Hope you're all not knocked up with a half vampire hybrid baby! Let's talk symptoms!

Edit: removed mean girls gif because it's no longer Wednesday. Even though I thought today was Wednesday. It's not. It's Thursday. Also edited title to read Thursday because it's not Wednesday.

My DD wakes up every night at 2 or 3. I get nauseous when I get up with her, crackers on my nightstand help, but the crinkling wrapper gives me such a bad headache that it almost outweighs any help the cracker does.

That's why this thread is being started so early today—nauseous insomnia.

myfriendscallmemeg · December 2014

@adelbert‌ shiiiiiiiiit. I'll go edit now.

dilutedsanity0 · December 2014

Still no sleep for me.. Up all night., trying again for sleep now. No other symptoms really except mild cramping., still early at 5wks4days..

worldsokayestmom · December 2014

Awful headache yesterday and I was so tired I feel asleep at 8 pm. First tri exhaustion has set in!

MarathonHiker · December 2014

I've got nothing. Because it's always the same. I'm tired and I'm queasy.

But I had an appt yesterday, that was kinda fun. None of you seasoned pros told me she may go up my butt with a finger. THANKS GUYS. Boring appt, though... weight, blood pressure, pee. No u/s until my NT. Yes, putting this all in the symptom thread.

Oh, I also have a coffee aversion right now and that really, really sucks.

I have my first appointment today with the nurse at my office. Thanks for the heads up about what might happen!! That's a total surprise to me.

Seh114 · December 2014

I'm exhausted all the time and queasy off and on all day. Lots of cramping, which I didn't have with my other 2 pregnancies so it is strange to me.

Seh114 · December 2014

@myfriendscallmemeg‌ Try putting them in a ziploc bag, maybe that will help with the noise.

gcurson1991 · December 2014

Gas. And I can't poop. So far have only Chucked once.

BriannaRobbins2013 · December 2014

I work the night shift on the last half of the week, so sometimes I can't tell if my tiredness is from that or not! This week, all I've done is sleep!!!! My boobs have been tender, but not painful... Well today, they are hurting sooooo bad! I have lots of gas and pee all the time!! When I do sleep, I'm dreaming constantly! Night sweats (or day sweats? Since I work nights.. Lol) no morning sickness at all.... But constantly thirsty and ALWAYS hungry!

It likely depends on your office/practice because when I asked my best friend, she never had a rectal exam in pregnancy. Ugh! You probably wouldn't with just a nurse, I don't think. My midwife did it. I mean, it was super quick- like 2 seconds. But still.

jagbean · December 2014

I'm up at the same time every night, feeling the same way! Thought I was going nuts. I ate applesauce at 330 in the morning yesterday. It made me feel loads better.

jagbean · December 2014

I usually have random bouts of nausea every day. I don't want to eat most days. I usually just put something down really quick so I'm not starving. Haven't been overly tired but serious boob pain and I pee every 15-30 minutes which is just awesome. I already had my first appountment. Taking it easy, doing everything I can to prevent a second miscarriage, at least what I can control.

MissesFroom · December 2014

I want applesauce now.

I sent H to the store last night for a high fiber diet. I mentioned yesterday the terrible constipation I'm experiencing. I'm going just not regularly like I am use to and much harder (sorry, tmi). I may call doc today about taking stool softeners?

Nausea throughout the day, and mostly dry heaving. Fun times.

Is anyone else burping a lot? I've been doing it several times a day the last few days. Add that to my continuing nausea (why must it last all day?) and the fact that everyone in my office seems to annoy the crap out of me, and that makes for a really fun work day.

I burp all the time. DH thinks I make it up. I'm like "Who likes burping 47 times in an hour?" especially because one of those burps typically makes me want to vomit. It's so weird. I can't pinpoint if a certain food makes me do it or what...?

MarathonHiker · December 2014

what is there to side eye? certainly didn't fib about something so silly. Go to google and put "rectal exam at prenatal visit" and you'll see it come up a BUNCH (I know, I did this after my visit).

kileymae17 · December 2014

Woke up at about 12:30 in the morning and threw up everything I ate for dinner. Also had cramping and was super constipated. Not sure of the cramping was the baby or the constipation!

xoalicia · December 2014

I'm at work right
Now and I'm pretty sure I'm dying of heat stroke

lol oh and nausea and cramps .. Better start taking elevator and not
Flights of stairs

mhaas28 · December 2014

At 3 in the morning I wake up and can't go back to sleep for like an hour or 2. I have some smell aversions and I am super gassy. I did not have gas problems with my first. Nausea is starting too. Last nigh I almost threw up

lovepink2007 · December 2014

Light cramping on and off & I am much more tired! Here's hoping this is the worst of it.

