Thursday's Daily Symptoms

How are all of you beautiful pregnant women feeling today?

A new symptom for me is my arms and hands going numb for a short period of time. I used to only get this when I was sleeping, but now I'm having it this morning while awake. I can shake it off, it's just annoying. Also my LO is moving a lot more this morning, which makes me smile. I think she found a new position that gives her more room to stretch out.

Re: Thursday's Daily Symptoms

  • Insomnia, heartburn, insane hip pain, and crazy vivid dreams... And it's no wonder I am cranky today.

    Happy Friday Eve!
  • Loading the player...
  • My heart burn is starting a little earlier than usual... And I don't have any tums on me! Will have to rely on the old skill of distraction to get through it!
  • I haven't posted in a symptoms post for awhile because I haven't really had anything to complain about lately. The last two nights though, I've woken up with period like cramping. It eventually goes away. Is anyone else experiencing this?
  • My heartburn started a little earlier today as well. I had popped a Zantac by 10am. I also feel full/bloated today, like I just ate a huge meal. But it's now 11:30 and I haven't had anything significant to eat since my oatmeal at 8:30. In fact, the only thing I've had is a few Mini Eggs to try and stay awake at my desk. I've been seriously struggling with that this week. I had my 30 week appointment yesterday and she ordered a thyroid check before I left because they forgot to do it with my GD draw two weeks ago. Hopefully that all comes back ok and the Synthroid is still doing it's thing. 

    I suppose that's really my biggest complaint of the moment. I'm so ready for five tomorrow afternoon I don't know what to do with myself!

  • Woke up today in a "Fuck this shit" kind of mood which I know isn't entirely a pregnancy symptom, but whatever. As for actual pregnancy symptoms, I have some killer pain in my right hip and this extreme dry skin accompanied by adult acne is driving me nuts. I'm just glad today is my Friday and that I will get paid before I leave work (late I might add) even if it means I have to go to the bank with my boss' creepy SO.
  • I've been sick this whole week from last week too. so yeah dealing with that and pain down there  ;;)

  • Heartburn for me, too! I also had a bout of insomnia last night because I decided to have a battle of wills with my bladder - I did NOT want to get out of bed to go to the bathroom yet again! Ultimately, of course, my bladder won out and off to the bathroom I went, but then it took entirely too long for me to fall asleep again. And I got to listen to my neighbors fighting at 3AM again. Thank God we got a sound machine for LO, hopefully it will drown out their noise!

  • Stupid siatic nerve pain from hell. It started in my lower back a few weeks ago just at night but recently it has moved to my hip. Now today, after I sat down for breakfast, I went to stand back up and found it almost unbearable to lift my leg with new and intense pain going all the way to my toes :/

    Also all the crowding in my lungs is making breathing hard at times and giving me chest pains (indegestion is helping with that to) and all these symptoms are starting to make some previous issues I've had with anxiety rear it's ugly head. I'm trying to stay positive and not over react, only nine weeks left of all this fun! & on a lighter note I'm enjoying feeling this very active little guy today.
  • Hi-jacking for a moment. My arm is killing me. At my last appt on Tues, they gave me the T-Dap shot.

    The nurse told me I had it when I was pregnant with my DS, and it's a shot routinely given in 3rd tri. Has anyone else had thiers yet?

    Yep, had mine last week! My MIL is a first grade teacher and has had 3 confirmed cases of pertussis in the last two weeks so I figured I'd better get it, since I'm seeing her this weekend. She got one, too, so my doctor said we should be OK to be around each other.

    Is there a reason why you're asking? Or did you just want to know if anyone else had gotten the shot?

  • @karaelaine1991- I just didn't remember if I actually did have it with DS, and I was just worried that the nurse wasn't supposed to give it to me.

    I ended up googling it too, and it makes sense. I was just confirming that it was the right decision!

    Just got my TDap yesterday so it was harder than usual for me to sleep last night. It hurt whenever I try to lift my arm.

    So in addition to the hurting arm, there's the usual hip pain, peeing all the time, no appetite, dry skin/lips, swelling feet, etc.

    Oh and I almost solved my itchy belly problem. I'll just go around wearing midriffs :)
    J/k seems like I can only wear loose cotton around the belly. I'm probably going to try the oil that @karaelaine1991 recommended.

    Edited because I had a spelling error.

    Okay! I was just checking, I didn't know if there was something else you wanted to know in relation to that :)

  • I'm supposed to get my tdap at my next appointment (next Friday). My Dr said you should get one with *each* pregnancy in the 3rd tri so you pass the antibodies to your baby.

