so, what makes you nuts when you are pregnant?  

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
even though i am only like 6 weeks pregnant i see the same stuff that made me nuts before is cropping up again.

what i hate when i'm pregnant:
the seams on my bras (i have to wear them inside out)
people who don't wash (i have a really sensitive nose when i'm not pregnant, it's like torture when i am)
maybe, TMI, but: my pubic hair (seriously i have to shave it because it drives me insane)
my grey hair, since i don't color it
heartburn
not being able to breathe
people who ask "do you know if it's a boy or a girl?"
the cats walking on my boobs in bed

how about you?

so far...

Not being able to catnap this time with my dd at home, makes mama very cranky!
Not being able to have a cup of black tea as a pick-me-up.
Not breathing - my diaphram is still spastic from last pregnancy.
Scratchy underwear.
and ditto to cat on boobs!

hoping not to get in future, like last time:

bad smells
carpal tunnel
50 lbs
itchy
monkey butt (feels like you're turned inside-out)

Oh man I hate the first trimester. It is very nerve racking.
I need naps so I hate it when my boys fall asleep at different times.
I hate pants/underwear that come to the middle of my belly. They have to go all the way over or under.
I hate the cravings for stuff that I don't have readily available.

Nonetheless I love being pregnant and can't wait until October.

With my first pregnancy, I HATED to kiss my husband.
I could smell the saliva in his mouth. It's not that he had bad breath, and bless his heart, he would brush his teeth three times a day - but I could literally smell his spit and that was SO GROSS. I hated kissing him.

Didn't happen the second time, thank god!

The sound of macaroni and cheese.
Smell of burnt coffee.
My daughter going, "Mommy? Mommy? Mommy? Mommy? Mommy? Mommy? Mommy? Mommy? Mommy? Mommy? Mommy?..."

-Anything that happens too many times in a row! arghhh...
-the fatigue
-seems my nose, eyes, AND ears are more sensitive... I can't stand bright light, loud noises, and strong scents! WHY?!?! I mean, I know why, but it's really annoying
-also the preggie illnesses (already got a cold I KNOW I wouldn't have caught were I not growing strong. hahaha

I guess that's all for now, but I totally hope to avoid the heartburn, 'roids, and constant itchy belly of 3rd trimester. I think those were the only things that bothered me a lot in the end.

look forward to learning more about the rest of you MDC babes! hahaha

Okay, I'm a first-timers, so you're going to hate this......
I hate not having morning sickness. We suffered a miscarriage in December, and somehow I feel panicked that I haven't thrown up. Little bit of quesiness here and there, but I want to see :Puke because I have this naive idea that I'll be able to relax then

I have a little bit of sore breasts, but not enough to become debilitating. The need for a nap, on the other hand.....I spend my workday morning wondering where in the building I can find to sleep at my lunch hour. I feel like a drug addict

No one knows we're pregnant yet, so I haven't given anyone the chance to ask moronic questions yet. BUT, I was lurking on one of the post-partum threads today and found a beautiful answer to the perennial "Is the baby sleeping well?" question: "Yes, she sleeps like a baby". Brilliant! :

oh I have lots of things....

the fact that I'm starving but can't eat anything without getting sick

My husband -- he just is really annoying lately

My son climbing on my boobs every 5 seconds.

That I'm always freezing cold and can not get warm.

Garlic. I'm a lover of garlic but when pregnant.... :Puke

My step-sons' incesent whining

the bloating, OMG the bloating

My greasier then usual hair.

and when people say 'I hope you get your girl'.... who the hell says I want a girl.... UGH

Really, I love being pregnant though, lol.... I swear.

Well, it appears that despite having no morning sickness, barely any queasiness and no other symptoms... sex now makes me sick.

Mine too!
But last night I almost threw up on DH. His body heat was just waaaaaaaaaay too much for my sensitive stomach. I can't stand being hot when I'm even slightly queasy.
