Prego complaints go here :(

Just changing out of my work clothes and saw that a have stretch marks on my bum...they weren't there 2 days ago. They're not bad, only little and light, but I fear they'll get worse. I never got stretch marks with Emma J, I don't like this :(

Re: Prego complaints go here :(

  • I'm still throwing up.  A lot.  Sad

  • Oh yay I really need this thread!

    I feel like I am 80 years old. My body hurts. I have no idea how I am going to get through a 7 hour car ride Friday and Monday.

  • I had my check up yesterday.  I had actually lost weight, and passed my early 3 hr. glucose test, but my doctor wants me to go see a nutrionist.  Sure, i don't spend enough time away from work with the other appointments, let me put in another one that doesn't make sense to me right now.

  • Moleson, WTF?  What's her damage?

  • I really don't get it.  I mean, I've been trying to be good, but I'm pregnant, so I get cravings.  BUT, I haven't been nearly has hungry as I used to be and I'm eating half as much due to that.  I don't know what more she wants!  The food I am eating isn't crap, I mean it's not like i'm only eating candy and chips or something.  UGH!!!  It's annoying.

    I know I'm overweight, but at this point, it makes me feel like a failure and in my eyes, I don't see that I'm doing anything wrong.

  • Ugh, I'd be so annoyed, Moleson.  I mean, it's one thing if she's worried because you're not gaining, but whatever. 

    I got frustrated yesterday trying to explain my theory on weight gain.  We (BMB ladies) were discussing weight, and there's always someone who is annoyed by those who haven't gained as much at whatever point.  But my point is that I'm 4'11".  Me gaining 8-9 *is* normal to big, because that's a lot on my frame.  It feels like they're saying that 30 lbs is 30 lbs to everyone.  Does that make any sense?  I guess everyone's kid weighs about the same, and we gain the same in extra blood pumping and all, but sheesh. 

    Of course, my mom is only a little taller than I am and gained a ton of weight, like 50 lbs., so maybe they're right!

  • Of course, I make this post and what happens? I started cramping and getting back pain last night at about 11, and by 2:30 it was so bad I called the doctor (for the second time, at first they wanted to see if it would stop) they told me to come into the hospital. We called FIL and he came over to stay with Emma J (she was still sleeping of course). So at 3am DH and I are silently freaking out as they start strapping on monitors and such. Luckily it had already slowed down and turned into just severe back pain pretty quickly. They watched me and baby for a while and then gave me high dose tylenol...once was feeling okay the said we could go home. Looks like I had strained my back and abdominal muscles with all the activity during our recent move and as long as I take it easy I'll be okay. It was really scary though, as we were walking out at 7am we saw our name on the board and next to it "preterm labor!?"

    I still haven't slept and I think I'm going a bit cuckoo. DH and I are just really happy everything is okay (and Edy reassured us by kicking through the whole thing!)

  • I want to post  here  :-(

     Aspersia - I'm glad everything turned out in the end.
