February Symptoms

Is this the month we all magically feel better?
Who could say.

and_peggy · February 2022

I had a massive headache all day and the day before. I don’t know if it was from that or what but I threw up all my dinner last night. Silly me for thinking we were past that.

@and_peggy maybe it was just the last day of January giving us the middle finger? I was so nauseated and not hungry. Then I forced myself to eat the one thing that sounded good and even that didn’t sound good. I went to bed feeling like I could puke at any min. Here’s to February and 2nd tri approaching!

and_peggy · February 2022

@wigglyicecream must have been. After 6 Tylenol my headache is gone but I stopped the aspirin because of interactions.

Yes! I start 2nd tri on Sunday🙌🏻

wisewitch222 · February 2022

I HOPE SO!!!

aukeev · February 2022

@and_peggy I wish! So far I've been up all morning super nauseated.

Question for you ladies: Does your OB/do you consider second tri week 13 or week 14? I've heard both!

mdfarmchick · February 2022

@aukeev mine leans 13 weeks. But is really weird in my mind… first trimester 12-13 weeks. Second trimester until 30 weeks. Third from 30 weeks on. It’s not scientific. It’s just how it feels for me 🤣🤣🤣

and_peggy · February 2022

@aukeev I don’t know what my dr says but I went all last week thinking I was ending the first tri at week 12/starting 2nd tri at week 13 and then all my apps told me I was a week off. So I was gutted. Officially will hit 14 weeks Sunday so I’ll start counting it then 😆

tmartin014 · February 2022

I am 12 weeks and the nausea is back with a vengeance today 🤢 I really thought I was done with this

darkrose88 · February 2022

@any_peggy I was hoenstly convinced second tri started at 13 weeks, but all my apps say 14 too... thankfully we are almost at that finish line. I'll be 14 on Saturday.

starkette · February 2022

@and_peggy same boat! Hit 14 weeks next sunday which is the official start of the second trimester. Trippy!

My boobs have been super painful lately. Stabbing pains, mostly in the evenings. And I lifted my 3 year old yesterday and strained something in my lower abdomen, like my ligaments. Felt like I pulled a muscle but it seems okay today.

bridgiebee82 · February 2022

@starkette today is Student Appreciation Day for Catholic Schools Week. My sister and I co-chaired the committee. So I've been on my feet running around like a maniac all day. I closed my rings on my watch before lunchtime. The Round Ligament Pain struggle is real! I feel that in my soul. And my abdomen. I can't wait to go to bed tonight. Lol

and_peggy · February 2022

@darkrose88 I stop keeping track of weeks if it weren’t for apps. 😆

paytonpedro · February 2022

@starkette stabbing pains in your boobs? I’m having this too and I’m constantly like “omg is that my heart? I’m dying!” But it’s just my boobs 🤣

wigglyicecream · February 2022

+1 to random stabbing pains in my boobs. A lot of times it likes to be my nipples lol

itsme215 · February 2022

+2 on the boob stabbing. Nobody warned me about that fun symptom…

wisewitch222 · February 2022

@bridgiebee82 +1 for Catholic Schools Week being exhausting. My first grader came out of school in tears today because he didn't get Bingo at their school-wide game of Bingo this afternoon. 🙄

bridgiebee82 · February 2022

@wisewitch222 what a bummer.. I dont even know when we are doing school wide bingo because our admin is so disorganized and changed everything all around. For teacher appreciation day, we have to come up with our own activities. Lmaoooo

wisewitch222 · February 2022

@bridgiebee82 school-wide bingo still had to be in their classrooms zooming with the principal calling numbers from the office like last year, which makes me a little sad because it's normally in the cafeteria, but he doesn't know any different because he's only done it two years anyway. I hope cafeteria bingo is back next year. And I hope you get a free lunch at least on teacher day! I appreciate you!

bridgiebee82 · February 2022

@wisewitch222 thanks! We are getting free lunch from the home & school association tomorrow so that's cool. For teacher day, we have to come up with our own activities like a get to know you kahoot or something.... I may just have them write a note to a teacher that has made a difference to them, play games, and watch a movie. It's a half day.

coco2787 · February 2022

Ugh I ate one taco for dinner and drank an Izze and I’m so full I feel like I’m going to explode 🤢

and_peggy · February 2022

@coco2787 also had an izze for dinner. Love them!

bridgiebee82 · February 2022

@coco2787 @and_peggy I love the grapefruit izze. Now I have to go to Chipotle tomorrow and get one.

