Daily symptoms 3/16

Share them!!!
Here's mine....... No baby you are not making me hungry at 415 Am...... Oooh yep ! You are..... Ugh.
Any other time of day is fine!
Also wanted to share that I tried stretching before bed and ear plugs and it DID improve my sleep in case anyone needs suggestions.

Re: Daily symptoms 3/16

  • I "helped" out in the yard yesterday and I feel miserable this morning. Contemplating a sick day, but I really need to save my days for maternity leave. Uhhh...ouch...blah!

    Ohhh please share your stretching tips!
    Back and abdomen are killing me this AM.

    Also, having lots of Braxton Hicks and baby movement last night and this morning. Oy.
    But hey, I was able to eat! Squash casserole then a bowl of Raisin Bran. Kept it down, so here's hoping for a good food day. =)
  • Calf cramp!!! I swear I'm drinking enough water but waking up crying was no bueno. Plus the hip pain no matter if I have my awesome preg pillow or not is getting old. I just feel like my body IS old the last few days.
  • I didn't sleep well last night, I was very restless. And I guess the Zantac wore off in the middle of the night, because I had heartburn, but it was too close to when I had to take my Synthroid this morning, so I just had to tough it out. So I'm a little sleep deprived this morning, but that's really my biggest complaint. 

    We did wall sits in class at the gym this morning and it felt really good to press my lower back against the wall and hold it there. Nothing new or unique over here to report, though. Just a few mild discomforts, so I'm certainly counting my blessings there. 

    Oh, I did get kind of stuck trying to get out of my plastic Adirondack chair yesterday. There was grunting and the waving of my arms and legs involved. All in all, fairly hysterical.

  • Depression reared it's ugly head again late yesterday and I have been a blubbery mess ever since. I forced myself out of bed and into the shower this morning in hopes it would motivate me to "get out there", but here I am dressed, sitting on my couch, trying to hold it all together for the kiddos. I just wanted to hide under my covers. . . My hips, back and legs are also a total bummer.
  • Lots of back pain. Anyone with any suggestions to make this better? I'm miserable.
  • :(@ngaines27 - sounds like a park day, if possible. The kiddos can run amok, and you can maybe sit in the sun and just feel it on your face. Hugs

  • @ngaines27 I also suffer from preg depression. I did get prescribed Wellbutrin because I asked for it. You really should consider. It doesn't take away all bad days but it helps me get shit done around the house! Thinking of you.

    I was able to get one of those belts that is supposed to relieve some of the tension on your lower back. It has helped me quite a bit, but I've heard mixed reviews depending on who uses them.


    Also, my symptom would be that I am still sick :( Went to the doctor this morning and took a sick day from work because I just feel crappy. I had full intention of taking a nap....and then I opened this app lol

  • Still having a rough time getting any sleep and becoming more and more frustrated with the number of things I need to get done. I run out of energy so quickly and it feels like everything requires bending which is like a strenuous workout with the baby belly.
    On the more pregnamcy related side, Braxton Hix are becoming a bit bothersome. I really hope they dull out and this isn't just going to be a torturous third trimester thing. Also, as much as I love LO's movement, the kind of kicks and rolls where you can see them on the outside of my body are now kind of uncomfortable, not quite painful but definitely not the best feeling ever. Oh and I really hate going pee all of the time...
    I'm feeling a bit stressed and gripey if you couldn't tell...
  • Really really horrible sinuses! For the past few days I thought I was coming down with a cold, but it turns out it's just pregnancy-induced (or pregnancy-worsened) sinus issues.

    I took your advice and went to the park. It absolutely helped. Still a bit weepy, but the sun helps! Thanks!!
  • Feeling the sun on your face or breeze thru your hair is usually a nice in the moment pick me up. Glad you're feeling a little bit better. Now for ice cream or girl scout cookies and a stupid funny movie

    Thanks for your thoughts. This isn't just a pregnancy issue. I've dealt with depression/anxiety for years. When I found out I was pregnant, my doctor recommended that I come off my current medication until after delivery. I've taken Wellbutrin before and it wasn't much help for me. I have an appointment tomorrow and plan to discuss it again (it was also a discussion at last month's appointment). I've always been able to come off my meds while pregnant, but I'm living/working in a much more stressful environment with this one so I'm not sure I'll be able to hold out this go 'round.
  • I think my body forgot what its like to not be pregnant haha. Still the usual back, leg, and feet pains that I always get except the past week I've either come down with a cold or sinuses are just really bad lately from being pregnant ohh and not to mention the headaches I've been getting also.
  • My legs ache and I cant stand to long or they turn purple :(
  • Sinuses since forever and always feeling like I cannot get enough air not much else as far as daily goes
  • Sciatica alert! I can hardly walk when it kicks in! I walk around asking family and friends to rub under my deep butt area! Lol! Getting a belly band this weekend for sure!

    And this hungry thing is getting out of control! I'm like a fat girl with a bowl of fruit and a bag of Doritos!

    Best part tho is she's heathy and moving like clock work!

    87 days left to see my baby girl!
