusing. I know my blood sugar got to low from not eating frequeantly enough. It took me a while to feel better after eating and taking it easy though.

Also, I look like shit. There is ZERO "pregnancy glow" over here. Just tired, haggered, pale, looking girl. My coworkers probably think I have the plague.

eve0614 · November 2014

Besides the nausea and insomnia and headache, I don't know about you ladies, but my biggest thing right now is the rage! I don't know if it's just that we've have a rough go of it in my house the last couple weeks, or that the nausea/vomit has started to get to me, but I just can't handle it anymore. My tolerance for bull has evaporated entirely and I'm not even trying to hide it anymore!

Stormy61 · November 2014

The last couple days have been the worst as far as nausea and sickness. Eating used to help but not anymore. The only time I don't feel sick is when I sit completely still on the couch.

APago · November 2014

Hit 11 weeks today and today has probably been the hardest day for me in this entire pregnancy! I had to leave school at 10am this morning after spending a good portion of my (short) morning hurling while the prep teacher watched my students for me! I'm guessing that they're catching on to the fact that I am pregnant.

I should have just stayed home this morning but I always feel guilty about calling in a supply. Looks like a bit of a trend though, 11 weeks is far from fun! Hoping things turn over in a few weeks [-X

blewis2011 · November 2014

Yesterday was the first day in weeks that I didn't throw up! Super excited about that because I've already lost 16 pounds and was starting to worry. This morning as I was getting ready to leave I sneezed and it totally threw me off balance for a minute. Morning sickness also came back for a visit this morning. But at least I had one day:)
Today is also our 12 week ultrasound!! I can't wait to see our baby again!!!!

I think I get this every now and then. It's usually when I twist (like when I'm in bed and reach over for something on my night stand..or even a couple times from just rolling over!) it's sore for a few mins after. I don't think it's RLP just based on where I feel it...just something gets tweaked. I'm not worried about it. Other than that, my acne seems to be clearing up a bit. Probably just making room for the next round! Some queasiness this morning. The usual..

mccall35 · November 2014

Ugh. I've been really nauseous this morning too. I'll be 11 weeks tomorrow (my ticker's wrong).

I also got a call from the Drs office this morning. Apparently I have bacterial vaginosis (yay, go me). They don't typically treat and I'm not having any symptoms, but still... Ugh. Gross.

MisDawnD · November 2014

@courtyowl427‌ and @suzysurparis‌ ...Thanks so much. I read more in depth and it seems like it's round ligament pain for sure. Everything has been so smooth since the light cramps and spotting at 7 weeks that any little thing freaks me out. Yes, something has to move around because my belly sure is going outward!

sammi2884 · November 2014

Can't. Stop. Eating.

@littlechemist - thanks now I NEED shortbread!

Colee11 · November 2014

Insane hunger!!! I am 10w1d and as of the past 2 days no sickness except when I feel hungry. So hungry that no matter how much I eat and drink I still feel like I'm starving and didn't eat at all! Also lower abdomen cramps (think uterus is stretching).. Some bad tension headaches recently.. Preganancy is weird! Just glad I'm
able to even eat again bc I had all day everyday sickness for the past 6 weeks bad!!

tahitiandreamin · November 2014

@courtyowl427 I totally understand the looking like shit... and in my case I feel so crappy that I don't care. I look at myself in the mirror at work and wonder who it is giving that blank stare back. I'm in desperate need of a hair cut but I don't think that I could sit through now right now. Maybe before Christmas..
