Daily Symptoms - Thursday August 20

Please post any symptoms, questions, and concerns here to avoid flooding the boards.

Good morning, ladies, how are we feeling today!

16w6d and immediately pooped after waking up, so today is already a win, haha! I have plans to go maternity shopping with my mom today...I don't have any maternity clothes yet, and I'm not sure I'm quite big enough yet to fit in them, so we'll see how it goes, but Motherhood and Pea in the Pod have outlets by her house so I figured I may as well try.

Re: Daily Symptoms - Thursday August 20

  • 18w 1 d. Had zero nausea since 10 weeks and woke up at 430 am totally nauseous and started puking! I've only puked about 4-5 times this entire pregnancy so it's a bit surprising. I know my hormones are surging right now but still not fun :(

  • 16w 6d. Constantly peeing, trouble sleeping. Today I feel like I should be much more preganant than I am. My back hurts, lifting and bending down is so much effort. STAIRS. Also my feet are absolutely killing me.
  • Still pretty nauseous but it's getting less frequent.
    Today started off pretty bad because I bought cake mix at the grocery store yesterday but I forgot eggs, and my DH didn't want to go to the store again last night so I waited until today and we went and got eggs and another cake mix! Only to get home and realize that I didn't any oil. I got so upset I was almost crying and DH started laughing at how serious I took the cake so that made me actually start crying. I went back to the store alone but I'm still pretty angry at DH for laughing at my serious cake needs.
    My cupcakes are in the oven now but until I get to eat them I will continue to angry stare at him.
  • Enjoy those cupcakes and make him wait awhile before you share! I had a cry session at dinner one night because I ordered something and realized after I couldn't eat it.

    I am less bloated/tummy pains today! I am trying not to get to obsessive with feeling movement but it is hard. I felt lots of pops on Sunday and Monday and not so much the past two days at all. I know she is still small (20 weeks 4 days.) I am looking forward to consistent moves!  
  • I woke up and did my hour workout so I am feeling really good. Normally Thursdays are the worst day of the week for me but today is great! I am energized and happy. Hope this continues for a while. I have been doing well with my workouts and eating healthy this week so I'm thinking that has a lot to do with it. My weight gain is increasing so that's been a bummer. Some days I feel so huge and others I feel not so bad. Today is a not-so-bad day. I haven't bought maternity clothes just regular clothes that are bigger. I have to dress semi casual for work so I basically wear dresses and skirts all the time. Can't remember the last time I wore a pair of jeans. Babies are moving all the time now. I am trying to learn to distinguish between which is which but they move so much. I get winded walking up and down the stairs at work but I'm doing my best to not take the elevator. I am sooooo easily annoyed and the enemy is my boss. I know it's hormones but every little thing he does annoys the crap out of me. I can't help it lol.

  • Feeling great, sleeping well (thank god), and finally feel like I'm starting to get more of a bump. Woohoo!

    Anyone else feel like they're living in baby la-la-land? I'm in a completely blissfully naive place...not worried about a thing. Reading other posts makes me think there's something wrong with me for not being more worried! Haha Oh well! ;-)
  • 17w4d- Slept like crap last night and I am finding it more uncomfortable in my bed.  I took a two hour nap and I am sure I'll be regretting it tonight, when I'm tossing and turning. Cramps and abdominal pain today.  I seem to always get mild cramping once I'm nearing the end of another week. So it's nothing new. I feel pretty good otherwise. 
  • 19w5d.. Generally going great, not really any nausea anymore. Still feel pretty tired and puffed out easily. Weird symptoms: dry hands, almost like eczma (which ive never had in my life), and SWELLING! Not in my feet.. But in my vajay! Wth!

    @Caraboonie - glad you are feeling better! Hope shopping was fun and productive. For those still nauseous - I hope it ends soon! I wonder if it being summer makes the morning sickness worse. I don't recall as many mom's with it much beyond the first week or two of 2nd tri (it was fall) of my last pregnancy.
  • 20 weeks 4 days
    Exhausted and so stressed about school and work :(....
    Back pain is no joke. Peeing all the time and even if I don't have to pee I feel like I have to. Nausea is still here and going strong making daily life so impossible i just want it to go away I would give anything.... Belly is getting bigger
  • 16w 5days. Was finally starting to feel better until today when my cold came back with vengeance :-( Today was also my last day at work as our company was shut down. I've been meeting with other companies and have a potential lead which would be a step back professionaly. Lots of tears this evening. Just torn on what is the right thing to do. Not sure if I should take a step back and have potentially more time at home with the baby or continue to pursue my career path or just choose to be a stay at home mom and find some part time work to fill the void :-(
  • I was SO allergic being out of the house today! WOW the world is full of allergens recently, I've had a little relief in my house cocoon, but out shopping with mom today was a doozy! On the upside, maternity clothes are SUPER comfortable, and make me feel like I have a bump for once! I've felt huge for weeks now, but everybody (including the saleslady at Motherhood when I first walked in in my own clothes) has been saying they don't think I'm showing, so it'll be nice to feel noticed, haha.

    Ladies who still have nausea, are you on meds? I've found I have no nausea since being on Diclegis (and am now down to 1 pill a day, but my Rx runs out soon so I'll see how I do without it!) as long as I eat often enough, I only get a little gaggy if I let myself become starving.
