Let's talk symptoms - Thursday

[onyx]

My throat is sore from throwing up this morning before I ate (lovely, I know), I'm still nauseous and all foods are repulsing, my tits hurt so bad, I'm bloated and look 20 weeks pregnant, my nose is better than a hounds, I can't stop peeing, and I'm emotional as hell. Also, I've gained 3 pounds. Like wtf. I barely get to eat and I am throwing up all the time; why am I already gaining weight!? Oh, well. Good news is I pooped this morning. Sorry for the tmi, but I'm pretty happy about it.

[mynameiscarrie]

onyx, congrats on your poop! I'm happy for your morning sickness but I'm sorry you feel so bad (that makes sense, right?)

My titties hurt. Increasingly more every day and they are firmer and fuller. I pee every 30-45 minutes but I'm not sure if that counts as "often" because I've always peed every hour or so (I drink a shit ton of water every day).

Still too early for other things, but I cannot STAND the smell of eggs right now.

[lycih]

So it seems like the only way to keep myself from puking is to eat all the GD time. Which, since I work from home now, is actually possible. I'm going to gain 200 lbs this pregnancy at this rate.

[onyx]

mynameiscarrie, makes sense! That's what my doctor told me. He said "that just means your hormones are working!" It's the silver lining, I guess. I feel you on the eggs. I have a major aversion to eggs and meat right now. The last three mornings my DS wanted scrambled eggs for breakfast and I literally gag through making them. I was cracking them this am and it touched me and you would have thought I was dying. Apparently a "protein" aversion is pretty common.

[hangryhedgehog]

Insomnia!!!! Wahhhh... Last time with DS I had really bad insomnia in the 3rd tri. Then I've spent 2 years cosleeping with the world's worst sleeper. Now insomnia this early?? Do. Not. Want.

[colinsfebmommy]

I am so sorry to all you ladies with morning sickness, that blows. I didn't get any with my first and so far fingers crossed nothing with this one. Today just sore tender ta-tas.

Me too...I was up at 4:45 this morning just because. And even though I'm exhausted during the day, I have to try really hard to go to sleep at night now. I don't remember this until 3rd tri from last time. Wtf?!?

[countingthestars]

Woke up last night and threw up a couple of times. I apparently don't get morning sickness its the middle of night sickness. This happened with DS quite a few times. Peeing alot and on and off sore boobs. Oh and this stupid phlegmy cough won't go away.

I rolled over in the middle of the night and the boob pain woke me up. Ouch! On the plus side, my new extra-supportive sports bra did an excellent job at the gym last night. The only downside is that sucker is really difficult to get on!

In case any of you are in the market, this is the one I bought after trying on about 10 of them and giving the bounce test in the dressing room. I am a C cup, rapidly approaching a D these days.

That stinks! I hope that doesn't keep happening to you! I'm an E right now and all of my bras are getting too small. I really don't know where to find bigger sizes! Especially pretty ones! Yes, I'm one of those who really enjoys and wants all the pretty bras.

Nausea is back on today, I enjoyed the last few days without it, even though I was going crazy because I felt like I was losing my symptoms. Feel like crap. TIRED. Omg I think I could sleep for 3 days straight and still be tired when I woke up. Boobs are sore and heavy. I feel like I have freaking weights on my chest or something. Still not a frequent pee-er yet, thankfully. But I'm really about to start working on my water intake (got a liter bottle in front of my face right now) so I'm sure that's all about to change. Still got some cramps.

ETA: I've woken up the last few nights around 3-4 AM to pee, normally don't do that. Then I toss and turn for the next couple hours till my alarm goes off.

[soultrane]

I was hit with a wave of nausea last night on my commute home. I pretty much ran into the house and demanded food, so my husband made me a quesadilla which I ate in approximately 5 seconds. Felt a lot better after that!

So I guess my only real symptom right now is needing to eat all.the.time. and becoming a nauseous monster if I can't.

[pantaloons55]

Another one here with insomnia, I was up from 12:30 til 3:30. Kill me. I was so restless. For the last day or so, I've had pressure (not really cramps though) in my lower abdomen which was radiating back to my tailbone. Irritating as hell.

