Don't start a brand new thread asking if the symptoms you're experiencing are normal. K? Thanks!

Lollllll. Some of these posts make my head want to seriously effing explode. So many ss.
Weird ass dreams and stiffness in my hips. I can't sleep with my snoogle pillow because it makes me feel trapped.

staciecoffey · February 2015

Im over stiff hips, I see a pregnancy massage in my near future. And all the heartburn! I swear satan himself is crawling up my throat!

thelittlestbee · February 2015

I am so over my freaking weird dreams! Last night I had to escape the Mexican drug cartel! NOT COOL!

staciecoffey · February 2015

Why are people commenting on Mondays symptoms thread?

queenelizabetha · February 2015

Movements in the morning and stiff back all through out the day. My heartburn has got better so far this week but I have had bad head aches.

staciecoffey · February 2015

Damn the headache to hell! Glad your heartburn has let up!

amabarne · February 2015

I threw my pregnancy pillow off the bed last night because it was so annoying! Sacrum and pubic joint pain is rearing it's ugly head again. And can I just eat a whole sleeve of thin mints right now please?

staciecoffey · February 2015

I need all the chocolate! DH started a fight at 6:45 in the damn morning only to get mad at me for not arguing and then he left without so much as a goodbye. Pregnancy hormones are in full swing and I think chocolate will help.

I didn't have very bad back pain with my ds until the very end. I'm 21 weeks and have had severe back pain for almost 2 weeks now. The twins are very low, so that must have something to do with it. My lower back and tailbone areas just kill. My husband has to massage it and put ice on it every day. If he doesn't, I'm barely able to walk at all. I'm hoping it gets better soon.

starrysmile18 · February 2015

I have a nasty cold/ sinus infection thing going on. That's REALLY not helping the not sleeping thing.

Also haven't noticed baby moving much at night, but lately when she does move, my belly gets REALLY tight. I can't feel her yet from the outside, but it's a different sensation than my pregnancy with DS.

Other than acne and odd dreams and random dizziness, life is good.

mrssscott28 · February 2015

Woke up at 1 am with my heart racing - felt like it was gonna beat outta my chest. It felt bizarre because I was in a restful state. Tried everything to slow it down by deep breathing, closing my eyes to see if it would pass. The only thing that did help was a pregnancy app on my iPhone you listen to. I have an appointment with the nurse today, I'm going to see if this is normal or cause for concern.

ihartbb · February 2015

normally don't have anxiety, I'm not an anxious person. I am a little bit of a worrier but it's never caused anxiety. I seem to have a lot of anxiety lately from little things. I have anxiety about work, and mi overwhelmed about my job and what will happen while I'm
Out on leave and if I can continue doing my job and earninng enough money for our household. I'm
In sales so it's commission based with no real salary and that makes me nervous. I freaked on DH yesterday, started crying hysterically and said some hurtful things out of emotion.

Anyone else suffering from more than normal anxiety and what are you doing to help keep calm?

Baby is moving a lot in the evenings and mornings and sporadically throughout the day. I'm feeling pretty good other than the anxiety/stress and just being a likte extra tired. No heartburn and I haven't been sick. Sleeping is tough but I'm beginning to get used to lack of sleep

(

Really feel like I just need a me day. Or atleast a few hours!! Sit on the couch and veg and watch dvr in silence!

mommytobe1695 · February 2015

Started getting acid reflux these past couple days, so bad. Lo loves to just ball up all the time tummy is always tight. Horrible back aches, stupid side sleeping and this acne could go away anytime now!!!!!

lrathbaby3 · February 2015

I feel like shit today. Nauseous shakey head ache feeling like death. So I am sitting in the living room looking at the bump and the kids are in the family room/play room destroying it taking all the toys out and throwing them everywhere.... At this moment I could care less about anything.

Emilywooddesign · February 2015

I'm feeling really good lately, just tired and I had a bit of a sore back the other night but I blame that on standing too long in 6" heels. By the end of the day I'm feeling very full and not really able to eat much but that's okay. I'm still taking diclectin at night because I will vomit if I don't. Twin belly is slowly growing and I'm feeling pretty excited

leightrain · February 2015

Feeling great except for the heartburn, which seems to happen regardless of my food choices. I was really sick the first tri, so I'm relieved to be feeling decent again.

CraZy DrEaMs! lol, I dreamed I was in the Skyrim Black Reach and I killed a man with a sword. I also dreamed I was trying to escape a prison camp and it looked just like my highschool! More entertaining than annoying, so far.

The baby is moving lots today, which is awesome, since I just started feeling it yesterday and today. I even felt a couple good moves on the outside!

The bump, I believe, is here to stay now for the rest. lol

briafields94 · February 2015

These leg cramps! & I'm experiencing heartburn as I type this... All I want to do is enjoy my pizza but every bite I take turns into pain in my chest... I hope this doesn't last long

ngaines27 · February 2015

I've had a headache for 6 days!!

( I've tried everything I know to do and nothing helps. I went to the chiropractor this morning; it helped my achy hips but did NOTHING for this headache. On the bright side, I finally felt baby boy move and today marks 20 weeks and halfway to the finish line!

valeriemarie24 · February 2015

Definitely been feeling the sore hips and all the other aches and pains. And I was walking through a snowy parking lot and my foot slipped and I turned in a really awkward way, so it kinda feels now like I pulled a muscle or something

babybran22 · February 2015

I've been having back pain and crampy feeling. I have zero energy and feel so lazy. I'm thinking I've been feeling growing pains. I've been feeling baby kicking all day

aj1327 · February 2015

Symptoms haven't been too bad...just a bit achy and tossing & turning at night. Love feeling my little guy move around.

