And this weeks feature...

Itchy nipples!

megpants209 · August 2018

You’ll all love this. So up until recently I’ve still been having some pressure in my pelvic region. I asked my OB about it since I’m a little farther along than most people with pressure it seems. She said it’s fine but also wasn’t really sure what I was worried about. I was worried about an incompetent cervix... but it came out as “I’m afraid the baby’s gonna fall out!” Insert facepalm here...

BourbonBiscuits · August 2018

@megpants209 I have sooo much pressure too, and that’s exactly how I explain it to my husband lol. I think that’s a perfectly legit explanation

bellebaby221 · August 2018

Not getting up to pee as much at night but still can't sleep worth crap. Starting to feel baby doing flip flops so that's fun. Hormones are raging so crying at the silliest stuff these days.

becks_726 · August 2018

Sleep is getting uncomfortable. My bump is tiny but already wants external support. (Thanks for nothing, abs.)
The dry skin, hair and nails continues.
Oh and my tailbone is sore. It feels like it's slowly splitting in half.

kdrn913 · August 2018

Add me to the itchy nipples. Also plain water is starting to give me heartburn again- did this with DD too

cas060 · August 2018

My hips have been achy

lifeislove87 · August 2018

Baby is now having full out dance parties in my uterus, finally a symptom I love. Also still vomiting and super nauseous/ dizzy/ lethargic but that’s pretty much same old at this point

etnyah · August 2018

Today is the first day my RLP has actually been painful. Also, not a symptom, but I spent all day yesterday cleaning the apartment like a maniac (it was way overdue) and now my legs are super sore. So I'm just achey as hell all over.

At least my nausea is gone for now! Yay!

megpants209 · August 2018

@BourbonBiscuits thank goodness you agree! That’s legit what it feels like! The doc looked at me like I was insane.

hannahbananas11 · August 2018

@grebretso Wanna send some of that cleaning urge my way? Because my accomplishments this weekend have all been Netflix-related.

etnyah · August 2018

@hannahbananas11 My incentive for cleaning is usually knowing I'll have my inlaws over! Maybe invite yours over in the next week or so?

hannahbananas11 · August 2018

@grebretso In that case, I'll stick to Netflix.

PurplePoppy424 · August 2018

Anyone else’s morning sickness come back with a vengeance? I can’t even keep water down today. It’s not anything I ate or a virus. I don’t have a fever and no one else in the house is experiencing any symptoms. We all ate the same stuff yesterday. I’m starting to think I might have HG.

cas060 · August 2018

Day 3 of the runs

... its better than being constipated but at least when youre constipated its in there long enough for your body to absorb the foods nutients.. sheesh. Just when i was starting to see weight gain... nope just kidding, flushing it all down the toilet!

lifeislove87 · August 2018

@PurplePoppy424 welcome to the club, it’s a pretty low threshold to be diagnosed, I think it’s puking 4 times in a 24 hour period. Anyways my puking/nausea hasn’t really come back with a vengeance but has never really left so I feel your pain. Try to stay hydrated, but if you can’t stop the puking definitely go in for fluids and IV zofran

Venessa88 · August 2018

@lifeislove87 and @PurplePoppy424 and anyone else still getting sick. I hope you feel better soon and can hopefully get some relief.

I am not getting sick but am so nauseous again I can't eat or drink. It's been gone for a little while and 2 bites into my lunch I had to stop because I had an intense wave of nausea with intense sweating. I don't handle puking very well and normally end up having my bladder let go at the same time because of #nobladdercontrol, I am thinking the sweating was me holding everything in because otherwise I'd end up having to go home to change and that's just embarrassing.

Same! I have a preggo pillow my friend let me use. It has helped so much. And for the dry skin, burts bees seems to have helped so much.

My hips were hurting like crazy but the pillow helps. Nausea is still here but my meds keep it in check.

@gretbretso so glad you are getting better in regards to the sickness!

okayestmom12 · August 2018

Add me to the itchy nipple club.

I’ve been using a pillow to support my belly and it’s made a world of difference with sleep.

BourbonBiscuits · August 2018

I love my pillow (just a cheap body pillow from target - lovingly nicknamed Bunny for reasons I can't recall) between my knees to keep my hips open. It's the only way I don't wake up with achy hips.

