Due Date Club March 2007:how do you all feel?
2007-02-20
Name: hello



Hi everyone

I think we are all in the final 4-5 weeks of pg.Cant imgaine that time has flown by so fast.It feels like it was only yday that my HPT came back +ive and its already 9 months.And its only a start !!!!
Only now I understand when my mother says ,that we have all grown up so fast in front of her eyes and she has lost track of time.Thats soon going to happen to all of us ..
Im feeling huge and have trouble walking and getting up from the couch or the bed.I dare not even sit on the floor.Even putting my pants on has become a task that I need my hubby to help out with.I feel so sleep deprived and wake up in the night every 2 hours .My mom tells me that I need all the sleep I can now,with the baby it' s going to be difficult.It can' t imagine it getting worse than it already is.And waddling around with the extra load around,I feel so funny and in the stores I have to take a break every now and then and sit for a while,not to mention the potty breaks )Feeling tired even after a nap and hungry after a full meal ...ha..*sigh*
Also I' ve been having menstrual like cramping in my lower back around 4-5 times in a day?Are thye BHCs? Ive never had BHCs in my pg so far ,so I dont know what they are.
Tell me how you all feel and let' s share the joys of being preganant : )

Hi,

Looks like most of us feel the same way. I still remember the day I found out that I was pregnant. I just could' nt believe my own eyes, so woke up hubby to double check the result.

I too feel heavy these days. My appetite is greatly reduced and mostly on fluids. Stopped wearing pants and shifted to wrap-around skirts and my brothers t-shirts. Started to note some stretch marks inspite of diligently using Palmers coccoa butter everyday from my 3rd month. Unable to sleep on my sides for not more than 15 min and I keep twisting and turning most of the night and not to forget all the intermittent loo breaks.

I have a question.Do you girls get up everytime you turn from one side to another? Though my doctor says it not necessary my granny and mom insist that I turn that way.but then imagine if I have to do it all the time till I deliver? So I slowly turn from my right to left and vice versa. Do throw your thoughts on this.

Happy waiting.
AVB

good to hear from you.Stretch marks - the badges of honor of pregnancy.I bought this tummy honey online and paid a lot of money on that and had been using it and lo...,can you beleive the stretch marks I have.I hate to look at my tummy and Im sure there are marks where I cant see as well.Im already telling my husband that Im going to get a plastic surgery done once done having kids.
About turning,my mom and MIL say the same thing.To get up everytime.But its just not possible.I simply turn from one side to another.But b/c of the weight its done slowly and not in one swift movement.So do not worry.Just continue doing what you do.

Hi Hello,

Exactly,me and husband were discussing about the same thing and he was saying how fast time passes by.I went to India in August for one month vacation and found that I was pregnant.It was unplanned,so kind of surprising for us.Unfortunately my hubby was not there with me,but had the joy in the phone.My visit to India was surprise to my mom, and she was saying even ur baby is giving u surprise now....hahaha
It is dificult to wear pants for me to,but able to manage it by my own till now, even I might be in ur shoe next week :)
I am not able to eat now.I am feeling hungry but I fell I am having food in my throat and not able eat a full meal,yday I ate a banana and an orange and went to bed,at mid night I started feeling hungry and sleepy and didnt want to wake up,so woke up early in the morning and ate cereals :(
Coming to the menstual cramong in the lower back, I twice in last two weeks followed by loose stool.It would last for two hours or so.


Take Care
Bye
