December 2013 babies!

[HLC2109]

You aren't the only one, I have got teary over a few things the last few days! You are so lucky having no symptoms, I also have the cramping which always has me worried even though I had it with my son and everything was fine. I ave had some strange symptoms. I had a week or so when everything tasted like banana, I hate banana so that was awful! I have a strange feeling in my nose, kinda feels like I've hit it on something, I had this with DS too. Also getting a lot of heartburn. This has to be the strangest though - I can't stand to look at eggs!

Funny, randomly the only thing I crave more than anything else at the moment is eggs!! DH can't believe I'm having them for lunch too at the moment. And totally with you on banana's, can't stand them, have to wear gloves to even touch them as swear I can still smell them on my hands hours later...! Hope you feel better soon xx

I really want tomato soup at the moment but I have never really liked it before but now it's all I want!

My son loves bananas and has one regularly so I have just about got used to the smell but hate the feel of them

Think I'm having a teary day, as reading all your responses brought tears to my eyes!! But I cried at DH touching my tummy yesterday so seems everyday is teary day!!

It's so nice to know we're in this together ladies..!!! I'm not having much going on apart from cramping in my tummy, otherwise, no symptoms... yet!!

ive had the heartburn urgh its awful and been not teary but in a fowl mood all week poor dh lol

I had heartburn the whole way through last time, really hoping its bit going to be that bad this time - it was a killer!

I have already warned OH to not take things personally as I will probably turn into a right moody cow at some point

ugh i have been so sick! pretzels used to make me feel a little better but now i can't stand the thought of eating anything! I can't wait until second trimester when this will subside a little. I feel so sick because i don't eat, but eating makes me feel sick too. It's just a losing situation all around. Luckily i have managed to not throw up at all, but i do gag on my prenatal vitamins!

How are all you Christmas pudding bakers?!
I had a reasonable good day yesterday. MS eased up in the morning and it was sunny so we took a walk along the seafront. Was exhausted afterwards but felt nice to feel 'normal' for a few hours. It kicked in again later tho, don't worry! How is everyone else?

 

[HLC2109]

My nausea isn't too bad really, is be feeling pretty good if it wasn't for the cramping, feels like bad period pain

Me too! I'm trying not to think about it. I've had on/off constant mild period cramping for the last two days. I hope it's normal!

 

[Laelani]

I'm right there with both of you!

 

[HLC2109]

I had cramping for a few weeks with DS but I don't remember it being quite this strong!

 

[Bonnie11]

Had cramping on and off bad for the first 2/3 weeks after O, in fact it was the first thing that made me do an HPT! In the last week/10 days it has eased off but I still get it a few times a day, usually when I have been lying down and then stand up quickly, or if I've been moving around a lot x

With you all with the cramps, it's just because your uterus is doubling in size already. Had a nightmare last night that I had severe cramps and bleeding but couldn't get to the doctors or hospital and it wouldn't stop! Do relieved to wake up!!! Feel like I've hardly slept now tho. Anyone else having weird dreams?

I've had cramps since ovulation too but just thought it was impending period even though we've been TTC. But it was the weird dreams that made me do a pregnancy test! Kept dreaming I was pregnant and something was going wrong, weird, as soon as I'd tested I started dreaming nice dreams about the baby, so maybe I was doing something wrong!! Too much housework I keep telling the DH!

Strange dreams are meant to be common but it's my first pregnancy so all knew to me. If you feel ok, then I'd ignore the dreams xx

Try not to worry, cramps are completely normal. I had a ton about a week ago that were really painful so i was pretty worried. My Dr says it's just the uterus stretching, and unless they are accompanied by bright red blood then it's nothing to worry about. hope that helps!

Yep completely normal. My doctor said that you can have them all through first tri and into the second. It all depends how your body is reacting to all the growing and stretching that is happening in there.

I'm trying to keep the due dates on the first page updated , but if im missing anyone let me know!

Somehow you missed me. I'm due December 26th.

Has anyone been experiencing gas pains?? At least I think that is what they are! They come on randomly throughout the day, and then are the worst during the night! I ate a smaller dinner yesterday and didn't have them so much last night, so hopefully I can control them with what I eat... but OUCH!!

Or maybe they are cramps from stretching/growing? It is a similar feeling to what I get the first day of AF, but more intense... kind of feels like my uterus is on fire!

 

[Maxie]

Sounds like normal cramping to me, unless you ahem, release it and it goes! Lol, in which case it's gas! But I agree, all normal, don't panic unless there's bleeding.

i do! I'm so gassy, i could probably beat my husband in any sort of contest right now =) I have those crampy pains too, sometimes they hurt worse than others. The other day every time i coughed or sneezed it felt like i was being stabbed in the uterus. I think it's just growing and stretching. So i'm trying not to worry.