    As for how I'm feeling - achey lower back. Achey hips. Feeling crowded in my torso / abdomen. Feels like I have to sit / lay / stand in such a way so as to expand my ribs and the space underneath them as much as possible. Which is probably why my lower back hurts, cause I end up with this kinda half arch thing going on. As my friend across the pond says on fb to voice his displeasure - pffft

    My arm hurt for a good 4 days after getting the shot.  I got it last Thursday morning, and by Sunday night it was feeling normal again.

    I had this feeling yesterday evening while laying in bed trying to get comfortable.  It finally went away after an hour or so.  

    My other symptom that I just experienced in a work meeting was, insanely sweaty palms.  I never have sweaty hands.  Extremely confused by this symptom. 
  • I feel huge and full of baby. Sick of having to pee every 5 minutes. I have my checkup this afternoon and am just meh about it-it's always nice to hear LO's heartbeat though. I'm cranky and it needs to warm up here-it's been gray and drizzly yet stormy all week. I need sunshine. Ok, rant over...

  • Been having this weird pulled muscle pain right in my belly button! Never had it with my first. Other than that heartburn started last week and like everyone else my hips are freaking killing me :(
  • I feel like I'm being kicked in the vagina at all times. Other than that I feel awesome...
  • Been having this weird pulled muscle pain right in my belly button! Never had it with my first. Other than that heartburn started last week and like everyone else my hips are freaking killing me :(

    What kind of hip pain are you guys all feeling?
    What I'm having is like a stabbing pain on the outside of my hip (where the joint would meet for my leg) whenever I bend or flex my leg doing things like putting on pants, getting in and out of the car, bending to give my CP kids a bath, etc and then also a general soreness.

    Happy 30 weeks to me! I have landed myself at the hospital Because of pelvic cramping since last night.

    I was already 50% effaced and 1 cm dialated last week, so let's see what this afternoon holds.

    Edited**. It didn't post by entire post!
  • Was up for 5 hours last contracting every 15 minutes...which is the usual for me nowadays. Had to have an US today anyway to check on the location of my placenta. Cervix was nice and closed and long wahoo...bad news is that means it only gets worse from here contraction-wise and my irritable-ass uterus is the norm. No Bueno. Took 50mg of Benadryl after and had a nice 7 hour long nap.

    More upside was we got to see LO showing off on the ultrasound drinking fluid and stretching holding its feet. Made no sleep and nonstop contractions for days more worth it. 9 weeks to go!

    I have woken myself up a couple of times when falling asleep by the sound of my own breathing / snoring.

    I've done this! My husband looks at me like I'm crazy

    I've been walking around the house with my shirt rolled up to my bra line. No shame!
  • Also has anyone else had froggy voice? My voice has been shot since January. I thought it was because I was giving a lot of presentations at work but it's been 3 months now!
  • I'm battling heartburn, I've had a headache, and I'm super cranky
  • Combo of pregnancy and bed rest has led to me being out of breath just walking to the bathroom and back to my bed.

    Mine feels like I pulled a high inner thigh muscle right where my leg connects to my pelvis. If I take too big a stride (run for a train, step over dirty clothes), it is a sharp pain. Sort of extends across my crotch but not too bad. A friend who complained about her hips through her whole pregnancy said it was her entire pelvis. I don't really know what that means and I hope I don't find out!

    @ktwiki5 I have been feeling the same for three days now. Dr diagnosed as mild contractions! Told to drink more fluids and lay down when felt.....not happy, only 30 weeks!

    DH took great pleasure in telling me the other night that I snore now. He thinks it's funny.... but I'm sure that'll change if this continues for the next 8 weeks!

    I've been laying in bed for an hour and a half and I can't fall asleep. And I have heartburn. And my hip hurts from laying on it. And I'm tired, damnit, but can't fall asleep! ETA - and I'm warm! Its not cool enough in this room even tho I do not have the heater on and its 34 degrees outside! Grumble grumble... I feel like a furnace, putting out my own heat
    :-<
    That concludes this broadcast of my current symptom whine. See y'all tomorrow, same channel, same time

  • I have a lovely vericose vein in my leg that now hurts. Oh and a snoring husband laying next to me. Time for some ear plugs and praying I can sleep.
  • I'm currently on call for work til 7am...of course when I want to sleep I can't and vice versa.

    Anyone have any suggestions for rib pain? I know it's stretching cartilage but it's not even on the side baby hangs out on and it's just a constant burning.
