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
Happy Friday Eve!
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?

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!

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.
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
[-(
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.
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!
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've done this! My husband looks at me like I'm crazy
:-<
That concludes this broadcast of my current symptom whine. See y'all tomorrow, same channel, same time
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.
DH, "YOU! Snoring!!"
I grunted and did my walrus roll the other direction
