Daily Symptoms - Friday August 21st

I had something to post here so I figured I'd start today's thread...

I experienced my first Braxton Hicks on Wednesday, which was an interesting sensation, but I didn't think anything of it. That night I ended up sleeping on my back, but the next day (and now continuing to today) I've felt significantly decreased movement from the babe.

Has anyone else experienced something similar? I have my 20 week appointment on Monday, but I'm afraid to let it go the weekend if something really could be wrong. Am I just being paranoid or is this a legit concern?

    I wouldn't worry too much (you're going to worry no matter what) I have also noticed after sleeping in certain positions she gets less active or I can't feel as much of her Activity. I was told that sometimes they just curl up in a comfy position and Will hang out there for a while, due to having so much room still there are options

    @andimegie325 I wouldn't worry about decreased movement at this time. There's so much room in there your baby could just be facing your back in which case you really won't feel much of anything.

    For the last month or so my face has been so rough. It feels like sandpaper everytime I put my moisturizer on. It's such a weird, uncomfortable feeling. Its not acne, just rough to the touch. At first I thought it was the Aveeno daily scrub that I'd just gotten so I stopped using that and it hasn't gone away! This is definitely something that I didn't experience with ds.

    ETA for clarity

    17w on the dot today! Remember how I was complaining about diarrhea a couple days ago? Well apparently I combated that TOO well, since now I have the worst constipation. I have no plans today, so I'm going to spend the day attempting to make myself poop. Glamorous pregnant  life!

    I'm 17 wks +4days! Very loose stools all week and headaches. I don't remember pooping so much with #1! My stomach/digestion is such a mess this time! Can you take probiotics when pregnant? My ob had me stop taking mine, and I was wondering if there was a reason?

    The babe is kicking SO MUCH. I went from not being able to feel anything to it never stopping! Right now she's doing acrobatics in there or something. It's such a weird sensation.

    21weeks today! :)

    I thought I saw it wrong when the app told me the size is now 10.5 inches! That's quite a jump.  I honestly feel really good most days, I have been a little more tired this week than usual.

    18w 6d today...
    I have the same symptoms almost every day... I'm very very tired yet I can't sleep. Something else is that I'm not really that hungry... Like ever. Even when I am hungry I don't feel like eating. Of course I make myself eat because I have to.

    I have been feeling a little tension in the uterine area but I would that that's probably round ligament pain or my ute stretching.

    I really hope I'm not getting sick but I'm feeling terrible. Neck, back and head all hurts. Nothing is working. I'm just trying to get through this work day. Just praying I feel better. Any advice is greatly appreciated

    I was watching tv with DH last night, his hand on my belly like usual and he goes "wow. It got really hard". So I poked at my belly and realized Braxton hicks were happening. (I really hate those things. They're annoying).
    Yesterday DH also said to me "you're getting bigger", While was changing. My little bump, is starting to fill out an not be so little any more.

    As far as symptoms go. Not having much. A slight headache today.

    All day long I can think "man I wish DH was home, I'd really like some alone time with him". But as soon as we're laying down in bed at night, I don't even want him to touch me. I just wanna go to sleep.
    This all of a sudden started happening about a week ago.
    I usually want to have sex. But now I don't even want DH to think about it.
    It's kinda making me frustrated because I would really like that time with DH, especially before baby gets here.

    Had a mini asthma attack last night when I was sleeping from a bad headcold I have and then woke up with a bad charlie horse in my left calf. One hot mess. :-(

    Good afternoon and happy friday. I went to the bathroom first thing so score!

    My belly is definitely out there, while brushing my hair this morning I pulled down and hit my belly with the brush
    :(. Totally startled me and I'm a little freaked out! I can't imagine the worrying that will come in January, I have been stressed about this belly hit all morning!

    @linds514 not sure why you were told to stop taking probiotics, but you can get probiotics from food you are allowed to eat like yogurt, kefir, miso soup and kimchi (and also other pickled foods the fridge section), olives in brine (not canned or jarred but from a barrel or from a cold foods bar).
