Early vents about pregnancy...

[smjmekg]

Just to get one started, I'm making a post about things we're not liking so far about our pregnancies...Of course they're all wonderful because at the end we get our little angels, but there are some not so enjoyable things as we all will learn more about the further we get...I'll start off this one.

Vent number one...I CAN'T GO NUMBER TWO!!! Sorry TMI, but I keep getting gas/constipation cramps, I just went today for the first time in two days...and before that I had diarrhea...I hope I get a little more regular and reach a happy medium soon...lol. It's been no going or diarrhea...ugh.

I completely agree with the constipation!!  It's terrible!!  I'm the same as smjmekg...one extreme or the other!!!  

Jilian - I didn't get most of my sympthoms until 5 weeks and the sickness didn't really start until 5 1/2 - 6 weeks.  Before that, I was the same as you.  Don't stress about a lack of sympthoms, they'll come in their own time.  Good luck!

Thank GOD i am not the only one ! WHAT is up with that! I got so excited yesterday because i ate a ton of fiber&thought ....FINALLY...but no, it was like rabbit pellets!
The cramps that go with constipation are awful, i wonder if its that or if its something going wrong with the pregnancy.

My vent is that I don't  have more symptoms....it worries me.  All I have is a bit of mild breast tenderness and the occassional twinge.  I know it's early cuz I'm only 4 wks and 5 days along, but it is still hard for me to believe there is actually a baby in there...

I can't stand the night sweats, at about 3am every morning I wake up wet. I'm sick of being tired too, it's so hard to go for my required daily walk when I'm so tired.

Im hating my mood swings and irritability!!! I can handle all the other symptoms and actually the more I get the more at ease I am.. but the moodiness has to go!! Its making it hard to enjoy the experience..  esp with the boyfriend. lol but I just cant help it. He handles it very well though.. poor Billy! Hopefully the crazyness with subside soon hehe.
