Only 3.5 weeks and already symptoms... ekkkk. This could be a long haul! Mostly gassy cramping, diarrhea and nausea. And So. Thirsty... and So. Bloated.
@rachelg777 That;'s super interesting. I have some waves of motion sickness which may be my nausea? I am on progesterone too and I wonder if that affects things. It's just so strange how our bodies react differently.
@ccvslp Keeping you in my thoughts. But remember me....huge bleed this weekend and all was well for the scan.
So here's a fun issue that we haven't discussed yet... Eatlier today I took a nap and had a ridiculously intense and vivid sex dream. Just how intense and vivid? I woke up with my body orgasming. (Which was kind of shitty because as soon as I woke up it ruined it...)
Now, I know it's weird, and I know it makes me look a certain kind of way if you didn't know this happens, but it does and can happen. When I was pregnant with J and I was on pelvic rest it happened all the time and I was miserable. Luckily for me (and my SO I guess) I can actually do something about it this go around
@ivyvines6 I mentioned that's happened to me a couple times recently and it might have been a randoms thread or symptoms. About twice now. I think I woke up at the tail end of the orgasm...

@ivyvines6 I feel like anything embarrassing when pregnant is just totally normal. During sex the other night I totally farted. It wasn't even like I know i had to fart and tried to hold it in... it came out of no where.
I second @momo214!!! I'm definitely having crazy dreams, but they're crazy bad, not crazy good. The other night one of my friends and I were being stalked by a crazy person outside of our dorm room (creeeeepy!) and last night I was on an island with my girls and we were being chased by animals. Like, anacondas and hippos. When do the orgasm inducing ones start? Although I have those every once in a while when I'm not pregnant, so maybe I shouldn't complain.....

I can officially say that I am now getting car sick constantly. With me driving even. I have this issue with nausea that I have every time I get the flu too, where I feel like I'm going to throw up I desperately want to throw up and it's all I can do to not make myself puke, but I never actually throw up. Apparently that is a new pregnancy thing for me too, because I didn't feel like this at all with J.
@justsuzie once you get things moving again, try taking a probiotic with your prenatal vitamin every day. I was so constipated last pregnancy but this time it seems to be doing the trick. *knock on wood*
@justsuzie The pooping (I call it magic time after I worked at a camp and we used that as a code) is so different for me this time! I'm usually a person with no issues. This time it's been a struggle. I hope our issues resolve quickly. Maybe it gives us something else to focus on.
@roomsu The other night I was trying everything on the internet....sit on the toilet and rock back and forth, get on the floor on all fours and rock, pray to the poop gods.
@roomsu I knew my ovulation date, so I knew how far along I should be when I had my dating US. I was measuring a day ahead of O date, which is what they went with for my EDD. Before that they had not given me an EDD.
One thing that helps me is squatting. My midwives recommend lots of practice squatting to build up the muscles for birth. So last pregnancy I was doing 5 minutes before bed each night. I often found after that I had a nice poop. I guess I should start all those exercises up again....

@momo214 I just died laughing reading that! I'm definitely not embarrassed, I just thought it was humorous.
