  • I'm 19 weeks &1day today. I'm right there with you with the back ache, I'm also getting bump ache aswel lol?!
    I definitely agree feeling my little one move is the best symptom Ever ;-)! So amazing, I'm a FTM xxxxxx
  • I woke up and pooped first thing, so I think it's going to be an okay day, haha. Today was SUPPOSED to be my 3D ultrasound, but a couple weeks ago my dr. had to reschedule it, so now I have to wait until Monday. I'm a little miffed, ngl.

  • 18 weeks, 3 days.
    Charley horses all night last night.
    Ouch! Along with peeing non stop.
    But baby is moving like crazy the past two days, so I won't complain too much.
    Ultrasound on Monday as well, I can't wait to see baby. :D
  • 15w, 4d today. My gums are so sore and swollen in the mornings. They bleed a lot when I brush them after breakfast. This gets better through the morning and are fine by mid-late morning. I know it's "typical" but keeps freaking me out!
    And check in with Dr tomorrow for my 16w appointment. Sometimes 4 weeks in between appointments is too much for this FTM!
  • 16+6weeks . hiccups the last 2 weeks is getting annoying . been getting them 2-3 times a day . lower back ache and round ligament pain. Nothing too major. Definitely enjoying the little movements from the baby :)
  • 18+1 today. Just light round ligament pain. Lots of peeing. No movement yet. Heartburn has decreased (but I'm on vacation, so I think that helps). Past few days I've been hungry all day and just have to keep snacking. Made the mistake of going to the grocery store hungry yesterday. Came home with ice cream, frozen mini quiches, crackers, cheese, grapes, pickles...I originally went to get milk.

    I'm feeling a lot of little kicks today! I have zero appetite though, and ended up only having a slushy for lunch. I know it's bad, but I just couldn't get myself to eat.

    I'm also feeling a lot of pressure in my pelvic area, kind of on my bladder. It comes and goes but when it comes it's pretty strong!

    Edit- I'm also 18 weeks 5 days

    18+3 today and I finally realized that what I was feeling was movement. Last night DH got to feel one little pop and was really excited!
    Tons of round ligament pain and still super sick but I don't really care as much now that I can feel him :)
  • 16w1 and had morning sickness again yesterday for the first time in 2 weeks! So disappointed!
    I burp, a lot. I can't help it.
    I'm exhausted, and it takes all I got to get through the work day and commute home! Once I'm home I cash in for the night : (
  • I forced myself to workout today. It felt good to get moving, and especially stretching, even if it was just a very easy 30 minute prenatal workout, but I'm now EXHAUSTED. I never understood people who said working out gives them energy. Even when I was extremely in shape and working out daily, I would feel completely drained after every workout...if it gives you energy don't you just do more until you're worn out? Or is that just me? It's funny now, though, because even the easiest thing makes me feel worn out...combination pregnancy and being out of shape (I admittedly did nothing all first trimester, wasn't feeling up to it).

    My family dog (since I was 12) is being put down...maybe right this second actually, and it's been emotionally hard all day...I actually don't care much about the dog herself, I was never that attached to her because I'm not a dog person, but literally a year ago from tomorrow I had to put down my family cat that became MY cat after college (we somehow kept her happily alive until 16 years old, despite having a thyroid issue for the whole second half of her life), so it's bringing up those feelings, and I know how much my mother and sister love her and so I'm feeling their hurt, and it's a bit much for me and my pregnancy hormones to deal with right now.

    Other than exercise and emotions (two of my least favorite "e" words, haha) it's just the usual hunger. I've been eating some Nature Valley bars and they seem to help a bit, although they're so durn hard that I'm nervous I'll hurt my teeth/jaw.

  • @SummerFall03 I'm 18+4 and I'm also feeling a lot of very low pressure...almost painful but more uncomfortable, I'm glad I'm not the only one! It comes & goes as well.
  • 15w4d. Sore throat and stabbing pain above my left eye. Took a Tyenol and chugging water but nothing really helping. I know it's allergies. Happens every year this same week when my family has a big event. Any tips for migraines are appreciated!!
  • @ByeByeSpotts I was getting similar headaches and chugging water non stop. I actually found that drinking half a bottle of gaterade did the trick for me. My dr said it's easy for or electrolytes to get thrown off especially in the summer heat. Hope you get some relief as well!
  • Thanks for the tip! I will try that!
