Symptoms they don't tell you about

[moonlight1705]

So sickness, muscle pain etc is always talked about but they don't warn you about fun little things like getting hives.

My back and stomach feel like I could scratch them off.

Turns out that my new ability to park wonkily is also down to hormones I was good at parking before.

Having a girl - I'm naturally quite hairy though so I think I'm just predisposed to body hair with hormones. I've not noticed myself, but husband says my bum hole is horrendously hairr!

Acne! Worst than my teenage years. Where is my glow everyone promised?!

So interesting to see others have random symptoms I did

Constant runny nose/bits of blood coming out
Dear God the wind, and pain that goes with it right up to shoulders
Achey legs
Everything even water causing reflux

A sudden abundance of skin tags and tiny moles. 7 years on and the skin tags have gone but the moles haven't.

I went up 2 shoe sizes and stayed there. I gave away all my lovely lovely fantastic shoes and boots to my nice Sil and buy new shoes. When i was poor, so nothing more than 2 pairs of practical cheap ugly hooves

(TMI...) my flaps swelled up and went purple and veiny - sooooooooo not attractive!

I got a thick hairy line from bellybutton to pubes. And overnight i got literally a rug of hair on each big toe - when i went in the sea, small sea creatures hid in my hairy toe carpet from predators

I. Could. Not. Stop. Farting. Standing up, sitting down, laughing, sneezing, reaching for a cuppa, turning the page in a book. I once walked all the way around a shop bubble-farting the entire time (noisless and smell-free, i hasten to add!).

Twas a very attractive time!

Loss of apetite but still wanting to eat everything...

Carrots taste like dirt atm but in my first couple of weeks were heavenly!

The feeling of your stomach stretching, feels like im being kneeded from the inside out, god help when baby starts to move!

Not really a symptom but how hard they press down in the ultrasound! I was bruised for days

Really dry lips and being constantly thirsty (always for coffee -_-)

The list feels endless 😫 and we're not even at the end of our first trimester 😫😂

Piles, internal & external.

Breathlessness - when walking up a flight of stairs or just randomly on the sofa when lungs getting squished
Insomnia and exhaustion
Restless legs
Sensitive skin - overwhelming urges to have skin exposed sometimes, Can just about tolerate leggings and t shirt
Hot mid section and feeling like a walking oven
Swollen lady bits and constant feeling of clamminess down below..

Ugh it's all fucking shit really, six weeks to go and counting the minutes!!

Oh yes to extra hair (not on head!) I am now the not so proud owner of a hairy bum😣
