I've been feeling this way, too, for a couple of weeks (I'm 35w now). I'll be starving and eat something, then feel nauseous for the rest of the day. Or I'll have no appetite and be so starving later on that I feel like complete crap, but still not want to eat anything. I have resorted back to the Zofran a few times and have been going heavy on the Sprite. MWs are telling me this is normal and that nobody knows for sure why this happens (hormones, squished parts,...
You have the brilliant idea that after baby comes, you can take the shirt that you're wearing today and let your LO use it in the backyard as a tent.
OMG - thanks MisaGoat! I just spent about 20 min searching Amazon and couldn't figure it out. It was driving me NUTS (probably worse than the OP)!! Whew.
Maybe a baking soda wash with a vinegar rinse (for the hair)? Watch the eyes if you try this though; the vinegar can really, really sting (speaking from personal experience)!
If I need to use one, I just grab one of my cut up t-shirt parts that I'm using for TP (because I'm pg and I pee all. the.time.) When I'm done with it I just throw it in the used bin I keep in the bathroom. I've been using the hankerchiefs mostly for my allergy type runny nose, so it's not *too* nasty. If I had a really nasty, infectious cold I might resort back to Kleenex.
(lurking from April DDC...) With DS I had diarrhea for two days - then came the vomiting! Pretty soon after that my water broke and it was all downhill (or uphill!) from there. Sounds like maybe your body is getting ready by cleaning itself out? Good luck and hang in there - sounds like things are a-happenin'!!
I've been wondering the same thing! I actually ended up at L&D for monitoring on Sunday b/c of the back pain and crampy feelings. I've been feeling generally blah for a few days - achy and tired - but not as acutely as when I've had the flu in the past. So I guess I'm not totally alone in this, fwiw. Feel better soon!
We had a sample of (I think) Nordic Naturals at the store the other day and DS *loved* them. Right now we have Rainbow Light Gummy Omegalicious and DS gobbles them up every am - lots of sugar in them I think but I don't mind as long as he's getting the omega 3s.
I had what's called the "ultrascreen" where they do a detailed u/s at 12-14 weeks along with a blood test then repeat the blood test later (I forget how many weeks - 18 or so maybe?). We decided to do the testing because our philosophy is the more information available to us, the better. Different people feel differently, however. It was very interesting, though, when the genetic counselor we met with immediately prior to the testing said something along the lines...
Our pet-sitter, who is also a feng shui consultant, thought we needed a bagua mirror to hang above the door b/c we live at the end of a cul-de-sac. Apparently this can attract negative energy (or something? I'm not sure exactly what but I believe her). Anyway, here's a bit of info: http://fengshui.about.com/od/glossar...aguamirror.htm
