@busymommy23 well maybe you’ll get an easy baby. My son didn’t sleep well for almost a year. He’s better now but my insomnia is back and I’m already feeling uncomfortable at night sometimes. I know it’s only going to get worse if i get as big as before.
My DS was easy when it came to sleep, 7-8 weeks and he was sleeping about 6 hours straight. I got really lucky.
I don't know when the exhaustion stops. Mine has come for a few days, then gone for a few days. I'm already getting uncomfortable sleep-wise (there's much more of that to come).
I'm having severe cramps again, and all of my food aversions have pretty much disappeared. (Woo woo! I was seriously getting tired of bland food like white rice for breakfast, lunch and dinner). Dreams were strong, then disappeared, and have now reappeared with a vengeance.
Dude. The back pain and growing pains in the ute have been so bad lately. I am dying from anxiety waiting for my next appointment because they've been that bad (WHY did they make me wait nearly 7 weeks? It's killing me!). Apparently my back doesn't want me to stand up, move or, well, breath. And stupid growing pains feel like period pains. And don't even get me started on the bleeding after sex, thing. Grrrr. Or the spontaneous revisit of nausea.
Sorry, I'm being whiney. I think I'm just mega cranky from far too many consecutive nights of WAY too little sleep, and the anxiety is not helping.
Edit: Just reread and wow, was that angsty. Sorry again, lol. Thank you for putting up with me, ladies!
Ate some Annie’s Mac and Cheese today never eat that stuff but today I made some and it came right back up again. So gross. Still dealing with the breathlessness from the pulmonary embolisms but doctor said I’ll eventually get better may take a few weeks. I’m looking forward to working out again and getting my energy back. @d_marie_23 haha we all have our days! Vent away
This insomnia sucks. I could barely hold my head up all day. Could have fallen asleep walking, no joke. Now here it is 11:15pm and my brain is wired and I’m scrolling the internets. WHY?! I really want sleep.
I spent all day in the hospital with food poisoning, I guess this isn’t really a symptom but it sucks lol. Worried about the baby but I have an ultrasound in 1 week. So hoping all is well.
I have beeh having pretty uncomfortable back pain as well for the past week or two! It sucks but here’s to hoping it’s normal for both of us. @d_marie_23
I have some energy back and have been feeling pretty well overall but I still need more rest than what I normally would. Pretty much constantly hungry, still experiencing sore boobs and crazy dreams. Excited to see the babe again in a week!
13+4 and for a week or so have been having a lot of pelvic pressure (dull, brief, intermittent) like right above and sometimes on top of my pelvic bone. Hoping it’s just growing pains/extra weight due to twins but like an idiot I googled it and am now convinced I have a short cervix so I’m going to have the OB check when I see her in 9 days (gah so far). Anyone else experience something like this?
12+6 and I’m tired but my aversions have gone thank god. And my nausea is less. Thank God! I had very slight cramps last night but it was a full moon and I usually do when it’s a full moon
@devilcat139 I'm having a lot of pressure, cramping, and pulling as well, particularly on my right side. I know I have a cyst on the left side so that wouldn't be surprising, but it's an annoying concern, even though I'm sure it's normal. Sigh. Doesn't get easy, no matter how many times you've been pregnant!
I had insomnia so bad last night. Couldnt fall asleeo or stay asleep. I feel like a zombie today...probably look like one too haha. Hopefully that is the only night of that! At least I have my first appt with the midwife at my obs office today!

@devilcat139 I’ve had pains like that since almost the beginning. Being high risk with twins I think they do check your cervix more. One of my biggest irrational fears with DS was an incompetent cervix, even though I had no risk factors... Dr. Google is the worst.
I'm having a lot of RLP... also when I get up to pee in the middle of the night it's so painful I can hardly bear it! I remember this last time and it was brushed off as RLP (which I am sure it is) but OMG.
Nausea came back last week but seems to have gone away again. Fatigue is still going strong. Most recent symptom: super horny all the time also had some weird eye floaters this morning, so bad that I couldn't see to finish my makeup and had to lay down for a while. Followed by a dull headache. Anyone had this?
Anxiety! I'm not stressed or worried it's physical anxiety. IDK if that makes sense but it's like I'm overly aware of my body and every time I feel slightly shaky, dizzy, off, anything, I make it a million times worse by focusing on it and getting nervous then come the sweaty palms, racing heart everything. Ugh.
I have a UTI... anyone experience this during pregnancy? Of course my loss mom brain is freaking out, even though the nurse said it's fine, I just need antibiotics.
They took my pee on 12/20 and didn't tell me the results until today, 1/2.
@Lelo2006 I had recurrent UTIs in my last two pregnancies-enough that my doc said if this time I have one in my urine culture from my first appt they might put me on antibiotics for the entire pregnancy. I'm gonna hold off on that but, yeah. Totally common!
ETA: I have a history pre pregnancy of UTIs and kidney issues so that's probably why it was recurrent, don't think its going to be recurrent just because you have one now! But it is common.
This back pain wow it sucks! right in the middle of my back. I am sure from all the crappy bed the past two weeka but it continues to linger. also so exhausted all the time!
You gassy ladies are hysterical....but Im also in that crowd. It doesnt help that I want garlic with everything. Poor dh said i was trying to suffocate him the other night. Heck, I didnt even kniw because I was sleeping! Sure couldnt blame it on the dog then!!

I don’t remember if I posted in this thread or last weeks. Forgetfulness. That’s one I’m struggling with right now for sure! Just being really spaced out when I’m normally so on top of things. I blame the bean but also exhaustion. I just cannot get enough sleep. I’m STILL a walking zombie at 13.5 weeks. Ugh

This is probably TMI but my gas is so toxic it’s rivaling the dog right now. I don’t even want to be around me.
I pushed / tried today longer than it took to birth #3. Uuuggghhhh.
