"Worst" part of pregnancy for you so far?

[Marumi]

This is my second pregnancy and with my son and this baby the most annoying symptoms are the growing boobs, especially how the nipples swell so much they turn flat, and in the first and third trimester the bladder .

Aside from that things are pretty peachy...not many other symptoms. What is your most annoying symptom?

Sore hips and back. Nothing compared to the hyperemesis I had until 15 weeks though. Makes everything seem easy this time.

Dry dry skin and constipation... I am currently surfing the internet while sitting in my bathroom waiting to go. I also just finished my makeup while trying to poo... time management at its finest.

The sickness easily. It's only the last 2 days I haven't actually been sick. Followed closely by the fatigue/drowsiness caused by the anti-sickness tablets. Ironic really haha.
Not had too much else symptomwise to complain about. Although I'm predicting my next complaint will be my sciatica getting worse. But we'll see x

For the first trimester it was the sickness and tiredness. But currently it's the backache and the reoccurring acne, so much for the glowing stage. Since I'm likely to have GD again that's not going to be a fun part either.

The ENTIRE first tri is the WORST part. Can't wait to be where you guys are.

I didn't get boob issues with my other kids, apart from a nursing aversion when pregnant with my daughter, but this time I have sore boobs and nipples are killing me.

The nausea and puking. Over 15 weeks and still going strong. I broke down on Saturday and asked the doctor about anti nausea medication for the worst days or to get a break from it every five days or so. Heard back this morning with a choice of three.

Second worst is the sleeping situation. I've always been a tummy sleeper. Second choice would be my back. And now I have to sleep on my side. It's not going well... I think I get through half the night on my side because I'm well propped with pillows but by halfway I manage to wiggle out from them. Every morning that I wake up sleeping on my belly the first thing that goes through my head is "DID I KILL THE BABY?!!". Totally nerve-wracking.

The nausea and fatigue were almost disabling for me in this pregnancy, but thank God it seems the nausea has seemed to have completely disappeared this past week. I've been extra tired this past week so I started my prenatals again to see if they help.

Even though the nausea is gone, I still have food aversions and my heightened sense of smell really bothers me.

And I agree the entire first trimester is just horrible. Just thinking about those first tri days makes me feel miserable again.

Morning sickness. In joint second are the recurrent infections and how uncomfortable all of my clothes are.

 

[Starlight32]

The mystery digestive pain I'm having in my stomach/chest area is by far the worst This makes the nausea in first tri look fun.

 

[biscuits104]

The anxiety! After two losses I just can't believe we might actually get to take this one home.

Pretty much everything about the 1st trimester sucked, which I feel bad saying because I'm SO GLAD I am pregnant, but we are all pregnant here and we know how much it sucks. The constant nausea and constipation are the worst physical symptoms...but at least the nausea is getting better now!

 

[Hopeful1479]

I have a few things as this is my second as well.... 1. THis is nothing like my first at all, I have had bleeding, super bad colds.... 2. Because of number 1 my anxiety has tripled!! 3. This is still the same as first my husband is somewhat uncomfortable having sex with me as I get bigger it freaks him out I call it TVS - Toxic Vagina Syndrom... 4. My growing fear my DS will resent me because of her new sister!!

Other than those Iam good...

The morning sickness and awful taste in my mouth

 

[laila 44]

For me it was the whole first trimester and the nausea. For now it's the disgusting constant aftertaste the occasional funny tummy and extreme lower back aches I've been getting after cleaning or standing for too long.

 

[Qmama79]

The whole first trimester sucked!! MS, vertigo, exhaustion, stress, bleeding, ... I'm truly happy & relaxed now. I'm fortunate that I could stop working & am aiming for a full term baby and natural birth this time! I'm getting really excited as I'm getting closer & closer & closer ...

 

[Misscalais]

Vomiting/nausea and fatigue. My nipples seem to get huge too and i only have small breasts, so it looks so put of proportion lol
Now ive got pregnancy insomnia setting in ( get ot every pregnancy ) and i find that the hardest to deal with. By the time i go into labour im an absolute tired and cranky mess.

 

[ChocolateC]

The awful pains I've gotten in my legs, like lightning is striking the back of my knee. Didn't have this in my first pregnancy. I'll take fatigue over this any day.

 

[wannabemomy37]

The constant nausea. At least in first tri I'd vomit and feel slightly better. Now it's just constant sick feeling, and smells make it worse!!

I'm jealous of 2nd tri momma's that symptoms ease for. 15 weeks and still feeling awful...

 

[hotpinklily84]

The first trimester it was the mostly all day nausea and horrendous fatigue. Now I have digestion issues like bloating,indigestion which can make me feel nauseous sometimes. Still have bouts of fatigue. Peeing alot and having bad lower back pain.

Inability to get relief from feeling gassy, and constipation
