Hi ladies!

Gassy, constipated off and on, nausea and dizziness out of nowhere, back pain, cramping, poking and pinching sharp pains in my tummy, bloated, and my BOOBS HURT!!! They had gotten better, but today they are just throbbing.

I'm moody. I quit smoking cold turkey and that didn't help!

Congrats everyone on your BFPs!

So far, I've been gassy, exhausted, nauseous and thirsty, therefore peeing a LOT! I also feel hungry most of the time. Sometimes even after I eat, my stomach feels like an empty pit, like it's going to growl at any moment. It's the weirdest thing! My boobs hurt and my nipples are super sensitive. I've also been so emotional - I started crying during the national anthem at an American football game! I've also had some dull cramps, but they never last for very long.

I'm around 8 weeks now. So far, I've had extreme fatigue, thirst, crazy dreams, nausea but no vomiting, increased smelling capacity (I work as a nurse, and being able to smell everything is NOT a good thing, lol!) queasiness and aversion to certain foods which didn't bother me before, sensitive boobs, random stabbing pains in the uterus area and increased sensitivity to those around me, especially when they have negative energy. I cannot stand listening to people fight. I was like that before I got pregnant, but I think it has definitely increased. Thank goodness I have a peaceful home life, it's just when I'm at work or out and about.

I have the same energy sensitivity!
I am worried about being around any drama. I feel like I will burst into tears right now as it is.

I'm super early, will only be 4 weeks tomorrow... What are your symptoms?

I have AF-like cramping (not painful just uncomfortable), lower back ache that won't go away, very slightly sore boobs, and super gassy! I wasn't gassy at all with my daughter so I'm not used to that one haha

Greats, I remember you from the boards when having our first LO's.

I'm 4 weeks today, so very very early too. So far I feel incredibly tired, nauseous, the odd cramp, slightly tender boobs... That's about it.

Oh and I've gone right off my morning coffee! Can't believe it, haha, I love my caffeine, and I don't remember feeling like that with my son.

[Maidenet]

Add in strange sex dreams!

Add in strange sex dreams!

Omg I had the weirdest last night involving women and candy floss *shudder*

 

[fluffet521]

LOL, Jumping! Women and candy floss!?! I can hardly wait until I start having crazy dreams! Does anyone know why pregnancy dreams are a thing? Are they due to hormones or something like that? I've always heard other people's, but I'm ready for some of my own!

P.S. I love Josie for a little girl's name. So cute! One of my nephews is named Zachary and goes by Zach, so it's near and dear to my heart. Great names you've picked out!

 

[BoobsMcGee22]

HAHAHAHAHA!!! This one was like two movies running at once. One was DH and I humping like bunnies. I was the aggressor! The other was me in someone else's body...and she was some sort of prostitute I think.

SO VERY STRANGE!

I was so aroused in the dream. Then I woke up and was not aroused at all. Poor DH!

 

[BoobsMcGee22]

If we have a girl, she will be a Josie! It's actually Josephine after DH's grandmother.

 

[JumpingIn]

Aw thanks ladies, it's so reassuring to get compliments on the names! Ours will be a Josephine too, just because we love the name. We have Zachary Conrad and Josephine Amelie.

Quite fancy having your rampant hooker dream. Mine went back to being super boring last night, bills and family Hope your dreams get sexy soon fluff! I think it's hormones but I don't know which ones or why. Might do some googling!

 

[BoobsMcGee22]

Is anyone else having an increase in er...GOING? My bowel activity seems to have picked up. I was constipated. I am no longer! It is 9am and I have gone three times already...

 

[fluffet521]

Me too, Boobs! And for the past few days! Just this morning, I went twice before leaving for work at 7:30! I thought it was either what I was eating or the amount of water I'm drinking. Maybe a combo of both? I know that upping your water intake definitely helps with the constipation, but I don't know if it can make you actually go MORE...

Jumping, now that you've said the first and middle for both, I love them even more! Especially Conrad, it's unique and such a handsome name for a boy. Amelie is a perfect match for Josephine, equally beautiful and unique, as well! DH and I are trying to think of unique names that aren't too far out there, and as a matter of fact, Conrad was a name DH liked for our angel if it were to have been a boy. My girl front runners for our angel were Waverly Grace and then Caitlin Marie but DH wasn't crazy about Waverly and thought Grace was "too Southern". Now I don't even know if I want to keep those names because I kinda associate them with our loss. Boys names are harder to me, for some reason. Chinese gender predictor has said boy, though, so we'd better get to stepping on those! I know it's just for fun, but we really do need to pick out some boy names!

 

[BoobsMcGee22]

Ah! Maybe it IS the water! I did up my intake considerably. But man...I even feel like I could go AGAIN!

Sorry for your loss and what stunning names you had picked out! I don't blame you for wanting something new, I can see how the association is with your angel. I'm glad you like Conrad, it doesn't tend to get great feedback but I adore it Thank you!

I'll have to help you pick out a new boy name, it sounds like we have identical taste Exciting!

LOL, I just did!!! Sounds like we're in a contest today, hun! You've seriously got me LOLing over here.

Fantastic! I'd love that, thank you!

And when it comes to Conrad, all that matters is that you and your OH love it. Who cares what anyone else thinks about the names you've chosen, right?!? It's not their son (or daughter, if that ends up being the case) to name!

Thank you for your condolences, sweetie. I appreciate it.