mdfarmchick · February 2022

What is izze?? Also, I don’t understand why the universe hates me but the shake machine was broken at BK tonight. 🙄😆

bridgiebee82 · February 2022

@mdfarmchick an izze is a specialty flavored soda. I'm so sorry about your shake.

and_peggy · February 2022

@mdfarmchick I’d say it’s more like a sparkling juice. Unlike soda, there’s no caffeine.

starkette · February 2022

Alright. I'm having to pee like every hour. This is gonna be a long pregnancy.

meagan822 · February 2022

Symptoms that are more recent and beyond the nausea:
I’m drinking sooo much water (and I was already pushing a gallon a day.) Last night I drank 48 oz between going to bed to read and sleep and this morning when my husband was leaving for work, and I asked him to refill!🤣
I don’t have face acne, but I’ve been getting some on my back and neck, that I think is from pregnancy.

I’ve been sooo tired.

itsme215 · February 2022

@starkette me too. I’m so tired of peeing all the time and especially having to get out of my nice warm bed to go in the middle of the night!

@meagan822 I’ve been getting random pimples on my neck and back too! My eczema, which has been pretty nonexistent for years, is also flaring up so that’s just lovely.

starkette · February 2022

@meagan822 and @itsme215 oh the breakouts are so bad. Pregnancy glow is a lie! I have red irritated skin and so many little red dots. Not quite pimples but definitely close enough.

sarahdaley11 · February 2022

10 weeks and 3 days over here and this week the nausea has hit hard during my night shifts. I don’t know what to do- I’m an RN so I can’t be eating all the time and sometimes that doesn’t even help. My body clock is so thrown off by night shift and pregnancy and crap sleep that it doesn’t know what to do.

The acne is also real and I’m still struggling with how exhausted I feel all the time. Hoping this is just a phase..

paytonpedro · February 2022

@sarahdaley11 you’re probably right at the peak! Can you suck on a hard candy at work? I’ve found that helped me when I couldn’t be constantly snacking. I hope this all starts to ease for you really soon!!

wine_mama_03 · February 2022

Super bad headache since 3pm yesterday. Took Tylenol, napped, took magnesium before bed, now trying some caffeine. Going to try to get more water in me today too, probably since I napped last night, I didn't get my usual water intake and made it worse. And if none of that works, thanks to you all, it will be pizza night.

mdfarmchick · February 2022

This is the second day that I felt like I wasn’t killed with the desire to nap and rest. The first trimester exhaustion is so real to me every time. Yesterday I started working on sorting my house back into some semblance of order from survival mode and today we ran around with my sister all day. The nausea, headaches and food aversions mingled with cravings are all still alive and well. But my energy isn’t quite so low so I’m happy. Lol.

bridgiebee82 · February 2022

Peeing. All. The. Time. I just got home from. Trader Joe's, ran to the bathroom. I switched a load of laundry while MH put away the groceries. No I have to pee again! I'm just barely 12 weeks! It's only gonna get worse, I know! Lol

cas060 · February 2022

12w3d and I am SO exhausted. I went to bed at 745pm and got up at 730 am. By noon I needed an hour nap... had another 45m at 245 and its 5 now and I'm having a hard time. Wth! 🥱

starkette · February 2022

@bridgiebee82 SAAAAAME. Got up to pee 3x last night and I'm peeing like every hour. I don't remember it starting this early! Lol.

@cas060 I'm exhausted only a few hours after waking up! I could easily nap right now. Ugh. For someone who's cutting out all caffeine, this is agony.

mdfarmchick · February 2022

I’m doing 10-15 minutes of deep cleaning at a time in the kitchen today and for some reason I feel short of breath… I’m also back to being so so tired.

paytonpedro · February 2022

@cas060 is their iron in your prenatal? I felt that way in my first pregnancy and there wasn’t iron in my prenatal. Turned out I was super anemic. Once I started taking an iron supplement I feel totally better!

cas060 · February 2022

It does! My bloodwork from a week or so ago had me at 56 or so.. so, on the low side but atleast in range. I still have a lot of food aversions and liquid gutts.. so I imagine thats part of the issue. Covid crossed my mind also 🤔

bridgiebee82 · February 2022

@paytonpedro I'm going to ask my OB that at my visit on Wednesday. I'm super cold and super exhausted. Granted, it's winter and I'm a FTM, but I should be able to not nap every single day... good call!
