Symptoms? Aversion to breakfast meats. I've had a really terrible pain like where my tailbone meets my hip or something. I thought it might be sciatica but apparently that would be more of a shooting tingly pain vs a kind of constant but sharp when I move/bend over pain. Going to have to schedule a chiropractor appt.
Upcoming appts? Nothing until January.
Rants/Raves? Rant = the back/hip pain thing is brutal. Nothing helps
Rave = not only am I going to be a mom next summer I just found out I'm going to be a god mother too!!! Our best friends told us today that they are expecting and I am over the moon for them and to be able to experience pregnancy with her and have kids so close in age (she is due August 12) this is like story book type shit and I am ridiculously excited !!
GTKY: Do you have everything ready for the upcoming holidays (gifts bought and wrapped)? If so how long have you been ready?
I am ahead of the game this year in that I am done shopping and it is not Christmas Eve lol. I think we finished last week and I wrapped everything Thursday.
Symptoms? Way less nausea than previous weeks, it is so nice!!
Upcoming appts? Jan 5th
Rants/Raves? Did I mention I feel way better!

I don't vacuum during pregnancy because it causes my hip and back pain to flare up. That's the only reason I can think of. And I've found my sciatic pain can vary from person to person. I hope your chiropractor can help you. Otherwise, I've found my physiotherapist to be more helpful than my chiropractor. Once again, it seems to depend on who you talk to.
Anyway, all the best with the hip and back pain, and get someone else to vacuum for you!

Thank you for the advice! Lol I wish I could blame it on the fact that I'm vacuuming.... Lol
No vacuuming - for real? Or sarcasm? I've never heard this.
For real. She said this last time. And no carrying laundry baskets down steps.
Um... I have to carry a squirming toddler up and down stairs every day...he weighs at least 5x as much as a laundry basket.
No vacuuming? No laundry? How old is this nurse? Pregnancy is not a disability and I'm surprised a modern medical professional would place such silly restrictions on you. Even if you're on modified bed rest it's usually like don't lift anything over 20lbs. If you're doing 20lbs of laundry at a time, you've got other problems.
Symptoms? Pretty mild nausea and heartburn; super tired; ridiculous bloating and crying bouts. But right now, a stupid cold has taken over all of these.
Upcoming appt.? 12/30 -- so mad I had to change the date because it would've been today
Rants/Raves? Last Friday, I was getting nervous because my pencil skirt still fit. Today, my size larger pencil skirt is tight. My body is confused.
GTKY: Do you have everything ready for the upcoming holidays (gifts bought and wrapped)? If so how long have you been ready? Finished wrapping over the weekend, but need to do more wrapping fro Christmas 2 next week.

I would guess she is in her 60s and kind of a nut IMO. My OB is great and very reasonable. But, yeah, aside from IVF and mildish HG, I had a pretty normal pregnancy last time.
