7/1 Symptom and Question thread

Life is Exciting · July 2015

Last night was the worst morning sickness I've had so far. Spent a while dry heaving and couldn't stomach dinner.

But, on a bright note, I decided to take the leap today and switch to maternity pants and tell work that I'm pregnant. I was so uncomfortable trying to hide my blump and couldn't button any of my pants anymore. Such a relief.

I feel like I've been hit by a bus of exhaustion. I can't keep my eyes open these days. Chasing after 2 toddlers certainly doesn't help. I also have this really terrible rash on my cheeks. It's not a good look.

lovekat614 · July 2015

I had brown discharge/spotting yesterday after work and noticed a little today this morning when I got into work. WAHH! I'm so nervous right now. My first doctor's appt is tomorrow, but I might just walk in after work today.

LMMama · July 2015

I had such a hard time falling asleep last night even though I was exhausted. I'm tired of feeling like I never actually wake up at work all day! I feel like a zombie.

bbax44 · July 2015

Feeling like a zombie today too, i was up at 3 had to pee and was starving, then couldn't fall asleep for an hour. But last night before dinner i got really nauseas and had to lay down. Hoping today goes better, but i woke up nauseas and hungry again at 8. I have a busy day.. i don't get to nap today and these nips are so sore/tender.

BabySeaTurtles · July 2015

Even with my first pregnancy, I have been one of the lucky ones with absolutely no nausea, no morning sickness, nothing...
...until today....
Now the toilet and I know each other a little better. Morning sickness really blows.

Kiek · July 2015

Finally starting to feel better during the day but the ms has been kicking my butt all night. It doesn't help with the fatigue. Also, heartburn has started. I never had that with my daughter. It is unpleasant.

MamaFroFro · July 2015

MS plus a head cold. I'm about ready to lose it.

jennymack79 · July 2015

I keep having dreams about telling people I'm pregnant. Last night it was a bunch of work people and we spontaneously when to Six Flags. I had to tell them all why I wasn't going to ride any roller coasters.

Side note: Doc's office called Monday and told me they want me to take a 1 hour glucose test next appointment (12 weeks) because my levels were slightly elevated.

This makes me a bit scared.

Strange dreams every night!! So weird, lol

camusoh2011 · July 2015

I keep waking up very congested. I think it's time to break out a humidifier or something.

kayjay44 · July 2015

I don't know how much sleep is enough sleep, but 4 hours isn't it.

This! So bizarre. Long-ass dreams about 'huh?'!

I woke up well over an hour late, super exhausted... And so very happy to be greeted by nasty nausea after having had a ho-hum weekend of nothing much in the way of nausea. Last night it was building again, and today it's stronger than ever. I know it doesn't necessarily evidence a perfect bean, but it sure does comfort me nevertheless. Cheerily sipping my ginger people ginger soother before I eventually haul my booty to work. <:-P

ETA a correction to autocorrect

Shatzegirl · July 2015

Up almost every hour peeing last night & had crazy vivid dreams. I'm laying here hoping the nausea won't be as bad as yesterday. My hips are achy today, too.

jennpar21 · July 2015

@magnumJ 4 definitley isn't near enough I need about 10 right now, so sorry for you!

In last night's dream I was back in high school at a swim meet, pregnant, competing with swimmers who were 4-6 years behind me in school, plus some that were actually on the team with me. And I had to explain to my coach that I couldn't compete because I was pregnant... oh yeah - and I was my current age...

everything else seems pretty par for the course - I didn't have to get up to pee / wake up feeling nauseous once during the night... win!

Life is Exciting · July 2015

@magnumj - you captured how I feel today perfectly.

jennpar21 · July 2015

So sorry ladies @Life is Exciting and @MagnumJ I am not tired today like yesterday, I just keep feeling the urge to keep my trash can close by, I'd rather not throw up at work.

oxsarah7ox · July 2015

Sleeping is not my friend. This waking up every few hours is for the birds. Hoping you ladies get more sleep as well! Ive also been blessed with headaches recently.

paytonpedro · July 2015

First let me say, I'm just here to complain! Lol. ugh! This fatigue is literally killing me. It took every ounce of energy I have to get up and come to work this morning and I'm about falling asleep. My energy level is literally zero. Everytime I roll over at night it literally feels like my boobs are going to explode, they hurt SO bad. And this morning my nausea has been at an all time high. 6w 5d. I want to crawl in a hole.

wisco29 · July 2015

I feel like absolute crap. I keep thinking maybe if I just barf I'll feel better but I know it's not true

katieashley13 · July 2015

I feel so sick. So exhausted. Cramps. Irritability. Crying.

