How are you feeling today? - Page 2

[minimunklemama]

I am feeeling pretty good toady,no one encountered my rollercoaster mood today so the whole house has been pretty happy :LOL
I just know the sickness is around the corner though as the lightheadedness started this afternoon and that is usually quickly followed by :Puke and more :Puke

[Peppamint]

Hmm... my symptoms are: tired , hungry a lot : (say, popcorn sounds good!), and I can feel my ligaments stretching. My regular jeans were snug anyway, so there's no way I can fit into them now. I broke out a pair of maternity jeans today. : I hear #3+ your uterus tends to fall forward as it grows so I can really see this happening right now! Gotta see if I can find some in between jeans. So far, no m/s or anything but I only had nausea with my first two pg and only threw up once or twice each pregnancy. Thank G-d because I'd rather have the runs anyday because throwing up means dinner ends up way in my sinuses. :Puke Sorry... you didn't want to hear that!



I hope y'all feel just good enough to keep from feeling horrible and yet just bad enough to feel like you have good healthy pg symptomes!

Hello toilet bowl
told you it was coming!!
not fully fledged yet but rolling in and out like a fall ocean!!

Hi Mamas, sorry some of you are feeling so bad already. I threw up today too for the first time. My bleeding has tapered and my cramps are less so I am feeling better about all of this.

I have also been smelling skunk and cow manure for 7 days too, in my nice urban environement :LOL

Now that's funny! :LOL I mean, that you're in the city but smelling country smells. s

[mamacatsbaby]

You ladies are too funny. I am glad that you guys feel bad enough to know things are rolling along. Things aren't too bad today but I am going to fling myself over this keyboard in a minute in a fit of exhaustian. :yawning: :yawning: :yawning: I've been even more nauseous lately but in waves and no :Puke as of yet. I am so glad it hasn't been as hot here in the A. for the last couple of days b/c the smell of baking urine and moldy wood is NOT to my liking. Man, DH laughs at me but my sense of smell/taste now mocks me. The food cravings/aversions are also more intense. Where's that freakin' steak?...

[Sydnee]

Me too, Mama!!!! I only get bouts of nausea, not too bad, yet. with the other 2 I think it had hit by now, but I'm sure the puking is yet to come!! Also VEEERY tired, I napped tyesterday and today for over 3 hours!! I NEVER nap during the day, total waste of time!! :LOL I don't really have any cramping, or stretching, but super bloated!!!

[dshields]

I'm with you mamacats and sydnee...nausea waves and exhaustion! I've been hungry every 5 minutes and eating SO much. I've also been falling asleep around nine. Dh and I watched the Nova video about the baby in utero, how it uses 25% of your blood etc...the music they played was very scary! Now dh is calling bebe "the monster". It's been very funny. When I fall into bed at 8:30 he says "Oooooh, the monster's tired"

Also I can tell when my neighbors have had bacon for breakfast, and they don't live all that close! Ummm bacon....

[Peppamint]

Sounds like it's beginning! Dun dun dun dummmm.... <playing scary "monster baby" music> That was for your dshields. LOL

I got hit with a huge wave of nausea last night after dinner. We'd had a really long day outside and even though I drank a ton of water maybe it was just being exhausted. I'm normally awake until after 11pm but these days I'm ready for bed by 10. :LOL Such a party pooper I am!

[ksmommy]

Well, I haven't slept all night...My right upper side has been hurting with pains shooting up my shoulder. I suspect a gall bladder infection. I have a friend who has a cleansing recepie, so I am waiting for her to call me with it. I had to cancel my coop meeting today I am in such pain.... Other than that... feeling ok... a little nausea and plenty of tired! Good day to ya'll!

[merrick]

I have been sick as a dog since Friday. Only actually threw up this morning though. I don't think i got enough sleep and that makes it worse. God, I hate this part of pregnancy! This is the part when I always see adoption as such an attractive option. and I swear I'll never get pg again! Oh well, DH said no more anyway!

I made it through my morning class today, but just barely, but had to skip my second one. I thought I'd get out in time to get something to eat between classes so I didn't bring anything. Turns out my morning class is 2 hours long! I just could not sit through another class on an empty stomach. Thursday i'll be more prepared. I know I looked like death warmed over in class today too, but I just really didn't care!

I have my first prenatal tomorrow. I'm really excited!

[mamacatsbaby]

25%? Holy moly. I thought that I was in relatively good shape before PG but I see now that this means nothing. :LOL I never thought I could be this tired. And, umm, g-a-s-s-y. : How can this be when most food makes me want to gag? Slight crankiness has been lurking about as well. Good luck at your prenatal merrick!

[dshields]

Ah mamacats...I am a gas machine! Dh's grandma passed away and her wake was this evening. I had to stand outside most of the time, there was no stopping me. When I was inside I was standing with my legs crossed just in case...and we haven't told them yet so I had no decent excuse!

[Naughty Dingo]

I am so dang tired, Oh I could sleep for hours. The nausea is there, hovering just under the surface. One of these mornings it will be here full blast so I am trying to get as much as I can done.

Also, it has become apparent around here that Mama is no longer taking her zoloft :LOL I have been in tears about 3 times after getting into some pretty heated political and breastfeeding rights discussions. Man, I hope I chill soon cuz I'm a bit of a crank right now. Maybe it's the hormones, but I think it's more....

[mamacatsbaby]

I abound in crankiness today. That bed is so singing to me but I'll just lay there with my eyes wide open while this insomnia continues to run amuck. dshields, I'm so sorry about DH's grandma. for you guys. Oh my , oh my, :yawning: ,so when will this tiredness let up ladies?

[Naughty Dingo]

I am so dang tired, I just lay on the floor and could stay there happily for hours. Fortunately the two little dictators that I serve have kindly accomadated my floor lying breaks this week. How benevolent of them!

Also, becoming quite pukified. I am OK with it for now, gives me more confidence that things are going Ok in there.

[nydiagonz]

Really, really tired :yawning: with no time to

Very, very gassy :

Huge and bloated :

[mamacatsbaby]

So... freakin'... tired... :yawning: No cleaning, I can't do it. Just work, sleep (when I can), eat. My boobs will soon be taking flight. Uterus stretching? The nausea is almost overwhelming. I'd almost rather just puke already and get it over with. I keep a box of cereal by me bed to munch on before I get up from "sleeping". I'm usually a pretty vivid dreamer but the ones lately are just . Do your thing Little Pea...

[Peppamint]

A little gassy and soooo tired :yawning: Same as most of you! Very little nausea and no throwing up :

We took the kids to a friend's house to swim and I swam a million laps pulling the kiddos on floaties so I'm totally pooped. Gonna head to the couch for a nap in a few minutes!

[mamacatsbaby]

I am a gassy mama. So very, very gassy. My lower back's twinging, I think from standing on my feet all day. Ahhh acne. Just enough to be continuously irritating, not so much that I declare myself an ostrich. Nausea's letting up a little. Still not much of an appetite. I only eat when I have no choice. In the throws of annihialating exhaustian. Emotions are . Mmm, OJ.
