I'll start with pregnancy related. I've been super gassy the past week that I swear I can power a small machine with all the methane my body is producing. I also start ripping them out late evenings and bedtime. I really don't know how hubs will ever find me attractive again 😫

I have one...my heartburn/reflux will make me throw up a bit in my mouth if I don't drink my liquids slowly enough - or if I eat food too quickly. It's sooooo icky. Every time I grimace while eating, DH just gives me this squeamish/sympathetic look ☹️...yuck.
This kid better have a full head of beautiful dark hair like DS to make up for it!

Constipation. The struggle is real. What does everyone else do to deal with it? I think I'm gonna pick up some yogurt at the grocery store because it can't hurt.

I feel so bad for my husband. He's so amazing and understanding, but I feel like a crummy wife. Pregnant me has zero interest in sex and it's been probably 3 months. This has happened every single pregnancy, for the whole pregnancy+some of the breastfeeding time.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I Amazon Prime it, like everything else in my life. This is what I use.You absolutely don't need an Rx. You probably don't want to wait for a Prime delivery if you're currently struggling, but I think any drug store would have some, maybe not the brand I posted. If you have a Whole Foods, Sprouts, or similar close by, they're sure to have it.

duskymonkey I am gassy too, I have been randomly letting some gas go if I adjust position. This did not happen so early in my last pregnancy.

What time of day did you guys take magnesium CoachTsWife, August Blooms ? Is it more like a laxative effect or stool softener? #importantquestions

Is it more like a laxative effect or stool softener? #importantquestions I was advised to take it at night just in case it had undesirable consequences. I've never had trouble with "urgency" but every body is different. It acts like a relaxer so it can also aid in sleep in that it might help you relax a bit. In my experience, it isn't an immediate fix. Take one tablet at night, if you still are having trouble the next day take two tablets that night. I've heard great things about the Natural Calm August Blooms linked!

After the church picnic on Sunday, we were driving home and I swallowed wrong, causing me to do a choking cough. I coughed so hard, I puked all over the front of our car. Luckily H was driving, and I somehow managed to miss him, but it was super gross.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I'm really struggling with it this time around. I try to up my water intake and fruit consumption. Magnesium made me vomit twice last pregnancy and since I'm still currently doing that anyway this time around, I'd rather not add more. Not sure if the water and fruit is helping or not.

Re: constipation. Sorry some of you are having to deal with this. I can only imagine. I am legit miserable in the am when I wake up if I don't have my daily BM within an hour or so. I make sure I have my double daily dose of flaxmeal and fruits esp. pears. You can also mix a tbsp in your yogurt. I literally put that stuff in everything I make. I prefer to find a remedy in my diet before turning to other things. Also try prune juice and i also snack on prunes daily.

rachydc What coachtswife said, at night since it acts to relax. If you get the stuff I suggested start out with a small amount because you may end up with the opposite problem.

I take psyllium husk fiber capsules. I usually pop 6 of those every three days and I've been pretty regular so far.
If things get...diffucult, I throw in a stool softener.
