It’s a new symptom every day right now. Backache, body aches, exhaustion, contractions, hot flashes. The only thing that stays consistent is the contractions. I get rid of one thing for something else to show up. Last night until 5 am it was a migraine. What?!? Why? I had some thyroid blood work done yesterday. If that isn’t an issue, I’m chalking this up to pre-labor hormone changes.
@jakobaby I'm VERY jealous of the contractions... but ugh to the migraine. That sounds painful.
AFM I have an AWFUL cough. I don't even want to say cold because it is literally the coughing. Last night/this AM was rough. I coughed so hard I puked twice. Nothing new for me lol. Also LO's movements have started randomly REALLY hurting... sharp stabbing pains. I don't know who gave him a knife to play with in there, but I wish he'd use it to exit and not just stab me.
RIP my hips. They cannot take any more. Laying on them while sleeping is so painful and when I wake up and take 5 minutes to roll over they crack and pop every which way. Also the only way I'm comfortable sitting anymore is with my knees wide open (whatever the non offensive term for sitting Indian style is). I feel like I shouldn't be able to sit like this, but hopefully it's magically making baby move down/ me dilate.
@EmilyLove25 the migraine isn’t the worst I’ve ever had but it’s back and nagging. My thyroid blood work came back as ‘perfect’ so this all has to be baby related. That cough sounds terrible especially since it’s making you gag and then vomit. I had a bad cough in September and had to sit on the toilet when I coughed because pee always came with it!
@maueraa07 sounds like baby is nice, low and ready to go though! Hopefully, the pain is doing something!
@maueraa07 I believe the preferred nomenclature is "Criss-cross Applesauce". Haha, courtesy of my time spent working at a daycare And i have the same problem at night when sleeping on my side - my hips will be killing me!! It's actually more comfortable sleeping elevated on my back.
@gilsam1 me too! Especially when rolling over in bed. I got out my yoga ball the other day and rolling around in that has helped quite a bit with some of that pulling and stretching.
