I feel movement all the time now. I began to feel flutters over a month ago, but within the past couple weeks they've become consistently obvious kicks and punches. I feel him moving around in there and changing positions.
Last night everything except fruit sounded like cardboard. And that has still continued through today so far. I haven't felt like this since the first trimester. No nausea though, thankfully. My only consistent craving besides Skittles throughout this pregnancy has been fruit.
Heartburn is awful. I have stopped avoiding foods that are known to give me heartburn because everything gives me heartburn now. Including water.
Clear beads of fluid are now coming out of my nipples. It shocked me when it first happened as I felt like things were going by so quickly already but now everything feels as though it's going even faster.
My back hurts so much. Between a quickly growing baby and my gigantic chest, my poor back is feeling it. My boobs pre-pregnancy were already a 36DD. I'm now up to around a 36F. It was hard enough finding bras at a DD, now it's basically going to be impossible. I'm scared of how much bigger they're going to get if at 21 weeks I'm up two cup sizes and I plan to breastfeed.

Hormones have taken over my life. I cry constantly. Like the littlest thing will set me off. They're all things that I would be upset or angry over normally so at least it's not completely irrational but I definitely wouldn't melt down to the extent I have been if I weren't pregnant. Even worse, as I'm crying I keep thinking, "You sound crazy right now." And yet, I can not stop!
Acid reflux like crazy. It's on and off but when it's on it's like the pits of hell are burning in my throat. Zantac/tums/Roland's don't work as well anymore.
Clear liquid coming out of my nipples. It's only a little bit but it's so strange
headaches, nausea, dizziness at times. My belly button is slowly starting to come out.
Oh oh and STRETCH MARKS. My boobs will never be the same
I've recently started having terrible hip pain after standing for long periods.
Definitely feeling him kick tons now!
But I do have one awful symptom, I work somewhere where I'm required to stand for long periods. All of a sudden out of nowhere I'll feel flushed and begin sweating a lot, even when it's cool. I feel dizzy and see flashes and my ears become full, it's hard to focus. I usually have to sit and fan myself while I drink water and it subsides. I believe it might be low blood pressure, is anyone else experiencing this?
@mayergirl920 I have that happen to me. I keep an apple juice with me so if I sit down and drink a bit of that I start to come around right away. Then j switch to water for a while once I go back to standing up. I've found this has helped a lot. It's happened once so bad I almost never made it back to my desk I was pretty sure I was going to collapse. Apple or orange juice for sure.

I'll try the apple juice. I swear it always happens when I can't sit down for whatever reason. Gonna try to ear more snacks. So far it's only happeneed twice but it's pretty scary.

Forget about laughing, I officially peed myself last night. That was lovely.
I've been having a little sciatic pain which I never had before so that's weird.
And I think my boobs are still getting bigger, too! Squishing them into sports bras for working out sucks.
Also my ribs feel like they're being wrapped with a new rubber band every day!
On the upside though, baby if kicking like crazy in there and I absolutely LOVE that feeling!
