Fella #2 has been hanging on my right side and I am looking totally lopsided. Also noticing some stretch marks on my right side from the fella stretching out? Meh!
TMI. My belly button has stretched and flatten out and I am so excited to clean it thoroughly. I am so happy to get to do this again 😂😂

duskymonkey Ditto on the flat belly button! It's so flat already that I'm kind of worried it will pop out and become an outie. In fact, I just showed it to DH and asked if he thought it was on the verge of popping out, and he was like - yeah, probably! Not the right answer DH. Not the right answer.

I finally had a decent bowel movement yesterday. It was glorious and I'm positive that it will be another 5 days before I get to experience that again.

Like for commiseration as I'm struggling with this as well. It's no fun at all. Also, anecdote: after having DD I went a full 7 days without going. The most miserable I've ever felt in my life. The combo of stopping pain meds (didn't know they caused constipation) and drinking coffee finally did the trick for me. I dread the possibility of that happening again.

Heartburn. Sciatic nerve pain. Fatigue. Bouts of constipation. More heartburn.
TMI but... increased discharge. I remember this with DD but ugh. I do not feel any glorious 2nd trimester glow and I'll be 3rd tri soon.

duskymonkey , I totally look lopsided too. DD1 liked my right side more and I guess DD2 does as well!! My SI joint has been really bothering me, if I bend too far I get stuck because it's so painful. Constipation is hanging out this whole pregnancy.

Liking things in solidarity, not because I think the symptoms are fantastic.
I'm still getting headaches that last for days and won't go away. And my belly button is an outie. But the hemorrhoids are gone, so that's cool.

Commiseration LT to all ladies! Taitai, I feel like I am already about to pop out! and don't remember popping out this early with DS. Trying to find the silver lining that I can clean my BB lol! thatgirlrachel, cythe, I am already uncomfortable and in pain in the early am before I have a BM and I go daily! I just cannot fathom how you guys are dealing with it...I will continue eating all the flax meal in any shape or form I can just to avoid constipation. |

And for those who don't know, Carefree makes thong pantyliners too. For those of us that prefer those, just FYI. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'm supposed to call if I get a headache that doesn't clear up with Tylenol because of Pre-e. |

A word of warning
If you feel the reflux starting, take the meds. Even if it is a ridiculous early time of day. TAKE THEM.
Otherwise, you will find yourself throwing up and dry heaving and then hate yourself.
Or maybe that is just my morning and now the rest of my day. My throat hurts so much I can't swallow from dry heaving. Tater tots from late night snack weren't exactly easy this go round. 👎🏻

My belly button is an outie.  I got hemorrhoids last pregnancy thanks to first tri constipation. They were external and never really hurt. They are back, despite not being constipated this time around. Not.Fair. Is hemmy cream like Prep-H for pain/discomfort only, or can it also help them go away? |

CoachTsWife , from my understanding dealing with hubs H's, Prep-H reduces the swelling. Sorry you have them too. Stinks! Pregnancy is so glamorous. Also forgot to add, witch hazel also helps which I think is what's in Tuck pads?

Thanks duskymonkey, I'll have to pick something up. They don't bother me at all, but I definitely want them to go away. |

CoachTsWife prep-H and tucks did the trick for me. I also ate more fiber and drank more water. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
