That sucks Gabby! What a stinker. That was my daughter last pregnancy. Her little feet were constantly out my sides. This baby has been pretty quite and cooperative. She hangs out pretty low and doesn't give me too many hard b__ws. Maybe this will be my calm one...HA!

Anyone else feel liek they are not as big as they should be for over 7 months preggers?? Some days I feel really big and others I feel like I havent changed in the last two months. I had been worrying that she wasn't getting big and wan'ty growing right, but after seeing her on the 4D ultrasound the other day, she definatly is. She has big chubby cheeks and fat arms, so i know she is gaining weight, but I just dont feel liek I am getting any bigger. Weird. I have become obsesses at looking at her 4d pics! I can't believe that that is what is really in there. A little person!! I think sometimes I am stillin a sort of deninal about really being pregnant and that it is really happening to us and that we are going to haev a daughter here in less than 12 weeks!! Any one else??

Patty, you already know my answer to that question! I feel so incredibly small (of course only in the belly area) this pregnancy. But I was rea__sured after she was actually measuring slightly bigger the last u/s, so now I am just trying to be grateful I am not uncomfortably huge in my stomach. But I don't get it. You would think with my fourth, I would be huge. This is my smallest belly yet. Of course, I was looking at a pic my mom had of me and my sister our last pregnancies and I was carrying so low, that I looked kinda smaller (but not as small) with Josephine. I'm sure we'll go through a 'growth spurt' in the next few weeks.

aww thanks Ekay! I have to agree - she look sliek a pretty little girl! I am juts hoping she is not nearly as stubborn as either of us or we will be in trouble!! :) Yes I knwo you feel small too. When I had my u/s they told me that she was tucked so low into my pelivis that they really had to dig into my pelvis bone to get an image of her face. They said that she is tucked right into the bottom of my stomach and maybe you are right on. Myabe because we are carrying so low that it make sthe belly appear smaller. But yes, I am thankful that I am not super uncomfy at all so far. Maybe we will go through a spurt. We were at an annual friends bbq on the weekend and it was noted that I look more like I have a big beer gut than a pregnant belly. I really was not sure what to say!! It is kinda true!! :)

hello girlies! ok, i was just thinking this morning that i feel smaller in the belly than i have my other 2. and everyone keeps telling me i am small for almost 30 wks! but the doc measured me as usual and said she is right on track. so maybe she is just low. i know i weigh more with this one :( not good. but she is plenty big she kicks so hard, but what hurts the most is her ROLLS she can take some little bony knees and elbows and really hurt me! lol, my husband laughs when he sees her move like that, i told him its not funny! shes a mean stinker! lol. but i love it and i always miss it when they come out.

Hello Girls....Erin- I know I shouldn't worry but i go through those days when I do. Like today. Today is a worry about a 7-9lbs baby coming out of my vajayjay.... And how in the h3ll I am ever going to do it... I hate pain. I am such a sissy....lol. But congrats on the decade together.... thats awesome... I sometimes wonder if people think I am just fat and not preggo bcuz i dont think I look big enough...lol. Patti- I look at Mason's 3D pic all the time too. I love being able to look at him. Has anyone been eating lunch meat? I was told it wasn't good for you if your preggo. And i want a ham sandwish w/ chesee, tomato and mustard..... ummmmm yummmmy

Oh yeah momma - I have been eating lunch meat for most of the pregnancy now. I love it and my dr said to really not worry about it. There are so many other things out there that run the chance of making you sick long before lunch meat will. Enjoy!!

I eat lunchmeat ALL the time. not saying it's right, but I do it. guys, I'm sooooooooo uncomfy. my stomach is just so sore and I have cramps in my side and she keeps digging her body parts into my ribs. it's been the past two days and it's really getting me down b/c it's so uncomfortable. I can't imagine the next 10 weeks like this. is this normal???

Okay well good... I have my sandwich and I can't wait to eat it... So i have a ?. I am telling people I am 7 months preggo. Since that is what it says at the 28th week point where I am at. BUT if i was truely 7 months pregnant would that not just be 8 more weeks till his due date instead of the 12 weeks till he is due...I hope this makes sense to you guys....lol

I knwo what you are saying Momma. I too tell people that and then they count and are confused because I am not due until Aug. I think it is a general a__sumption that pregnancy is only nine months long, when in fact it is actually 40 weeks which if you break it down to 4 weeks in a month it is actually 10 months long. Does that make sense?? I know it is hard when people look at you like you are crazy and don't even know what you are talking about!! :) I just kinda shrug it off.

gabby - I am sorry to hear that you are so uncomfy. I am really not sure what it is like, as she has not given me any real troubles like that. She seems to stay really low in my tummy and not jab too much....yet. Does it help if you try to ma__sage your tummy?? I was given a book on prenantal baby ma__sage and in it they say that if you are having a lot of discomfort, to try to ma__sage your stomach. Says most babies really like the stimulation from the outside and it may help to move them into a better position. I guess anything is worth a try!Hope she gives you some relief soon. What is sore in your belly. Just the muscles at the bottom? Maybe a maternity belt might help a bit. I have been told they provide really good support.

gabbi, its totally normal, put it this way, my lil boy kept a foot in my left rib for the last 2 months, and i have pains there all the time now, my doc thinks its scar tissue from where he was digging in there all the time! i used to push him down andhe'd go right back! i eat lunch meat all the time, ate a turkey sandwich yesterday! congrats on ur anniversary erin! i forgot to tell you that earlier, my 2 yr anniversary is june 3. won't get nothing tho, we're too broke :( but oh well. mommam, 7-9 lbs coming outta there is not really that bad if u have drugs, now if ur going drug free i can't say, never done it that way, but to be honest everyone said i would be soooo sore, and i was up walking around a few hours later, not sore, and i even had st_tches! both times. but i guess it all depends on the woman and her anatomy.

Alicia, I think you totally look pregnant honey. And I also wonder what to tell people when it comes to months. If it's a woman, I'll go ahead and say 28 weeks, but if it's a man, I just say months. They don't know the difference anyways. Oh yeah, is anyone gonna try to epi-free with me? I prepare myself mentally just about everynight. I know I can do it (obviously), the key is confidence. I have to be confident. Anyways, my sister said something about prenatal ma__sage, but I'd be afraid to compress the cord moving her around, or touching her so much she'd flip. So I just rest my hand on her and sometimes lightly rub whatever body part might be protruding.
