Man my back pain was unreal last night. I'm thinking of taking everyone's suggestions of Tylenol PM soon! I did also find a local massage therapist who specializes in pre-natal so I'm gonna scrape together some funds. Trying to wait until I'm a little further along since I'm only going to do it once.
Also, my skin was good most of this pregnancy until now. Breaking out, mini burst blood vessels, etc. I have an Elizabeth Grady gift card I'm pumped to be able to use to get s facial...
Re: Daily symptoms and questions Tues 3/24
ETA also I need it to get warmer here so I can start wearing sundresses on a regular basis... my bump makes it way too difficult to put pants on in the morning!
For some reason woke up way early for no reason and with no prompting of any kind! Hip hurts from laying on the side. I want to go back to sleep - why can't I go back to sleep!?
Last night i started to get a really sore throat. I took a cold eeze this morning it made me feel nauseous so i spit it out. Hoping it's temporary and a day on the couch with some tea will make me feel better. I've dodged most of cold/flu season, im praying it doesn't catch up with me now.
Doc called today to say I need to start taking iron pills. Thyroid, vitamin, magnesium, now iron. I am taking more pills per day than I took all of last year! Whatever it takes, I guess...
I'm having trouble getting comfortable at night and I'm also getting cramps in my right foot. It's like my toes curl and I have to work to stretch them out. Also my sweet tooth is out of control and my will power has gone out of the window...
I feel pretty good, no aches or pains yet which I'm surprised about bc I'm carrying twins. Is anyone still taking diclectin? I've tried to stop taking it but I end up spending the day throwing up, it also helps me digest my iron pills which I really need to take. My feet get very sore pretty quickly and I am having a harder time sleeping- I can't wait until I can sleep on my tummy again.
Yuck, sorry lady. I always get them when I am dehydrated, but as a nurse, you have probably taken care of that angle. My other most frequent cause is forgetting my daily cup of coffee (I used to drink like 6 cups per day before I got pregnant, so yeah, I am an addict.) But I find a nice long bath clears most symptoms for me, and going to bed early. Wish I could be of more help, and hope you find something that works soon.
I've been having pressure at the bottom of my uterus. It doesn't feel like BH or contractions. I've been drinking a ton of water. My kids have been dealing with the stomach flu so I don't know if it's related to that. I have a Drs appointment in a few hours.
