How you will feel will depend on how your body responds to high amounts of sugar after 8 hours of fasting! I usually feel queasy and crappy but better after I eat something non-sugary. I wouldn't bring a sweet muffin as your first meal after the test - unless of course your body doesn't respond badly to high levels of sugar. I haven't had my test yet - it's in 2 weeks and 3 days so I'm not speaking from direct experience here; just my experience with sugar consumption in general.

My belly has gotten so big, I feel like Im already in the "waddle" phase. Anyone else feel that way? ....sigh.. my pelvis feels like its being ripped in two.

I get weighed and give a BP at every appt, but no urine samples other than thefirst appt I had.
I think I'm gonna try and do my glucose test sometime near the end of next week, eek! Can't believe I'll be 26wks by then! Seemed like I was just entering the 2nd tri yesterday!

I check Zulily pretty regularly. Since they put a new batch of stuff up everyday, you never know! I've got a couple really cute maternity tops from them, my crib bedding set, and some *adorable* lace baby rompers.

I have a urine test at every appointment, and bp. It's interesting how differently people do things!

I'm struggling with my Pelvis too Bkay. It's been really painful and seems to be getting worse. Sometimes in the evening I can hardly sit down

 

[baby_maybe]

I'm definitely waddling already and my hips/pelvis are both painful too. I didn't get this any other time being pg, so it's a new thing for me, especially this early on. I'm in the 'not sleeping' phase now too and I've got a funny feeling it's going to be like this until he arrives. Someone knock me out with a tranquilliser gun and wake me up at 40 weeks please

Hahaha, too funny! I've had pretty crappy sciatic pain, but it got ALOT better around the time I hit 20wks, because that's when I actually started to show. I think my uterus was literally expanding just in my pelvic girdle...ouch...so when it popped out I felt loads better.
I am starting to get some insomnia now, but not really due to be uncomfortable, I just can't sleep

 

[MrsChezek]

Yeah my hips are NOT HAPPY for sure and I miss sleeping through the night! But I found that doing pelvic rocking exercises helps. Basically, I get on all fours and tuck and untuck my pelvis - holding each position for 2 seconds at a time (cat-cows for any of you yogis). It releases some pressure and supposedly strengthens my pelvis to better handle the workload. They suggested doing these at my Bradley birthing class on Saturday and my pain has eased up since.

What's worse is my nausea and food aversions seem to be back I'm having trouble eating most meals and the smell of raw meat or cooking meat makes me gag!!! At least I can still drink The only things that appeal to me are cold dairy and fruit and veggies...which makes getting enough protein quite hard

 

[rose.]

Oh no, hope the sickness goes away again soon! Don't know what I'd do if my sickness returned, I'm enjoying food lots at the moment.

 

[boxxey]

my sickness is back and with a vegance I cant eat with out wanting to be sick

 

[skeet9924]

I'm starting to suffer from insomnia too..It either takes me forever to fall asleep then I wake up every hour once I do, or I fall asleep fast then wake up at 3:30 to pee and cant fall back asleep

Hopefully it's short lived! I can't handle several months of this again I haven't eaten much today and that which I did, I pretty much had to force feed. I'm pretty sure the bean won't be too happy with this arrangement for too long!

 

[boxxey]

i have to force myself to eat

 

[bkay77]

I almost wish my nausea would come back so I would hold off on all the food Ive been eating. I think Im eating enough for two full adults LOL

 

[skeet9924]

Anyone else suffering from crazy heart burn?? I keep getting it at night to the point it makes me feel sick.. Nothing is helping it

Yeah especially at night. Its horrible.

 

[rose.]

I have been having heart burn, but it seems to have eased slightly over the last couple of days - I was getting it badly during the afternoon and at bedtime. Hopefully it stays away as yore right it does make you feel sick!!

 

[Amy_T]

Hope everyone is well. I don't seem to have morning sickness, I seem to have it the other end! Sorry for the TMI but for a couple of hours in the morning I get bad tummy ache and need to go to the toilet a lot, very odd.

Heartburn is awful, I've had it with all of my pregnancies, found rennies and milk helped a bit last time. X

^^This!! I was about to reply with the same thing. I had so little appetite for weeks on end and now I just want to eat EVERYTHING!! I need to ease up or I'm going to have a.l.o.t of weight to lose after this baby comes!!

AmyT - I get a tummy ache almost every morning too. I don't know if it's all the moving I do in the night or if baby kicks my bowels a lot while I'm asleep! It doesn't always result in a bad tummy as such but I quite often find myself rushing to the toilet just in case!

Sorry ladies but I have to rant!

I've just been on my facebook profile as I wanted to see if a certain friend had commented on my 12 week scan photo back in August. I noticed it has been shared so went to see who it was and it was someone I don't know!

EDIT: I'm just editing this as I think this was just a mistake. I've been told by our mutual friend that he thinks it is a language thing and she thought if things were on Facebook they could just be shared and there was nothing horrible or bad in her sharing it.
