What are your symptoms right now?

Confirmed mamas. What are your symptoms right now?

I’m 5w+3 and my biggest symptoms are constant sore boobs. Especially in the morning - I sleep on my stomach. And then I feel so nauseous all the time.

Anyone have any tips for helping with the symptoms?

I’m so so grateful to be pregnant after a year of TTC, so i feel guilty complaining about my symptoms. Just wondering if anything has helped you with either.

First congratulations!! I’m 6 weeks today. My first symptom I noticed was sore boobs and they’ve gotten way bigger already. I’ve had nausea but not getting sick. My stomach has been cramping a bit along with lower/middle back pain.

I’d try to start sleeping on your side so when you start getting a bump you’ll already be adjusted to sleeping on your side! I’ve learned when I sleep on my stomach and wake up- the nausea is way worse.

Dont feel bad about “complaining” because you’re not, this is a process and it’s all new to “new mommas” ❤️ you learn something new everyday :)

Congratulations!!! I’m 5W+3 as well!!

I’ve been having nausea with no puking, waking up throughout the night, bloating, fatigue, and sore boobs.

❤️

hey, i’m about as far along as you are. i have nausea, as well as fatigue, aversion to some foods, and waking up through the night.

i’ve heard that eating crackers first thing in the morning can help. you may want to check out @prenatalnutritionist on IG if you find that nausea makes eating hard. she has lots of good tips. i’ve never had morning sickness that bad, but have heard that motion sickness bands can help, as well as some meds like unisom and b6.

congrats! you’re on the journey :)

5 weeks 3 days. Nausea. Food aversion. Bloating. Lower back pain. Extreme fatigue. Frequent short naps throughout the day have been helping me a lot.

In my first pregnancy, I had constant nausea pretty much all day long from 3W5D until like 13-14 weeks. Setting an alarm to eat a snack in the middle of the night took a big edge off the morning nausea. B12 and Unisom also helped take the edge off. But just time is unfortunately the best remedy. Hopefully in the next few weeks you’ll turn a corner and the nausea will die off 🫶🏻

Correction B6 not B12

Nausea (saltines first thing in the morning are helping!), sore boobs, exhaustion.

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)

I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol

What are your symptoms?

Planned c section

Has anyone had a planned c section and been home the same day?

C section compression socks

Hey ladies when did you ditch the compression socks and how mobile were you when you did? I’m so done with them! 6 weeks tomorrow since the op and im walking around the house doing jobs and baby care but not really out and about yet (the odd day I am) is it safe to ditch the socks?
