Friday symptoms and other joys

You know the drill

[Bluedaisy]

Totally stuffed up (combo between seasonal allergies and all of my students having horrible colds I think). Other than that I feel pretty good (knock on wood).

[wormgerm]

So I've noticed that when I have a morning poop baby is super active while it's happening. Such a weird sensation. Super special snowflake here. I wonder if there are lumps or something going by him and he's reacting to that. Has anyone else noticed this? It kind of cracks me up.

I haven't noticed that with the poop but this little girl apparently likes her space! If I have to pee she will kick the crap out of me until I go, then she's fine.

I am stuffed up and having to sleep with an extra pillow and the humidifier because I've apparently started snoring and chasing my Dh out of the bed. Seems to be helping but my sinus headaches are something awful right now. oh and milk...milk makes my stomach hurt.

I don't think I've slept well in 5 days... makes me want to push K out of the bed every time I wake up and shes in a peaceful REM cycle.
Also, been feeling a 'heavy' feeling off and on really low near my pubic bone. Not sure what this is... new feeling.

pbubblegum I wasn't until 5:45, but I didn't puke this am - your post DID make me giggle. So while I'm sorry it happened to you, I'm glad we can laugh about it now... you're laughing too, right?

I had the most AWFUL leg cramp this morning!! I could feeeeeeeel it moving down my calf muscle:(
It woke me up about 30 minutes before my alarm so of course I couldn't fall back to sleep before I had to get up. And DH didn't even hear me thrashing around the bed like a wounded animal-__-

Is not wanting to do anything at work a pregnancy symptom?

[jcprn]

DH FINALLY felt Baby moving (27w 3d)! It was the sweetest thing. He started tearing up and everything. Squeeeee!

Gives me hope. 25w and saw movement from the outside yesterday but he still couldn't feel it. Lame. I told him he can't feel the baby because he doesn't talk to him.

It's definitely got to be because I feel like this just about every day;)

Don't lose hope! DH juuuuuust felt the baby move this week (and part of me isn't 100% sure he wasn't just trying to please me by saying he did) but I was telling him the same exact thing about why she never moves for him! HA:)

Try having him lay his head on your stomach. My DH could only feel movement that way up till about a week or two ago and I am 28w. He could feel her on his cheek. Not sure why but maybe because the face is more sensitive? I dunno. It also gave him the opportunity to talk to her!!

[maddib]

My symptoms are pretty much the same. I am achey and tired and have a stupid migraine. My poor house has never been messier!! It's just clutter!! Everywhere! All of DHs tools are on my kitchen table, all of babies things are in a corner in my living room until we can finish the basement which is to be DS room then actually start on the nursery. My house needs some major TLC from me and I just can't even right now. I have so many errands to run today to get my damn mini van tagged and licensed. Ugh. I am done.

[holliberry28]

pbubblegum, I'm sorry you're feeling sick. Hope you get some rest and feel better soon.

I keep on putting DH's hand on my belly thinking he'll be able to feel it, but no go, yet.

[carolyngrace]

Baby always stops moving when I put DH's hand on my belly! He felt it a couple of times weeks ago, but not since then. The changes in movement freak me out also... But as soon as I feel really worried I'll have some strong kicks!

Also, my cat suddenly wants to lay right ON TOP of my belly all of the time. It hurts and she doesn't fit! But she keeps on trying. So weird.

Not laughing, wish I could. I puked all myself at work today. I'm home now crying. 

OMG I TAKE IT BACK!! I'm sorry you're feeling so bad AND that I lauged!! Stomach bug maybe?  *ugh* I hope you can get some rest.  Thats the worst...

This week was a hard one - I am so glad it's Friday. Monday baby wasn't moving (or so I thought), I totally freaked out, called L&D (even after calming myself down here and by looking up on Google -- luckily the L&D nurses were really sweet and told me I did the right thing... even if they were thinking I was crazy), and ended up for monitoring - soon as they hooked me up kiddo started kicking the monitor. I couldn't feel it but I could hear it! When I explained to the nurse that I was used to feeling the kicks at that frequency (we got 7 in a few minutes), she laughed and said no wonder I was worried. Since then Kiddo has not stopped moving (I'm fine with this!).

The rest of the week kinda followed that vein - I felt totally off all week - nothing too bad just uncomfortable and out of sorts (and wasn't active here...should have come vented to you ladies). I'm done with the sharp lightning crotch every time I walk (DH cannot comprehend this or why I walk slower -- I CAN'T WALK LIKE I WANT TO SLOW DOWN). The mood swings were bad this week, but seem ok today. Hopefully they stop or even out or something. And heartburn, I hate you.

TGIF

Ankle swelling anyone? Wore flats to work yesterday and went to put a sock on at the gym and noticed me left ankle was swollen. I elevated and massaged last night and it was much better when I woke up. Now again, at the end of the day, it's swollen again. I'm 26 weeks today. I have what I like to call "lineman legs" already and this is just really unattractive. Straight up Fred Flinstone foot and cankle! I hope this doesn't last for the next 14 weeks...

[mnp48]

wormgerm, I'm going through the same thing. lol It's weird. It's as if the baby is telling me, "Would you do something about that already?!"

This morning I asked the OB/GYN about the back pains, and all I got was, "it happens". Thanks. *sarcasm* I guess, if he doesn't think it's a big deal that I occasionally have a pimp walk, I'm a-ok with it. haha.

[missjenniebean]

Had the most awful Charlie horse last night that I woke up SO and he thought I was in labor. Hahahahaha.

Was sent home early from work BC my coworker was worried about me, I apparently was not focusing and was out of if.

All I want to do is sleep. Zzz...

This is me!! Both ankles, right is always worse than the left. I've been trying some essential oils on my ankles to help.
Other symptoms for today- very crabby/ lots of mood swings. Crying one minute and laughing so hard it hurts the next. Lots of lightening crotch the past few days as well. That one can stop anytime now!

[wormgerm]

I have gyser style heart burn right now. I feel acid suddenly shoot up to my throat. So gross. So yucky. So uncomfortable.

[redlipz]

My stomach is BURNING!! I only got one or two stretch marks with my other 2 pregnancies combined but I think I won't be as lucky this time.

Eta: my right boob has been super leaky.

Worse. Feel. Ever. I'm right there with you!!

Holy exhaustion. I slept ok last night and was able to sleep in since DS is with his dad. But I didn't get out of bed until noon. Then I took a shower, which wiped me out and I went back to bed, had a little bit to eat, and took a three hour nap. I cannot believe how much I want to sleep. It's insane!

I've been dealing with lightening crotch/boob... This sucks! But on a brighter note it's Friday!

For you and anyone else dealing with lightning crotch


Oh gif fail. Was so appropriate too. Boo.
