Projectile vomit of my orange juice this morning. Had to take my last zophran. I was hoping not to refill that prescription, but looks like it may be necessary. I agree about the Mondays, @staciecoffey!
Extreme hunger today. Sucks because I didn't pack enough snacks for work so now I'm counting down until I'm off. Still having heartburn and headaches in the afternoon/evening. Blah.
Married: 28 August 2014 BFP #1: 11 October 2014 EDD: 22 June 2015 -- updated DD: 20 June 2015
I'm just going to put this here for somewhere for it to go, but I'm getting ready to leave for my 20 week appt followed by a/s so not really pregnancy symptoms but nervous symptoms this morning.
I am so sorry that you ladies are having headaches! I don't know how to deal with them when I am at work, so I go around walking and looking like I'm lost.
Extreme hunger is back for me as well and my back pain is only at night (until I say that probably) BUT I don't care today because my ultrasound is later and I get to see my baby.
P.S. When you are not thirsty, drinking water is so hard...
DD has had a disgustingly runny / stuffy nose for about a week now. She takes after her father apparently and gets horrible nose bleeds when she is stuffed up...the other day I got up (she was already up with DH) and she had dried blood crusted all over her nose, and it was all over her bed too. DH is apparently partially blind and completely didn't notice (or was too busy with his cell phone to actually look at his child).
ANYWAY, yesterday I woke up with a super sore throat so I'm looking forward to joining DD in her stuffy / runny nose-ness.
Also, @missjenniebean, For real drinking water when you're not thirsty suuuucks. I forgot to pee before I started my lunch on Friday (day of my u/s) and had already finished my first bottle of water...and it wasn't a pee I could hold so I had to pee and then bolt down three bottles of water between 12:30 and 2. I just kept bolting it back in big swallows but then was feeling barfy
On the plus side - I had managed to get more than enough water into me before the u/s.
On the negative side - the tech asked me to empty my bladder so she could get a better look at some stuff and apparently after going pee and thinking I had emptied my bladder there was still a ton of water in there. Like, she was telling me I would pee myself on the way home if I didn't use the bathroom but I really didn't need to go. At all. I would have said there was nothing in there. So I might need to talk to the Dr about that next week.
RLP started last night...at least I think it was RLP. I had an achy feeling in my lower abdomen and then it would be kind of stabby if if I moved too quickly. It was super uncomfortable.
I also slept like crap thanks to my neck hurting me. I am so not used to sleeping only on my sides! I need to get a better quality head pillow, I think.
Sinus pain/pressure didn't let me sleep last night. Still not used to sleeping on my side. Woke up with horrible neck pain. I have my A/S this afternoon and I kept having dreams that they would tell me something was wrong. We opted to not do any early testing so it makes me worry even more.
I don't have much to share, other than my husband's snoring didnt wake me up until after 6am today (FINALLY) and DS didn't get up until after 7am, which is infrequent lately.
Also, I'm on my PC and I added a signature. It's not the siggy challenge (I likely won't keep up), but it's something to prove I'm real AND alw makes me giggle.
I finally slept last night for 8 hours!! That and I officially have to buy new bras today. I've been in denial but now I can only fasten them halfway or have to undo them throughout the day. I'm a 34DDD right now so a little scared for the letter that's coming but I can't take it anymore!!
I didn't feel the little guy as much this weekend but I was a little more active so I'm telling myself he was just getting more sleep.
I'm having a bad start already to the day, I have GD and ended up having low blood sugar in the middle of the night. Woke up extremely sweaty and shakey. Managed to get it back up and go back to sleep. Woke up exhausted and while I was about to leave out the door for work - ended up snissing myself, which resulted in a wardrobe change, making me super late for work. I'm grumpy as fu(k today!
I laid in bed last night and cried because I couldn't get comfortable and my husband was snoring and I am still so congested that I couldn't fall asleep. So I angrily poked H in the side to stop his snoring then he woke up and practically forced me to take Afrin so I would sleep and stop being an emotional wreck.
My 'roids are acting up due to all the pooping I've been doing lately. So yay for not being constipated, but what a sucky payoff. Also, baby Elvis is sitting so low, my lower pubic bone area is always sore.
I'm so glad to know that I'm not the only one with headaches from hell! I THINK I'm finally getting the food to upset stomach ratio down and I'm back at the gym at least 2-3 times a week so hopefully the weight gain will continue to slow. The last couple of days though I've been noticing that my feel hurt SO bad...like that I've been walking around an amusement park for 10 hours hurt but it's like 2pm and I haven't really been walking that much. My fucking feet better not get bigger!
I have felt my little guy moving so much the past few days. It's such a wonderful feeling. I feel really good today, I slept the majority of the night (which doesn't happen often). Soon time to conquer this Monday!
Tired today but so happy as found out il be having a little girl & actually felt her kick on the outside for the first time last night. I now cannot wait til my a/s to see her again
I Guess this is not really a symptom per se, but my stomach has gone from being nice and hard and round to small and soft and flabby. I looked it up and got a couple possible answers, from bloating to the baby moving positions. It just makes me feel less pregnant and more just like I've gained weight. Trying to think positive though
Definitely in the stuffy nose crowd. My tummy has been very vocal lately. It'll growl at mealtimes, then after I eat spends time gurgling and making fun noises. It's kind of amusing. 19 weeks and still no definitive movement. I'm trying to be patient, but I'm so jelli of all you girls with movement!
So enjoying my first three day weekend in a very long time. It's nice to have the house to myself for the day.
3 words... Bad root canal. Owie. Going to the dentist now. Not really pregnancy related, I guess, but my trouble sleeping has sort of paled next to nonstop toothache. I am stressing about what meds they might give me and about all of the Tylenol I have had over the last few days.
Beside the RLP,a noticeably larger bump, and hip pain, I somehow sprained/bruised/jammed my middle finger on my right hand. I can barely grip anything, it hurts so bad and is swollen as hell. For the life of me, I cannot think of what I did to cause this. I noticed it hurt immediately upon waking up from a nap yesterday, so maybe I slept on it in an odd way? Who knows.
Feeling ok today - the In-and-Out from last night didn't love me anymore this morning. That was a fun way to start Monday. I'm pretty sure what I just felt was baby, but since In-and-Out and I aren't friends anymore, I'm trying to convince myself that wasn't 3 little jabs from kiddo. They sure felt way more solid than gas (SS status has been confirmed - I'll work on that).
No real symptoms other than the usual heartburn at night annnndddd going to the dr this morning for a probable UTI..awesome! Would it be weird to ask them to listen for the heartbeat really quick, since I'll be in there anyways?
I found out at my A/S this morning that I have an anterior placenta so I feel better about not feeling baby yet. Also, found my first stretch marks yesterday, one little squiggly on each side of my belly. I was bummed at first and then I thought about our infertility journey and this quote came to mind:
My BH have been awful since yesterday afternoon. I'm getting them whenever go from sitting to standing, if I bend over, if my bladder gets just a little full ... Ugh, damn irritable uterus! They were bad like this from about 13-16 weeks and have been a ton better until now (18w4d).
I've got a chesty cough and a sore throat. I got to finish work early tho so every cloud!
A nurse collegue today was convinced she was pregnant. She asked me wait with her for the test results (the hospital machine takes between 3-5mins) but it came back negative. She was devastated and it's made her realise how ready she is. Left me feeling very blessed. Now I'm sat watching episodes of "one born every minute" and keep crying at all the labour stories!
I'm having a hard time not grabbing my boobs at inappropriate times. They're just so freakin' big now and my nips hurt. I think if I lift then, it may take the load off. My BIL is over today and I just walked through the house grabbing them. Awkward! (This isn't just a Monday issue; it's been happening since the beginning)
No movement and still no baby bump. I think I'm going to ask if I have an anterior placenta at my next appointment. There are days where I cry because I think I'm not pregnant anymore then my SO points out that I wouldn't be crying so badly if my hormones weren't crazy and I calm back down.
Looks like heartburn is going to be a part of my life again. I had it really bad my first pregnancy, but only a few episodes here and there so far. But I've had to gobble Tums like nobody's business yesterday and today.
My complaint is I finally got the sex I was wanting this week while I was out of town and wow such a let down. I was uncomfortable and it was kind of painful in some positions and ugh what a disgrace lol

