@kopp5988 ๐๐ 100% same thought SMH was a sound, and it did make sense based on the context of where I'd see it. Sometimes I'll shake my head even now at hubs and say SMH lolย
@purplefan1im also so hot. Our heat index was 105 yesterday. I have to bring a fan to work with me even though itโs air conditioned.ย @pintobean77 I totally relate. I will eat a full meal and be hungry 2 or 3 hours later. Itโs Ike I can never get enough. Iโm always snacking.
In the hospital with heart palpitations that just won't quit. They started last night and I have a flutter every 1-5 mins, everything looks good so far but they can't really figure out why I'm getting such frequent flutters. I quit caffeine weeks ago and hadn't been getting them, now this. I'll update later โ๏ธ trying to chill
@ABabyMarshall the heart flutters super suck! I hope they figure out what it is or a way to get them to stop for you. I have them pretty consistently but my doc said it is normal. Let us know what they say!
@ABabyMarshall I hope you are feeling better! Those heart palpitations can be very frightening. I get them sometimes, but certainly not as frequently as you're describing. Thinking of you!
Thanks for your words of support ladies,they discharged me but I still don't really have answers. I have an appt with a MFM cardiologist in 3 weeks ๐ this better not still be a problem by then. Doctors didn't seem alarmed as everything else normal but I find it really unsettling..
@ababymarshall That is super unsettling! I hope it doesn't continue to be a problem for you. It would definitely freak me out too.ย
@purplefan1 I hadn't been feeling abnormally hot, but the last couple of days have been bad. Last night I had a hot flash in the middle of the night and then couldn't go back to sleep. I felt like my room was on fire...meanwhile MH was sleeping under like 3 blankets -_- I also feel so sweaty no matter what. I'm in AC or shade virtually all day. So annoyingggg!ย
I remember feeling this tired first trimester but I thought my belly had to get bigger before I was this tired.ย Baby must be going through a growth spurt or something because I have 0 energy.
Been feeling great since week 14 but I'm randomly super sick this morning (23 weeks) - perhaps morning sickness has made a return with a vengeance?! Worst morning yet!
Anyone have to do a fluid challenge? I called the Dr because I have some bad back pain and cramping, and even though I drink what they say is the necessary amount of water, they wanted me to do one just to be sure. Fingers crossed it works and I don't end up having to go in....
Last week I had a blood clot come out from my nose and then yesterday another small spontaneous nose bleed. I can't remember the last time I had a nose bleed. Anyone else?
@emeraldcity1214 it's not really a pass/fail thing. They wanted me to drink an exorbitant amount of water to see if it helped my cramping, which it did not. So, currently I am getting an NST.ย
@emeraldcity1214 everything looked fine with baby and me. They swabbed for infection and otherwise they said it could just be stretching and such. It's a relief.ย
I think I inadvertently dehydrated myself yesterday because I had like debilitating pain in my right side. Once I got myself off the floor I did my own water challenge.ย It is amazing how helpful it is to drink the water even if it does mean living in the bathroom for the next 2 hours.ย
@ABabyMarshall - I had that with one of my pregnancies.ย I had to buy a humidifier for work because my office was too dry.ย ย
I actually bought a big 44oz water bottle the other day with the idea that it will help me drink more water.. you guys are reminding me to break that out today and use it.ย
@ABabyMarshall I had a lot of nosebleeds in my first pregnancy. It sucked, and would just happen at the most random moments.ย
Got a call today that I apparently have bacterial vaginosis. They said it's pretty common in pregnancy and prescribed meds. Made the mistake of googling though...
@dani_0921 yes, my doctors told me the same thing but were surprisingly lax about my care and follow up. Not sure what they prescribed you but if it's the intravaginal stuff, watch out for yeast infection. Since it's so localized it can kill off even the good bacteria down there and become perfect place for yeast.
ย You're getting treated for it and that's what's important! I'm sure you'll be fine and just look our for any troubling signs
Oh man, I don't know if I am dehydrated and cramping or if the baby is just in a super awkward position and stretching but over the last 4 days I have had random bouts of pain that causes me to double over.ย
I have been going easy on my work outs if I work out at all as a result, but geeze 3rd trimester.ย I am suppose to have another 2-3 weeks of freedom before you start!
@Dancer688 I have noticed some pretty big movements. Some that cause me discomfort for sure so it is possible the babyโs position. Might be something you want to discuss with your OB though.ย
I had BV I think twice (maybe once. Time blurs things) during my last pregnancy. The biggest concern is if you DONT get it treated so getting the swab and following all of the medication requirments should make you good to go. Glad you got checked out. And I agree to watch out for yeast infections. No fun especially in pregnancy. I started using probiotics any time i or my daughter are on antibiotics. You just have to space out when you take the antibiotic and when you take the probiotic and dont take them at the same time.
Hope it gets cleared up. The BV used to make me feel like I had terrible pressure and discomfort!ย
Last night I ended up having to take a Zophran. I was seriously so sick. Plus my hips were hurting so bad I could barely get up from a sitting position. My hurt burn was killing me. I basically slept sitting up for the first half of the night. Iโm only 23 weeks, Iโm scared for what 3rd trimester is going to bring.ย
Plus, I think he has had a growth spurt because my stomach is noticeably bigger and so are his movements. Sometimes I can feel him down at my cervix and way at the top of my bump all at the same time. When Iโm sitting, he moves nonstop, which I love and makes me want to be a couch potato! ๐
Anyone else getting nesting urges already? I want to clean all the things, but of course i am also still exhausted.ย My Hemoglobin came back a little low, so maybe my OB will recommend some iron to help and my energy will improve?
@drama_llama ๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ I've cleaned and reorganized our closet,ย the hall closets, the pantry, and partof the garage and office. Mostly alone, cause my poor husband doesnt know to help with my crazy cleaning spree. Next up is the chicken coop and kitchen cupboards.ย
@drama_llama - I cleaned out our donation closet and actually took the stuff to goodwill and turned it back into a coat closet.ย I was so proud haha.
Next on my list is cleaning out the fridge and freezer but I have to wait until the day before trash day otherwise the garage is going to smell to much for me to go in it :Pย
@drama_llama me! I've been nesting for weeks now since we pulled out all DS's old baby gear and started setting up the nursery. I wish I had more to do right now, my desire to nest is strong!
Maybe you guys who are nesting can come over and do my house, haha. I did wash a bunch of baby clothes but putting them away.... this is the tough part.ย

@ABabyMarshall hahaha seems like a lot of people were confused by it! Makes me feel better about myself