No one else has mentioned it recently, but has anyone else noticed increased discharge? It seems like it increased even more at 20 wks. So annoying!

rrcameron21 · February 2015

I have all the symptoms! Heartburn, headaches, mood swings, increased discharge... Pregnancy is hitting hard today! I also feel like someone is blowing up my uterus like a balloon, it's so sore. All this and I'm only 2 hours into my day at work. Wish me luck!

Kathjnr22 · February 2015

The crazy dreams are mad.... most of mine have been quite upsetting thoughn- ppl dying etc... my hubby just says "here we go again" as soon as I say "I had another dream last night"... it's mad...

Feeling pretty good otherwise - lotsa movement which I'm loving.... not loving the lack of sleep so much though....

Kinda mad that sCoffey has been banned even though she started this thread!

gilder40 · February 2015

What did she do?? I haven't seen anything ban-worthy of hers. What the heck?

Kathjnr22 · February 2015

I don't know but she must have been banned in the last few hours. She's been very active in the last few weeks...

mamayo26 · February 2015

Let's see: RLP, wierd a$$ sex dreams, back and hip pain, siatic pain, the starting of carple tunnel, and this kid is using my bladder as a punching bag and trying to bust out through my belly button (which is starting to look like a cat butt). That about covers it.

MrsCaliRN · February 2015

My abdomen, back and hips are so achy all the time. Also, I was praying for movement only weeks ago, now the baby moves non-stop and it's starting to become annoying. I certainly don't and never will take it for granted though. Just wanted to put that out there.

Besides that, I've been a hungry, hungry hippo and have given up all hope that my MW is going to be happy with my weight at tomorrow's appointment. I managed to gain only 3lbs between my first appt at 9wks and my 15wk appt. At my 15wk appt she told me I should only be gaining 0.25-0.5lbs a week. Needless to say, I will have my 20wk appt tomorrow and I have successfully packed on 7lbs. I guess I blew that 0.25-0.5lbs/wk goal out of the water.

ETA: Since there have been a lot of dreams lately, I thought I'd add that I had the craziest Hunger Games-meets-porno dream last night. I woke up so confused and seriously questioning my innermost thoughts. I think I need to start watching Sprout TV (little kids channel) before bed so I can maybe have a normal, G-rated dream for once!

kcwarren91 · February 2015

Nausea seems to be going away at 19 weeks. About time. Still have it when I try to eat certain foods or am just getting food in my stomach but yesterday was glorious not having to deal with the constant nasty feeling. Heartburn seems to be getting worse and when I have acid reflux I get super nauseous. But Zantac seems to be slightly helping. Might be starting to get more energy and not sleeping 10 hours a day. Which will be much needed in these next few weeks. Had a really bad hip/leg joint pain last night that killed me to walk. Cramps have been at their worst the last few days and stomach stretching is killing my belly. Way better than first tri though.

MJMum524 · February 2015

GD vent. I had GD last pregnancy. This pregnancy they tested me a little earlier. I had the one hour test and it came back "slightly elevated". The receptionist at my doctor's office just called and said I had to now take the 2 hour test to be sure. I said "really? I'm pretty sure I have it if i had it last time. Can I just not take it and be treated for GD please". She said no, it is mandatory. Bullshit people! Waste of two hours of my life and have to drink sickening drink only to be told yes dear you have GD. I am pissed off!! Anyone else been through this?

Is it because she said Fuck?? A lot of us have!

moz3518 · February 2015

@amccoy129‌
I have definitely noticed an increase in discharge around 20 weeks. I'm now 23 weeks tomorrow and it's still increasing and at times it can be almost watery. Mentioned it to my OB at my appointment yesterday and she checked for amniotic fluid just to be safe. It was negative. She said that as long as it's not itchy or smells weird, extra discharge is normal and to expect it to increase until delivery!

kbbtah · February 2015

Pelvic pain on my right side. Just started about 2 hours ago and gets worse if I move. I will call doc tomorrow if it doesn't get better. Just not sure what to think of it.

rosa2935 · February 2015

In a moment of raving pregnancy cravings, I bought 5 packs of thin mints from the girl scouts. Lol

mamayo26 · February 2015

@MJMum524 I had GD last time too and I won't be tested until 28 weeks since my early 1st tri test came back fine. My doctor said i could just take the 1 hr and then based on the result determine what we would like to do.

If my numbers are really elevated I have GD and proceed accordingly.

If my numbers are borderline:

Option 1 take the 3 hours test

Option 2 test mmy blood shugar for 2 weeks and see where my numbers hit and then after discussing them with my OB determine if it looks like I have GD and proceed accordingly with diet and exercise. Determine I don't and go on with my pregnancy.

I would have been pissed like you. I tend to take what the "office staff" tells me with a grain of salt and always consult with my OB or the nurse on my case. I've already had several instances where the front staff was wrong about my insurance and I am so happy I pushed back on them and ended up being right.

GL! I know how much GD can suck!

momtobeobrien · February 2015

Just shortness of breath, super hungry (though nothing sounds good) and she constantly moves
