Disgusting things during pregnancy...

Right now my chief one is drooling. I get so worn out that when I nap or sleep, I drool rivers. lol... I have a certain odor this time around. Not sure what it is from, prolly the milk, since I'm allergic to it. I drink it to get baby calcium and its a huge craving I can't control. That makes for some serious mucus problems. And of course having to go to the bathroom RIGHT NOW all the time is quite disturbing... What plagues you?

When I was pregnant I couldn't stand the leaking and then whenever I ate chicken which is my favorite meat I would throw up. I was so glad when I finally had my baby because then I could eat whatever I wanted to.

Oh yeah, I remember that too now. Leaking when I cough, sneeze or even laugh! That is prolly where the odor comes from. Never even thought of that.

Thank you. I know that in 6 weeks or so everything will be a little better. I can sleep on my stomach again, which I dearly miss! As for the rest, I think that will take some more time, but in the end there will be a little life here once again.

Oh Gosh! I am so sorry for you. My wife said she drooled a lot also. Maybe you need to find a different source for the calcium other then milk. If you are allergic to eat then it doesn't do you any good to be drinking it because it possible does not metabolize very good. She also said that the bathroom was her most visited room of the house. Once she walked out of the room it was time to go back in again.

I suppose I could find an alternative source for my calcium, but you have obviously never been pregnant. lol. The craving for milk is unbelieveable. You ever watch Look Who's Talking? Remember when she drank the whole gallon jug of apple juice? That is me with milk.... to get an idea what it is like for me.

Thank Goodness! My Mom siad she craved dill pickles and stwawberry icecream. Not sperately but together. Yuck! My wife siad she craved pizza when she was pregnemt with Becky and she could not get enough of it. Maybe that is why Becky loves pizza so much. I forgot about the drinking of the whole gallon of juice but now that you brought it back to my memory I understand.

I'm 27 weeks...and miserable lol. This is my 3rd and I don't think I've ever been so uncomfortable. Hearburn is constant, sleeping is non existant and has been now for months, peeing all the time is getting old - I could go on and on lol. =) But it could be worse...so I'll take these little 'plagues' as blessings lol.

I feel your pain! I think it does get worse with each child you grow for some reason. Which is why this is my last one. Well one of the many reasons for it. I cannot live through this again. lol

Right now for me it's not knowing what to expect because I'm so close to the end, and being HUGE. It's hard to move around, and I have a hard time sleeping. It's hard because every time I feel something in my abdomen, i wonder if it's time.. I wonder if my water will break, what labor will feel like, I want to clean but have no energy today, my back hurts... geez I could go on an on, lol! I won't though. I just have to wait it out and take it one step at a time.

I would like to say I don't have all those fears, but I do. lol. Even on my second. I never went into labor the first time and had to have a cesarean, but this time around I have been having false labor, so I might have to endure contractions. I know I still have c-section to go through though because of how my pelvis is tilted, I can't have them natural thank goodness!
