Ever since I found I was pregnant, my ears keep popping! Anyone else experiencing this or anything else?

Yes to the ears popping! It was driving me mad, seems to have eased off a bit now (22 weeks) but still get it from time to time! Also:

In the first trimester I was freezing all the time
Constantly drippy nose (lovely!)
So many spots, especially around my hairline and on my chest?!
Waking up with a mouth drier than the sahara in the middle of the night
Wind Blush

Yes, to the wind.

Yes, to the dry mouth

And yes be freezing in very early pregnancy!

Another one....I'd heard that you would be tearful but no one said anything about the bad moods!

Oh gosh, I have been a rabid hormonal beast! Alternating between tears, terrible anxiety, awful moods and (in between times!) pure elation and excitement. Poor DH thinks I've lost the plot (he may be right...!)

With dc1, dc2 & dc3 I suffered terrible TMD (where the jaw keeps locking). I have had it since but I'd never had it before, it stopped each time at around 11 weeks.

Not pregnancy related but I was once prescribed sleeping pills that had the unfortunate side effect of giving me hiccoughs, not helpful in sending me to sleep Grin

I suffered with Patulous Eustachian tube with all my 3 dcs. Drove me absolutely nuts. Especially towards end of pregnancy as it always got worse. The ear kind of pops and I could hear my voice really loudly along with my breathing. Apparently the hormones can cause it (although I first got it in my 20s after becoming underweight). Pregnancy hormones also gave me pelvic girdle pain!

Yes to spots and wind Blush

A really good one that I didn't expect was that my hair looks clean for so much longer. It's great and kicked in at about 3.5 months, happened with dd1 too, I can be on day four and only wash it because I know that it needs washing, could probably get away with another day of leaving it unwashed. It's also so much less frizzy and I don't have to try as hard with it, it just kinda falls how I always want it to. Other than getting a baby after the 9 months the hair thing is one of the few parts of pregnancy that I enjoy Grin

YY to the hair! First pregnancy where I haven't had dreadlocks so actually been able to actually appreciate my lush head of hair Grin I will point out though that this lushness of hair extends to all bodily hair too

Bad moods - catastrophic moods more like. The last 3 days I have totally hated my DH and everything in the world was wrong and I was crying and tearful and feeling so sorry for myself. It just lifted at noon, all by itself (actually, my sister's company, day off from work and the sun reall helped too).
