I could cry about everything and anything right now. I feel STUFFED. My maternity pants are tight. I have to turn over every hour when I sleep and it hurts. I'm tired and cranky. I have pelvic pain. I have to work all day.
Also: My Uggs are now the only shoes that fit on my feet. Braxton Hicks are starting to hit me like crazy - sometimes they take my breath away. I'm overloaded at work before leave and haven't gotten home until 9pm most nights this week, and want to go directly to bed.
ETA: I can no longer wear pajama pants to bed, even maternity ones because they press on my bladder all night and it's painful. When I'm sitting on the couch at night watching TV, this kid always jams his feet up into my ribs under my right breast and it HURTS. I officially waddle.

-So much congestion I feel like I can't breathe sometimes -First pregnancy back ache this morning - does not help being at work -Still just feeling really fat instead of cute pregnant
-I'm a nurse and I look fat as fuck in all my scrubs and my fitted ones from pregnancy don't fit so I'm wearing big baggy horrible ones and I hate then but don't know what else to do. -My husband is working even more than usual and I barely see him. -I guess those aren't really discomforts, just complaining
- I feel like my pelvis has been beaten with a baseball bat - Someone has clearly been sticking a hot poker between my ribs - Everything gives me gas - My demi panel maternity pants cut into my belly - My bras and underwear don't fit anymore - I've been waking up at night because I'm choking on my own acid reflux. Two nights ago I coughed so bad I peed myself. (karma! someone wrote on here a few days ago that the same thing happened to them, and I thought "thank God I'm not to that point yet!")
- I can't sleep for anything, it makes me feel like crap all day if I don't take a unisom - The heartburn and congestion is so bad it makes me cough and puke almost daily now -Everything is hard to do, I cleaning the bathtub this am and thought I was going to pass out. - I have so much to do, but no motivation to do much more than lie in bed. My job is pretty much non existant at this point.
I'll add one I don't see - skin tags and moles. Not a discomfort but gross. Ditto back pain, swelling, leg pains. The contraction this morning made me scared of labor. It reminded me of the pain when I have dislocated my shoulder.

Oh good one with the skin tags. I found one on my vagina the other day! My doctor said it might go away after pregnancy or I can get it removed. I'm sure that won't be painful at all.
-Peeing often and having to wear a panty liner because of occasional leakage and having to get up in the middle of the night to pee and then attempting to get comfortable and fall back asleep
-Pain under my bra line (like my bra is too tight or out of place)
-Trying to increase my water intake because I drink no where near enough liquids (never have drank much so this is a huge difference for me)
-My belly gets harder and more uncomfortable as day wears on
-Nightly upset stomach, no more gagging at least, but still not feeling well
-Just generally feeling like I look fat, not cute and pregnant.

My poor pelvis...I leaned over in my car to retrieve something on the floor and the pain was so sharp that I made a yelp I've never heard myself make before. I guess that's what I can expect during delivery!

I'm sitting here trying to think of something that ISN'T uncomfortable, and I can't come up with anything! -My feet hurt so very much -Bending over to pick something up from the floor is impossible. I've tried getting down on all fours to deal with anything on the floor, but then I can't get back up! -The skin on my abdomen is so stretched that it alternates between numb and burning -My legs constantly feel like I just ran a marathon -My bladder hurts after I pee (like I held it for hours and hours, even though I peed 30 minutes earlier!) -Heartburn -Because of the heartburn and shortness of breath, I have to prop myself up on a 45 degree angle to lay down... that, in turn, is killing my upper back -Leg cramps -My pubic bone is so sore and achy -I'm just generally achy and uncomfortable all over. I am so not cut out for pregnancy.

- Almost constant backaches - EVERYTHING gives me heartburn and/or acid reflux - It hurts to wear a bra- the bands all seem to cut into the top of my bump - I need to build momentum to get up from the bed or couch, and to get my pants on - It's getting really hard to put on my socks and tie my shoes - I have no motivation to do ANYTHING but sit on the couch, despite the fact that our apartment is a mess and we really need to get a space for the baby set up - I also have very little motivation at work these days
My tailbone hurts, my back aches, I was woken up by a leg cramp this morning, my ribs hurt, my ab muscles feel like I've had a killer workout pretty much all the time now. I don't see how it is possible for my belly to stretch more because everything feels so tight. I have 3.5 months to go...
-wicked rib cage pain -back pain -horrible gas -starting to get hard to bend over -my stomach is so tight, I don't know how I am going to make it another 13 weeks -just starting to get heartburn
