List your symptoms

So you know how some people say "Oh my face broke out horribly when I was pregnant with my daughter" or "I was so nauseated with my son?" I thought it would be fun to see who's having a boy or girl and what your symptoms have been.

I'm 15 weeks today and so looking forward to finding out who will join our family. I had a boy and girl the first time around so I have no idea as to what I'm going to have, this pregnancy has been so different.

Here are my symptoms:
nasal congestion and occasional nosebleeds
very strange dry, red patches on my face, not acne but certainly not my normal skin
larger breasts, no tenderness
a little nausea every now and then - I've gotten sick maybe 5 times so far
more weepy than normal

 

I'm also looking forward to finding out. But honestly, my symptoms aren't much different from my other pregnancies. The only thing I can say is that I probably feel better than I did during my other pregnancies, but still have occasional days where I feel a bit nauseous. My face always breaks out a little more than usual until the second trimester, which is what happened this time too. My pregnancy with the twins (boy/girl) wasn't much different except for added discomfort from getting bigger, faster. The kids are all routing for a boy, but I won't fall off the chair if I find out it's another girl. LOL.

 

This pregnancy has been quite different from my others. At the beginning my face broke out pretty bad, but after about 8 weeks it has been so clear. I have had worse morning sickness than with the twins but not as bad as with my DD. This time the sickness seemed to strike mostly in the evenings, but now it seems to be pretty much over. This baby is way lower than my others have been so most movement is felt in the cervix area if that makes sense. The main difference between this pregnancy and the others is that my breasts hurt incredibly bad up until two weeks ago, they never hurt a bit in either of my other pregnancies. I also started feeling uncomfortable and had a hard time sleeping way earlier with this one but that could just be because it's been 7 years. With my girls I craved fresh fruit and sweets with this baby I craved salty stuff, cheese and hamburgers. I just found out we are expecting a little boy.

 

My breasts are slightly larger but the tenderness is a lot better since I started sleeping in a running top (not that I'm a runner, but I wanted something comfy to sleep in that I might actually use later ) I get the odd pimple on my torso or upper thighs, but the facial acne didn't happen this time (previous time was boys, but I had been taking Clomid, so the acne might have been that). My gums reacted differently -- last time I couldn't eat anything dry, lean meat, rice, and could hardly brush my teeth-- this time I HAVE to brush my teeth with almost every meal (better the last couple of weeks) and because of all the brushing, I don't have the gingivitis. And the gender is still a surprise.

 

Hmmm, my syptoms have been pretty similar was with my last pregnancy.
very tender breasts
heartburn
very sensitive to smell
not really nausea, but random vomiting or vomitting as a reaction to a smell
dry heaving if my stomache is ever empty
tiredness
trouble sleeping
gassiness
Then I was carrying two girls, now it's one boy.

 

well right now I feel great and don't have any symptoms...but in the first trimester...

I had some morning sickness and night sickness...my stomach hurt alot!!!

Really gassy

Tired, Tired, Tired.

Tender breast.

I didn't have terrible breakouts...just some moderate acne, but no more than I get with PMS.

Meat aversion...I only wanted fruits and veggies for the most part.

Like someone else mentioned, I've feel this baby moving really low more than anything.

And...my sex drive has been increased with this pregnancy, which is one thing that led me to believe it might be a boy, b/c I had ZERO drive with the twins...but in fact, its another girl.

With the twins, both girls, I had daily morning sickness without fail, but no night sickness. I wasn't very tired. I didn't have gas, and I had no sex drive, but the tender breasts and cravings were the same, so I had no idea what to expect this baby to be.

 

With this pregnancy it's a boy amd the symptoms I've had/having:

Heartburn
Terrible red patches on my face with breakouts
backache
leg cramps sometimes at night
very sensitive to smell
trouble sleeping
wierd cravings: anything lemon!


With the twins I had no symptoms and really didn't feel like I was pregnant until I started feeling movement & packing on the weight in the second trimester.

 

This baby is a suprise!

But I had morning sickness for 10 weeks! (with the twins it was just 3)
I have increased breast size but no tenderness (although I was nursing when I got prego this time)
Lots of lower back pain despite the chiropractor
heartburn AGAIN!
absolultely no acne :woohoo:
definitely moody / weepy/ anxious
way more tired than I was with the twins but I blame that on the fact Im chasing two busy bodies around
I do crave sweets!
My leg hair is growing super slow.....
