Pregnancy Body - Awkward and strange things pregnancy does to you...

[CloverHeart]

Anyone else notice anything very different?

I've just hit 12 weeks with DC2 and my body is doing some bizarre things already.

I noticed this morning in the shower that I am excessively hairy

I'm talking hairy belly, bottom of my back, arms etc. My leg hair is also growing at double its normal rate.

Add that to the odd patch of scaly and very itchy skin on the back of my shin and I feel like I am morphing into some sort of lagoon creature

Hairy belly here too. Between weeks 6 and 12 I had zillions of mouth ulcers and approximately 4 horrendous colds. Nails were so strong that in one week I stabbed DH in the hand trying to take the keys from him, then stabbed 2yo DD in the face and made them both bleed. Then they all broke off at the same time a few weeks later. Yy to cm, boak, and sexy dreams. Fecking SPD making my hips sore and pelvis grind, plus shooting pains down my buttocks. I'm a delight to be around!

I'm having a girl and I haven't shaved my legs in what feels like months and don't need to - no hair growing there anymore ! And minimal growth everywhere else too except head - definitely longer and thicker ! My skin has gone super soft Ridiculous amounts of CM - so annoying having to change panty pad couple times and day and then when I get home just put new knickers/leggings on as don't feel fresh ! SO much washing right now.
Bum/Hip cramps when I wake up in the morning, restless leg (only one leg!), Generally feeling like I'm going to explode and that my skin can't possibly stretch anymore but I'm only 23 weeks - arg ! VERY inappropriate dreams...Hysterical crying for no reason. Sniffer dog sense of smell. Have developed a bit of a manic/evil laugh! Forgetting everything and saying incorrect words in sentences eg. Chicken instead of Christmas. SO MUCH WIND - JESUS ! Feel like I can't get enough oxygen in when I breathe - can't breathe deeply enough - but DP says I sound like an air conditioning unit at night cos I breathe so deeply in my sleep. Oh pregnancy...you are funny.

I thought I had really weirdly itchy boobs, until I realised I'd somehow manged to get biscuit crumbs down my bra. Although, you could argue that it was a pregnancy symptom, because I'm constantly nibbling on biscuits to keep the sickness at bay.

I have crazy saliva! I always wake up in the night with my face stuck to my pillow! Feel like sleepin on a bloody towel its orrid >.< xx
