Re: Symptoms. Complaints. Random 8-1&2

  • Idk if it's all because I didn't take my 1/2 unisom last night that's totally messing with my entire body or the fact that the zofran is making me constipated but even with zofran I'm throwing up and feel miserable today!

    Thank gosh it's the weekend and h is home to empty my bucket!

    Dd is carrying around a different bucket sticking her head in and sticking out her tongue. Maybe that's what I look like to her, she's at least making it entertaining for me.

  • I slept like crap last night and just overall feel yucky today. Going to try to get some cleaning done then probably lay around the rest of the day!
  • I'm constantly hungry for the last 2 days, i will eat and never be full. I'm off my progesterone supplements so that's great. I'm still nauseas, probably more nauseas more often than before..and i thought when i hit 12 weeks that would ease up. Nope. I got some cocoa butter today to start using to prevent stretch marks as best i can..
    We're going to the kenny chesney and jason aldean concert tonight, excited!
  • I slept really good last night, first time in about a week, until my husband got up at 3 am to go fishing, and forgot to turn the alarm off. So, after he left, it loudly woke me and my 5 year old up!

    Still nursing a 3 day migraine, but overall doing okay!!!

  • Finally experienced the insomnia you all have been talking about last night... I flipped from side to side all night, and every time I'd fall asleep, I'd wake up a bit later with hip and back pain. It was awful :(

    complaint - its definitely a stabby saturday here. we had plans to go the river today and I'm so over people's inability to be on time! two friends are stuck in traffic even though i told them to leave early cause the freeway's always a mess. one friend is just late. and my husband just left his office and still will be 30 minutes. why is it so hard to stick to a schedule? ugh.. and i can't even have a beer to calm myself down while i wait!

  • OMG!!! I'm about to lose it!!! I haven't really cried or anything like that since being pregnant and it hit me yesterday!!!! I cried because I was tired. Today I cried because I found a spider in my loofah (after washing with it) I then proceeded to yell for my H but he didn't hear me! Also, he invited the neighbors over for dinner even though I have to work tonight. I tried to explain it to him that this is my morning and I don't really want to entertain guests right before I go to work! Today is just not a good day!!!
  • Posted the announcement yesterday on social media. MIL posted on her page that she's grandma (her first) then proceeded to tell people the names we have picked out. So angry about it because I wasn't planning to reveal until baby was born. X(
  • I just have a headache.

  • The kids' birthday party was today. My stepdaughter just turned 7 and my oldest will be 4 tomorrow. We always have their party together. Well, my mother has not been to one for the last 3 years because she hasn't deserved the invite. She came today as a sort of peace offering; here was a new chance for her. She gets home and posts a two pictures from the party. One of the birthday boy and one of my other son. No mention at all of my stepdaughter (who was very much celebrated today as well). Maybe it's just me being overly emotional, but it pisses me off! Why would you not include her in the pictures? Why would you not at least say something about it being her birthday too? Most of my family is great about including her since I've been in her life for the last 5 years. She is my daughter and deserves the same love and attention as my boys, especially at her birthday party!

    Wow. Not cool. I am afraid to tell anyone my names for this reason.
  • @camusoh so most definitely deserves a shout out as well and that's pretty shitty your mom overlooked her :(

    I just don't get it, especially when we come from a blended family and my dad had custody of us so my stepfamily was always very including. You'd think that being used to that dynamic that she wouldn't be treated any differently and yet here my mother is leaving her out!

  • I'm doing way better than I was a month ago, then I was almost 100% for about a week and I thought I was finally past it, but this past week has been bad again. Not as bad, but I'm still throwing up almost every day

  • @camusoh2011 - That really blows about your mom. (My stepmom was probably the most influential person in my life.) I think it's super awesome that you feel that way about your stepdaughter. Hopefully your mom will come around.



  • @camusoh2011 in total agreement with you and the ladies. That blows.

    I have a question... my newly purchased maternity jeans are fitting a whole lot more snugly than they are supposed to.

    I know that hips "settle" and shift in preparation for birth. But when is that supposed to happen?

    I am only 12.5 weeks. So I am bracing myself for the news that surviving on a diet of 100% ginger ale and ice cream is the more likely culprit here.
  • I feel like someone opened my head and filled my entire body with mud. Or lead. Something heavy. I'm so tired all the time.
  • I am mad that I had to fix someone mess up at work. It was a big mess up. I'm a pediatric nurse. At least no one got hurt and it was resolved ASAP but I want to scream at someone.
  • I can't sleep. Woke up at 3 since the damn dog was chasing something outside my window. Now my mind is going crazy about how crappy of a parent I have been these past few months comparing it to the last summer where we did everything. Trying to fill my time with cleaning however all I find myself doing is nothing. I feel like a lazy ass. Ugh.
  • I took two colace instead of just one... I hope it works and doesn't make me sick!

