    Mine is I am so over travel I feel like a walking needy pharmacy when I travel I bring a body pillow my regular pillow my fuzzy blanket and all of my don't puke remedies. Then when people say, " wow you brought all that?!" Shut it! I'm not going to pleasant if I can't sleep and with crappy relaxin messing with already present sciatic and hip issues the pain is real and if you don't want me medicated and pukey the don't complain! Ugh!

    DD (almost 2) was sick with a fever and stuffy nose for 4 days. We missed Christmas Eve with family. She slept every night on my chest so she could breathe better and because she was so miserable. Now I have it. Praying I get better quickly and DH doesn't get it so we can celebrate New Years Eve with friends and enjoy a little bit of winter break!

    My roommate got me sick, nothing like having a sore throat that you get to aggravate five times a day by throwing up on top of it. Upper respiratory illnesses and morning sickness SHOULD NOT be able to coexist. My other roommate keeps drinking my coffee and eating my food, which I don't mind sharing, but she doesn't help pay for any of it so it's extra frustrating now while we are saving for baby.

    @stellaluna14 and @holly142 did you two see the thread about being pregnant and sick. I can't link since I use the app but there were several approved remedies people have tried and used!

    @Lindsayleigh1989 yeah there was some good information there but I'm still riding out the tail end of it. I've used about every natural remedy in the book haha. They help with symptoms temporarily but this particular sickness has been vigilant! It just won't let go haha. Although I started taking unisom last night, and while it did make me into a zombie, I think the good night's rest did me some good.

    @Lindsayleigh1989 thank you for this thread

    @stellaluna14 and @holly142 and others dealing with sickness... Praying you all get better soon!

    Everyone slept so bad last night, so my 1.5yo was throwing the biggest tantrums all day. We then went to church where she played at the nursery like a champ but then threw one of those head flailing back tantrums all the way to the car.

    TW gross: Then when we were in traffic my 3yo threw up twice and there wasn't anywhere to stop basically until our house 10-15min from there. I had to roll the window down to avoid also puking and it was so cold. The water has been broken in our cabin for almost a week so now I have to either go somewhere to do laundry and bathe her or idk what.

    I hate flying because everyone on the plane and at the airport is always sick and the whole place is a WAY too tight cesspool. I wear rubber gloves and a surgical mask and everyone thinks I'm crazy, but I think it should be airline policy to require anyone coughing or sneezing to wear a mask instead. Or maybe we should just all wear masks on the plane since the air is recycled and we each have about 3 square feet... We made it there and back okay, but the masks and gloves and sanitizer and wipes were used like never before! I was like Monk, maybe worse. Ugh travel by plane is THE most miserable!

    I still use accetomenaphine for head and body aches and baths have also helped me too! Oh and jolly ranchers for sore throat and nausea and ginger ale for upset stomach :)

    Anyone else having terrible pain in hips Lower back and thigh when sitting or laying? I'm thinking it's relaxin easing my ligaments but it's awful it makes sleeping so difficult I already use a body pillow and heating pad for short periods of time and accetomenaphine. Any other people have this or ideas to help?

    @noelietrex I hate thinking about the germs, especially around the crowded times.

    @Lindsayleigh1989 my hips have been super sore and tight. I use so many pillows. I end up having to stretch and kind of pop my joints for it to feel ok.

    Yay we finally got water back at our house!!!! Bath time for everybody.

    @Lindsayleigh1989 my whole body has been sore the past week in totally unexpected ways. A lot of it is probably traveling and uncomfortable sleeping arrangements (looking at you air mattress) but I somehow managed to pull the muscles in between my shoulder blades the other night while I was sleeping. I'm blaming the relaxin.

    I am having the hardest time sleeping. I base this on the fact that I can not get comfortable due to bloating, back and hip pain (same as @Lindsayleigh1989) and on my snoring DH. Also I have to complain about people not capitalizing "I" when referring to yourself. I am not the grammar police by any means but come on people!

    @Lindsayleigh1989 **raises both hands*** my hips have been so uncomfortable the past week and half. Sitting at work hurts and I cannot get comfortable while laying in bed, I'm still trying to figure out how pillows and my snoogle will help. When I stand/ walk for to long my lower back and hips just hurt so much. I have a big curve with my spin to my butt and it just makes walking so uncomfortable after a short time standing up. This is going to be a long seven months!

    @elenabrent I'm wondering if travel is part of my problem too!

    Here is a link to some of the stretches I do before bed or if I have pain in the night. There are some great YouTube videos as well if you search for sciatic stretches as it is all the same area roughly.

    I also use a foam roller but know I need to do it more religiously maybe some yoga to really help. Glad I'm not crazy but sorry you all have it too!

    @Lindsayleigh1989 I just looked up the link you provided. Looks good except the first one. I take bar method and they no longer allow me to do the cobra stretch and haven't since the day I found out I was pregnant.
    You might want to skip that one.

    @Natinat6 You said Bar Classes, and it made me sad reminiscing about a different kind of Bar.

    @Lindsayleigh1989 I'm better now! Thought it was mornin sickness until I was still throwing up at 6PM. Got super dehydrated. Was slightly annoyed that they didn't check on the baby but since they weren't concerned I guess I shouldn't be either!

    @Lindsayleigh1989 all the hip pain! Sleep has become a painful experiance. I wasn't expecting this until I was bigger, so I was just attributing it to my bed. Sorry to hear others are in this same boat! I guess now I get my pregnancy pillow!

    I've been sitting in the GD mother-effing Kansas City airport for over 3 hours and our plane still isn't here!!!! Delay bs. They should give me lots of cookies and hot cocoa for this crapola, but they won't. I'll just get a chincy bag of peanuts.

    Had to get that out there. ::whine over::

    I have my neurology appointment tomorrow to discuss my headaches. I am super annoyed the OB sent me to neurology in the first place. I had these same headaches last time I was pregnant. It just seems like a waste of everyone's time. I know they are just being cautious but seriously what is the neurologist going to do for me? They can't give me any meds and they can't scan me. Ugh I am just annoyed.

    @Taymiller Me too! Our plane was delayed through Dallas. I'm never cheaping out of a direct flight again!!!

    Also feeling extra annoyed bc we have some friends (not close friends) who invited themselves to stay with us this week and thought that arriving an hour after us would be "perfect"!!! Not perfect. Tired, annoyed, pregnant!

    I'll be better tomorrow once we're all settled and I have my sweet puppies back to snuggle!

    Having the pups back will help! Having house guests right after you get back sucks. Hope you get some rest soon :)

    It's actually a really nice shirt and one I've wanted for a while. But I wasn't hearing it given he was about three screw drivers deep on my favorite holiday. Not drinking is harder than I anticipated if I'm honest.