Boobs are somewhat less tender, but still full and sore in spots, and nipples are still sensitive.

Passing waves of nausea are still coming and going and I have no interest in food. Just looking at some things is make me queasy, but fortunately no vomiting yet. I'm just sitting here looking at my lunch trying to will myself to eat it, but its slow going. I guess the protein aversion is hitting me too, but I have heard sometimes its actually lack of it that make the nausea worse, so I'll try and power through and see if I feel better after.

[sonpetitlapin]

I woke up this morning and knew today was not going to be a good day. Fatigue and complete exhaustion usually hits me after lunch. I woke up with it. Food Aversion is in full swing today. Nothing looks good. Nothing taste good. I just don't want food period. I can't decide if MS is creeping in too. BLAH. By back is killing me today. My boobs are full and heavy and my nipples are erect and sore. The boobs and nipples usually start hurting in the afternoon, but not today.

My boss knows I am pregnant. I am so tempted to ask him if I can leave early and finish working from home. But then I don't want to seem like a pussy.

But, I am beautifully pregnant!

Oh god with the nipples. Mine hurt so freaking bad and my H has this weird unjustified opinion that by touching them he can make them not hurt anymore. No just go away and do not touch my boobs or nipples and have mercy on him if he tries to take my bra off without permission first.

[sweetcali]

I'm in a terrible, awful mood for no reason. I'm just annoyed and irritated and wish everyone would leave me the fuck alone. Also, I just feel icky. Nothing I can pinpoint, but just icky all over. I need to go back to bed.

I don't remember in the past pregnancies the nipples.  SO is always obsessed with the nips.  And now I am pregnant and they are always at attention he is unable to keep his hands away.  When those hands approach me I have mine balled up in a fist ready to punch him in the gut.

I didn't have a problem last pregnancy with nipples either, so my H is the same way. I can't count how many times I've heard "well you didn't have that problem last time!"

[blanche]

I feel awful. Yesterday, after I puked, I spent literally all day in bed and ate basically nothing but a few saltines. I'm doing a bit better today. I wonder if it was actually MS -- I found out from the president of my org (after she found out I was out sick) that a stomach bug has been going around...so who knows.

[mtnmomma13]

onyx, have you tried bare necessities? They were my godsend even in nursing bras because they have such large sizes. And usually free shipping, so I'd buy 8 or 9 at a time and send back the ones I didn't like.

no I haven't! I've never heard of them. I will check them out! Thank you!

[themrsjrd]

I still pretty much just have really sore boobs and I'm a bit tired. Also, not much interest in food, which is unlike me. Everything else seems to have settled down. Trying to keep telling myself it doesn't mean anything is wrong. No cramping, no spotting, no bleeding. These are all good things.

[onyx]

blanche I hope you feel better and it's not a bug! No fun!

Speaking of Bare Necessities, I just ordered my G cup sports bra from them the other day. It's supposed to be here tomorrow (I paid for 2 day shipping). Can't wait to try that out, I really hope it fits. So hopefully I'll have good things to say about that company too! Although I will say the bra I got was not cheap, but if it supports and fits, it will be worth it.

[sweett11]

Can't sleep. I was wiped by 8pm but didn't fall asleep until close to 11pm. Still feeling pretty good otherwise.

Dolly Parton bewbz!! Otherwise I feel pretty good!!

DH is the same way! He tries to rub my whole boobs with his rough man hands and then when I shoo him away he tells me to "be nice grumpy." Ugh.

[ashleymarie26]

Soooooo tired today! I ate my lunch and then it is as if a truck hit me. I need to hibernate. I feel like it won't even be a good idea to drive home for fear of falling asleep.

You should (or shouldn't) tell him he won't get to touch your boobs like that again for probably over a year.

[sunfrogger88]

Working on my water intake. My boobs are sore! Ugh! Slight nausea on and off but this morning was the worst, before I finished my breakfast I felt yuck like when you've eaten far too much and will be sick if you put more food in your mouth.

Also I am grumpy at work knowing a 4 month mostly paid vacation is only 8 months away.

[sunfrogger88]

Also peeing a lot!
