@danixbanani24 no, I tried calling labour and delivery to see if there would be another OB there, but they just said they can’t give medical advice over the phone. I live in a small town so my GP is only in a couple of days a week
@lifeislove87 can you call your OB office and talk to the nurse on staff? Or is the office closed since your OB is gone? If not and if it continues to be very painful I would head to urgent care or ER to be safe. It could just be growing pains (I’ve heard lightening crotch mentioned on here before which sounds similar) but better to get it check out just in case.
@sjnsjnsjn I literally think of you every morning during my 3 am insomnia. It's so consistent, I've actually become kind of zen about it. But it's definitely doing in my brain power, particularly between 5 and 7 pm, right when I should be feeding myself. Hang in there...
So far this pregnancy I only get the painful, gut crampy “hey I’m tired of being constipated, let’s poop” feeling when I’m effing sleeping. I already had to get up at 3 to check my my blood sugar. If my gut could hold off until 8am that’d be greeeaaat.
Ended up going to the ER, because things started getting more intense. So far everything is fine with the baby/my cervix/fluid. Looks like I have a raging UTI, although it doesn’t feel like a UTI
That sounds horrible @lifeislove87! I’ve never had those symptoms with a UTI either, maybe it’s just worse than a normal one? UTI’s are the absolute worst, hopefully antibiotics will clear it up right away. I’m glad everything is fine with baby though!

I think I might have to give up coffee. Not because I think it’s bad, but I had half a cup this morning and I’ve peed nine times in two hours. So tired of going to the bathroom!

@lifeislove87- Glad you got it checked out! @becks_726- Sorry that you're on that schedule too. Today at least I just gave up around 5 and experienced the miracle of an hour to myself for breakfast and whatnot. #lemonade
yikes @lifeislove87 , uti when not preg is bad enough.. I cant even imagine when preg. Hope the antibiotics kick in quickly!
The runs are back for me as of this morning... yay?? Also, I got home from work and my L ankle was ballooned right up. Called the MW, waiting to hear back if I should be concerned, my bp is fine though, so it's elevated and Im drinking water... man my feet are ugly when fat and I'm only 20w as of tomorrow.
Omg @cass06_07, that sounds awful. i'm happy to report I got a night off the insomnia. Woke up in the middle of the night to pee AND WENT RIGHT BACK TO SLEEP! It's a miracle. 🙏
@sjnsjnsjn glad you slept better last night! I like to joke that baby takes after my husband and wakes up early (when I have to pee in the middle of the night or early morning) but also is like me and is a good sleeper.
I guess this is more of a"fun" symptom. My crazy dreams have continued to get crazier (chased by a stranger while eating gelato with 2 people from high school, steamy scenes at sunset with my husband -this time). I've also had dreams this week of baby being born and one changing a diaper that revealed baby's gender. We're not finding out though so I'm not sure if this is my subconscious telling me I really want a boy or just my mind playing tricks on me because it's definitely a girl. Who's good at dream interpretation?
ugh, was up to an 8 pound gain last week... and now back to only 6.4lbs. Oh well I guess we shall see what the MW says this week... at least baby measured on track at the a/s.
Never thought i'd ever have trouble gaining weight! I'm sure it's only temporarily and Ill start packing it on soon.
@jessier19 I am with you on this cold it sucks! My 2 year old has it too and DH is the one who gets to stay home with him and lay around all day while I am here at work feeling like crap
I sneezed this morning while laying in bed and it pretty much paralyzed me. The PAIN was unbelievable. I am so scared to sneeze now. I stopped the second one, I had to continue laying down for 5 minutes before the pain subsided, it seems to be in those "ligaments" on the left & right.
I have had so much difficulty finding a comfortable position to sleep. I'm hoping the snoogle that is on its way to me is a lifesaver it I'm not holding my breath....
@eggsandwich2019 that's a rotten combo you've got... I hope both respond to treatment quickly.
@hannahbananas11@hnbergeron i had horrible heartburn and acid reflux after eating grapes today. I had the same "pregnancy is weird" thought today. LOL It absolutely is
I get such bad back oain towards the end if the day. And my belly hurts. Not stomach but my actual belly. Cant wait to see whats in store for me when I get even bigger
All you snoogle lovers: what covers do you recommend? I have a jersey one but it is rough in spots due to piling from washing. Right now I have the top and bottom covered with pillow cases.

I had a terribly intense week at work this week, and was so looking forward to this weekend. But now I have a raging cold. I am so done with this.
