  • Itching to the point of bleeding?!
  • Ugh - I'm jealous of you already getting bigger boobs!  I was a 32D pre-baby, then grew to 32F while nursing.  I weaned DD around Thanksgiving and I swear that I'm a 32B now.  And they look so floppy. Come back to life, boobs!

    My symptoms for the week are: acid reflux (I may as well start taking Nexium or Prilosec daily now, I know it's coming), headaches, and a stuffy nose.  Maybe I'm getting a cold, maybe it's from pregnancy.  Who knows that this point?!
  • @MichelleAG05 I feel you! I FINALLY just went up a cup size. My sad, deflated, post-nursing boobs needed some love. 

    @busymommy23 and now I want chocolate milk 
  • Sorry @acunamatada! :)

    Hi ladies, I am calling out to any diabetic moms out there. In the past week I have gone from needing 60-70 units of insulin with my meal even if I barely ate a bread roll, to not taking any insulin with a huge plate of pasta and getting low readings. I know that your insulin resistance is supposed to increase throughout pregnancy and so I’m feeling concerned. I am calling my doctor at 9 when they get in, but just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. 

    Edit: spelling

    I loooove all dairy right now! Normally, I'm the queen of almond milk and now I could not care less about it. But cheese, yogurt, milk... so yum! And my skin doesn't even breakout! It's heaven for me right now!

    In other news I'm actually a but queasy this am and I have a slight headache. Gonna try to up my water consumption for the day and hopefully it helps.
  • UGH. I have a 34H normally, which is already too big and I just ordered new bras two sizes up. I already have a hard time finding bras and I’m terrified of how big they’re going to get.
  • Holy sciatica. I overdid it cleaning today I guess, and I literally cannot move/walk. I broke down crying before because I'm only 13 week so pregnant and already in too much pain to function. Trying to lower my son into his crib and lift him out of it while I was home alone before was frightening, I almost thought he would have to stay in his crib until his dad got home. Anyway, lying on an ice pack now and will call the chiropractor Monday. Does anyone know if icy hot is okay to use? 
  • I just hit 15 weeks today and my nausea and vomiting are getting way way worse. I've been throwing up more this past week than the whole pregnancy combined. I don't have my next appointment until the 16th and I don't know if I should call my doctor's office and mention this ahead of time. I'm pretty convinced it's hyperemesis gravidarum but that might just be my excessive googling
  • You should always call your doctor and mention it, if you feel concerned. For me, calling in usually relieves so much stress because they often have advice or just kind comforting words to say.  @Knottie70796936

    Definitely call in the morning. They may be able to call you in a prescription to help. 
  • Anyone else getting constant “pressure” between your hips/ute? I don’t think its BH this early on (13 wks) but i feel super uncomfortable when I’m out walking too much. 
  • My new favorite symptom appeared as I ate a ton of Oreos tonight... baby kicks! Anyone else? This just made my night!!
  • Anyone else constantly cold’? I can’t get warm
  • @elizabethrn87 I definitely have that problem. I usually run hot but I have been struggling to stay warm. I typically can't even sleep in a heated room and lately I've been cranking the heat, sleeping with two blankets and a heating pad.  Must be the baby taking all our body heat 

    @zande2016 I have sciatica real bad too lately. It's always worse for me at night too, so I dread having to get up to pee in the night :s I have stopped drinking water in the evening... hoping that helps reduce the number of pee trips lol. It's so painful to walk sometimes!! 
  • I wouldn't say I have sciatica but I have had a lot of back pain lately. I think its from being on my feet in the kitchen so much. The last two nights I've had back pain that was bad enough to require a heating pad. Other than that symptoms are pretty low key! 

    @wildtot I have had pressure all over down there, but not between the hips/ute, more like the ute and pelvic bone. I attribute mine to gas and ute growing so maybe yours is ute growing?
  • @SmashJam @wildtot I have also been having pains/pressure both between hips and by pubic bone. My OB said it was likely just growing pains when I asked her about it. 

    AFM I am now having bad pain like in my outer hip when I sleep on my side on whichever leg is on top. Not sure what that’s about. Hoping some yoga stretches will help. Anyone experience this? 
  • @lavillard mine comes and goes randomly, it's really frustrating how unpredictable it is. I felt fine after my attack on Saturday, woke up the next morning and it was gone, but it came back suddenly when walking around the mall later that day and I couldn't move for a while. It's such an intense pain. I think prenatal yoga and regular chiropractor visits need to happen...if only I could find the time. 

    BTW, for anyone with back pain, I've found the heating pad might feel good in the moment, but an ice pack helps more long term. 
  • Sciatica and cold all the time too! 
    I think my discomfort are growing pains, my bump is huge when i lay down! 
  • @elizabethrn87 YES! I cannot get warm. Even bumping the heat up in the house doesn't work.  My DH is sweating and I'm like "it's so cold!"
