How are we all feeling this week? Anything new and exciting to report? Anything you wish would go away anytime now?

DrillSergeantCat · October 2016

Pregnancy induced premature ventricular contractions can go straight back to hell from whence they came!

Spartanrd4 · October 2016

Ugh discharge TMI- had to bust out the panty liners....so gross, I feel like a swamp down there.

rw3190 · October 2016

I'm tired and hungry....and not for anything remotely healthy

rw3190 · October 2016

And cramping. Anyone else with cramping??

18w 4d

kap1988 · October 2016

Lately I've been feeling pain really low like around where my legs attach to my crotch. From googling I think it might be a form of RLP but it seems really low.

rw3190 · October 2016

That's what it is....Ive had that before =( it sucks

OctoberLove13 · October 2016

Headaches. I think they might actually be allergy related but they suck.

Burrberrymum · October 2016

Braxton Hicks contractions all throughout the day.. I never had it this early and frequent with my first. Still soooooooooo sleepy, if I could, I would sleep all day.

kjd291 · October 2016

My hips are spreading way too early... doesnt my body know it has a few more months to pop this kid out? They are already so loose I can hear them pop and click as I walk.

rw3190 · October 2016

LOL mine too!! I sound like a bowl of rice crispys

datalover13 · October 2016

If I could crave something at least a little healthy to eat, that'd be great.

sunshine507 · October 2016

Leg cramps like woah. Just when I was getting energy back too.

Yes, I had a ton of cramping at 18 weeks. It went away as my uterus moved up. Now it's backaches.

lilies5/28/06 · October 2016

Alot of shortness of breath which I feel like its too soon because the baby is even that high up yet.
I have also been having a lot of cramping and braxton hicks contractions which are kinda of scary because I feel like they are starting to soon.
I'm always hot I feel like my own personal sauna.

My midwife said 16 wks is average start time for BraxtonHicks. So I wouldn't be worried!!

lilies5/28/06 · October 2016

@kjd291 Thanks, I have an appt tomorrow and was going to ask about it. All my babies were csection and I never really experienced contractions so with this pregnancy and the one before it's always werid to feel when I have them, and they feel so strong that it throws me off.

This has been me too! I thought RLP too.

and I second the hungry all the time!

aerie_star · October 2016

Hip pain and slight headaches.

dubcompanion · October 2016

@kap1988 I've been having RLP located there too. The worst is when I sneeze - I can pretty much expect a cramp right there immediately after. Ugh!

On a bright note, I only used the bathroom THREE TIMES at work today!! That's a record for this entire school-year! My bladder is acting normal for once this pregnancy.

Also, the breathlessness has greatly eased up. Wherever my kid is currently positioned, he/she is definitely welcome to stay that way.

hisqueen78 · October 2016

I've had heaviness in my uterus area today and backache so bad that I've been in bed since 6:30. Asked my hubby to rub my back but he has been busy non stop since he got home. To to it all off my DS cooked and burnt some cookies and I got a headache from the smell. I want to take off tomorrow but I don't feel like writing sub plans.

RunBooRun · October 2016

Anyone else experiencing insomnia? At least once a week I wake up around 2:30 and can't fall back asleep.

Other nights I'm out by 9pm and sleep until my alarm.

librarymom917 · October 2016

Shortness of breath, back pain and waking up and staying awake for hours in the middle of the night for NO reason. ugh. My snoogle gets here today, I hope that helps.

CanadianintheSouth · October 2016

Since I'm finally over morning sickness (or as I like to call it, 19 weeks of hell), now I am hungry all.the.time. Bring on the weight gain I guess.

MyDG620 · October 2016

I'm feeling terrible right now--throwing up all night and cramping and today I am just nauseous. Can morning sickness come back at almost 18weeks? maybe I have a stomach bug? Ugh--whatever it is, it for sure needs to go away!

Morning sickness has no end to its fury... but, if you're up all night tossing your cookies, I'd guess you caught a 24hr bug.

MyDG620 · October 2016

@kjd291 thank you! that's what I am hoping it is and it will go away soon.

kjd291 · October 2016

@MyDG620 No matter what it is: I hope it goes away fast and you feel better soon!!

MyDG620 · October 2016

@kjd291 you're so sweet! I thought I could make it at work and that's sure not happening so I hope once I get home I will be able to rest.

Yes! For the past 2 weeks at least 50% of the time I wake up around the same time every night and can't get back to sleep for a couple of hours. I just keep telling myself it's my body preparing me for all those middle of the night feedings!

kjd291 · October 2016

I am 22weeks, STM! and finally just feeling real baby kicks! Gosh, that took forever compared to baby #1. Maybe this means baby will be easy and mellow?? ...one can hope right?

babyisthenewblack · October 2016

Shortness of breath bordering on embarrassing, jaw pain on one side, bizarre dreams that wake me up and keep me up for hours and a bump that's noticeable enough that work have congratulated me!

babyisthenewblack · October 2016

@kjd291 I've been able to feel this LO for a while, I guess it means you have a mellow one and mine is wild!

We'll see if it changes over the next couple months! It's pretty amazing what personalities you can see just from the womb!! I have lots of friends and family say their mellow babes moved less and the wild child kids danced their mamas crazy! My mom (4kids) said my brother (crazy wild child of the family) moved non-stop and kicked her so hard a couple times 3rd Tri he knocked the wind out of her and Literally dropped her to the ground!!

datalover13 · October 2016

@kjd291 That makes me feel better! I looked back and saw I was feeling a lot of kicks by this point with DS and I'm feeling next to nothing this go round. Definitely going with mellow kids.

Yeah! I was quite nervous the past few weeks! DD was strong kicks by 17wks, and all id ever heard was STMs feel kicks sooner, but it was definitely not true for me!

RunBooRun · October 2016

Woke up at 2am again this morning! I did fall back asleep eventually (unlike Tuesday morning), but it was restless. I have such a raging headache this morning.

Haha. I keep feeling LO moving ~20 minutes after I eat. I've been joking that this kid loves food!!

OctoberLove13 · October 2016

@kjd291 I hope the mellow child idea is true! This baby is so chill at every ultrasound. He's always sitting criss-cross-applesauce on my bladder. I haven't felt him move yet but I have an anterior placenta so that could be why. Congrats on finally feeling baby move!

chrlyr · October 2016

This kid moves around a lot (especially when I'm eating for some reason), but I haven't felt many actual kicks yet. I'm pretty sure I didn't feel them consistently until after 20 weeks with DS.

jenny0228 · October 2016

I am feeling the little flutters at 17 weeks, for the past few days, same as you @RunBooRun it's shortly after I eat. So if it's true that the baby in the womb = the baby's personality.... this LO likes to eat, then party.
