So, I was in the shower and it wasn't even got it was just normal and all of a sudden I almost blacked out. I kind of feel like my blood pressure dropped for a second but when I came back and got out of the shower I felt super naueated. Anyone know what this was or what I should do? My BP at the dr was 94/62 on Feb 7th and that was the last time it was checked. I normally run about 115/70 range.
@tyannejohn, low BP is super common in pregnancy. But you should mention it to your doctor. I think the recommendation is usually to increase your salt intake!
Horrible metallic taste in my mouth. Super nauseas. Extra saliva. Exhausted. Overall, I feel like a big bag of sickness. I just wanna go to sleep until I feel better. My husband admitted I'm stronger than he could ever be, and thanked me for sacrificing for our family in order to make it grow, since he knows how sick I am. That made me feel good .

@kmornelas29, that's so sweet of your DH. Can he come talk to mine?? This is our third pregnancy and I think DH still thinks I'm faking it. Anytime I go to bed early he's like "what are you doing?!" And when the MS is in high gear, he tells me to just ignore it. Easier said than done my friend!
I've been extra nauseous this week after having a migraine/stomach bug combo earlier in the week. Headaches, bloated, constipated, super hungry, exhausted. The horrendous heartburn i always get while pregnant has kicked in this week, hello Zantac and Tums
I'm super gaggy lately and I've had headaches off and on. SO seems much more sympathetic this go-round than when I was pregnant with DS
@sjohns08 my heartburn is awful again, too. I didn't get it until closer to third tri last time. This is definitely making me nervous about what's to come!
Some slight nausea but nothing too extreme which is nice. When I was pregnant with DS I was relatively symptom free too which is actually nerve wrecking because you feel like you should have symptoms...
Food aversion big time today causing lots of gagging. Nothing specific just food in general. Still having headaches that come and go and the shedding is starting to get extreme.
I think the dream craziness is starting for me. My only problem is that I can't remember any of them!!! I wake up in a sweat from intensity of it, but can't recall any of the details. Kind of annoying!
@kmornelas29 I have a terrible bitter metallic taste in my mouth as well for 3 days. Nothing will rid of it. Terrible nausea set in, tried B6 and ginger/ginger ale not working.
Does anyone know what causes the taste? It's aweful.
7wks tomorrow and Super fatigued! My OB's office prescribed me Diclegis for my extreme nausea...And the cravings are REAL! My poor DH is not used to me being so decisive in what want to eat and he is hopping to to appease me.
I've been so dang bloated all week. I just wanna fart for 3 minutes straight at times to feel any relief. I don't remember being this bloated and uncomfortable my first pregnancy.
Got some spotting again today Next appt is Tuesday so hoping it's just me doing a little too much. I finished all my antibiotics for the UTI on Saturday and had no spotting for almost a week!
Ok, the days of being symptom free are gone. The exhaustion, food aversions and lack of appetite have started. Nothing sounds good to eat the last couple of days. I just made my grocery list for the week and let me tell you it was a STRUGGLE. I'm fairly confident I'll be making dinner a few times this week and not be able to eat it. Oh well. Gotta cook for the husband and kid anyway.
Hi ladies, I haven't logged on in a bit. I am a bit freaked at the moment though as I've been having cramping for the last hour, as well as a tiny bit of pink discharge. I am a few days over 6 weeks so I'm not sure if this is normal and would appreciate any feedback from you guys. I will be calling the clinic in the morning as well.

@ChocolateIsLife I was looking on the symptom thread for a similar problem. I had brown discharge and spotting at like 7 weeks. Went to the doc and everything was fine. Now a week later and I an having it again. I feel a little tender down there, but,not crampy. I feel like i just over did playing with DD and cleaning the house. I've also been feeling really dizzy with shortness of breath, but feel totally fine after I sit for a minute. I have a doc appt on Wednesday, so I'm trying not to freak out (again).

