As I'm getting further along, I'm noticing some change in symptoms and wondering if I'm alone. I know this gets hit on the weekly check in but I figured pulling it out may make it quicker to run through.
How far along are you?
Any new symptoms?
Any symptoms lessening or vanishing completely?

How far along? 17weeks by lmp but 17w2d according to all 3 US's so think I may officially move it up in my mind finally.
Any new symptoms?
Strong food aversions, stronger than first tri. Absolutely no chicken at all. I could eat pork tenderloin last night but gagged on grilled chicken on Saturday. Weird.
Increased baby movement. Nothing huge and I can go long stretches without but I'm feeling it a few times a day. With DS1&2 I made notes in week 18 that it picks up so I'm expecting it soon.
Cramps & lower backache - I had a rough day Sat that lingered into Sunday of what felt like growing pains. I had to lay down bc the cramping was strong and I almost took Tylenol. I have notes of similar experiences with my boys with a note of looking. Viger a few days later. Hoping it's the same this time.
Boobs - possibly feeling the letdown feeling? Anyone else with this? Out of nowhere it's come a few times, no milk or anything but I though this was odd.
Headaches at end of day
Vanishing or lessening symptoms?
My nausea is lessening. I only gag at really strong/bad smells.

How far along are you?
18w 4d
Any new symptoms?
Pretty sure this is due to the GD diagnosis and the constant spotting but the stress and anxiety is borderline out of control. Gonna talk to my doctor at Fridays appointment. Also, change in discharge... TMI but sometimes I get globs of mucousy discharge
Lessening or vanishing symptoms- nausea is almost completely gone and my aversions are slightly less but still there for chicken and sometimes eggs

How far along are you? 18 weeks
Any new symptoms? Increased round ligament pain when I move suddenly. I think I'm feeling less movement, which makes me nervous as all get out. I mentioned it to the midwife and she said they don't count on regular, predictable movement until 28 weeks. So that's not helpful. I just feel like it used to be more distinct and more regular than it is now. I still feel it probably once a day, but if I wasn't obsessed with feeling it I could easily miss it completely. Boobs are growing, I'm going to need new bras I think. They are so sensitive to the touch.
Any symptoms lessening or vanishing completely?
I still have lots of discharge but it might be lessening. I basically feel great. I could go days without even knowing I'm pregnant. Im really anxious for the movement to pick up because I basically feel worried about my lack of symptoms all the time.

How far along are you? 15 weeks 6 days Any new symptoms? starting to feel the symptoms of SPD  The first time around I did not have an issue with this until 3rd trimester. It's a little concerning that I am already feeling it so soon. Anybody else have experience with this? I did see the thread over on parenting the other week. I was thinking about trying out a different support belt. Any symptoms lessening or vanishing completely? Feeling a little more energy! |

13w + 2d
No new symptoms for me, but I'm just creeping into 2nd tri now.
My nausea is lessening, I suppose, but I still puked 2 times last week. I'm looking forward to that vanishing pretty soon here hopefully. I can stomach coffee again, though, so I'm calling that a big win!

Do you know where your placenta is? This kind of sounds like me with DS2 before I knew I had an anterior placenta. I know mines up top right now but I'm not feeling movement all the time yet either. |

I am 14+1. The symptom that worries me most is the pretty constant feeling of cramping I have at night. Every single I night I wake up with cramp like feelings, and it's been like this since before I even got my BFP. Sometimes they are pretty severe. My midwife has told me that it's normal, but it's hard not to worry about it. I'm also tired of having pain every single night!
Other than that, nausea has been getting better.

How far along are you? 18w6d Any new symptoms? stephne I've been feeling the symptoms too..constant dull pressure in the pelvis, there was a couple days where I overdid it and could hardly walk up and down our stairs by the evening and have a hard time sleeping. Otherwise, I often either feel really full or super hungry so I almost always overdo it while eating when I actually get hungry and end up with a stomachache bleh! Any symptoms lessening or vanishing completely? Been awhile since feeling nauseated or gotten sick. Still tired lots..but 2 and 4 year old lol. Probably less extreme than it was in first tri though. Boob pain comes and goes, but is less constant than first tri too. |

I don't know. I have my 20 wk ultrasound on Sept 11 so I will ask then. I was thinking that too. It took forever and ever to find the hb last time so it is possible the baby is not where the midwife would usually look for it and the placenta might be there. |

Are you drinking enough water? I get cramps when I'm not drinking enough. |

tiffrobot it's fucking terrible! I was thinking about trying out a different support belt this time around. Have you found one that you think helped? I don't know, I mean with DS my doctor gave me some tips to manage it but we never got an ultrasound done and it only lasted a few weeks because he was born at 33 weeks lol. So I bought a belt and I could tell the difference in support but also that it wasn't super comfortable to wear all the time. With DD it was just kind of constant dull pain and never got to the point of the sharp shooting pains down my leg. I'm still kind of hoping that will be the case this time now that I did get the sharp shooting pains and I'll just be more careful about my sitting and sleeping positions and such, but we'll see. I'll bring it up at my appt next week since it already hurts and see if she wants it checked out more. |

How far along are you? 21w
Any new symptoms? RLP has started. Also my left leg keeps falling asleep and I have some ankle swelling, mostly after work when I don't wear supportive shoes. Also major headaches. I had a migraine yesterday that was pretty bad.
Any symptoms lessening or vanishing completely? I really haven't had any boob pain since first tri.

17 weeks tomorrow... No physical symptoms really at the moment but every now and then I will get "cramping" around my cervix. I assume it is just Faith moving around where I can't feel it yet or maybe just everything stretching.

18 weeks today, and really zilch for symptoms. Just intermittently feeling the baby move. Also, my boobs are about a cup size bigger, so I'm considering that a win!

I have not read most of the thread. I am apologize. I am the worst. I have just been exhausted.
I am 20 weeks tomorrow. I am still tired but I think that's just from life. My feet occasionally swell. My boobs hurt most of the time. I feel baby once in awhile. I think it because of my weight that I don't feel it more often.

Stand up! Or flex your foot and pull your toes back to your shin as far as you can. If you stand step the afflicted leg back so you can stretch the calf. Pointing your toe will make t worse. |

I had the grossest scabbing/crusting on my nipples today. I scrubbed it in the shower but not all of it came off. Pregnancy is so sexy.

How far along are you? 17+1 Any new symptoms? ligament pain, some low back/tailbone pain if I sit on the floor playing with DD too long. rebeccabunch, I've also started having that weird let down sensation as well but haven't actually leaked milk either. It's strong enough that I have to look in my bra right away because I'm positive I must be leaking. I nursed DD for 18 months so I think my boobs are just prepping for the long haul. Any symptoms lessening or vanishing completely? My morning sickness is finally finally almost gone. Finally. I'm so thankful to feel human again. |

I'm 13 weeks 5 days.
I'm still nauseous most of the time which makes me not want to eat. Every time I do eat I get wicked bubbles stuck it feels like. And I seem to have bathroom issues which I can't tell if they are related to my thyroid meds or the pregnancy.

Any new symptoms?
Hip soreness. Much earlier than last time, which is annoying. I'm just about to go back to my job that involves standing all day. Can't teach on my butt for 6 months!
Any symptoms lessening or vanishing completely?
Nausea and miserable exhaustion are not entirely gone, but feel much more manageable.
