Roll-call!! Due June/July/August 2013

Does anyone else have a rash? I started getting red, raised bumps all over my chest, stomach, and back on Friday and they are still there. I saw my OB yesterday because I was worried something was going on that could be hurting the baby, but she wasn't sure what causing it. She thinks I may be reacting to a food I ate or medication I took last week when I was sick (I only took Tylenol and Sudefed). I had bloodwork done to rule out a few other possibilities. It isn't painful or itchy, so it's not really a problem, but it freaks me out a bit. Any ideas?

LOL oh ladies. Sometimes I am so glad we don't get a scan at 12-14 weeks here hehehe! I'd be stressing over the nubcessing thing too, posting photos all over the internet for guesses hahaha! I'd probably drive myself NUTS

Ah sorry to hear about your rash - I hope it gets better soon!!

sorry do you feel a big difference between carrying twins and singles? is every prego feeling doubled??

Yes, this has already been the most difficult pregnancy I've had. Well, I should say that I've been blessed with not really any complications so far (besides one day of very light spotting, and the ruptured cyst on my ovary), and the babies have been growing great and seem to be healthy. BUT, the symptoms this time around are horrible. The morning sickness started right away, even before my BFP, and has been really bad. The fatigue has been much more intense than with my other pregnancies, too. But the worst part has been the headaches. I've been getting them every.single.day. for weeks now - they start in the late afternoon/early evening and go until bedtime. It's hard to get to sleep. Some have been splitting headaches, some have been throbbing headaches, and some have been full blown migraines. That fact that I get them EVERY day is making me crazy. I feel like I just can't function. I really hope some of these symptoms let up soon. I know that pregnancy is such a short period of time in the grand scheme of things, and I'm so glad the babies are doing well (which makes it all worth it), but at least *a little bit* of relief would be nice.

Sorry for the big, whiny, complaining post.

Oh wow, this thread moves so fast! I just read through 3 pages of posts, and I was just here yesterday too!

cvd - I'm sorry you had to cancel your early scan, but at least the one you'll get at 18 weeks will be very accurate! Also, I noticed that you're now in the second trimester! Yay! How are you feeling? I think you're the first one in the group to reach the second tri, right?

P4P - I wouldn't put ANY stock into the string test. It's just an OWT with no actual truth to it at all. I'm sorry your friend/coworker is being annoying about it, though.

jennaesue - I'm sorry, I have no idea what that rash could be. It sounds annoying though! Hopefully it will disappear soon. Pregnancy skin can be so easily irritated and so sensitive. Did you recently switch laundry detergents? That could be a cause of rashy skin.

As for heartburn - I've had it pretty bad from the middle to end of my pregnancies, and I've always had bald babies. Just another OWT, I think!

I think there is still a couple people due before me in this group! But I am the first to post about it haha!! I am feeling pretty good, still tired! Nausea has seemed to go away finally lol crossing my fingers! And my clothes are definitely not fitting as well, I've got a good sized bump for how far along I am! My body definitely had no problem springing back to pregnant mode.
I'm sorry to hear your not feeling so well Hopefully it eases up soon as the second trimester is literally around the corner for you! I have been getting headaches here and there too, but definitely not as bad/frequently as you! Those babies are just taking everything so they are nice and healthy! And I agree, aside from all the sickness we are all so lucky to have no complications! I hope it stays that way!! Feel better soon!

sorry mama Are you keeping up on water intake? I know that is a big one for headaches. Maybe a lil caffiene would do you good? What does doc say you can do for them? I know it can be difficult to function especially with a migraine Glad babes are doing great though