I feel like my bump has shrunk over the past few days. Maybe baby has moved back towards my back, because I carried DS straight out front and felt the same this time around until recently.

madreofdragons · August 2018

I keep waking up in the middle of the night and it’s not like my mind is anxious but my body is if that makes any sense. I’m sleepy.

hannahbananas11 · August 2018

@madreofdragons I kinda feel the same way at times. I'll suddenly feel my heart rate pick up by about 10-20 bpm. My fitbit tells me my hr, and last night I woke up in the middle of the night to what felt like a racing heart. Usually my resting hr is in the mid 60's, and when I woke up last night it was 110. It lasts about a minute, then goes back down to normal. Happens once a day or so. Very strange.

allthingsgo · August 2018

@BourbonBiscuits I was just thinking the same thing about my bump today too. It’s weird but I think I remember it happening with DD too.

shellperry · August 2018

The smell of chicken is going to be the death of me. Any time I smell it I spend the next 30 minutes with my head in the toilet

etnyah · August 2018

@shellperry I felt totally fine yesterday and I pan fried salmon for dinner. Our apartment is small and the oven fan isn’t the best, so the whole place reeked of fish for the rest of the day. I don’t know if the smell made me nauseous or if the nausea came on its own, either way it sure made everything a hundred times worse. I feel your pain.

okayestmom12 · August 2018

Let me add insane heartburn to my list. It’s like swallowing fire all day, every day.

I had reflux/ heartburn with both previous kids but this kicked in hard and fast.

Tums 4 life.

lifeofboggs · August 2018

Tums is my life right now.

also when will this whole second trimester glow start!!! I’m so sick of being broken out so bad! Then I have to cover it with makeup which just makes it worse and it’s an endless cycle

mommaofboy1 · August 2018

Less nausea pressure in my pelvis area and eating a LOT. Also i can barely sleep 8 hours a night and crazy dreams every single night

AshleySparkle720 · August 2018

My hair has started to fall out and I'm really glad no one judges my messy bun. Haha

danixbanani24 · August 2018

Crazy/scary dreams almost every night. Hips are killing me already but I can still sleep on my stomach thank G. Coming down wth a cold or something too...fun times.

I am wishing you ladies that are still so nauseous/sick some relief soon.

hannahbananas11 · August 2018

Last night I had a dream that DH was running a race and had to give the race director a saliva sample right before the race to test for EPO. Because of course. And the race director determined, from an analysis of my husband's saliva, that I'm expecting twins. Specifically a boy and a girl. So then I spent the entire race arguing with the race director that I'm only having one baby because my ultrasound said so.

eggsandwich2019 · August 2018

@becks_726 my tailbone is killing me too. And I'm generally kind of achey all over, and hungry most of the time. Sending positive vibes to all of your ladies still dealing with nausea and vomiting, I hope you feel better soon!

mechekitty · August 2018

@madreofdragons I do the exact same. I consistently wake up every morning at 3, and then my body gets so restless that I can't go back to sleep.

JamieH2000 · August 2018

Anyone else having issues going pee? When I wake up in the middle of the night and my bladder is really full, sometimes I just can’t “go” even tho I really have to? It’s almost like I have to squeeze muscles when normally it’s just a mental switch? Perhaps the baby is squishing my bladder or urethra? I’m going to talk to my OB on Thursday but thought I would check with you ladies. I’m only 15 weeks on wed so I would be surprised it was the baby at this point.

eggsandwich2019 · August 2018

@JamieH2000 this happens to me during the day mostly, I usually make myself wait to pee because I feel like I need to all the time but then nothing happens. It's a delicate balance because if I wait too long I get pretty uncomfortable like my RLP is being enhanced or something, blergh

becks_726 · August 2018

@JamieH2000 that happened to me earlier today! Very odd sensation...

lifeislove87 · August 2018

@JamieH2000 it does happen to me as well but usually only when I’m dehydrated, if I stay well hydrated I’m good

BourbonBiscuits · August 2018

@JamieH2000 I don’t know how to explain this, but try sort of rocking your body around when you’re peeing. Like I lean my hips forward and then back and to each side and it helps sooo much. It didn’t happen with DS until later, but it’s happening earlier this time around. I don’t know why it helps but it always works for me!

ohsunnydays · August 2018

Add me to the achy tailbone club

JamieH2000 · August 2018

@eggsandwich2019, @becks_726, @lifeislove87, @bourbonbiscuits- thanks ladies! Always nice to know I’m not alone! I have found that the rocking around does help! I’m hoping maybe once the baby pops up and out a little it will get better. What a weird feeling tho and I don’t like it!
