Pick one to share! I'm sure there are many 
I'm 25 weeks today and my back just ACHES... App did say my hormones are going wacko again which leads to body aches.
I'd really like a hot bath and for DH to massage my back nonstop!

Morning sickness. It's become more psychologically unbearable than physically. Waking up and feeling terrible and knowing I won't get a moment of feeling good all day brings me LOW!
The irony that forcing myself to eat (when it's the last thing I want to do in the entire world) makes me feel better is also just too much. Ha ha! Ack!
-
I'm only 5 weeks but the fatigue, cramps & leg aches are making it a struggle to get through this (&every other) day.
-
@makemake: Ugggh I remember that... I really hope it goes away for you asap! Hang in there!
@Mrs. Sunshine: I remember that fatigue too... It's like... Utter exhaustion that comes out of nowhere and you just want to sit/lay there and not move a muscle!
-
24 weeks and heartburn!
-
Nausea and exhaustion....can't wait to get through this first trimester....
-
9 weeks & mood swings...I'm just up and down and I can't control it. Yesterday was so bad, I just wanted to curl up and cry because I was so crabby toward my family.
-
26 weeks and my hips (not sure if it's sciatic pain or sacro iliac joint) are causing me so much pain I can barely walk some days. It literally takes my breath away if I move too fast. Some days are horrible and I wonder how long I can do this, and then I'll have a great day afterwards - thank goodness for that!
-
22 weeks and butt cheek pain! WTH?!
-
36 weeks and swelling feet. I had a good bit of swelling the past month or so, but last week was when it got out of control. My doctor even said 'Yikes!' when she saw it
I would have said heartburn/acid reflux but I'm now on a RX for it so I haven't had to experience it like I was a couple weeks ago! But that was for sure, BRUTAL.
-
@oliviaoblivia: Haha like.. Achy? Pinching/shooting pain?! Maybe the butt is growing? lol. My pregnancy weight so far is going straight to my butt/thighs...
-
NON.STOP.NAUSEA. i'm only 7 weeks so this first trimester is kicking my ass. i've already thrown up at work once today. i can't eat ANYTHING but bagels. literally. i have lost 6 lbs!!!! eating exclusively carbs!!!! i feel on the verge of throwing up... all.day.long. starting to think this LO might be an only child cuz this is miserable.
-
@snowjewelz: shooting. I guess it's sciatica. But it only hurts in my butt! So weird. It makes walking difficult sometimes.
-
@loki: Ohh I am so sorry you had to be sick at work
It's ok, I thought the same thing (and I wasn't even as bad) but once you're cruising in 2nd trimester you do forget the 1st tri pains, just a little!
-
@snowjewelz: i hope that's true cuz otherwise i'm gonna be traumatized! i've thrown up at work a few times and even more at home. i have three other friends who are currently pregnant and none of them had it/have it as bad as me right now, which is depressing haha.
-
@Adira: Same here. I can't eat or drink anything without heartburn. I'm currently taking Pepcid, once a day and Tums before I eat. My OB says if it doesn't get better I'll need a script
-
20 weeks, and this sinus congestion (pregnancy rhinitis) is getting old
-
@TheReelDeal: Oh man, I'm sorry! Sounds like you have it worse than me. I've been popping Tums after I eat, but I've been able to keep it under control so far.
-
@charmed: Do we get that? I was sooo congested for the past 2 weeks, I thought I had allergies, then I thought I had a cold!
-
25w4d and so ready to stop throwing up every day
But, because I actually love being pregnant and will happily take any and all vomiting that I need to for this little guy, I will also add that it is so much fun to feel his movements get stronger and stronger!
-
@theotherstark: omg 25 weeks!!! everyone keeps promising me this will stop at 12!!!! you just broke my heart. you have such a great attitude about it, i'm not nearly as chipper and i'm only at 7! haha.
-
My belly is heavy!
-
@loki: Ha, to be fair, mine was much worse earlier on (ie multiple times a day, and nauseous for most of the day). Now, I have just been throwing up once or twice in the morning, and then I'm okay.
But, I'm a rare case, I believe. I imagine you'll be feeling much better in the 2nd tri
Hang in there!! 
-
Nausea after it had been gone for over a week. 12 weeks.
-
33w5d and the insomnia has been brutal for the past week or so. I'm awake for 1-3 hours every night for no reason. I'm also not a fan of the recent swelling of my hands and feet, but it really hasn't been too bad so far.
-
Fatigue. Just when I think I'm getting the second tri burst (I'm 16w5d), I have a morning like today in which not getting of the subway at the wrong stop is a challenge. My level of fatigue appears to be wholly unrelated to how much sleep I got the night before.
-
@youboots: Ugh that's the worst when it sneaks back up on ya!
@Mrs. Detour: I feel you... Even tho 2nd trimester is supposed to be great, it's still different day by day.
-
@snowjewelz: yes, something to do with pregnancy related swelling I think? I've been having sinus headaches/congestion since about 6 weeks- I don't have allergies or anything else that would cause so I'm blaming pregnancy.
-
30 weeks- humidty and I are not getting along! I keep getting over heated, which makes me lightheaded, nauseas and shaky! I went to get a hair cut today and had to get her to stop twice because I was getting so hot under the cape in the humidity today!!!
-
@charmed: That shed so much light on what I was having! I was so confused b/c I never had congestion as an allergy symptom, but then I didn't feel sick sick either!
-
13 weeks and omg dry heaving is worse than just throwing up
-
18.5 weeks and hip pain! Did not have this with #1 so its annoying.
-
@oliviaoblivia: sciatica for me too! hate it. both this time and last pregnancy it's only on my left butt cheek but it is really annoying.
-
Almost 27 weeks, and my belly is starting to feel reaaaaally heavy! I need to invest in a maternity belt I think. Ugh. Only 13 weeks left!
-
Sinus infection for 6 weeks. Serious facial pain/sinus headache which aggravates my TMJ and then gives me migraines. Wah wah.
-
Nausea. Since 5 weeks. I'm 15 weeks now, and it has improved some in the last two weeks, but it is still here. I tried to reduce my dose of Diclegis again--big mistake.
Also, aversions. So many food aversions. I haven't had meat since about week 8. Even just typing the word made me gag.
-
I've had a cold for the past week and now that cold has turned into a cough. Sigh...and whenever I cough, I pee. I'm only 16 weeks, so this doesn't bode well for the rest of the pregnancy. Darn lack of bladder control from my first baby!
-
Peeing my pants.
-
40w2d... my complaint is that I am still pregnant!
-
@Mrs. Lion: Dry heaving is definitely worse than throwing up.
8 weeks: If I have to pick one, today it's exhaustion. My fatigue had gotten a lot better last week but today I am yawning in meetings and ready to curl up under my desk.
I feel so bad for you guys who are having serious nausea. I've only felt a little queasy most days, and only thrown up a couple of times. Really hoping it doesn't take a dive for the worse.
It's ok, I thought the same thing (and I wasn't even as bad) but once you're cruising in 2nd trimester you do forget the 1st tri pains, just a little!
Hang in there!!
