Is anybody else's ears feeling like you're on an airplane and can't get them to pop? It's done this in my right ear most of the pregnancy. I'd like to be able to hear out of my right ear. I'm glad it's not both!
I AM SO ITCHY. I broke down and took benadryl last night (which I don't like to do because it messes up my sleep) because I could not. stop. itching. Ugh.
Not my hip but my left growing/pubic bone area is getting more and more sore. It is painfully to turn at night and specially in the morning when I get up.
@Taylor72 That reminds me...I wake up almost every morning with a "bloody" nose...it doesn't actively bleed, but every morning when I blow my nose its bloody mucous. Ugh.
Also while walking around today it feels like this baby is about to fall out of my vag. I'm about 90% sure she's breech because pretty much ALL of the movement I feel is below the belly button, so I'll bet shes just dancing on my cervix all day.
(I'm sure she'll be moving like a maniac today since I am downing coffee this morning thanks to my 4 hours of broken sleep last night, bah.)
My vag is splitting into two parts! Didn't have this experience with DD, so its difficult to deal. This pelvic pain is real, especially after sitting for long periods.
Seems a bit early but I've had the urge to start nesting the past two days. Gave in.l a bit this morning and organized DD's closet and got her old clothes together. My mom is going to come spend the day in a couple weeks to organize them into boxes according to size and get other baby stuff out and organized. Guess it's a good thing to get a head start because things are going to be crazy with school basically up until baby girl arrives!
@Ekzerr same here! my nesting urge has been strong the last month. I've thrown out/donated about half the stuff we own the last few months. The house cannot get clean enough!
@davis7912 I was going to post about ridiculous pelvic pain this morning, too. I can hardly walk it's so bad! I can't describe it, but it's like a pinching/pressure feeling in my whole vag. Like, is my baby strangling my cervix or something?? I almost need a walker to get around.
ETA: Someone described it as shin splints on my pelvis. YES!
I got some lightning crotch action going on and each bolt of pain it feels like the baby is doing to drop out. I can't believe there is still 3 more months of this to go, ugh!
Nesting! I've been getting rid of so much.. 4 big garbage bags of my clothes, tons of party favor/Happy meal type toys from DDs room.. recycled a bunch of papers from the mail drawer.. sorted a large bag of DDs clothes to give to a friend.. DH even pulled out furniture to Swiffer the dog hair and washed all the windows today
I don't have the nesting bug, but I caught it way earlier (before the new year). Hopefully I catch it again after the baby shower because I will have lots to organize in the nursery. Although that stuff usually is more fun for me.
I am finding it harder and harder to eat dinner. I wake up starving in the morning sometimes because I just go without dinner the night before. I feel so miserable trying to eat, it's like there isn't any room.
@Taylor72 I agree I'm starving at breakfast, hungry for a mid morning snack, eat a smaller lunch so I don't feel gross, and a small snack at 3:30. And most nights I am still not really feeling hungry for dinner and eating very small quantities. It has been challenging to adjust because I love food and want to eat more, but just don't have the room.
@Dax28 Me too! Every day every morning with out fail. I literally have to role myself out of bed like a beached whale other wise the pain is horrible !
Ugh. I'm recovering from norovirus and now my body decides it would be a great time to have RLS. What fresh hell is this? I need to rest and get my energy back

I actually don't have the feeling full problem in the evenings. Instead I'm just starving every morning and then every couple of hours, probably why I'm gaining so much weight. But I need ALL the food! Also my stupid tailbone pain came back and walking and bending is very painful. I guess I'll see if it continues to Monday and then perhaps call the doctor. But I'm not sure if I call my OB or someone else.
The mid to upper back pain today is un-freaking-real. I understand the lower back pain and I get that as well but my upper back has been sore for days and today it's just awful. I keep trying to stretch or push something into it but it's not working.
Anyone have a good remedy for ridiculous heartburn/indigestion? And how many Tums are too many? At this point, even water is giving me heartburn. Just a little bit of ice cream is the only thing that relieves it right now, and, unfortunately, I cant eat ice cream all day.
@rachelmiller03 I get it really bad as well it seems like just from breathing some days. I've found the only thing that relieves it for me it's really hot water with a lot of honey in it. Only downside, if you're prone to bad hot flashes, it can set them off.
@rachelmiller03 I don't know. I used to stop drinking water in the evenings to help, but then I was reprimanded and told I need to stay hydrated regardless of what it does to my heartburn. Which is frustrating. Because if I can't sleep, how is that better than dehydration? Catch-22 I guess. I am sleeping elevated on a wedge though. It helps at night. During the day I'm just trying to choose foods that don't give me crazy heartburn. Easier said than done.
My BH contractions started at 12 weeks this time around. They are always noticeable and painful. But, they are getting really bad. Like the BH contractions I am having are just about as painful as normal contractions. Is that normal? They are debilitating. What do I do?

I wish nesting would be one of my symptoms right now - so much I could do but ZERO motivation.
I am just dealing with very achy hips and peeing ALL THE TIME!!
