Ugh, I'm 12 weeks today and last week I was thinking that the morning sickness was finally coming to an end, boy was I wrong! I spent the hours of 1-3am in the bathroom last night. I have my NT scan this morning and I'm not even excited b/c I'm afraid I'll be sick the whole time. I also have so much to do this week and I've been counting on feeling better. Help.
I didn't take my discgle (sp?) last night and I think I am already regretting it!!! I feel like any minutes the little water I have stomached will be in the toilet
No meat shall enter this mouth - For realz, not even eggs. I'm starting to lose weight. Not horrible but my OB won't like it.
Poor DD doesn't understand why I want to sleep as soon as I finish dinner
Dreams are cray. Dreams of blood on a tissue after wiping, dreams of having another girl and I don't believe it, dreams of oversleeping and they just go on and on.
Boobs are still super tender. DD has ZERO idea that she stabs me when she gets in a chair to snuggle. Trying not to over react and remind her that it hurts.

I still have no desire to have sex. None. Well, I shouldn't say none. There was a hot second on Saturday when we were at CVS so he could get a TB shot where I was ready to go. Something about him standing outside a CVS really did it for me. But then by the time we got home it was gone. I'm being told it'll get better by the second trimester. I hate feeling like this. The best part of going of BCP for me was the increase in sex drive. Maybe I'll just have him stand outside CVS more often. Get him one of those red aprons or something.
@berg I think a lot of us feel the same way. I spotted a little after sex last time so I just don't want to because of that even though we went to the doc the next day for an already scheduled appointment and she said everything was fine and we still had the green light but I am waiting until my second trimester!
berg I feel the same way...it's been painful the last few times so it's hard for me to "want" to do it again. Plus it's hard to get in the mood when my boobs are so sore and I'm having cramping/round ligament pain.
The past few nights I have been having the worst dry mouth. Last night I woke up so many times from it I almost cried. I finished two water bottles throughout the night and there was just no relief.
@berg you are not alone. I don't even want to be touched. My boobs are so sensitive, I am afraid of spotting, or cramping, and I literally have zero (damn near negative) libido. I am really hoping this improves soon, too!

@kdanjou mine is gone! I will be 10 weeks tomorrow. My first pregnancy wasn't like this. I was sick until week 18. It makes me a little worried but I am enjoying it while it lasts.
@kdanjou mine went away at the end of week 7. I randomly vomited yesterday while I was brushing my teeth but I think that's because the toothpaste started to run down the back of my throat. I just had an ultrasound yesterday and I was 12w1d but baby was measuring 12w5d and having a party in there so I wouldn't be too concerned about it!
I've started having a throbbing pain in my vagina that comes and goes. So that's fun. And my legs itch so bad at night. It doesn't seem to matter how much moisturizing I do or whatever else. I'll be fine all day and then by night my legs just itch so freaking bad.
What is the itching about!?! I've been super itchy at night too! But like you said, lotion doesn't help, I thought it was dry skin, but nope! First timer here, I have no idea what's normal and what's not!
Do bananas help with charlie horse pain? Before pregnancy they would help.
Yes, potassium helps with Charlie horses. However, if you're constipated, bananas will make it worse. I think that Gatorade also has potassium but I'm not positive.
OMG the tears just won't stop... I'm in the office still and one of our close friends has a 2 month old with a severe CHD and just posted about how the song Rise Up by Andra Day is what is keeping her going for her trips to and from the city with specialists for her child as she is preparing for his 2nd open heart surgery at 4 months old...
ugh... ugly crying just listening to the actual lyrics and thinking about how strong she is having to be each and every day... how hard it is... I hate pregnancy hormones!!
@jennas312 for charlie horse cramps, I got those so bad during my first pregnancy... I would wake up DH is tears and screaming (esp. during 3rd tri and I was huge with twins) as I couldn't get up to stretch my calves out. My midwife told me it isn't just potassium it is our balance of magnesium and potassium, and I took the magnesium supplement that I just mixed in water called 'calm'. It actually has a slight stool loosening effect (by no means severe) on some people so it could counteract any constipation issues with bananas mentioned...
I think I'm freaking out for no reason. I just went to the restroom, and TMI (sorry) all along this pregnancy I have been having a lot of CM. This time after using the restroom, there was the smallest dot of blood in with the CM. I'm pretty sure it's nothing. I have had no other bleeding and no cramping. I called my mom and told her since my poor husband won't comprehend my concern.
Today was the day I actually left work early (only 1.5 hours early, but I was doing so good). I have had a throbbing sinus headache for almost a week and finally gave in and when to my PCP. I have a viral sinus infection. Good news = no antibiotics, bad news = it has to work it's course. I did get the green light for a few days use of Flonase to loosen everything up. A few hours later and I already feel a lot better. Hopefully in a few days i'll be back to normal pregnancy symptoms.
11 weeks this Friday Nausea kicks in around 3pm. It used to go away but now it sticks around a little and comes back full force around10:30. I also get super sleepy around 2pm. Constipation started within the last week. My skin is super dry. My gums bleed easy which is not normal for me.
So all around I'm feeling blech but I'm ok with it. Bring it on!!! The sicker I am the better right? Haha!
