@rooonilwaazlib I typically have a few BH in the late afternoon/evening. Not painful or scaring me yet, but a little irritating. I figure it’s just my body responding to everything I’ve done throughout the day.

@kmvisioli agree they're mostly irritating! Like all of a sudden, my belly inflates to rock-hardness and then deflates. Not super comfortable!

The last few days I've had intense heartburn and a gazillion Braxton Hicks. Last night I noticed a lot of pressure and my hips hurt. That pain has continued today and I noticed a little mucus this morning (cue freak-out). I had my biweekly this afternoon and she said I was still long and closed but she could definitely feel pressure from baby's head. I was super excited to make it longer than last time but I'm starting to think I might not make it all that much longer she told me to take it easy so I'm putting myself on bedrest when I'm not working and will be beginning to get all my work stuff in order this week. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Exhaustion is my main complaint. I am so tired all the time. I’m sleeping in 2 hour chunks. I have no idea what to do. I wish I could take a nap every day to help, but work gets in the way of that. Perma-zombie over here.
@rooonilwaazlib I get BH all day every day. The other day I was at the grocery store for an hour and was in a contraction the entire time. I had to call DH to come help me bc I just couldn't finish out the trip. If I walk too far or too long, I get them. If I'm laying around, I get them. If I'm dehydrated, I get them.
Is anyone else starving?! I just had breakfast an hour ago but i'm having hunger pains already. I'll had as bagel which usually keeps me full until lunch. Ive been really hungry lately. I'm assuming it's because he's putting on weight in these last few weeks?

This has been me for the past month. Coincidentally, I gained 12 pounds in 5 weeks, even though the majority of my food was from healthy stuff. The hunger is finally dying down , which I am thrilled with as I can't afford another huge bump in weight like that. Doctor seemed unconcerned regarding the weight gain which made me want to hug the man; I was ready for a huge lecture and he said weight gain in pregnancy shouldn't be a topic people are so militant about if you arent eating bon bons all day.

Yes! I had breakfast at 7 am, hungry by 8- waited until 9 for a snack; starving by 11- had lunch at noon and then was hungry again..... I just drank a bunch of water and hoping that helps, but I think it might be snack time again soon!
@leighbrek that was me up until 2 days ago. Ive not been hungry or have had room in my stomach for food at all. The last two days I've felt like i'm starving though.
That is interesting @galactickates. You're a few days ahead of me, so maybe the hunger is coming! Maybe baby dropped for you? I'm searching for reasons! lol
I have no idea @leighbrek but you're making me laugh. It's making me nervous. I hope i'm not hungry like this for the next two months!! Dangerous when pie will be present!
Anynody else having burning itching armpits? I'm starting to think I'm becoming allergic to my deodorant. I couldn't go to sleep last night beautiful I was constantly itching my armpits.
@Jackiemxoxo is it a nerve pain, like tingling or burning on the outside of one thigh, or sharp stabbing feelings? that could be meralgia paresthetica, which I've had since my first pregnancy and which has gotten much worse the further along I get. Standing or lying on that side can make it worse (at this point for me most things make it worse honestly....). Talk with your dr, if that's what it is there are lidocaine patches or even shots you can get that are safe during pregnancy and might give you some relief.
@dotty552, I have had nerve pain before but I don't think it is that. This one seems more of a sharp pain that comes and goes. It doesn't seem positional or anything.
@dotty552, thanks. I am thinking that I wished I exercised more before pregnancy because all this extra weight just pushes on everything and makes it uncomfortable! Not too much longer! I hope you get relief too.
I literally cannot concentrate at work on anything that I should be...and there's a lot I should be! I do like 1-2 productive things per day and the rest is spent doing IDK what! Pregnancy brain/Pregnancy ADD for realz over here! OOPS!

@rooonilwaazlib SAME. But I spend most of the time not doing the 1-2 productive things on TB or my registry or Pinterest. I also signed up for all my classes, preregistered at the hospital, and ordered my breast pump through insurance at work. Then when I get home I lay on the couch & eat. Lol employee of the year!
I had a long week at work out of town (last work travel, yay!) with lots of meetings and two nights in a hotel; and man my stomach was hard almost for two days straight it was so uncomfortable..... thank goodness work is easing up after this week, I didn’t think I’d make it at times! I had a 3 hour drive home and had BH almost the whole time!
Well in a couple if days I am going to be 34 weeks. My symptoms are baby has dropped, head engaged, which means no sleep for me. Lots of pressure down there and this past weekend I have lost parts of my mucous plug.
This has happened to me before, so I know what to expect, either it's soon or in 4-6 weeks. With my third the same happened and 4 weeks later I had her. I also have nasty hemmoroids, which have come back. So, I am feeling blah, actually. Next week my husband leaves to go to Florida for a week and a half. I just need to hold on a little longer.
Since this morning I’ve had some seriously awful nausea and generally just feeling tired and gross. I’ve also been having cramping like I’m constipated, but I’m the opposite of constipated. Baby girl is moving around way more than usual too which is reassuring. I’d really like the nausea to go away though.

@DLpanda08 Awww, lame! I've also had an increase in cramping... apparently it's from uterus being stretched right out now, so baby moving just makes the uterus protest. Sooo close to the end now.
baby moves...uterus protests...braxton hicks contractions ensue...I can't breathe...I stand up and bend over in cat/cow position...baby moves...uterus protests.
It's a vicious cycle!

If I survive this pregnancy without a cracked rib I will be SHOCKED. Little guy just looooove kicking me in the ribs while I least expect it. I got one without warning while speaking in a meeting this afternoon and doubled over in pain mid-sentence. Every time I think he's lowered out of my rib cage he just comes right back up the next day. (Not that the lightning crotch when he's sitting low is super fun either). I have a feeling this is going to be a long 6 weeks...
This lightening crotch is not fun at all. I never understood why all my pregnant friends were so miserable the last month of pregnancy but I completely get it now. This little girl is welcome to show up any time now. I’m ready.

My left hip was in so much pain last night I couldn’t sit down. I literally had to hobble around and then take a hot shower. It lasted like 45 minutes! Ugh.
@sushilove15 the nighttime hip pain is the absolute worst! I’m so sorry you’ve been dealing with that. The one thing that *thankfully* provided some relief for me was stacking pillows between my legs AND feet so that the legs were completely separated. I came across that tip for pregnant women from an orthopedic doc, and apparently if your feet are crossed even with the pillow between your legs it’ll still throw off your hip alignment and keep the pressure on your nerves. Just a thought in case that helps you! (It’s not entirely gone for me by doing that, but WAY better)
Anyone getting a weird, sore crotch/vaginal feeling? It’s especially when I get up. Also hip soreness.
Also a lot of acid reflux . I literally threw up in my mouth a little bit trying to put my shoes on this morning. Putting my shoes on is the hardest struggle of the morning, ha.
@merostomata Yes to both, plus a lot of pelvic pressure! super funnnn

@merostomata I am going to try that!! Thank you! The pain is unreal sometimes. Thanks for the advice!! I also have soreness in my crotch area if I try to stand from sitting. Feels like it’s splitting apart down there. It probably is I hope you get some relief!
@merostomata So many weird crotch pains. Baby pushing on a nerve... baby sending in the lightning, sometimes a weird scratchy feeling down there (got it checked - nothing medical), baby playing the drums down there... Truly bizarre.
Yes @merostomata! It feels like my pelvis is going to rip apart every time I go from sitting or laying down to standing. And sometimes it's just generally sore as well while walking. Baby is confirmed head down so I think there's a lot of pressure down there!
