PREGNANCY IS NOT ALL FUN 3

Another serie of lovely "side effects" can be:
-Reflux and gastric acidity (had and keep having, mild and rare), mostly appearing during the third trimester due to the dislocation of the stomach...due to the enlarging of the uterus and thus the belly, that might seem to become huge and heavy and also
-Stretch and itch... (had and keep having)
These last two symptoms can be trated with daily applications of a moisturizing and/or anti-stretch marks cream/oil (if you are lucky you'll get no marks... so far i've noticed none...Finger crossed)
-You might experience abundant salivation as well altough is not very common.
Much more common are:
-Back ache (had and keep having)
-Constipation (had and rarely still have on occasions)
-Vaginal discharge (sometimes so abundant to make you worry the baby might be on its way already) caused by estrogen hormones (did not have this problem so far luckily)
-Ipotension and Faintness (never had so far), usually appear at the beginning of the pregnancy


To be continued....
