The under portion of my boobs feel like someone used them as a punching bag all day lol. They haven't been sore like this for a couple of weeks! Nausea is also back today, all day. I definitely need to do better at eating more protein and fibre...
I've been up all hours of the night with a gnawing hunger pain in my stomach that wouldn't go away. After I ate I was so nauseous I just managed to not puke
I have a horrendous headache that won't go away that started last night. It's bringing back memories of the headaches I got with ds. Nooooooo!
Ugh that’s been my main symptom. I get them once or twice per week and then they last 2-3 days. NOTHING helps. My wife feels so bad because she tries everything to make me feel better too! (She’s pretty awesome) I’m almost 12 weeks so I’m hoping they’re just a first trimester thing...
Guys, seriously, this is too much information but....
I just want to poop!! Why did I have diarrhea all last week and this week I feel like I have a brick up my ass but I can't get it out? Ugggghhhhhhh I can't find a comfortable was to sit at all and it's making my blump so much bigger.
That may or may not have deserved a spoiler box, but you all opened it because you have dirty minds. So thanks for reading! Cheers!

@sandbar517 I've had a handful of atkins shakes and they've worked pretty well. I find the ensure ones to be a little metallic-y when I'm not pregnant so I'm afraid to try them now lol. But the atkins cookies and cream in the freezer for around an hour (so it gets slushy) sooo good

@artlea2013 I had the same issue for the last 2 weeks! the other day for lunch I had chicken noodle soup (our office was freezing) and a side salad from chick fil a, and then for dinner I made chicken thighs and had another side salad size salad. The next morning, I was running late and grabbed mcdonalds, between the fiber and the grease, lets just say that things are moving again! lol

Last night I woke up and my heart felt like it was racing and I felt soooo nauseous, I didn't actually get sick but that is by far the worst I have felt so far. Maybe this is the beginning of actual morning sickness for me haha
Omg I've never had heartburn before in my life but I just threw up and now my chest and throat are on fire. This is awful you guys! I've never understood what everyone was complaining about before but this suckssss
@sharkmama39@ivyvines6 I didn't try sleeping propped up but anytime I stood up it definitely felt worse than when I was lying down. I'll definitely mention it to my doctor because Tums didn't do shit for me.
nikky8 I've woken up with racing heart a few times in the last 2 weeks . I just lay there and it goes away within minutes. It's scary though!
I don't want to be the first bitch that comes on here and says....my nausea, and insomnia has finally gone away but... I have felt normal for the past 3 days. I've probably just cursed myself.
Nausea, vomiting, vertigo, exhaustion, constipation. I feel like I have the flu and nothing is working. I have taken everything they can give me and nothing. I'm 10 weeks tomorrow and so ready for this to be over. Does it ever get better?
I feel like all I do is complain. I hate to be a negative person but I have been miserable. DS had a terrible stomach bug yesterday (ended up in the ER) and I’m terrified of getting it bc #1 my immune system is suppressed from being pregnant #2 my diet has been terrible #3 I have barely been able to sleep the last week or so. Blahhhh /endrant
I'd just like to point out how gross and weird pregnancy is and how strange this whole thread is. I'm silently cheering for some of you to have good poops and for others to keep down lunch. Never pictured that happening when I was a kid and dreamed of being pregnant.

@fraufarbissina if you're able to sleep at all, try sleeping on your left side. with the natural curve of your stomach, this will help trap some of it further away from your esophagus. good luck! I had it for the first month. it's terrible orange sherbet saved me and put out the fire (not saying it will for everyone, but i think it's nice to hear what works for others so you have options when you hit desperation lol)

@ladystinson When I was a kid my mom would get me orange sherbet when I had a sore throat. I would mix it up until it was a smooth consistency and called it my medicine. Maybe it has some hidden medicinal ingredient

It totally gets better when your youngest kid is 3.5 and toilet trained. Just be careful not to get baby fever.
@curleemama32 you are so right! I swear as soon as the pee stick dries, my husband starts actively trying to be a jerk. He's normally pretty good about most things but when I'm pregnant, I think he forgets how to clean up after himself and not say dumb stuff.
Glad to hear its not just my husband. He's normally the clean freak (I have some serious ADHD, makes me a terrible organizer/ cleaner), but the past few weeks all he has done is played in his f@$%^$ng computer and whine about no sex, while I parent our 2 year old, cook dinner, plan and grade for my classes... Dude, I'm constantly trying to fend off vomiting. I have no interest in sex right now, and your attitude and lack of help is NOT helping the situation!
I'm stressing. Even though we saw a strong heartbeat on ultrasound just before 7 weeks, my symptoms feel like they've dissipated. I know I'm overanalyzing but I had a dr appt yesterday and it wasn't that reassuring. Just the whole "things are fine now, HB was a good indicator but no guarantee." I go back next Thurs for a HB check on the Doppler.
I was insanely exhausted on Friday but then felt better the rest of the weekend. I'm hungry a lot but I don't feel like that's very different from my normal life. My nausea is basically gone. My only symptom of miscarriage was loss of symptoms. But my first pregnancy was pretty easy like this too (I just don't remember when symptoms got better).
Soo me right now, i will check on my OB tomorrow morning for an US, hopig to hear a good news, lets be positive and happy for now.
Annnnnd I threw up for the first time today :S here we go. I feel naive for thinking I wouldn't actually get sick. Anyone else not experience sickness until about 9 weeks?!
@nikky8 mine didn't hit until week 8 or so really bad. I was all "yeah yeah I'm fine" at my appointment at 8 weeks and the next day couldn't handle anything. I'd had really bad food aversions and smell reactions but nausea was minimal til that point. Luckily at 9w5d I'm feeling a lot better already! I even felt hungry for the first time yesterday so it was awesome to feel that! What I've noticed while stalking the threads is that if it hits late it tends to go away faster too so I'm thinking we may be some of the lucky ones?

Severe heartburn every night has set in, any tips to relieve this??
Tums, sleeping on your left side and avoiding spicy food. There's more but that's what I can think of off the top of my head. For these situations good is my BFF lol

People will tell you to sleep propped up but that made it worse for me.

DH won't stop laughing at me.
I ended up having to have random bits of food for dinner instead. That fajita was NOT gonna stay in if I kept trying.
TMI: Just got home from work & finally Effin pooped. That is all.
