What kind of weird stuff is going on with your body this week? Let us know!

megpants209 · October 2018

Sleep, my old friend, I’m sorry I ever took you for granted. Please come back.

That’s about it for me

my sciatic nerve hurts like a bitch but insomnia is the real MVP of slow torture.

hannahbananas11 · October 2018

Sleep is starting to abandon me, but not terrible yet. I just wake up at about 5 AM and can't fall back asleep.

My big thing today is heartburn! I never once had heartburn until this pregnancy, so this is new for me. Today it was so bad while I was driving to work that I thought I was going to puke, and the only thing I'd had to eat was frosted mini wheats! WTF, body?!

madreofdragons · October 2018

Everything leaves an aftertaste. Absolutely everything but water.

kayjay44 · October 2018

So fucking nauseous. Between the nausea/vomiting "just because" and the nausea/vomiting due to heartburn, I kind of want to die.

I'm just going to keep chewing on my crushed ice and hope for the best.

bww_0331 · October 2018

My hips and back have been awful the last couple days. Which I think has messed up RLP and all sorts of stomach muscle tension. It’s uncomfortable to walk. Way worse if I have to pee so I keep going to the bathroom nonstop.

AshleySparkle720 · October 2018

Heartburn and hip pain are the current worst symptoms I have. After a couple hours of activities my hips get so sore and ache.

sjnsjnsjn · October 2018

Heartburn, insomnia, LB pain, check check check. Good times 😳

catwoman8731 · October 2018

Is anyone else experiencing rib kicks yet? I didn’t think baby was big/high/strong enough yet, but something is giving me the WORST pain in that area behind my rib cage. It’s too early!!!

Sorry for the weird quote box - I couldn’t figure out how to copy/paste and I posted in last weeks thread by mistake.

hannahbananas11 · October 2018

Baby has been really chill the last few days, so I've only felt a kick here and there. It's making me anxious, but I know that it's still too early to be doing "kick counts", so I'll just have to wait and hope he's still fine in there. Sigh.

hnbergeron · October 2018

Uggg... Got so sick yesterday. Totally thought I was pass it but surprise...nope. in addition to my nausea and vomiting (at work and my hour drive home!) I got a migraine. Head pounding and vision issued. Hello my old friend. I hadn't had one is so long I forgot how onteint they are. Soon as I got home popped my zofran and passed out. Slept like 11hrs and feel much better today.

eggsandwich2019 · October 2018

@catwoman8731 not rib kicks, but after basically not feeling anything today I was feeling intermittent sharp pains in my belly/crotch area that I am pretty sure are baby. So much for feeling the baby being cute! My bff said she had the same thing when she first started feeling kicks. Also, I just learned that in the UK they refer to lightening crotch as "fanny daggers" - accurate.

etnyah · October 2018

Fanny daggers! That’s an incredible term. Kind of sounds like a weird superhero name.

becks_726 · October 2018

Two days ago my nipples became super sensitive again and now my boobs feel heavy. I'm on the verge of busting out of the last of my bras that still fit.

danixbanani24 · October 2018

I am also having a weird taste with everything I eat - super annoying.

Walking a lot/long distance is starting to give me tightening in the belly (BH probably) and massive leg pain. I’m going to Disney in two weeks so that should be good.

kayjay44 · October 2018

@hnbergeron - I had a migraine Saturday and I thank the lucky stars I didn't, for once, have to fight to get my meds prescribed. Normally OB/MWs are hesitant to prescribe what I take (the only thing that works) because there is no research, but both my other kids are fine so....

disneybaby84 · October 2018

so this time I learned pregnancy can cause dandruff.

keewee19 · October 2018

I pee alot. Like 10-12 times a day at work in an 8hr time. Which is somewhat of a problem because someone has to do my job for me while I go to the bathroom. I just feel bad going so often!

dcaron10 · October 2018

Definitely having the lower back pain. It feels almost like my tailbone is bruised and being on my feet all day at work and lifting and pulling on patients doesn’t really help. I also have been peeing a lot more recently.

sjnsjnsjn · October 2018

@danixbanani24- Is it metal? My mouth tastes like metal which is not a delicious thing at all..

cali1710 · October 2018

Lower back pain loves me. Need to see the chiro. I get to get an ultrasound tomorrow though so pretty pumped to see the babies again!

bellebaby221 · October 2018

It's only 9:00 and my legs are already crawling and I'm popping tums. Going to be another long night.