CrouchingTiger · December 2014

I've been extremely tired and bloated. Woofed down a pizza last night that my husband said was too salty. I've been waking up at random hours of the night. Boobs are plump as my husband tells me. The biggest issue I have is my mind...at times I feel like it's playing tricks on me. On Monday I went to the clinic for an ultrasound due to bleeding and cramping. Saw the baby and its heart beating but the dr considered it a "threatened abortion" and need a follow up ultrasound on Monday. I haven't had cramps or bleeding since the one instance but with the stress of prepping for a two week company shut down and playing the waiting game...I AM GOING INSANE!

xoalicia · December 2014

Oh.. I spoke to soon

there is the
Vomit .. Thank you cream cheese bagel lol

vsandbrook · December 2014

Morning 2 of a real breakfast and no puking. I feel almost human. Now if my real appetite would just come back...

bookwormfnp · December 2014

Does a yeast infection from hell count. I've never had ok me before I was pregnant. Now I want to sit at home with no pants lol.

Ampaints · December 2014

I was so busy at work yesterday that I didn't end up drinking enough water. Paid for that last night when I was up every two hours because I was dying of thirst. I should have been able to sleep in today as I took it off to finish shopping and for my ultrasound this afternoon, but the closer to normal waking time I got I started waking up every 30 minutes. Maybe I can find time for a nap.

skinandbones · December 2014

I'm super tired last night and I think my hormones are all over the place. DS (17 months) woke up last night and after nursing him almost an hour last night I ended up in tears. I had to pass him off to DH who got him back to sleep super easy. It was so painful to nurse. I think it may be time to wean...

shupertj09 · December 2014

I am just so freaking tired! Like messy bun, no make up, maybe a little smelly, drag myself into work and not give a flying fuck tired. Sorry boss man, not sorry!

I went to bed at 9:00 last night!!!! Growing a tiny human is hard work!

I Googled it! I couldn't resist! Wow, I had no idea that was a thing.

Now for my symptoms. I'm not even 4 weeks yet, but I am moody as hell. I don't know if that is the pregnancy, or the fact that I was unprepared for pregnancy and am going through bad caffeine and nicotine withdrawal. I also have trouble sleeping, and I woke up a little quesy this morning.

Edit: grammar

Me too with the burping! It is so charming.

myfriendscallmemeg · December 2014

The only bright spot in my day is that I'm getting my hair done today!
Also I just took a zofran so I'm looking forward to feeling like a human today!

Wait, what? Why the hell did she go up your butt with a finger? Never once did my doctor do that! The only time they got close was the group b test where they swab the anus.
Same here. Never had a rectal exam at my OB's office - either routinely or during my last pregnancy. GBS test was just a swab around the outside.

I'm sorry but I totally spit coffee all over the counter when I read this! Hahaha @MarathonHiker‌ I've herd my mom mention that her OB has done that ever since she turned 40. Something like that would definitely take me back, especially if I didn't think it was protocol. Only ever had the GBS swab. Sorry they violated you. Hope your SO got a giggle. I know MH would!

Exhaustion kicks in once nap time rolls around. I am looking forward to clearing first tri so I can going back to my afternoon coffee.

amichelle723 · December 2014

Exhausted. I've been having insomnia the last few nights and was so tired I was actually sleeping pretty well last night until the smoke detector went off at 1:30am. From the humidifier that I've been using to help with all the snot in my head (Is that a thing? I had no idea the humidifier could trigger the smoke detector). So now I'm tired and snotty and afraid to use my humidifier again at night

BeautifulBedlam · December 2014

Had been waking up no earlier than 4 am previous days, but was up at 3am today. Could't stand the smell of my AM coffee, which made me cry because I really wanted coffee. HORRIFIC mood swings, in my moments of clarity I apologize profusely to DH. And now I'm prepping for a 16-hour road trip for Christmas....

shupertj09 · December 2014

So sorry to hear that @CrouchingTiger‌! I would be going insane too! Hoping you have a sticky baby!

jlbelmonte · December 2014

For those taking Zofran, how many mg and how often are you taking it?

jessers74 · December 2014

7 weeks 2 days and still same symptoms. Insomnia, mild cramping off and on all day and still serious bloating. Boobs still hurt like hell. This is #3 for me and I did not have one of these symptoms with my other 2. This is so strange and nothing like my last 2.

aotto87 · December 2014

I am miserable. Finally ended up calling off work yesterday. The nausea is intense and anytime I do eat or drink something, my stomach cramps tight and it all goes right through me like hot lava (sorry). I am an OR Nurse and was seconds away from passing out during a case today (cold sweats, tingles, and blurred vision). I basically not taking in any calories or water and am losing weight, so thank goodness I have my first appointment tomorrow. I have no energy left to spare.

Sigh.

Edit: Totes forgot to add that I had to drive all the way home during work this morning to use the bathroom...because PPP. (public pooping phobia)

myfriendscallmemeg · December 2014

@aotto87‌ hopefully your dr. prescribes the good stuff and you can start feeling human again!

melanier26 · December 2014

Bad nausea hit me last night. Thankfully I was able to sleep through the night but it's just as bad this morning. The only thing I have tried (and have any desire) to eat is Italian bread.

I straight up feel like shit. Trying to slowly nibble on toast and drink water in hopes that I feel better. I bought sea-bands last night and they seem to help, or at least they did last night. They start hurting after a few hours though. Those that are using them, do you wear them all day long?

I used them during my last pregnancy. I started out wearing them all day, only taking them off to shower. But they did start to hurt and I eventually dropped down to only wearing them during the day and giving my wrists a break overnight.
