The moment I lay down flat it is all gone (not very practical in a group office setting with basically only males though ;-) ). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1806478 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 17:18:45 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 1806478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nausea, puking and last night (17.5 weeks) I had the most painful trapped gas... So bad that I couldn't stand, walk or move out of certain laying positions. It was so very painful!!! But, hey.... TOTALLY worth it!! :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1806462 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 16:59:24 +0000 MRSJX3 1806462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The hormones. My God, the hormones.</p> <p>And I say that after having such bad morning sickness that I broke blood vessels in my face!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1805903 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 11:58:21 +0000 yellowbird 1805903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Currently I have all day nausea to the point of dry heaving, acne all over my face and a thousand mouth ulcers. I hate all of them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1805769 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 11:14:16 +0000 mfa_lady 1805769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>SNISSING. Best term ever. And I mean, how is that happening already at only 18+6?!</p> <p>But, for me, the worst is probably the headaches. They put me totally out of commission! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1805726 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 10:58:31 +0000 Boogs 1805726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pumuckl: Could it be to possibly rhinitis of pregnancy, like from the post nasal drip? If so, maybe some sort of allergy medicine would help? </p> <p>@MamaMoose: It is! That's good you aren't currently dealing with it. :)</p> <p>@MarieJ: I'm nearing the end, and am only getting that now. But, I also get the pain from just moving the wrong way. No clue what it is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1805580 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 10:14:55 +0000 MarieJ 1805580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BakerBee: Thanks! It was really awful. I was driving &amp; the pain really caught me off guard. I'll have to remember that for next time ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1805564 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 10:10:59 +0000 LBee 1805564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MarieJ: Round ligament pain :happy: - curl up into a ball before you sneeze or bend over and it should help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1805468 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 09:43:33 +0000 Adira 1805468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heartburn! I HATE heartburn and I've got it even earlier this time around! It sucks! :(</p> <p>Also, totally agree about snissing. I had that problem last pregnancy and it lasted after Xander was born and now it's worse. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1805458 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 09:40:26 +0000 snowjewelz 1805458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm only 24 weeks today so I'm sure there will be more unpleasant symptoms to come... But so far I def do not want to relive the exhaustion and nausea from 1st trimester! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1805411 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 09:30:23 +0000 MarieJ 1805411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sneezed this morning and got a weird pain under my belly. Anyone ever experience that? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom/page/2#post-1805378 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 09:22:28 +0000 Somebunny 1805378@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was the itching for me too. It was only the soles of my feet. Weird? But it was SO BAD. I couldn't sleep at night because I wanted to claw my feet off. The only thing that helped was icing them until they were numb. lol I got up at least 3 times a night to do that so I could get some sleep, any sleep at all. Luckily it only lasted 2-3 weeks. But it was worse than anything else. By far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1805342 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 09:08:59 +0000 LulaBee 1805342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Currently it's the nausea that NEVER goes away, but I'm sure as my pregnancy progresses it will change to carpal tunnel, sciatic pain, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1805266 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 08:43:28 +0000 LBee 1805266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The inability to control my emotions. I can deal with all the physical stuff, but crying during a client meeting because they said something sweet? Borderline crazy / inappropriate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1805248 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 08:38:48 +0000 LovelyPlum 1805248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: so I had something similar-both of my hips dislocated slightly from my falls this winter, and due to my friend relaxin, they *would not* stay back in. The ligaments around my pubic bone also got really, really tight when they were out of place. It was basically a hot mess. Yes, I did deliver, but it was not fun. I pretty much bit the nurse's head off when she tried to put my legs in the stirrups-that was worse than any back labor I had to that point. They had to get creative with positioning when I was pushing and ended up dropping the foot of the bed down so my body and legs were completely flat, my knees were bent at 90 degrees, and my feet were on the little step they created below the bed by dropping it down. That was literally the only way I wasn't writhing in pain. I also took the vacuum assist the second they offered it, because I could feel my hips moving as baby dropped. I don't know how much my experience in delivery translates to the experience of someone with SPD, but I do know that my symptoms before it were really similar. I don't mean to scare anyone with my experience, though. In the end, it turned out OK, and I felt a million times better as soon as she was out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1805146 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 07:46:25 +0000 Circusbee 1805146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>so far it's the bacne and horribly sensitive gag reflex :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1805090 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 06:57:18 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1805090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: did you have it and successfully deliver? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1805079 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 06:28:05 +0000 looch 1805079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine was the ankle swelling.

Lately I've had awful insomnia so that's what I'll be complaining about today. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1805070 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 05:59:31 +0000 MamaMoose 1805070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: oh I'm not currently pregnant (thanks goodness!!)

It started at 6 weeks this time and is still going strong at 17 weeks. I hate, hate, hate it! I hear everything muffled - drives me crazy at work. The only way to stop it is to lay down flat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1805022 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 01:03:11 +0000 Boogs 1805022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@californiadreams: It lasts my entire pregnancy and sucks. My dentist said try not using toothpaste and it should help, but somehow it doesn't feel as clean. </p> <p>@MamaMoose: Have you tried taking only half a pill at a time to see if it helps? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1804992 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 23:31:18 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1804992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At the moment, middle of the night peeing. </p> <p>And there's the SPD, round ligament pain and the gigantic belly that I have to hold up when I walk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1804987 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 23:18:04 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1804987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm with you on the itching! Just talked to my doctor today, and she OK'd me to take freeze-dried nettle pills. They helped a ton last year when I had hives that wouldn't go away, hopefully they help this time too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1804893 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 21:51:28 +0000 MamaMoose 1804893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nausea &gt; Zofran to treat the nausea &gt; horrible constipation from the Zofran </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1804869 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 21:30:56 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 1804869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like I have almost everything everyone has mentioned. I have been snissing since I was pregnant with my first and never really got over it the past 2.5 years. </p> <p>My worst is weird. I wake up sneezing uncontrollably every morning around 3:45. (Plus cue inevitable snissing). It drives me crazy. Usually I am then up for the day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/most-frustrating-pregnancy-symptom#post-1804862 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 21:26:44 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1804862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Breathlessness!

I have a short torso, and am carrying high, so it feels like this baby is wedged up in my ribs, and it just hurts!</p> <p>I can't wait for this whole dropping thing everybody talks about- maybe I'll have to pee every 5 minutes, but at least she'll be out of my ribcage! :grin: </p>