Sornusa · October 2018

The last 24 hours has been a fun assortment of baby kicking the back of my uterus, which feels fantastic (no), expanding rib pain that keeps me up at night (it never shows during the day! Why?!), and what I am assuming is some sort of evil mutant RPL/lightning crotch combo that won't quit. I didn't think it was supposed to be so constant? Maybe my ligaments are just extra un-stretchy or I'm growing The Hulk in there. I want wine. 🙁

conchispita · October 2018

I’ve been waking up between 3 and 6 am horny as hell. DH needs to get on my schedule or I’m gonna dieeeee

riatortillaxo · October 2018

Heartburn is still the death by me!
Weird one- on Sunday my right boob started leaking a tiny bit of liquid! I looked it up and I guess it can happen. Anyone else??

cas060 · October 2018

@hannahbananas11 , my baby's been super chill the last few days too. Was on the phone with my mom and got 2 super kicks though!

BourbonBiscuits · October 2018

I actually feel totally normal but I've had 4 different people over the past 24 hours tell me I look bad, all unsolicited. Thanks assholes. I was finally starting to feel good

becks_726 · October 2018

Wtf @BourbonBiscuits?! Some people.....

BourbonBiscuits · October 2018

@becks_726 I know! What is wrong with people. I actually put makeup on today because so many people told me I looked like garbage yesterday. And it still didn't work. Pregnancy glow is a myth, unless you're @kayjay44.

okayestmom12 · October 2018

Heartburn (per usual - at least the Rx meds my OB gave me Thursday seem to be working a TINY bit better than the OTC ones.0)

Hip pain in bed (used a pillow between my legs last night and that helped a bit.)

Crusty nips (belch.)

allthingsgo · October 2018

Crusty nips and hip pain here too even with a pillow and snoogle. I wake up so much at night because my hips hurt so much that I need to slowly switch sides. I also get a random crotch pop when I turn over sometimes. ??

kayjay44 · October 2018

Uh my glow is heartburn and nausea sweats. And lots of makeup.

Im really sick of throwing up every night due to heartburn.

smallbutmighty77 · October 2018

@catwoman8731my DD was a serious rib kicker. My Dr checked every apt once she was bigger, to make sure she hadn't broken them by the end. It can happen. She did bruise 2 of my ribs which made labor extra fun. This one so far is super mellow, and maybe moves once a day. Which, after a crazy active kicker is nice, and nerve wracking. Grass is greener, right.

kayjay44 · October 2018

@smallbutmighty77 - DD kicked me so hard while I was backing out of a parking spot that she cracked a rib and I crashed into a cement pillar. I feel you.

Im still not sure which was worse - laboring with a cracked rib or sever bronchitis and walking pneumonia.

wrensnest · October 2018

@BourbonBiscuits not glowing over here either, I feel like I look perpetually exhausted...which would be accurate. Also, people are rude!

A bit of an emotional wreck today for seemingly no reason. Haven’t really had mood swings up until this point, but today I just want to curl up in a ball and cry about everything. Maybe it’s the insomnia...

hannahbananas11 · October 2018

My hair has gotten even thicker during pregnancy, which is not welcome. I have a short pixie cut with already-thick, coarse hair that's wavy (but not wavy enough to look ~*beach wavy*~ if that makes sense). This morning I didn't have time to blow dry my hair, so this is me today:

danixbanani24 · October 2018

@sjnsjnsjn yes! A slight metallic taste ugh gross

did not sleep well at all last night. Tossed and turned from one side to the next. It’s too early for the uncomfortable sleeping to begin

katamca · October 2018

Add me to the not sleeping well club. DD woke up about 1 am with a nightmare (she was screaming.. it was heartbreaking) but thankfully she went right back to sleep. I was up from then on just about though with horrible hip pain. I have a body pillow that I sleep with between my legs but that's just not doing the trick so I'm going to have to get something else I think.

lzzfrancisco · October 2018

I feel so uncomfortable this week! I seriously feel like I'm 32 weeks not 22 weeks. Is this like a growth spurt, or is it really downhill from here on out?! I don't remember feeling this uncomfortable this early during my last pregnancy.

katamca · October 2018

@lzzfrancisco I feel the exact same way and thought that today. I didn’t feel this worn out or achy until much later in my first pregnancy.

danixbanani24 · October 2018

@lzzfrancisco same here. I’m like it’s too early in this pregnancy to be THIS uncomfortable
