Re: Weekly Symptoms - Week of 01/10

  • 16 weeks tomorrow

    I don’t know if this is a symptom but I’ve out of the blue have gotten really dry skin. I don’t think it’s the cold since I use a heavy duty humidifier all the time. But it feels like I’m peeling from a sunburn. So weird! 
  • @mc0303 I have been extra dry too.  On my legs it doesn't even look like human skin.

  • @MelissaMay82 I’m with you! Almost 17 weeks and this weekend was horrible with feeling sick. Hopefully we are to the end. My hips and pelvis have been super achy also
  • 17 weeks and I’m still exhausted and I’ve been having a lot of headaches. I am feeling the baby some, though, so that’s exciting!!

  • @legallykate and @laurad75 glad I'm not alone. I have started being much more diligent about my kegels. Hoping it will help!

  • 19 weeks... Dear insomnia, you can stop now. Thanks. My stomach is still a bit off from the family bug this weekend. While I did not succumb to the vomiting my stomach is just "off". 

    My hip pain seems to have let up the last few nights. Now I'm having numbing in my shoulder if I sleep on one side too long. So that's keeping me up too. I can't win. 

    I think I am feeling some movement of LO but I can't remember what this feels like. What was I on four years ago is what I want to know. I feel like I was so ignorant to everything. Like blissfully unaware of everything (or so engrossed in my career that I forgot everything that happened). 

    And yes to the peeing while sneezing! Thank goodness I work from home and can change pants after that happens. 
  • Anyone else growing a bunch of new skin tags? I know this is a thing and think I had one or two pop up last time, but I have had like 5 new ones show up in like the last week and they are grossing me out  :s:

  • @mc0303 I feel you on the dry skin!

    19+5 today and starving all the time, feeling baby kick frequently, swollen ankles (already 😬), and back pain.  I am also having Braxton Hicks if I try to do to much manual labor or am on my feet too long.

  • I too sometimes pee when I sneeze or cough. When I was vomiting daily it was really bad. 

    I am exhausted and not sleeping great right now. I just cannot seem to find a pillow for my neck/head that doesn’t make me sore or give me a headache in the morning.
  • @legallykate I had a few skin tags my first pregnancy. I thought it was so weird! I haven't had any pop up, yet. 
  • @legallykate i haven't noticed any new skin tags yet so far. I have enough already that I dont want so they can just stay the hell away 😆
  • @legallykate - I have skin tags around my eyes and I always get new ones or the current ones get bigger every pregnancy. It's annoying, but they seem to shrink afterwards.
  • Thought I was feeling baby, and then I realized I had to fart 😂 not yet. 

    I've been feeling super queasy and gassy the past week and a half. Forgot to take my hydroxychloroquine yesterday and felt great- ate a bunch, was able to drink water, etc. Took the pill and almost instantly feeling bad again.  Maybe it will prevent me from gaining too much this time? 
  • Constipation is killing me. It's technically not from pregnancy, but the calcium supplements I decided to take (due to pregnancy...). I stopped for several days and felt better, so took one this morning and ugh...

    Took Colace, which barely seemed to help, so bought some prune juice and chugged a glass. That might have been a mistake...
  • @akoros I’m sorry about the constipation. I have to drink a glass of Metamucil every morning to stay regular plus a ton of water (which I know I should be doing anyways) daily. 
  • Thanks @dogmom5! I'll keep with the prune juice to use that up for now (but maybe just a half cup this time...), but will look into Metamucil. I've been trying to up my fiber intake, as well as water, but that hadn't helped much.
  • @akoros I feel like it took a week or so for the Metamucil to really work but it’s been helping. I just have to make sure to drink a lot of water or apparently the Metamucil can back fire and plug you up. Hope you find something that works soon! 
  • Thanks! 1/2 cup of prune juice mostly seems to be doing ok, though my stomach is super rumbly.
