My main symptom is being uncomfortable. I've realized that office furniture is definitely not made with pregnant women in mind & my back hurts from this chair. Also, peeing every night around 3-4 is really effing with my sleep.
I've scoped out almost every office chair on our site (yes, I sat in every person's chair that I could find vacant) and seriously none of them are comfortable. I had every intention of guilting somebody out of their chair for the next few months or at least begging purchasing to buy me a new one.
The only thing I've found that helps me is to undock my laptop so I can put it in my lap and sit with my feet up on the desk for a few minutes at a time. It sort of stretches my lower back out and feels wonderful...until someone walks by and sees me looking like a total slob.
This is my life! Yesterday I was so desperate that I went into our conference room with my laptop and put 2 chairs together so I could stretch out. Luckily my office has only 1 other person in it (mostly satellite office) and she's a mom so she gets it.
My symptom (it's also pretty random, too...) is pimples in weird places. Like underneath my ear, and right where my thighs touch, and on my butt cheek. Seriously, what?
Home with sick DD day 2. I was thinking about driving up to work during nap time to pick up my laptop but DD didn't go down for a nap until just now and I'm not sitting in the traffic. I haven't figued out what I'm going to do tomorrow yet but I ineed to acquire my computer. I unsuccessfully tried to convince DH to switch his flight to one tonight. Don't get me wrong I love spending time with DD but I have so much anxiety about the amount of work I need to get done before going on maternity leave. This one assignment in particular is huge and needs to go out in April.

Ugh. I'm sick (sore throat etc). And I forgot my lunch at work today. So I'm scarfing down pizza now and will probably pass out for an evening nap afterwards.
The worst part is that it's GORGEOUS outside and I really want to go on a walk!
My random today is how much excitement I felt at the end of my 28 week appointment when my doctor congratulated me for being in the home stretch and then asked me to start making appointments every 2 weeks! So I just keep counting down in my headi like a silly freak week 30, week 32, week 34, week 36, week 38....possibly only 4 more appointments to go!!!!

I'm feeling stuffy and achey today. I can't decide if it's a cold or allergies. It's hard to keep up with Spring allergies here when not pregnant, and when you are KO, practically impossible. Not liking forward to the next 6 weeks.
I just got home from work and a stop at the grocery store. Gathered lovely yummy ingredients for grilled steak/mushroom/potato kebabs and caprese salad. But I'm stuck in my car with sudden wicked heartburn/nausea and I just want to be inside laying down somewhere. Do not want to carry groceries in, put things away, and prep dinner. Booooooo

I feel like I can feel my abs separating, like in the spot over my belly button. I recall a similar feeling vaguely from my last pregnancy, though I don't think it started this early.

Everyone always is saying or has said that they have hip pain...not me. I have achy knees when I lie down. So annoying and I dont know how to eliminate the ache!

PurpleIris Sounds like you developed diastasis recti. I had it after my first. I am in a FB group for it, and many people said they could feel that split happening. I never felt it, but I still had it. I'm hoping it's not too much worse after this pregnancy.