I'm not sure I'm leaving the couch today. I'm just thankful that I'm a teacher and I can spend this first tri on the couch when I need to.

brushesnbrunch · July 2015

I got to experience the little stabs behind my belly button last night while trying to fall asleep. Still tired most of the time and eating is still a struggle.

LEAA14 · July 2015

Went to bed before 8:00 last night and STILL exhausted today (not to mention nauseous). When I told DH that I was feeling worse today than yesterday, he said I shouldn't be since I got about 10 hours of sleep (I guess he didn't notice I was awake half the night). I had to resist the urge to throttle him and scream "I. AM. MAKING. A. HUMAN. BEING!!!!!!!"

FreshBakedBrownies · July 2015

8 weeks today, I don't really feel nauseated, just sort of icky and constant uterine pressure. For the icky/slight nausea feeling, I'm trying to see if taking my B vitamin supplement twice a day instead of once a day helps. I think it might?

For the constant achy pressure, just in case it's cramps, I'm trying to stay better hydrated. But no beverages taste good! I love iced tea, but I've given it up due to the caffeine. Juice tastes too sweet. Somehow my water is stinky. I don't think it really is stinky, but everything is smelling these days.

B/c of nausea and sheer exhaustion - I haven't gotten much thesis work or housework done the last few weeks. My thesis advisor (one of very, very few people who knows) was great and is OK with my stretching out our initial plan for deadlines. But at home I've had to bite my tongue a few times for not wanting to make dinner, not getting much work done, etc. I may stay in bed until 9am, but this whole making a human being thing takes a crap ton of energy!

I'm not a puker so I was wondering about this. I thought if I just let it go I might feel better.

I really want to puke and feel better right now! Yesterday I felt so good, today totally nauseous!

kayjay44 · July 2015

Ginger Altoids FTW! My nausea is at least manageable.

balancedinnovation · July 2015

Had MS the first few weeks, peeing a lot the last couple. MS has stopped, but extremely tired and sore boobs. Dreams have occurred off and on, but when they do they have been pretty weird.

If I could just get to the car... 6 more hours until dh is home. I.just.cant.wait.

Mine were left over from last time... With DD, I couldn't even stomach them.

pbtoast · July 2015

All day I've been oscillating between being unbearably nauseous and ravenous. Currently all I can think about are tacos. Researching where I want to get tacos from when I leave work (because it's not like I'm going to make them)!

veelauren93 · July 2015

I feel you on the heartburn girl!! Never fails.. every time I lay down to fall asleep it comes creeping up. It's terrible, annoying, and last all night long. Stay strong!! @Kiek

ecmb · July 2015

I feel blegh in general. Mildly nauseous to the point of uncomfortable. Super tired but I have work to do.

Crazy ass dreams in between getting up to pee. Last night I dreamed both that someone was trying to kill me (slit my jugular with a knife) and then that I was watching an awesome synchronized swimming performance by some chubby swimmers. Weird.

Edited for typo. Can I go home now? Ugh.

brushesnbrunch · July 2015

My food cravings are through the roof right now. My lunch idea changed 5 times in 5 seconds.

jenniv82 · July 2015

All i want to do is sleep, but get hit with insomnia every night. Toss and turn and end up with 3-4 hrs of sleep a night. Not sure if its the hormones or lack of sleep, but im an emotional mess. Either want to cry or yell. But the worst is the constipation (tmi). I've tried everything to try and get some relief. Ugh

kdlinmg1 · July 2015

Out of nowhere I have had abdominal pain all day, not a cramping feeling though. Laying down is the only thing that makes it feel better. Hoping it will go away by the morning!
