I've been having trouble sleeping as well. Exactly like you described swissmiss. And crazy dreams, but those seem to not be as frequent as they were a couple weeks ago

[nettlesoup]

Oh no! That's a horrible dream! I actually dreamt I had a baby boy as well and I lost him in a police box in Edinburgh, but couldn't remember which one, It was surreal.

nettlesoup: do you grind your teeth at night? I do when I'm stressed out and then I have the exact same dreams where my teeth are falling out and I'm pulling gristle out of my mouth. It always feels so real too!

[nettlesoup]

I don't think I do, but I do worry about my tooth health more than I should. Apparently dreaming about that is also a sign of anxiety, but I'm not anxious about anything so i don't know.

My daughter sometimes grind her teeth in her sleep and it's a horrible noise.

Not sleeping well here either! I'm emotional and tired. Oh yeah, and breaking out on my chin too. Lovely hormones.

I'm almost 8 weeks, and my main complaint is tiredness. I nap whenever I can during the day and my kids have watched extra Bob the Builder and train documentary shows (my son loves trains).  I rarely have any nausea, so I'm thankful for that and keeping up the milk thistle.  My appetite and feelings of fullness are always weird with pregnancy, and this time it's no different. But I just now enjoyed some leftover berry crisp, warmed with some heavy cream poured over the top. It was my breakfast today too hehe.

Crazy vivid dreams here too! I hate it!

I get so hungry out of no where and then fill up fast. I can usually eat a whole sandwich but now can only eat about half.

I had a scary dream of having a MC and losing the baby...I hope since I dreamed of it it will not happen...just a subconscious fear giving vent..

[nettlesoup]

I woke up this morning with pain in my lower tummy next to my hipbone. It got me a bit worried, but I think it's gone now. Hopefully just gas!

No symptoms other than bloating here.....and headaches.
I grind my teeth so I wear a guard at night.

[nettlesoup]

Ugh, the pain is there when I lie down. I'm going to be really paranoid now :(
 

[mrsandmrs]

Nettle, is the pain different from round ligament pain?

[MamaMash]

I had a dream I started my period.. In the dream I wasn't pregnant. It still freaked me out though.

Nettle could it be pain in your ovary? Sometimes the corpus luteum cyst can cause pain.

I had a dream a few weeks ago that the baby came out and was actually a baby crocodile that started biting everyone!  Last night dreamt that I was in labor but was barely showing and I didn't know what was wrong.

I'm 8 weeks and a few days and I'm still soooo tired.  This is my 1st pregnancy.  Is this still normal or could I be anemic or something?  Well, it comes and goes I suppose.  Yesterday was a big day for me (picked out wedding venue, got marriage license, looked at wedding rings, climbed a bunch of stairs, big party), so maybe that's why. :D

Some cramping last night and low back pain too. :(  Not too bad though and only lasted an hour or so, but still.  

Man I feel I'm going to need maternity clothes soon!

I slept 10 hours last night and this morning I feel awesome! Maybe I should try to get that much sleep regularly.
Dreams, dreams, dreams. I find them absolutely fascinating. The crazy and interesting ways our brain tries to make sense of it all. Sometime last week I dreamed that Alec Baldwin was my father and I was giving birth to a green angel boy with pink wings but he was stuck in a bubble outside my body and I had to chew off the bubble/membrane.
nettlesoup: hope it's nothing serious but if you're worried you can always go see the doc and maybe put your mind at ease.

[LLtheTinkerbell]

Lol to Alec Baldwin!

I dreamt I had another girl and she was running around and playing w DD as soon as she was born!

I think dreams are not omens but just a playing out of our fears or thoughts/ideas. I had tons of weird dreams when I was preg with my 1st; 1 I remember the baby came out an was really badly deformed, like lobster claws for hands, and he was saying WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME???i must have been feeling guilty about not taking perfect care of myself while pg!

Kali, I'm getting married too! We got engaged over Christmas but decided to wait until next fall (2014) to do it for all kinds of reasons (though probably driven at least 75% by my selfish reasons of wanting to be skinny and being able to drink champagne!)

[serena76]

Why does no one tell u how horrible being pg is? I dunno if I can stand this for 9 months

[MamaMash]

It gets better Serena. Hang in there 😌

[happybunny]

I'm still dealing with daily nausea. No vomiting, but constant nausea no matter what I do. It's exhausting. Looking at a screen for too long is one of my triggers, which is why I haven't been around much. I can barely keep up with my school work. I want to sleep all day long. I feel like a horrible mom because Elli watches so much TV right now and I keep telling myself that it will only be "a few" more weeks. I want to be out of the first trimester so bad!!!

Near hipbone? Kinda sounds like round ligament pain from the growing uterus.
