Re: Weekly Symptoms Thread 3/6

  • Still the freaking morning sickness! Feeling much more movement- baby was moving away at a concert Saturday! Sneezes are hard for me right now with having to pee more and now I get a slight cramp when I sneeze now.

  • Despite only getting 3 hours of sleep, I have a little energy today. I managed to do laundry, dishes, and get dinner started in the Crockpot. That's more than I have been able to do in a day the entire 1st trimester (besides taking care/feeding/transporting/bathing 3 little humans). 

    I got my mojo back! 

    Vomiting less since starting the Zofran, but now I'm having daily headache & an occasional migraine. 

    Baby actually let me drink coffee this morning! :) 
  • Round ligament pain and insomnia. The last couple nights, both my husband and I have been tossing and turning. Today is a staff-only work day, and I'm stuck writing progress notes this morning. I'm not doing a great job of staying awake for it.

  • Round ligament pain has arrived for me. Almost everytime that I go from sitting to standing. I'm starting to stand but leave my top half bent, then straighten up completley. seems to help, although I look like an idiot haha. Nauseau is coming and going. Swalling pills is THE WORST for me. I threw up my prenatal the other night as soon as I swallowed it. I think I may have to get the gummy prenatals... I also felt her move for the first time Friday night!! I'm positive it was her! I haven't felt her since though. I need to take some time throughout the day to be still and try to feel her.

  • I have some great energy again. Been able to get 3 workouts in a week. 
    But I've been getting headaches about twice a week that are awful! Including upper back and neck tension. 
    Im also experiencing bad gas pains this week, and sciatic flare ups from time to time.

  • Energy is totally coming back, though I really didnt want to get out of bed this AM.  It was only 14 out, and I really hate the cold! 
    My new symptom is this weird pulsating in my lower abdomen.  Im pretty sure its just increased blood flow, but sometimes I swear its not that.  Most of the time it feels like my pulse, but there are a few times that it doesnt quite match up with that.  Not sure if Im just going insane, or if its more baby movements.

  • I have been feeling sick on an empty stomach my appetite comes and goes and my legs lately have been getting cramps sucks one of the things I don't like and round ligament pains are the worst not happen to get those at all sometimes I just want to cry because they are worse than the first pregnancy.
  • Boobs. My boobs hurt so freaking bad. All the time. I've started rolling up a wash cloth and putting it between them under my sports bra when I sleep which seems to help. 

    And I looks like the insomnia is here as well. It was so bad with DD but I stayed at home so it didn't matter as much. Insomnia + no caffeine = one grumpy Momma
  • Stupid migraine and sneezing fit today
  • Not really new but so fricking starving every 5 min. 

    It's like I'm growing a baby or something. I'm sure our grocery bill has doubled because of me.

    I work an insane amount of hours so I haven't been making the healthiest choices but I VOW to get back on track.
  • @belmont1785 +1 to everything you said. I voted we go to Panera last night instead of the planned pork dinner because I was starving and tired at 7:30 and didn't want to start cooking at 8. (But hey, after 1.5 hours at Home Depot, we're a few steps closer to ripping up bedroom carpet and kitchen tile to put down some faux hardwood floors in our rental unit.) Still, I have to do better.

    It might be hiccups if it doesn't match with your pulse
  • +1 over here for the leg cramps. Like two nights ago I woke up for the first time (this pregnancy) thinking my leg was being chewed off. Nope just one the amazing joys. With DS I had them every single night starting around week 18/19 so not to far off I'm 16 weeks now. But I hope it isn't as bad this time around. Drinking tons of water dosent seem to help me either.

  • Also I briefly forgot, until DS just climbed all over me, my boobs are killing me this morning! Uhhhg I was thinking maybe I was in the clear for the boob pain since they haven't hurt at all. Nope they just decided to surprise me.

  • I'm in a bad mood today. I'm sick of round ligament pain. It's every freaking day, several times a day. Add onto that the leg cramps and the need to still take diclesis and I'm just cranky as hell. 

    I'm also starting to get irrationally worried that I haven't been noticeably feeling the baby in the last couple weeks but I continue to get bigger by the day so I assume she's just in there growing and chillin' out in her little amniotic hot tub. 

    Oh and my boob felt like it got stabbed last night for no good reason. Leg craps. Bah humbug.

  • Every single animal video makes me cry, no matter what it's about. 
    Headaches every morning and heartburn every night, too. I've taken to staying on the couch for an extra 1/2 hour or so before bed so that I'm not laying down trying to digest my dinner. 
  • I somehow managed to destroy my back this weekend to the point where I have sharp pains when I walk or lean over/straighten up. It's worse at night, and combined with an old ankle injury that's tender, it's put me out of commission. The back has also happened before, and a few weeks of rest and copious amounts of 800mg Motrin is my usual treatment.

    But grr no motrin and grr the ob office was closed on Friday and my appointment on Tuesday is guaranteed to be cancelled for a blizzard.
