I know! I think I might be getting somewhere with these daily contractions. Even the small ones are really hurting! Not waking up DH just yet though. Will time them for a while first I think.
That's always good news! When your labour properly starts your cervix will be ready so there'll be less work to do! When I had DD she hadn't even decended properly and my cervix was rock solid shut lol. Do you think you may actually be in labour or are they BH?
Sadly, I cant tell pre-labour from established labour anymore. I just hoping that if nothing else I can get this lot to bite. I thought I lost a bit of plug before but wasnt 100% sure on that either because I had a lot of CM all the way through... then prelabour started and it stopped.. My cervix has been soft and 50% effaced (doc wasnt sure on that and not so sure on dilation because she couldnt reach it properly... welcome to the club honey - I am making jackets) for a little while now, which is probably why the CM stopped. Not really sure again.
Sheesh, you'd think I'd be an old hand at this by now!
I am loving reading your stories, I cannot remember when i showed with my first child, as it was almost 10 years ago but I seem to recall around the 14 -16 weeks. I am a larger person so it sucks for me because I already have the extra padding and it is going to take me a long time to show, I wasn't so big 10 years ago with my first, heck I was 19 !!! But now i would give anything to be slim to watch my baby belly poke out!! It will come soon enough though and besides, I know that I am pregnant, bub reminds me every time I even contemplate eating !! Yay for ALL DAY SICKNES!!! Not!!
I had to buy stretchy jeans - I live in my jeans in winter. My old ones are too tight and way too uncomfortable around my pelvis and I'm nearly 7 weeks.
I am 9 weeks today and for the past 2 weeks I have a tummy on me. I don't think it's baby though, because it looks like bloat!
I can't wait to start showing properly!!
With my first I didn't really show until about 5 months which was also when I started to 'waddle'
This time...the 'bean' decided to 'pop' out two days before my wedding sooo after wearing my back laced corset on my wedding day for 2 hours I had to change my clothes half way through the reception as I couldn't eat the delicious food! Nobody minded though, but yeah 13 weeks and 'ba-boing' there I was with my 'outtie' belly button explaining to the wedding guest two days before the wedding that I was only 13 weeks not 5 months as that is what I looked like.
Luckily I had gone and bought as many gypsy style summer maxi dresses before the wedding so for my whole week on the Whitsundays I wore the most comfortable clothes ever. However it's back to work tomorrow...and I have no loose pants..not looking forward to an 9 hour shift in them..looks like its a job for 'elastic band in the button hole' until I get to the shops!
