  • Still not feeling well when I first get up. I really need to keep food on nightstand every night. I've done more activity in the last 3 days than the last 2 months like 9 loads of laundry, getting my classroom ready, and cleaning out a basement. Super sore but it feels good to be moving!!
  • JUST THREW UP! Loving the MS at 16+4!

  • For the last couple days I have been really light headed and dizzy. I thought I was getting over MS, but that's back too. Not loving the new symptoms!

    14w2d today. And I'm fairly sure I have the flu. I'm achey, my head has been pounding, I have the worst chills and I've been throwing up for a day and a half. So I called my NCO this morning and told her that I've been sick for a day and a half, yet I still had to come into work because I couldn't go to sick call...because it's SUNDAY. Whatever. Rant, done.

    Edit: what have you all done if you've had the flu while pregnant?
  • I was nauseated while getting ready for church this morning, so I sat down for a minute. When I got up, I was extremely lightheaded so I yelled for DH. He got there just in time to catch me as I started to faint. As someone who has only ever fainted once, it was so scary! I guess I need to stand up more slowly...
    Not making it to church today.
  • 15wks today! Weeeeee. MS is gone, it really wasnt that bad actually. Mostly I had food aversion. Definitely, have a baby pot belly now. :) I gained 3lbs the first trimester and the only symptoms I've really been having are: my boobs are full like whoa, I get dizzy/light headed more often, and I am starting to get a little achy/ shortness of breath. Also, I'm hungry, now. A lot.

  • I'm 17 weeks today and haven't gotten out of bed. Yes it is 12 lol.... My explosive diarrhea has gone away I think since I took the medicine to make it last night. I'm starving however I must get up:) haha. Symptoms ... Light nausea and I have been so tired which is strange fatigue hasn't hit me so hard except for this past week which I think is strange.
  • I got up this morning and actually felt well, so decided to take the poor dog on a nice long walk. I haven't exercised in like two weeks due to sickness and DW is out of town, so I felt like she was neglected. Apparently that was too strenous as I projectile vomited during the walk! As it's a loop I had no choice but to just keep walking after. It was not pretty. Definitely also feeling the headaches, dizzyness. I'm debating if I should go to my friend's BBQ (an hour and a half away)...wouldn't want to throw up at the BBQ!

    13w2d, feeling super groggy today, but I really wanted to get some cleaning done, so I may push through it and then regret it later, haha.

    DH wakes up early on weekends to play soccer, and he brought me home a bagel and strawberry milk which I ate in bed, so I figure I can't complain about life right now.

    Update: Did the cleaning, and convinced DH to join. Now too tired to do the grocery shopping I need to do though. Can't live without my capri sun and smartfood popcorn!

    Had a little bright red spotting after sex this morning, so trying not to go into full on panic mode. I know its not uncommon at this point and it seems to have tappered off about 1.5 hours later, but waiting on a call back from my midwife for final reassurance. Anyone else have this? Am worried that might be the last time I want to have sex this pregnancy because I think I'll be too scared it will happen again, poor husband :)
  • @enkb a ton of ladies have this and just get put on pelvic rest. I wouldn't worry about LO too much, but yeah, it might cut into the sexy times. :(

  • @vvitchhazel same at 16+6... UGHHHH
  • Feeling emotional. Very emotional. An over some of the dumbest stuff. Also still no cravings or food that I want. Just lots of food I DON'T want. I'd like a craving please... Something I can stomach thinking about.

    But not more MS so there's my silver lining :)
  • Last night my boobs were on fire. Like super hot, I was so uncomfortable and they felt like they were going to explode! They are definately getting bigger!

  • Very thankful today to be keeping food down after puking all night. Feeling much better but still tired. Managed to get some cleaning done around the house in preparation of DH coming home on Tuesday! I can't wait!

  • 13w5d and I'm spotting again. I feel like I'm going to lose my mind. My dr keeps saying she isn't sure why I'm bleeding as much as I have been but whenever they do an exam everything looks great. My body is just trying to drive me insane.

    Other than the spotting I feel good. No cramping, sickness, anything. Other than the anxiety.
  • Whoever said drink more water for headaches and dizzyness is totally right. Like 12 cups per day or more. It helps SO MUCH. That is all.

  • I've had the gags all day! I'm so over this. I'm so effing tired.

    Girls with nosebleeds- I had that with DD it sucks. It's because everything is swollen and you have more blood flowing to a constricted space. I found sleeping with a humidifier and doing nasal rinses helped a lot.
  • I finally worked up the energy to go food shopping and had to rush DH out of the store at the end because I started to feel faint. I don't know how I'm gonna deal with going back to work in September, I can't seem to be active (aka normal activity of living life) for more than 30 minutes before I need to lie down...

    Unrelated, I got home and ate the most amazing plum I've ever had in my life. I hope the other 2 I bought are just as good.

    Hopefully you can get some reassurance from your mw. I got spotting from the papsmear at my first prenatal appt for a few hours. Just a few pantiliners worth. I called the nurse and she reassured me that it was normal (even though I never bleed for any previous pap smear). So maybe your bleeding is similar. 

    At 12w I developed a hematoma and that thing bleeds like pads every few hours. I got put on pelvic rest for that. Either way baby seems to be doing fine. 
  • 17w + 4d : Super itchy boobs and belly (aside from the surgery ports), nausea appears to be gone (WOOT). Still burping my brains out and still super super tired. Overall I guess I feel pretty good, but the tired wears on you. I am feeling the baby move, mostly in the evenings, so that is awesome.

    Super emotional today. Went to BuyBuyBaby to get a new car seat for DD and bawled my way through the infant boy clothes. I can't believe I'm going to have another tiny human being that I'm going to love as much as DD. I also still can't get used to the fact that I'm having a boy. I'm not disappointed by any means, I just can't imagine it.
    DH left for a work trip and and I bawled when he left. As if he doesn't already feel bad for having to leave. Crazy hormones.
    I'm sorry some of you are still vomiting. That sounds so awful.
    Edited. My misspelling was offensive. It's fixed now 8-}

    Your cervix is also softer/more sensitive than normally, so it's common to spot after sex. As long as it's just spotting and nothing more, and not accompanied by any pains/cramps it's allegedly fine. That said, feel free to contact your OB/MW/whatever to make yourself feel better because I know strangers on the internet don't always ease your mind :)

  • @apinkpelican I'm sorry your DH had to go on a business trip, whenever my husband leaves for one of those I get so upset too :( at least there's plenty of craziness on this board to keep you occupied until he gets back!
    My symptoms today are just crazy nonstop appetite (let's get weird, digital bathroom scale!) and a little lower belly soreness from getting an u/s done. My MIL is in town so even though I'm usually not for those elective ultrasounds, we did one today with her so she could see the baby and we found out it's a boy. She cried and DH is very proud of himself. Emotional day!
  • Thanks @arose3eb :) Congrats on the boy!