    Yesterday was horrible so maybe today will be better!

    :-S
  • Screw Morning Sickness! I was fine the whole of last week. I started puking again today. I don't understand why. I'm just tired of being sick. I know I should be grateful but it's hard on days like today.
  • My nipples are are super dry and itchy..anyone else getting this? I'm sure it's probably normal, but weird lol

    As for complaint I'm just gonna bitch about my mother for just a sec.. we told everyone pretty early on- this is our first and we're so excited. My mom lives out of state so we sent her flowers that said grandma, Can't wait to meet you! This is also her first grandbaby. I know she's excited but as soon as she got them she blasted it on facebook. Uhhhh thanks mom we weren't gonna do that for a while, but ok. Then she texts me and says 'we're having a baby!' Umm no..my husband and I are having a baby. Then she comes home for a few days and we go walking around buy buy baby (side note I'm OBSESSED with this store...it's amazing) and she's telling everyone in the store that we are having a baby. I was very tempted to tell her that she's not my type. I kept correcting her to everyone working there that this is baby's grandmother and my husband and I are expecting. Then she calls me every doctors appt, texts me every week to tell me the size of the baby which I already know because, again, it's my baby. It's getting annoying. When we are expecting #2 I'm not telling her until I absolutely have to. If this sounds mean, I blame hormones. Because I can.

    Sorry for the vent!!

    Maybe she's just trying to feel like a part of the whole experience since she lives out of state. I'm in the same situation, first baby and I live out of state from her. Usually I just get the whole "you should be eating organic! Eat more fiber, eat less fiber! Eat healthy but eat whatever you want!" I get where you're coming from because you don't want her to feel like she's taking over, but it's her first grand baby so hopefully her excitement will get more controlled as time goes on
  • @ashton2190 My nipples are super itchy, too!
  • Headaches! Only thing I can safely take is Tylenol which doesn't help. So now I have MS on top of a headache? ARRRGG! I am so frustrated. This is my first and I had NO idea pregnancy would be this miserable. I can't do anything fun, I lay around all day like a lump. Sigh. This baby better be cute.
  • Keep standing up too fast and getting dizzy this morning. I probably just need to eat, but that would mean I'd have to put on pants to go downstairs and that just doesn't sound appealing right now...

  • @Bfavors I'm so dizzy and weak all the time too. It's so frustrating to feel pathetic. I know my blood pressure is on the low side so I think it's that for me.
  • @Salixjoy38 I have really low blood pressure as well so that's probably it. I had a lot of dizzy spells before getting pregnant too. Guess I just chalked it up to food since I'm always so hungry when I wake up...

  • I just want to cry and punch everyone in the face at the same time. I always want to be alone lately. I've shut myself in our home office to cry over my PB&J for no reason. I feel so pathetic
  • Today I'm in mourning over the fact that school starts back up in 3 weeks and I will have to be teaching all day instead of napping :(
  • Spent three hours at babies r us yesterday. And somehow I only spent $10. BUY ALL THE BABY THINGS!!
  • @ashton2190 your story about walking around in retail land got me giggling and cringing in sympathy. Thank god for your correction since surrogate births are so high profile these days. LOL

    Maybe grandma needs a t-shirt (post 20 weeks) that warns people she is a grandma who has lost her mind with giddiness.

    If you find one of the shirts please send my own mother one as well. It is too painful to share the details but trust me, it is creepy similar.
  • Im 9 weeks + 5 and I feel FAT. Which I'm pretty sure I gained weight before I got pregnant because I don't feel like I've been eating badly at all. Nothing looks good and I feel like a whale. Plus annoying spotting. Plus I tossed and turned all night Friday night and then managed to fall asleep just in time to sleep in TWO HOURS LATE, showed up to work an hour and 15 minutes late. And then I was so freaked out last night about being late so I was up all night. And I work 12 hour shifts. Blurg.  

  • Dizzy spell in the shower and sickness and an all day head ache has left me couch status... Luckily Fixer Upper is on so I'm good! Love me some Chip and Joanna.
    Ps have almost eaten an entire bag of clementines this weekend. Can't get enough!
  • Is anyone else itchy? I have become so itchy that at times I'm having trouble tolerating it. A few nights ago, the itching was so intense I couldn't sleep. Benadryl helped but makes me so sleepy and I'm trying to use is sparingly. I've got no rash and am really hoping the itching doesn't last for the rest of the pregnancy.

  • Migraine and want to kill my husband. I went to the beach today, came home and surprise surprise he's sitting in a dark house playing video games. It's 90 degrees and sunny out! None of the projects around the house are done but he wants a medal for taking out the garbage (yet failing to replace the bag.... again)
    He didn't get a haircut and I've been nagging him for two weeks, he looks goofy and sees no problem in going to work like that. I just wish he'd get it together more!
