June 2021 - part 4!

[swiftt]

We filled up the other thread already!

@Waitingforbabypage Yes same here as regards to SPD, I have an annoying niggle pain on the right side pubic bone, which, providing I don’t do too much, seems to manageable atm!

The leaking breasts haven’t happened to me but I know they can, haha, when I had my 1st baby, they started leaking 2 days after birth, used to soak the bed and my PJ’s 🤣🤣🤣.

My nasal thing seems to be clearing but I have this annoying stuck mucus feeling in the back of my nose, upper throat, makes me want to clear it allllllllll the time throughout the day, eeeeeeeerrrr getting so damn annoying 😩😩😩

@Fishingforhappiness Gosh from 17 weeks, your boobs are kean 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Do you just wear a crop top of something with little cotton pads inside? :)

@Humpty11 Yes, my GP said Nasal sticks are okay to use, I’m using a few times a day!

I’m pretty clear now as regards to stuffiness, I’ve been doing nasal wash outs with cooled boiled water and bicarb/salt added to clear it out and re -set the PH, I have to do it twice daily for a month.

My issue is I have this stuck mucus feeling at the back of my nose/ upper throat, which makes me want to clear (or try to) my throat allllll day long!

@AIRRRR I have also gone from a C- DD/E cup. So bought all new bras. Ive been wearing the Calvin Klein nursing bras the big band at the bottom is super comfy. When they leaked a little I used my bamboo make up pads and that was enough and felt quite soft and still do during the day. At night I've needed more so use the Lansinoh disposable breast pads.

@Fishingforhappiness oh wow! Mine haven’t really changed 😂😂😂😂 It all happened for me after birth , big and leaking haha

At least you know your milk will defiantly be ready haha! Are you feeling good otherwise?

Does boobs become leaky before birth at all?? I'm actually looking forwards to it, my mum never produced enough milk so couldn't BF, feel like a lot of pressure towards BF so would be devastated if it doesn't happen!

On another note, baby only kick on one side of my belly, is this normal?? Haven't felt anything at all on my left! Also, my RHS protrudes more so it's a wonky bump!

My boobs are huge. I've gone up 4 bra sizes! (Please make them stop!! Bras are expensive 😭) But no leakage yet!

@Nesski if it helps I'm only feeling kicks on my lower half and mostly on my right hand side... But I do have a front placed placenta

Yeah I’m only on my right hand side too. Bump looks central but only ever feel baby on my right for some reason

@Sitchervice not sure where my placenta is placed actually, I didn't ask!

3 cup sizes for me as well, new bras and lots of funny comments from the men in my life (husband, brothers, close (gay) friends)... Apparently they will get bigger when BF actually starts

@AIRRRR that is music to my ears!! I’ll definitely be giving them a try then! Thank you 😍
I’m glad your stuffiness has gone, I’m also getting that annoying feeling of needing to clear something that never shifts so have no advice but hoping it clears up for you soon!

I’ve given up on bras, not buying anymore more until the end of pregnancy. I’ve got some super comfort sports bars in a few sizes up and they’re doing for now.

Is anyone else getting clear awake and sleep times from baby? Its quite sweet, when I first wake up they only start wiggling once I roll over a few times or start taking to DH. Baby has a good wiggle and then settles down for a few hours and then had another boogie a few hours later.

@SitcherviceI have an anterior placenta too and feel it low down and sometimes both sides, sometimes one :) but always low down near knicker line x

So jealous of your boobs 🤣🤣🤣🙈 I've always had small boobs so was looking forward to seeing what it's like to have big boobs for once but I've only gone up a cup size 🙈😭😭

@PinkPlantCase yes just after eating dinner till I fall asleep actually, it's like he is having a boogie knowing that I'm winding down!

@TerryRose you're not missing out, they are really uncomfortable and add to my feeling of blobbiness!

Ugh trying to find decent bras in lockdown!? Nightmare!! I'm usually a GG, and i started overflowing and the underwire was hurting my ribs so I've gone for nursing bras now. I went up a back and a cup size and now I'm super comfy but I do feel weird not having underwires.

I've started using washable nipple pads on a night, leaking doesn't seem to happen during the day- maybe because I'm not laid squashing them.

Guys I have found chin hair!! ACTUAL DARK INCH LONG CHIN HAIR! Please tell me this is normal

@Sitchervice not had this myself but hair growth all over is a common thing!!! Pull that bad boy out!! I dreamt I grew a furry snail trail, husband loved it!! (In the dream!)

@Waitingforbabypage I don’t wear bra’s anyway, any time of my life, I hate them 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 but what I have found are these little crop top type things, (like what children wear) but with no tight elastic, my boobs are pretty much the same size too, only the nipples have slightly darkened, which apparently is so baby can find them easier, how interesting!

I would love to not wear a bra! I didn't know that was the reason for the darkened nips! At the moment they're just a source of entertainment for my other half- not like that! He just thinks all the bodily changes are fascinating. Little weirdo!

Oh my goodness! Pull that hair out!! I haven't noticed anything like that (yet) but I do get annoying hairs that grow out a couple of my moles 🤢

My very sexy pregnancy acne is finally on the way out. Phew!! It's no longer sore, there are very few blemishes left and my scarring is quite minimal. Phew.

@Nesski nooo I'm going to have to start shaving my face!!!

@Waitingforbabypage I probably should wear one haha. I’m a size 38 C , but just cnt stand the buggers!

@Sitchervice

Guys I have found chin hair!! ACTUAL DARK INCH LONG CHIN HAIR! Please tell me this is normal

This made me lol. Not there with the chin hair but I get a really hairy baby bump! Last pregnancy I tried to keep it away but by 40 weeks it was like a bear's 😂

He such a fright today I somehow tripped and fell onto my hands and knees on our tiled kitchen , I was so worried that I had hit bump, my head landed in my dogs bed so that's what saved me hitting my head . I rang the hospital and they said I could go in or just monitor at home so decided just to monitor the next hour or so , tummy isn't sore or tender at all and can feel movement but got such a fright especially as it happened in my own kitchen .

@Sitchervice I had a few weeks where I was finding chin hairs every day ?! Apparently very normal . My belly is definitely fluffy too it's like blond hairs that aren't noticeable to anyone but I can see and feel them it's so odd 🤣🤣🙈 guessing it's all the hormones
