Sorry to add more to this topic for those of you not into poo discussions :) but I agree - there definitely is an excremental (if that's a word) change.
The only way I can describe the poo change is that I find it's not my own smell - like someone elses. It's really weird - it smells so terrible that I find it embarrassing and it grosses me out. :redface:
It really adds to the feeling of having some 'unseen force' taking over your body which is how I would describe the first trimester. he he
So glad someone else got the funnypuuz! Thank god I can't smell mine! That would be really wierd. Although I'm a pretty good farter - I wonder if THEY will change smell. They seem pretty regular now but . . . wierd!
Anyway, the new one for today is itchy nipples. Oh yay:rolleyes:
Hi all,
Just read the poo thing and its sooooo true. It stinks!! And Uncle the itchy nipple thing is true too. This is my first pg and i cannot believe how much i eat, drink, wee and poo. I know its gross but my DH cant believe my body is so gassy. :cryinglaugh:
My boobs have grown but no major thing they are just very sore at night and when i am not wearing a bra.
Is anyone getting the 2-3 hour nausea. I seem to get it in the afternoon just after lunch. It is the strangest feeling and there is no controlling it. Does anyone else feel this way? I sound like i should be :boohoo: .
Anyway, lets keep in touch and let each other know of whats in store for us all.
Cheers - Gina
Well, I got over the sickness and now I've got terrible wrist /hand pains - especially at night. I'm only 13 weeks but I think it's probably carpal tunnel syndrome. I have really skinny wrists (so skinny I have to buy kids watches) so I think the swelling might have reached it's limit already. Oooch.
Anyone else had any luck with acupuncture as relief for this? I work in IT so this is really not good news. :cry:
Anyway, I shouldn't really be typing this as it's making it worse ...

Yeah, I have bad tennis elbo but my last job where I used them a lot, finished a week ago and my left elbow, just the left, is still going crazy. I find it hard to sleep at night, and the sensetive boobs are so not helping, think I may need to go get a massage for my arms and neck
Noobie - maybe get a carper tunnel splint from the chemists as I found that helped me heaps when I was pg with DS. My carper tunnel would wake me up during the night & felt like my hand was going to fall off & this made it much better. The splints can be pricey ($50) but if you are in a private health fund they may give you a rebate. As soon as DS was born mine went away!!
I have been nauseated almost 24 hours except one or two hours in the late AM and 1-2 hrs in the evening. I vomit, I dry heave I'm dizzy. I haven't eatten food in days. I've been able to drink V-8 juice, apple juice, PEPPERMINT TEA !, and pickled vegetables. I have found the peppermint tea and sucking on lemons to help. I can't even look at a cracker (salada) or gingerale and that was my breakfast & lunch & supper. I've tried alot of procedures in fertility to get where I am so I'm so happy to be pregnant. It is just hard to feel so weak and even nauseated by turning in bed. I sleep a ton ! At least I'm not nauseated when I sleep only when I wake up. Now I haven't taken my prenatal vitamins in a couple of days but I have taken a multi-vitamin and folic acid. Today I have a fish oil taste in my mouth !!!! Too much !! I have been taking Blackmores prenatals which have fish oil but it has been days since I was able to down such a large pill. I'm so exhausted. I'm about 6 wks 7 days and my hcg numbers were high so multiples is a possibility. I have barely left the house, and taking a shower is a big deal for me. I just want to enjoy my pregnancy and I worry about stories of women who have this for the full pregnancy !! Women are just so strong. But right now i feel so weak.
Can i ask what about smelly pee, sorry for the TMI

I had to do it too Mummy_Wannabe!!! :lol:
I'm just wondering if the pins & needles are limited to the BB's???
For about a week now I have been getting pins & needles around my lower back & right side of my tummy. Occaisionally it moves up the right side of my body to my right breast & surrounds. It seems to be happening more often now.
Is this a sign if PG or AF?????
Hi Meg, my name is kylie, i just joined and have been reading your posts, i am about 4 and a half weeks pregnant, i think?? and this is my first, it took almost a year and clomiphene tabs to concieve and i am thrilled but sooooo worried about mis carrying, i too had period pain type symptoms, back ache and cramping and was very worried but have also been told its very normal, so i think we will be fine, i am just desperate now to get to 12 weeks so i can relax and know my bub wil be fine. i can add the snoring and bright yellow wee already hehehe.

Hi LouLou,:
I had 2 laproscopic surgeries, one 5 yrs ago and the other 2 yrs ago and suspected I was pregnant due to the "pulling" like feeling from inside my belly button. Doctor assured me it was ok though.
I am 6 weeks preganat, when is the morning sickness most likely to hit? I didnt even know I was pregnant untill 11 weeks last pregnancy.:cryinglaugh:
I am in the TWW wait period and will be testing if AF doesn't come tomorrow.
I have v sore boobs, but did last month too.
So sensitive to all bodily signs.
