How are you feeling? Finally feeling better. Tons of food aversions, but loving salad and sweets. Also drinking my coffee regularly and finally not bloated. Second trimester making a late entrance (and hopefully staying!).
Raves/Rants: The back pain is real and very early this time, I expected it earlier this time but jeez. Also very swollen feet if I’m on them all day. Dreading cooking all day Thursday.
Questions:
GTKY (stolen from Group 3): What’s your most-missed item, food, or drink while pregnant?: Sushi! I indulge once in a while, but not as often as I’d like.
How are you feeling? So much better! I was actually baking again this weekend, and my husband looks at me and says “You’re back”
Raves/Rants: Just happy to be off Wednesday through Sunday this week ☺️
Questions: I actually have none for the first time lol
GTKY (stolen from Group 3): What’s your most-missed item, food, or drink while pregnant? Italian hero! I’m going to be so jealous of everyone enjoying antipasta over these next few holidays!
How are you feeling? Mostly good. Still intrigued by these nodules I feel on my abdomen. I posted it under Nov symptoms, I had all my mom friends feel it at Friendsgiving, and I emailed my Dr. No one can tell me what it is 🤷🏾♀️ The nurse replied to my email, not my doctor, and she recommended I call for same day appointment but I was busy today. Still debating if I should go in. It’s not painful and their not growing. I’m just really curious what these are (they kind of feel like the bumps in your boob so I’m thinking they’re fat deposits under my thinning skin).
Raves/Rants: The thought of being pregnant is still so crazy to me. How am I growing a mini human? I have two skeletons in my body. I’m technically carrying my grandchildren now.
Questions:
GTKY (stolen from Group 3): What’s your most-missed item, food, or drink while pregnant? I’ve been social lately and I’m really missing wine. I’ve recently noticed that baby has changed my tastebuds and I no longer like waffles/pancakes. I thought it was just 1st trimester change in appetite, but I’ve tried them again and they don’t taste right. It’s for the best, but I’m bummed.
@drkoyya The bumps on your breasts (around the areola) are called Montgomery’s tubercules and they help lubricate the breast/nipple when you’re nursing to prevent dried and cracked nipples. I’ve never heard of nodules under the skin around the stomach. That might be something you want to get checked.
@rox7777 I’ll definitely get it checked. It’s just a matter of when. They’re not painful and not growing so I’m not trying to worry. It is very strange tho. They don’t feel like Montgomery’s tubercle, they feel like the normal bumps in your breast when you give yourself a breast exam.
@drkoyya I have no idea what the bumps could be, but if a medical professional recommended that you be seen right away then I would get seen. Just because they don’t cause pain doesn’t mean they wouldn’t be a cause for concern. Could be nothing, but I would still get checked out.
@mokay19 The nurse didn’t say that I needed to be seen right away. If she did, I would’ve gone to the ER immediately. She just said “you can try to schedule an appointment tomorrow if your concerned, but as long as your not experiencing preterm labor signs it’s not urgent”. Yesterday just wasn’t good because I was too busy at work and I teach a night class. I do plan to get it checked out. It’s just a matter of when my doctor has another available appointment.
@drkoyya I took this line “ she recommended I call for same day appointment” to mean that she recommended you to have an appointment that day and be seen by the doctor then....
@mokay19 Sorry, poor choice of words on my part. I was initially trying to paraphrase but I see how it originally came off as an urgent request. It wasn’t. I’ll keep you all updated with what it is once I get an appointment.
