Re: Weekly Symptoms Check In - 8/1/16

  • I've had a headache (maybe migraine but I'm unsure) for 3 days now. Everything seemed fine at the hospital ER with the baby on Saturday, so waiting hear from my dr on if I need to do anything further. 

    Other than that, trying to accept my growing ass but enjoying my now bigger belly.

  • I feel like my hands and feet are constantly huge from swelling. I have been wearing flip flops to work and I'm just waiting for my boss to say something. And DH makes fun of how I get out of bed and roll over. It's starting to get on my nerves.
    @BmcD2016 Hope everything is ok! Headaches/migraines are the worst! 

  • I just started noticing the swelling on my feet and I freaked out lol. I am also feeling mild cramping (could it be mild contractions?) not sure but I see my dr next week and will bring it up. I am not too worried about it because it's not a harsh pain and no other side effects, it's just  there enough for me to notice.

  • (Hi! newbie here)

    My feet are swelling something fierce. Even with my sit on my butt, A/C going strong, office environment my feet are swelling and really hurt to walk around. They don't always look super swollen but walking to the bathroom or to get water is painful about half the time. 
  • No swelling and no BH yet thank goodness. Just headaches and weird aches and pains throughout the day that come and go. My husband things it's weird that I'm constantly hurting somewhere new every day but honestly, something new does hurt every day!
  • @MrsMaryK2016 - Agreed, my DH says the same to me... are you sure this is normal? yesterday it was "insert new thing" and today is "insert yet another new thing". It's interesting how much the body changes.

  • Awful carpal tunnel in my wrists (and they don't get much rest since I'm a seamstress). Hands and feet swelling, and nausea and morning sickness. Still, you ask? Only in the second trimester. Glad I am not sick every single day. Enjoying the movement of my boy. 
  • The newest thing is that I cannot seem to eat more than a few bites at a time anymore. I've gained 8 pounds the entire pregnancy. I haven't gained weight in a month and a half. If I do eat as much as I'm supposed to, I end up feeling extremely full and very sick like I ate an entire Thanksgiving feast by myself by about 7pm. It's an awful feeling. Sweet pea is growing perfectly and is even measuring five days ahead, it's just that everything is going to him. My OBs and midwives are wanting a 25-35 pound weight gain, but at this rate it's not seeming likely to happen.

  • I'm pretty uncomfortable this week. Baby doesn't seem to steadily put on weight/length. Instead he seems to grow rapidly and then plateau, grow rapidly and plateau and I'm pretty sure we're hitting another growth spurt. My abdomen is super sore and my skin feels stretched to the max and I'm achy all over. It's starting to make me super grouchy and I seriously considered staying in bed today (especially since it's raining and is supposed to all day). Some days I really love being pregnant. Some days (like today) I'm ready for it to be over.
  • Hi all. 25 weeks today. Backaches have been bothering me for a while. I am seeing a physical therapist  and chiropractor to manage the discomfort. It is getting better but there are days when I am ready to get this baby out!
  • I'm 25 weeks and loving feeling the baby move. However the newest crazy body thing is swelling. I switch sides several times through the night because my bottom arm goes numb and i wake up to sausage fingers and toes. I'm a massage therapist so I'm concerned about how my work will be affected over the coming months. 
  • This week has been rough! I've been dealing extreme heartburn/acid reflux/indigestion, contractions, headaches, being more fatigued then normal and if I walk for more then a few minutes my feet swell pretty bad... But my GD test came back negative and I'm no longer anemic so trying to stay positive because to be honest I'm over being pregnant already!