I don't think it's weird. My OB office does it anytime you come in no matter what. I think they have to note it in the chart for every visit. I would definitely ask but you may find they do it anyway.
I feel really BIG? I can't imagine what I'll feel/look like at 30 weeks. I still have a decent appetite but I get so very full even after a little food. Maybe it is because there's not as much room. I don't know but if I eat a full meal I am so miserable. Add me in the awful headache club. On Saturday I felt like my head was not attached to my neck and could topple off at anytime. That's how bad it was hurting. Feet and ankles are swollen all the time now. I could make them go down by resting but looks like they are here to stay. No stretch marks yet which is so surprising as I have gained atleast 30 lbs (woah!). Good news is I passed my glucose test (They made me take it because baby was measuring almost 2 weeks ahead at my AMA scan last week). DH wants a photshoot/pics next week on the beach for half way point. The last thing I want to do is take a picture (unless HDBD:) Lots of movement so that is definitely exciting.
A lot of kicking which is so reassuring but this kiddo keeps kicking my cervix, so that's an interesting sensation. I finally feel like I'm in my second trimester. I can eat most things now and I have energy. It's just that the energy is at night.
I may or may not have just felt my first bit of movement. I definitely felt something. Almost like a muscle twitch in a very concentrated too small to be a muscle twitch type of area. For sure wasn't a gas bubble.. for as many of those I get I'm a pro at recognizing them. Hmmm. I'm about to be super obsessive over all the feels down there until I get something that leaves zero doubt.
@pcrunk -That is definitely what mine feels like, especially when it first started. I soon found out that orange juice would almost always make him move-(guess what my new drink of choice is?) It has been a little over a week of just here and there muscle twitch movements but as of yesterday they are several every hour and its great! Our babies are getting big and strong!!
I feel so hungry today...nothing has been satisfying to me. And I'm still constipated, so those two things are a lovely combo. I think I need to pull out the prunes again. But in good news, I had awesome sex yesterday with DH so that's good! I feel like my bump is getting bigger too but still no noticeable movements yet from baby.

Thank you for making me feel less like a closet SS. lolz
YES - you have just described what I've been feeling for a few days and telling myself "no way too early." I also feel less Special Snowflake now - THANK YOU
Snissed myself twice yesterday and once today so now I have to do laundry. Also for the love of GOD when is this acne going to go the fuck away! Its everywhere, my boobs, my back, my butt, my neck and my face! It has to be some cruel cosmic joke because I never really got it in my teens...
I'm having pretty significant sacrum pain. I literally have to sit on a pillow because of the pain:(. So not looking forward to my 12 hour shift tomorrow!

Started my first day of nursing school today and it's already scary! So much to do!
Also just spend $200 on clothes at old navy. They had the whole store up to 50% off. Ugh