@kkerner87 crossing my fingers for you that everything is fine on Wednesday. This is such a nerve-wracking time and I just wish I could skip through the first trimester.

Had sore breasts for past 2 weeks, VERY EMOTIONAL, somewhat more fatigued than usual, some cramping, and fullness in my lower left abdomen. Last Wednesday - Friday I was SUPER gassy and had heartburn and then Saturday until now ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! It is 2am and I am worried sick (obviously insomnia). My next appointment isn't for another week. Last MC was in November and praying for the best. Trying to be optimistic
Anyone else with the round ligament pain already? I don't think I had it until 2nd tri with DD, but I've felt it a few times over the past week or so, when I sneeze or move too quickly.
October 2017 June Siggy Challenge -- "You Had One Job!"
Holy Cow! All the pregnancy symptoms hit at once. I spent all day yesterday sick on the couch. I couldn't even step foot in the kitchen without dry heaving. Then got the bloody nose this morning and acne breakouts bad. I miss the blissful days of being fairly symptom free.
@beezeemarie yes, I'm having some round ligament pain. But I had it pretty early last time too. Is it to early for lightning crotch? I had some pains last night that felt similar, but I didn't really have that until the end last time.
@mommac2017 Thanks for starting this thread for the week! Definitely wanted to see how everyone was and share.
How am I feeling? Things are eerily well. Continual soreness in the "girls", it comes and goes. Tired, but not as tired as in week 5, I have acne now, it's particularly hitting my neck and forehead. Some slight food aversions and cravings for spicy and sour continue. No MS or true nausea. I did need a break on Saturday after eating some soup. It just didn't sit well. Pretty hungry, all the time.
Tomorrow is my first appointment, so we'll get to see if everything is normal!
Not a whole lot has changed on my side. Still sore boobs and exhaustion. I can't seem to keep myself awake past 8:00pm anymore! Little bit of gagging when doing dishes or brushing my teeth, but no real ms yet.

As to the acne - I have been suffering with acne for 18 years and pregnancy has always made it worse for me. BUT a few weeks ago I started using Cetaphil face wash and not only did it keep my non-pregnant skin under control, it seems to be doing the trip so far this pregnancy as well. DH, in a very loving way, told me that my skin looked amazing (which is saying a lot with 18 years of breakouts and some scarring).

@aprilsarahjune, yeah same here. I've tried Cetaphil with no real luck. I recently started using Rodan and Fields Unblemish which really cleared me up, but have stopped using it until I can get it cleared by my doctor. Another sucky reason for waiting until 12 weeks for my first appt.
Every possible awful symptom hit me like a steam roller last week. Nausea, vomiting, nose bleeds, gas, fatigue, gagging... and on and on.
This is our first and for some reason my husband and I thought we lived in a Disney movie and I would be some glowing pregnant goddess. Nope, instead I want to lay in bed with my barf bowl all day and burp and fart.

Oh my goodness this is hilarious (and also not because it hits so close to home). I thought I'd be one of those lovely glowing pregnant ladies, and last week (week 6) it all hit. The gagging and the constant nausea are the worst!
@VLillyV- Jealous.. you were me last week. I miss the me last week,
MS has kicked in. Feeling craptastic all day long. Not much in the form of actual vomiting... though I did once on Saturday night and I sat in front of the toilet this morning, but nothing happened. All food sounds gross to me. The second I think I food, my stomach churns. Even things that taste good, just sound awful. I think the only thing worse than needing to function while feeling this way is that it's supposed to last for another 6 weeks or so. Ugh.
Also... my face broke out last week. My chest is still pretty sore. And I had some gas last night that made me feel like an inflated balloon.

I'm still craving red meat like crazy. Went to Red Robin between dances on Saturday ( my girls dance competition) , and ordered a burger. Waiter asked , " how do you want that?" I cried and said I want it Medium rare but I'll take it no pink it was okay but did not satisfy my craving.
All I want is a big juicy prime rib with tons of pink and Au Ju. Insert super hormonal cry face here.
