Couldnt find the Symptoms thread for this week. So here we go.. Any new symptoms?

KirstinH88 · October 2016

My stomach has been SOOO itchy from the stretching.

ebloom3 · October 2016

I'm pretty sure I'm leaking pee. This happened when I was pregnant with DS, and it appears it's happening again. When I sneeze it's all over. Ugh.

Thank you @KirstinH88. Wednesday was a crazy day and I completely forgot.

Is anybody else breaking out a lot? I look like a teenager and it's gross.

Also headaches are daily.

Also: my nausea has faded immensely but I'm still gagging and dry heaving at the slightest things. With no nausea. Just gagging. What the heck. I'm worried about my dentist appointment in two weeks. Lol.

@Hgrich I have finally found a cure to the headaches! Excedrin Tension headache (no aspirin) and electrolytes! we only drink filtered water at our house, and my nutritionist cousin said to try it for headaches. Filtered water can just be too filtered and may have been depriving me of minerals that I need! not sure if that's actually what is helping, but I feel a ton better. Worth a try!

And yes to the breaking out. High school all over again.

@HGRich I hear you about the breakouts. I have huge red pimples on my forehead... Sucks!

@HGrich, I had to reschedule my dentist appointment I had set up 6 months prior as it fell right around 8 weeks and I felt miserable! No way did I want anyone messing with my mouth at that point! I rescheduled for about 14 weeks and felt "better" but during the appointment was wishing I waited longer still! I say call and reschedule yours!

HGRich · October 2016

@mylittleirvz I might have to! I'll see how the gagging goes next week. I'll be 17 weeks by the appointment and I'm holding out hope it'll go away by then!

@doozenberg good to know I'm not alone!

@SDSwenson I drink filtered too. I never thought about that. I've been drinking Gatorade along with my water this weekend and have only one headache.

I'm glad it helped @hgrich

My OB also recommended Excedrin Tension headache and it works extremely well for me!

@HGRich I have to cancel my dental appointment for this week because I knew I wouldn't make it through the appointment. I still gag so bad when I brush my teeth! Hoping to be better next months so I can reschedule!

Pinkpeonies · November 2016

Anyone else starting with Braxton hicks? I started this week, no fun! I had them ALL the time with DD!

Mama5181 · November 2016

Please tell me I'm not the only one with extreme sweaty crotch???

mrsstuessy · November 2016

@Pinkpeonies BH since 12 weeks for me. I had them ALL the time with DD as well. Just hours of them. ugh.
My face has been broken out for 3 months now and I am beyond sick of it. It might be getting a teeny tiny bit better just this week though. I definitely have a face full of scars from how horrible it has been. Thanks kid. And today I was diagnosed with SPD, so that is super fun. So much pain. This is why I will never be one of those women who just love the magical time of pregnancy. I'm sure they are not so sore that the thought of crossing the room makes them sit on the couch for 3 hours at a time. Sorry, I am just depressed over the whole thing tonight.

doozenberg · November 2016

@mrsstuessy - I'm sorry you're in so much pain, its sounds awful.
I'm starting to have more aches when I wake up from sleep. Like sore upper back, sore hip, sore lower back. I guess now that I'm heavier, being in these positions is hurting me (I sleep on my side). So I think I'll try the snoogle to see if it'll help.
Feels like I'm an old lady when I wake up

bww_0331 · November 2016

@doozenberg I've been waking up throughout the night with a sore back also. I'm still at the point where I feel comfortable laying on my stomach so i usually switch and take advantage of that. Somehow I always wake up on my back, so I'm guessing that's my body telling me to start to stay off the tummy but that's the only position that helps right now.

blessedinmt · November 2016

@Mama5181 You're not.

My desk chair is leather and I've often found that I leave a sweat spot upon standing (usually after having recently climbed the 5 flight of stairs, but still that did not happen pre-pregnancy). That's bad enough, but my PGAL brain causes me to run to the bathroom to verify it's not blood.

kitkat8387 · November 2016

@HGRich same here with the breakouts! They have been improving now that I'm at 18 weeks but it's still super annoying. I used to get the occasional pimple but not several at once, ever. And I don't know if it's just me but they all leave red marks now for WEEKS as opposed to before when it would last a few days tops. Thank god for makeup

ashleym112 · November 2016

@kitkat8387 same with the lasting red marks! I've had one on my cheek for 3 weeks. The pimple is gone but the mark will not fade at all. I woke up with another this morning. You're right, thank god for concealer!

Pinkpeonies · November 2016

@mrsstuessy sorry you are dealing with a lot of pain!

doozenberg · November 2016

I third the red pimples with lasting power. I've had a few on my face and the redness stays for weeks. I'm on week 3 for a few now
