My belly isn't centred?!? Anyone else had this? 2nd trimester..

Kuraiza! You sound so much like me!! I have had hip pain for a few weeks now, not to mention, sometimes VERY painful sciatic nerve pain in lower right side! I only ever feel kicks more from the right side too so bubs is definitely to the right side!! and on my nerve most of the time..... it hurts sometimes!
I've been seeing a physio too only when the pain gets bad.... i'm going to see her again in couple of weeks as my hip pain is coming back when i sleep at night it causes me discomfort.

You don't have long to go..... hopefully the pain eases up for you soon

AJC - hows your belly? hehe mine is still to the left hehe

brings new meaning to the greeting "hows it hangin'?"

You have all that pain at just 19 weeks? Ooooh no ... no no no. I would suggest investing in a hip brace to wear during the day. Get those hips straight and be vigilante with keeping your pelvis aligned whenever you sit, stand, lie etc.

And I thought my pain came on early. My heart goes fully out to you.

PS. We also are keeping our baby's gender a secret from everyone, but it has been impossible and we're sure we've slipped a few times, in fact just yesterday when we hit 35 weeks my husband completely slipped up when talking to his dad, and then tried to cover it up just making it worse. We decided next baby we're not going to do this secret thing, it has been way too difficult.

rofl Ren, I just thought of you when I looked down and saw my wonky belly. It seems to be sticking out more on the right side...hmm...

Sara! is it harder on the right side too? like it feels harder to touch? yeah well thats where my baby loves to stay! I think our baby has been on my right side for a while now but i did read in a pregnancy book somewhere that babies do tend to prefer the right side of the body over the left side but i can't remember where i read it or why babies would prefer right side of the body..... strange huh?!

My belly moved to the left the other day but now its back to where its been for a while !


Kuraiza - we have been really good and not slipped up! (touch wood!) yet at times I admit it has been hard keeping this big secret from people.... yet we're glad we have. Next time if we do find out the gender, we are going to tell people that we "don't know" what the gender is!! That will eliminate MIL from pestering me.....

Yeah, feels harder on the right too. They said at the scan that the placenta is anterior and up the top on the right too tho so I wonder what it is, placenta or baby, or both, lol. But sometimes it goes hard on one side or the other like it's sticking it's little bum out there or something, so cute. lol. Today it was going crazy and I could see it kicking my belly all over the place. So much fun!! lol, remember when we were TTC and then waiting so long for our scans and to feel it move, jeez, I still can't believe we're here already!!

I know Sara! I hear you! it's the best thing in the world when you feel your baby kicking and moving around! Last night DH felt bub moving heaps with both hands on my belly he got kicks left right and centre!!! Bub was super active! Sometimes it does feel like the babys butt is pushing out hey!! its adorable..

Even just before at the checkout at woolies i was standing and all of a sudden i got kicked down real low and i'm like "cooool" hehe i dont often feel the baby when i'm walkng around usually only when i'm resting but now that bub is bigger i get it more often when walking around..
