- Make legels--and hourly bathroom breaks--your new BFFs. (And psst: pantiliners!)
3. You've Got (Lots of) Discharge: Blame rising estrogen levels for those excess secretions.
But unless it itches, burns, or has a strong odor, don't worry.
- Wear cotton undies and a pantiliner.

- Eating smaller, more frequent meals and avoiding fatty foods can help.

- But your go-to zit cream may not be pregnancy-safe, so talk to your doc about alternatives.
6. You're Having Crazy Dreams: New sleep patterns can cause strange (x-rated!) dreams.
- But unless they stress you out or disrupt your sleep don't worry!
7. You've Developed Hemorrhoids: Those painful bumps come from baby's weight pressing on the veins in your groin.
- Keep constipation in check: Eating fiber-rich foods and drink lots of water.
8. You're Super-Horny (or Not): Your libido might skyrocket (increased blood flow!) or bottom out (exhaustion!).
