Daily Symptoms Friday 6/26

The weird post-partum itchiness and dryness continues. My lips are so chapped they look burned. I have then smothered in Lanisoh (an online tip!) and taking Advil. I can't believe how painful it is and I can't kiss my LO right now :(

I'm back to drinking a crap ton of water to try to rehydrate my body - thought I was done with that!

    The last few days I have been so itchy all over my body. Like crying in the middle of the night because I can't stop scratching, itchy. I have no idea what's going on! I have tried lotion, Benadryl, showers, creams, ointments. Nothing is working. Currently 10 days overdue and hoping this goes away when LO finally arrives...

    @Steph0727 have you tried the search thread to look up "PUPPPS"? (I believe that's the acronym.) Some ladies here have also had severe itching and were diagnosed with that. Personally, im not exactly sure what it is, but you may look into it.

    EDD is tomorrow. Feeling crappy (literally), unmotivated, stabby, and sad. Totally not any normal symptoms for me. Ready for husband to get home so the weekend can begin!

    Lovely back pain (because laying on my left hip has just become too painful) that isn't leading anywhere. Two days until due date... Good luck ladies!

    @Steph0727 I had it too ignored it for a week then mentioned it to my ob who immediately did a liver panel and I had cholestasis. The big clue was the itching not responding to meds like what you listed above because it was internal. Just thought it was worth mentioning.

    40 weeks today and no baby yet. I was kept awake all last night with my normal multiple bathroom trips and all four of my cats snuggling with me. They were permanently glued to my body last night. I also feel a bit nauseous and exhausted.

    40 weeks tomorrow and have been having intense contractions that are sporadic. They haven't let up since about 4pm yesterday but they aren't consistent in intensity or in time. Like I'll have a few 4 minutes apart and then 12 minutes apart. I talked with my doula on the phone today and she said to walk a little today and get lots of rest so that's what I'm up to today. I've been constipated so my other goal is to poop. Haha. I have big goals and dreams.

    @kbbtah and @barbgray14 thanks for the input! I think I am going to try one more cream and if it doesn't work, I will contact my dr. So far it's just itchy and no rash that I can see, so hopefully it's not too bad yet and I will deliver this weekend! :)

Tired of everyone asking if the baby is coming yet or pointing out how big I have gotten like I haven't noticed!!! Today I start the eviction process with RRL TEA AND EPO!!!! Praying it works!

    Feeling way better emotionally now that hubby is home. But other than that, I'm a broken record. Hips and insomnia continue to plague me. New symptom: last night started having regular contractions that were painful enough to wake me up aprox every 10-15 min. I really thought we had something starting. Unfortunately, they stopped and haven't had any all day. I feel for all the ladies who have delt with continued false alarms, so frustrating.

    I'm crampy, an extreme level of exhausted, and kind of done with trying to look for labour in every little thing going on with my body. I still don't really feel my 'contractions', except maybe if I sense the tenseness and just feel up my belly. Can I just sleep until it's go time, please?

    Still pregnant, still having regular but inconsistent contractions, pleased to find that I'm more effaced this week than I was last week.... My hips feel like they're about a mile apart and I have about zero tolerance for any damn thing.

    39+6. Cleaned the entire downstairs yesterday and got some lovely cramping. I thought maybe I kicked something into gear, but just kidding...
    Sigh.

    I seem to have developed a cough/cold 1 week PP.

    Emotional over baby's health/wellbeing
    Tender & raw downstairs from my tear
    Huge hemorrhoid
    Starving
    Cracked nipples
    Exhausted
    Intense back pain and muscle spasms
    Juicy cough & snotty nose

    I want to sleep for 5 hours like in the old days...
