It's Thursday...any symptoms?

[mrsdee1982]

Morning ladies. I am still Acid Reflux's bitch. It's awful. I wish this on none of you. I am tired of having to spit out mouthfuls of stomach acid.

Oh, and my feet and ankles are starting to swell to epic levels. Last night my right foot was super swollen and then went numb. I turned to Dr. Google (not because of the swelling, because of the numbness). Of course it told me that it was either a totally normal symptom of pregnancy, or that I had preeclampsia and was going to stoke out.

I dug out our blood pressure cuff, and my blood pressure was totally normal for me (I have always had blood pressure on the low side). I'm still going to call the OB when her office opens though, just for peace of mind.

I slept for 3 consecutive hours last night! Then probably 2 or 3 additional split up hours! I feel like I deserve a trophy and also feel like I can actually function today because that is the longest stretch of consecutive sleep I've gotten in over a month.. VICTORY

Baby is wobblin hard core as I drink my morning mocha and stare out the window at the stupid snow and daydream of the days when I lived in a place where winter didn't happen. I think between my disgust with the winter weather, homesickness for Louisiana and my friends, and the fact I've been cooped up not working since June, I might be struggling with a bit of depressed mood. I cried myself to.sleep last night, which is how I actually finally slept. I don't know if its enough to really seek help for since I really truly understand the "why" of how I'm feeling.. I think maybe I just could use some ideas and suggestions of how to keep myself occupied and busy and happy while stuck at home because of weather and an injury. Anyone?!

BUT I slept last night, and I can feel baby moving today, so really everything is A OKAY!

I think I got maybe 5 hours of good sleep last night....I couldn't get comfortable and kept having weird ass dreams. One was so bad I woke up, almost pissed myself and my heart was racing. And now I need all the noms...

I had a weird dream last night that I worked for some guy who made people kill their babies in exchange for success in their lives. It was super f'ed up (and mostly about sports players).

I also tried to roll over in bed this morning when I heard DD come in and my leg decided I should have another lovely charlie horse so I was crying and trying to explain to DD and DH what was happening while clutching my leg in agony.

I haven't slept well for the last two nights. The only thing I'm looking forward to about being out of town by myself for the next two nights is sleeping alone with no one snoring.

I also had my first BH contraction ever last night. Never once had them with DS so I actually found it fascinating to finally know what they feel like.

All the rib pain. This kid just will not move from under my right ribs. If the carpet in my office weren't so icky, I would lie flat on my back for a few minutes to kind of reset my spine. But given that our cleaners do not vacuum even if they say they do (yeah I see that Cheerio on the floor out front of the lunchroom that's been there for 5 months...), that's a no-go.

Other than that, doing pretty well. Maybe a little hyperemotional and a little homesick, but not too bad. Just wish it were Friday already...this week is dragging so badly!!

[junch817]

I am having some weird, uncomfortable pains while sleeping. It's right under my boobs, right about where the top of my belly starts. It almost feels like the underwire of my bra is cutting into me, because it hurts in a straight line, several inches long, but I'm not wearing a bra with underwire, just a sleep bra; and it's actually below where my bra line hits. It freaking kept waking me up all night last night it hurt so much. I don't remember having this happen with my first. I don't notice it as much throughout the day, mostly when I sleep. But it freaking hurts man!!! What the heck is it? And I'm pretty sure it's always on the left - I can't remember feeling the pain on the right side of my body. Any thoughts?

The weird dreams just don't stop. Last night I tried to have sex with a (very tall and handsome) stranger! I usually tell my DH about my crazy dreams, but I thought it might be best not to share this one with him. Haha

Also, I can't stop eating. So far today I've had a bowl of cereal, walnuts, a sandwich, a cup of soup and a small bag of cheetos. I'm about to go for some pineapple and blackberries next...

[kimberlyandthor2014]

I'm still struggling with fire-burps and serious lava flow in my digestive system. It is relentless! I may be the next Mother of Dragons...

And I also am having weird dreams all of the time now. Last night I dreamed that the new Bumpie Sneauxfleekers were being paid bonuses to report our posts lol!

[erbear]

My hips keep going numb at night. It's really annoying!

[lunalovegood]

Add me to the list of intense dreams. Last night I had a dream that I had already had the baby and that my grandpa who died when I was 18 came over to visit. It was crazy realistic, I could even smell him and woke up after he left in the dream totally sobbing. I'm still a little shaken up about it.

[mathistm]

Dreams here too. Last night I dreamed I was having sex with skinny Rob Kardashian and mid way through he turned into chubby Rob Kardashian. Uhh, what? I don't even know. I'm happy my dog let me sleep until 10 because I hurt all over the place. Still waking up at midnight and 3 every night but I fall right back to sleep once I get up and pee. I'm done with work for the week because one of my lovely co workers decided to come in with active influenza and my boss told me stay home. That works for me.

[redlipz]

Starting to get a little bit of heartburn and my pubic bone and hips hurt like a bitch but normal otherwise.

[ladymouse]

Heartburn, BH, exhausted, and I feel pretty (that's highly unusual for me)... That's about it.

Assuming this is a combo of symptoms and randoms, and I have a random question.

Normally, if DH is late for work, he brings in donuts. He's planning on taking the morning of our AS off. Instead of donuts, I want to get a cookie cake that says "it's a (insert sex here)!" Assuming we find out (would also take a picture as the way to tell family who wants to know). Is that entirely too stupid to consider? Or just kinda cheesy?

Yesterday was my 31st birthday, and for some reason I was really down in the dumps. My co-workers surprised me with birthday cupcakes, my DH sent flowers to my work, he's getting my car detailed on Sunday (lame I know, but that's what I asked for lol) but I was still in this funk all day. Then to top it off, I had a break down when we went to bed. We live in a very old home that we are remodeling room by room as we have the money. We've done 2 rooms so far and still have a long way to go. We also don't have central heat and air at the moment... just a wood stove. Our bedroom is on the opposite side of the house, and it's normally pretty chilly in there. As I'm laying in bed, feeling sorry for myself, and freezing my ass off, I start sobbing. DH kept asking me what was wrong and I couldn't even talk I was crying so hard. I was so upset because all I could think was we are having a baby in 4 months and we can't even keep our bedroom warm. I was a hormonal mess last night. The baby's room will be nice and toasty, so I'm not sure what I was worrying so much about, but it sure had me upset!

On a brighter note, I finally bought one of those fancy pregnancy pillows and it has made a world of difference in my comfort level while sleeping! If you are having problems, I strongly suggest getting one!

I had a friggin' ridiculous leg cramp while watching TV last night. Fuuuuuuudge I don't want that to happen again soon.


And then this afternoon i ate half a box of quaker oat squares without thinking about it too hard. woo!

Happy Birthday for yesterday. Sorry you didn't have the best of birthdays but the cupcakes, flowers, and getting the present you asked for sounds pretty good The cold would've got to me as well. Hope you feel better today at 31yo+1 day!

I just want to sleep all day. I already called in sick this week and stayed in bed until 11.30am. I was GBCB'ing, FB'ing, Vibering and all phone related stuff for a good 2.5hours of that morning in bed. It was so what I needed.
