Re: Symptoms 8/16

  • 33+3

    I’ve had morning sickness every day this week! Not like it was in the first tri, but definitely nausea. WTF
  • Loading the player...
  • @cdepperschmidt I had maybe a month reprieve from throwing up. The nausea has been rough the last two weeks.
  • +1 for nausea. Completely out of nowhere this morning, same morning routine, same breakfast. I still don’t feel well so I’m trying a smoothie instead of the lunch I brought. Lightheaded also all day. Trying to drink a lot but it’s not helping. Ugh!
  • 33w1d that picture is perfect @sammierose464 when DH and I got back from the inlaws last weekend the first thing my mom said was "you look bigger since I last saw you!!" I saw her three days prior... I just laughed 
  • + 1 for nausea
    I had one week of amazing sleep and now it's back to being shitty. I haven't slept much at all last 3 days, which means zero energy to tackle my huge to do list!
    Other than that just baby sitting really low causing discomfort and 24/7 peeing...
  • 31+3
    I seriously can not get comfortable unless I am walking or laying down. Sitting just sucks right now because LO is just chilling out in my pelvis. It seems like I keep having a few days of extreme discomfort then I'll be fine for a few days after that. My guess is that he has growth spurts then my body has to catch up. 
  • Ugh nausea here too. I just wanna get home and curl up.
  • The most noticeable symptom I’m dealing with is my lack of motivation. I work from home 80% of the time and all I want to do is lay down and watch TV. I started feeling really guilty about this today knowing that I’m not being at all productive. 8 more weeks of work then I hopefully won’t feel guilty when all I do is lay around!
  • @belo290 don’t worry, you’ll still feel guilty. Mom guilt will hit you with something you “really should be doing right now”. Stupid mom guilt!

  • 32+1

    I feel like I’ve been more emotional and hormonal the past couple weeks than the rest of the pregnancy put together :( 
  • Currently trying to fall back asleep at 3 am bc I had to get up to pee and the heartburn & acid reflux are SO BAD... kicking myself for giving into Mexican last night. Hope this doesn’t last for 7 1/2 more weeks... 
  • @cdepperschmidt +1 nausea.  I had it the entire time with DS, but it is terrible this week.  I think I am noticing a correlation between nausea and BH.

    @belo290 Also have zero motivation.  I can't figure out if it's ADD.  Is that a symptom of pregnancy? I don't remember it happening last time. I also feel guilty about it.

    @acciocoffee there is literally no comfortable position that exists for me.  I feel like it is way too early to be so uncomfortable.

  • My vagina feels so swollen. Every time I stand up from sitting it feels like all the blood is right there. My varicose vein down there doesn't help the situation.

  • I feel like absolute crap today.. super uncomfortable, bloated, nauseous, swollen, miserable most of the day honestly..
  • I woke up with a stye in each eye - super painful. Any suggestions other than warm compresses? I don’t think it’s pink eye, I’ve had that before - no red itchiness or watery eyes and their not crusty or gooey... just a small red bump and under my eyes feels tender. 
  • I feel really off today too. Not sure why, just blah and nauseous..
  • Finally stepped on the scale today. I gained 11 pounds in the last month and 30 total. No wonder I’m growing a giant baby! Can’t believe there’s almost two months to go. I hope the weight gain slows down when I get back to work and routine in September.
  • @jenchoo I get that feeling. I've gained about 30 as well and I was really hoping to only gain a total of 30, so that's clearly not going to happen. I just have to remind myself that I'm only gaining more weight for 2 more months, then it will go away (eventually). Plus, I'll have a cute little baby to distract me from my extra weight so I won't care anyways. 
  • 30+4
    I just joined the 30 lb club too... and was hoping to not surpass that number, but with 8 weeks left thats unrealistic. 

    My 3rd Tri exhaustion has really kicked in this week. I feel like i'm back in first tri and could lay down on the floor and be out in seconds. I've almost fallen asleep at my desk twice today. 

    Also, the pressure is crazy uncomfortable. 

  • Gah to all the gas pains lately. Maybe this kid is blocking something now. But about every other day I get really bad gas pains that won't go away unless I sit on the toilet for an hour. But I've been pooping semi-regularly! (I might go a couple days without going then suddenly get a lot out over the next couple days.) 

    Last week I left a little early from work because I couldn't get it to go away and could barely sit or stand (walking out to the car was fun) and I just wanted to go home and sit on the toilet. Maybe it's time to start the Colace??
  • Yeah, I'd definitely try the colace, @hannaht8516

  • I’m blaming the pounds adding on to constipation/irregularity.
  • Ok now I know what hemorrhoids actually are.  :bawling:  Someone please send help. 
  • Gained 7 lbs in two weeks :fearful: granted I was out of state at a work function so eating was hard. 
  • I’m also on the over 30lb weight gain club. At this point I don’t feel there is much I can do. I have tried to stay active but I’m also eating when I’m hungry which is often. 
  • I have joined that +30 lbs too. Dang it I was hoping that I could stay within the doctor recommended weight gain since I am already a little over weight. Oh well not much I can do now and hopefully in the next 8 weeks it is just baby weight I gain. 
  • I havent weighed myself in a long time.. I mean I get weighed at every visit to the dr. Which is weekly but with two I think I'm okay still?? 
  • Yeah, you're good @mamabearcj

  • 33.6 I have gained over 30 pounds but I think ill still end up less than DS1. I hope I can lose it easy again. I am experiencing heartburn everyday the past week and thats about it. Baby is moving like crazy. Cant believe I have 6 weeks 1 days left its going so fast.
  • I have no idea what I've gained and I refuse to get on the scale until after baby. I don't look at the doctor and I keep my shoes on just in case I catch a glimpse.... so I know it's wrong and feel better. Lol

  • I am finally trying physical therapy next week since my back is rocked. I asked my OB about it today and she was a huge proponent. 
  • Guys, I think I've joined the reflux/heartburn club. Woke up in the middle of the night with a horrible taste in my mouth, and it's lingered all day. And I feel kinda nauseous. Ughhhhh.
