The Pregnancy Symptom you never thought you'd get...

Re: The Pregnancy Symptom you never thought you'd get...

  • Leaky nipples! I didn't even know that could happen! Meat aversion during first trimester. Also, the heightened smell thing is really grossing me out (especially in public restrooms)!
  • Loading the player...
  • My deodorant doesn't work. I had to change it to some clinical strength and it's helping but before I could forget to put some on and I'd be fine. I might try making my own and see of that helps. I hate using deodorant with aluminum cuz it leaves nasty pit stains from where I sweat for no reason at all.

    Hyperemesis. :((

    Actually didn't even know it was a thing until I couldn't stop puking.
  • I always feel like my underarms are smelly too. I'm complaining to my husband early this evening because I KNOW I scrubbed them in the shower this morning before and after shaving and I didn't forget deodorant. It's been like this for a while. I just keep trying to change it up until I notice improvement.
    The peeing. OMG. We watching a movie tonight and after it was over, I asked him to help me off the sofa because "I'm about to pee all over the sofa!" He asked me why I waited so long to go. I didn't wait at all. It had literally just hit me. :(
  • Vulvar varicosities. Gallbladder bile sludge. Ugh, is it October yet?

  • My legs just might as well fall off. I have sciatica/pelvic girdle/what my friends call "stabbing vagina pain"/burning sensation in one thigh/midnight calf cramps in the other. None of which I'd heard about pre-pregnancy
  • Sciatic pain down the right butt cheek hurts like hell! Leaky nipples which is odd because they never leaked with my first pregnancy and hemorrhoids, ugh those are just lovely. I do get the occasional heartburn episodes too

    Nosebleeds, for me. Never had one a day in my life and now sometimes I just get light-headed and the dripping starts. A humidifier in the bedroom helps, but doesn't stop it completely.

    I have a killer homemade deodorant recipe I modified off the internet if you want it. Even a teenage boy could probably wear it without stinking. Haha. It takes some adjusting for your skin tho so for a couple days it can irritate your armpits, then your skin rebalance itself and you'll be good to go.
  • I didn't expect for my hands to go dead this early and my ankles and feet to be SO swollen! Yuck. Can't even pick up the milk jug in the am.

    Sour tongue.
    Like everything I eat seem to just sit at the very back of my tongue for hours causing me to wanna puke all the time.
    Have to be brushing my tongue 6-8 times a day. I don't think that much flouride is good
  • I also would like to add..BLEEDING GUMS!! Flossing has become a miserable experience and I will only do it every other day now!

  • Peeing when coughing or sneezing and the sour tongue. I was really hoping for the big boobs but I've only gone up a cup size. I'm also hoping my innie stays that way and that I don't get hemorrhoids. Oh and the cramps I get in my calf in the middle of the night were a complete shock.
  • I NEVER thought that I would get super painful cyst under my armpits..like what??? My doctor says that it is because of swollen breast tissue in there. No one ever told me about this weird part of pregnancy lol

    @kjacks6347 ....yup I like to call it the third boob!!!! It just hangs out ...this is my second pregnancy and its soooooo much bigger then w DS1 it gets in the way!!!!......I never expected all the gas I'm a human gas machine at least I must say they don't smell! ...and this too omg all I can do now is talk about all the gross things like its nttn...sometimes I just start talking to DH about pooping or farting or gross things and he looks at me like OK...!!!! It def takes sexy away..I've learned to stop my self alot from talking dirty lolz!





  • I'm glad I'm not the only one freaking out about an outie! I look at it every day to make sure it hasn't popped out yet , so weird

    I'm also glad to know I'm not the only one! It hasn't happened yet, and I dread it when it does!

    Also, I second the deodorant issue. My husband bought me some clinical strength, but the smell makes me throw up. Of course. It's like I can't win.
  • My belly button never popped out with DS. It remained a deep innie. I don't know if this is because of the amount of belly fat I have, maybe so.

  • I'm starting to get an outtie and it's so weird!!! It's been flat (not an innie) for a few weeks now, but this week it's getting closer to an outtie.  It's only going to get worse I'm sure!
  • I agree @taralohse.  I know I'd be in pain in my back and peeing and bowel issues...but the bleeding gums every time I brush my teeth is redic!  I'm trying some mouthwash to help and it does help some if you haven't tried that already @taralohse!  I think I'm doing Crest Total?  Helps with gingivitis.

    I'm also at that point where I'm hot!  I was a person who always had to sleep with at least a sheet on me, even if it was 110 degrees out!  Now we sleep with the ceiling fan on high and a fan at the air conditioner vent blowing out....and never sleep with any blankets and sheets on me now!

    Absolutely your decision.  I would never chose to do cosmetic surgery to enhance or reduce them, but just want them to be perky again after all the changes we will go through.  I am not opposed to anyone wanting cosmetic surgery for other reasons, but that is the only thing I've considered.  I had actually always said that, even before dating my husband that I would want a lift after children for no one other than myself!  Sounds like you have a great husband who loves you for you. My husband does as well, but he is not opposed to the surgery either.  He is supportive either way.

    Unless something changes drastically, I'll be getting a reduction after breastfeeding. I have a small frame but DDD cup size, and I have terrible upper back problems. I've already gone up in size during pregnancy and I still have months to go! The lift aspect will be a bonus! My husband is actually really on board for the reduction - I think these are getting a bit overwhelming! The other day he said "Wow, now that your belly is showing, your boobs don't look quite so huge." There were some weeks there where I looked like I would tip over :)

    I have always been petite and have had smaller perky wonderful breasts, after my first they got huge! After breastfeeding him for 15 months they were deflated and quite saggy. I compare them to something you would see in national geographic.if I ever did anything it would be a lift for sure. My bestie was in an h cup pre pregnancy, she only nursed 6 weeks and hers have been a c ever since. I wouldn't worry about a reduction, it won't be permanent!

    It's not exactly a symptom, but I am amazed at how much my bump has already changed some things I used to do, like bend over in the passenger seat and try to reach underneath the seat! That was a fail...

    I think I am a little surprised that my boobs have only grown one cup size from B to C, and all in the first trimester. Nothing since then. Stretch marks on my butt and upper thighs, but not on my stomach. Seems I am shedding less hair, but it does not seem fuller. My belly button is not yet an outie, but it has become more shallow and that feels and looks WEIRD!

    Edited to add: Insomnia! Especially this early. It's not because of baby movement. I just feel wired. Can get tired from 5-7 or so then feel awake until 12, 1, even 2!
  • None of that compares to excessive saliva n spitting all day every minute of day with spit cup glued to my hand!
  • I've had to switch to extra strong deodorant too...

    Me too!
  • I hate the dark armpits! I know the logic behind the nipples getting dark but the armpits too? Yuck.

    On the plus side I don't really smell and my hair growth slows down all over my body when I'm pregnant so I don't have to shave as often which is nice.
  • I officially wake up every 2 hours at night to go to the bathroom... I didn't think this would happen so early!!

    Oh no! That is hard :( I think I have more spit often, and a LOT occasionally. Weird! And I did not expect to get that symptom!
