Oh no, @mrskratt, that sounds awful! I hope you recover quickly.
We haven't had a lot of sex recently, but we've also both been falling asleep on the couch as soon as the toddler goes to bed, which has a dampening effect. I'm looking forward to the second trimester in hopes that my digestion will be closer to normal and I'll feel sexier in that way.
@Blonde1817, I hope/bet you'll feel sexier when you begin to show in a clearly pregnant way. It's hard to shake the conditioning that any expansion of the body = fat and fat = unsexy and bad, isn't it?
I took my bra off before the end of my work day because I just couldnt stand it anymore, my boobs are so sore. It's like I have an ice cream headache in my boobs. It's time for bigger bra and/or no underwire. And constipation is a real thing....even on Miralax.
We've only had sex 3 times since the BFP The first time I was nervous I would spot the whole time (I haven't yet), the second time was great, and this past time was rough because I was so self-conscious of my blump! I hope my sex drive increases in the second trimester, I've just been way too tired. Now I have more energy, but my body is changing in very unsexy ways right now. Maybe I should try for morning sex when the blump is smaller?
3 TIMES?! That's impressive! We haven't once since BFP. Not once.....in 10 weeks. Kudos to you! I'm too tired to tired. After working full time, making dinner, getting kids fed, pets taken care of, and kids ready for bed and in bed, the last thing I want to do is another chore. Sorry not sorry.
Woke up with a YI this morning. The itch and the burn is real and it's only getting worse as the work day goes on. I bought extra medicine the last time I had a YI right after BFP, so luckily I don't have to go the store for any.
Also got sick leaving for work yesterday. Had to open the car door and throw up in the driveway, so that was fun. Guess I need to start eating breakfast before I leave the house (I usually have something to eat in the car on the way).
I'm sorry for all the ladies having a much worse time than me! The flu and all the other infections are no bueno. =(

the time has come where I have finally peed my pants. I coughed in the car after court and then realized I'm wearing grey pants and prayed I didn't pee too much. GOOD TIMES.
Phew... I was starting to wonder if we were the odd ones not having had sex since January lol... whether I'm sick, asleep, too nervous or whatever excuse. Don't. Touch. Me. My husband got off work early last Friday (which is about 8:30pm) and brought flowers and took me to dinner and I think he was hoping to get some, but NOPE. I passed out as soon as we got home lol Hopefully that will all change, but he's actually really great about it.
We haven't had sex since about three days after ovulation (and my husband didn't know the "window" was closed yet). That's fine for us. Certainly I've been constipated, bloated, nauseated, etc., but we don't really have that much sex anyway. Sure, it's nice, whatever, but we have other interests and we have other ways of showing affection.
I know it's no longer Tuesday, but this has to belong here: Anyone else with nipple issues? I'm assuming what I am dealing with is dried colostrum, but they look flaky and it can be picked off/rubbed clean with a damp towel.
Anyone recommend a good nipple butter or something else?
