    I've gotten them at Target, and the grocery store. 


  • I have nausea pretty much round the clock at this point plus sore boobs. They have already gone up in size that my bras don't fit. The ginger candies from Trader Joe's and bubble water have really been helping me get through the nausea. 

    Whats bothering me most oat has been exhaustion. I basically go to work and come home and am asleep by 6:30pm. I maybe wake up for an hour around 10 and then right back to sleep. My boss is starting to notice how exhausted I am. 

    @Breath_Easy92 @margareth I really struggle with anxiety too! Life without coffee, xanax and running is tough. My doc already said no exercise because I'm high risk the only thing I can do is walk and I'm too tired at the end of the day. 

    @HollyGolightly09I stopped my Zoloft too, I'm still back and forth if it was the right decision. Do you think you'll start again in the 2nd or 3rd trimester?
  • @towntowns  If I start feeling like I need it I will. I feel like at that point, the stress of anxiety would be more harmful than the meds.

  • STM+ - Have you noticed sore ab muscles this time around?  I didn't have it with DS, at least not this early.  I was really really active last week- a 5k and walking all around Disney- but I feel completely normal as far as that goes.  I'm not in excruciating pain, but it's definitely noticeable!

  • OMG y'all... the nausea is so much worse tonight. Any suggestions? 
    My nausea is at its worst at night! I'm going to start  eating a smaller dinner.

    I know everyone says it's took early for RLP but I swear that's what it is. My fiancé does in home care for a woman who is a retired midwife and she said with second/third/etc pregnancies your body starts to get ready sooner because it already knows what to do.

    Woke up today with soooooo much bloat. Ended up wearing a dress to work today. Boobs are sore, but that's it for now. 4wks 4days. 
  • @daniellelynette I first thought I was pregnant because of the dreams I was having the week before my BFP, they were so vivid, and they were all sex dreams with the most inapppropriate people. For example: my ex, a girl from the show west world, and my PASTOR!!!!! Eeeeek! I will say my pastor is a 37 year old attractive man but still! He's always been only a platonic friend and now I can't even look him in the face!  :o
  • @lap018 I have similarly inappropriate dreams while on Whole30...except that it's me eating a grilled cheese inappropriately :lol:

    Ok...Westworld.  Holy camoley what a crazy show!

  • @sableeg yes that show is sooooo good and also so messed up lol
  • Omg I feel like my hormones are totally jacked!  It's like PMS on steroids.  I get mad so easily and I can't stop. I know I shouldn't be getting mad but I do. I kinda feel like a terrible mom and wife. I hope this stops soon!

  • I just choked on my own puke, and then puked the whole way from living room to bathroom. I can tell this pregnancy is going to FUN!!! I was hardly ever nauseous with my son. This is going to be a whole new world for me. Hopefully it doesn't last!
  • @sableeg @lap018 Did you see where the second season of Westworld isn't coming out until 2018? So frustrating!


  • @amandarene112 say what?! That's so long!  I'll have forgotten all about it by then!

  • @amandarene112 what!!!!!! NOOOOO!! I have something else to add to "why my pregnant self is crying" why on earth are they waiting so long? That's insane, although I did hear this was the show to keep HBOs viewership up when GOT ends so maybe they are waiting for the last season of it? Who knows but that's crazy! I'm so mad! I would be happy if it came out all year long lol 
  • 4.5 weeks here and feeling like I'm suffering from major pregnancy brain. I didn't think it would start so early but man am I having a rough time. Anyone else?
  • 6w3d and starting to feel some mild nausea.  No vomiting, though.  Question about Unisom and B6: doesn't Unisom put you to sleep, so the only time you could really take the combo would be at night?
  • @jenn0620: are you a "polar bear" i.e. did you go to Bowdoin College in Maine?!  :)
  • I actually became extremely paranoid because a had a couple entirely symptom free days. So I ran about and bought another pregnancy test to ease my mind and the lines appeared immediately and dark. I need to quit worrying so much. 
  • @Msashley2010 I did that yesterday. And mine was only a few symptom-free hours, not days. I need to get control of myself. :grimace:


  • I feel like I am two different people... one day I'm happy and feeling totally normal, no symptoms at ALL, then the next day I've got ALL the symptoms, the nausea, the MOOD SWINGS, the cramping and the crazy dreams and the shortness of breath... DH can't keep up lmao. This is strange.

    Yes! I was put on diclegis during my 2nd PG, but dr told me to start with just taking it at night since it can cause tiredness but if nausea doesn't go away then to take a dose in the am. Not sure how much it differs with the unisom and b6 but when I read up on it before I started diclegis i read to take it at night. 
  • Has anyone been told by their OB to try vitamin B for slight nausea? Mine comes in waves so she suggested this. Definitely not bad enough for medication yet (been there). Also she said there are vitamin B candies or something at babies r us to help with that too (not sure if she was referring to preggy pops?). So I started vitamin B today hoping it'll help.

    Yes. I took it at night every night.  The unisom didn't seem to make me extra tired or anything and I was so sick with my last one, I don't think I would have cared. 




  • @ashley2824  I got some B6 yesterday.. it does seem to help a little. Just not sure how much to take a day.

    Omg DH won't stay away from mine.. he falls asleep with his hand on one! Only my nipples are sore, but I do feel maybe they are more full and firmer (=bigger?) Idk.

  • @ashley2824  I got some B6 yesterday.. it does seem to help a little. Just not sure how much to take a day.
    My doctor told me 25mg three times a day. 


  • The B6 vitamins I got come in 100 mg tablets, and they're very small.  I wonder why it's best to take 25 mg three times a day as opposed to 100 (or 75 mg) once a day?  I guess I'll have to cut them, but they're very small as is...
  • OMG @Sugargirl1019 I'm dying laughing! :lol:

  • @margareth  Mine are 100mg, too. That's all they had at WalGreens. I guess I'm going to try breaking them.

  • I feel so blah and like I can't do anything productive. Not to mention I've felt so much more weak and emotional. I never knew the first trimester of pregnancy was so hard, though once I see the heartbeat (God willing!) I'm sure it'll ease the unpleasant symptoms and offer a huge psychological boost. I'm guessing many -- if not all -- of you feel the same way! 
  • You guys I just feel awful. I am working full time as a teacher and am so crabby. I'm exhausted and just feel sick. I don't know how I'm going to do this. I really feel overwhelmed.
  • @wellhithen I'm sorry you're feeling so exhausted and overwhelmed. Be sure to take some time for yourself and try to get to bed much earlier than normal. You're allowed to take warm baths to soothe and help make you sleepy!
