I'm now at 17 weeks! The last couple of weeks have been pretty mild in terms of symptoms. But there are some symptoms I thought would be gone this trimester that I just can't seem to be done with lol. But as long as baby is healthy, I'll deal! Here's what I experienced during the past 2 weeks:
* bleeding gums... a normal occurrence during pregnancy, so I just keep up with my flossing and brushing regimen
* mildly sore boobs... during week 16, I started having some very sharp pains (almost like needles) and I read that weeks 16-22 is when you start gearing up to produce colostrum
* nausea (only when I didn't eat soon enough)
* "morning" sickness... which actually happened just one afternoon 60 seconds after eating lunch
* heartburn/indigestion
* itchy tummy
* fatigue
* round ligament pain... I almost DREAD sneezing because of these pains!
* gender reveal... we were able to find out at my 16 week appointment what the sex of the baby is!
* frequent urination... baby is quite low and I think is laying on my bladder, which is better than the diagonal position baby was in during the ultrasound at 16 weeks
* fetal movement... now I'm certain about the flutters I feel being baby; it tends to happen when I have the iPad or laptop laying on my belly
* "morning" sickness... which actually happened just one afternoon 60 seconds after eating lunch
* heartburn/indigestion
* itchy tummy
* fatigue
* round ligament pain... I almost DREAD sneezing because of these pains!
* gender reveal... we were able to find out at my 16 week appointment what the sex of the baby is!
* frequent urination... baby is quite low and I think is laying on my bladder, which is better than the diagonal position baby was in during the ultrasound at 16 weeks
* fetal movement... now I'm certain about the flutters I feel being baby; it tends to happen when I have the iPad or laptop laying on my belly
So the list was long but weeks 15 and 16 weren't so bad. I'm curious to see what the next 2 weeks will bring... =)
