Less Common Pregnancy Symptoms/Side Effects

Ja

When I first joined this app I saw a ton of ‘is this normal?’ posts and it occurred to me that we all come into this journey with different info and expectations. At almost 37 weeks there are things I now know are normal/attributable to pregnancy that I was totally unprepared for.

So I’m curious, what surprised you (physically) about pregnancy?

I’ll start:

-snoring like a contented wildebeest

-skin tags (hormones are weird)

-shortened eyelashes while every other hair on my body is growing like crazy

-3rd trimester carpal tunnel

-gaining basically 1lb a week since I got pregnant regardless of what I ate/drank or how much exercise I got.

Go!
