mommies to be DECEMBER 2010

Hi Ladies,

Well I am back at work today, felt terrible yesterday, hardly slept on Wednesday evening, I had this lower back pain which went right down into my butt, I could not sleep on a side for more than 10 min before the pain start intensifying, so you can just imagine how I felt yesterday morning.. I have also been experiencing some aches mostly in my joints I have come to the conclusion that it's a calcium defeciency, my gynae suggested I only use my vits as they include the calcium but I remember with previous pregnancies I used it them both simultaneously and need to do the same, maybe the calcium demand is high and baby is taking from me hence me feeling this way....I got myself some tabs now as clicks so hoping to feel better...


I will also start measuring, will start this weekend...

Hope the rest of you are feeling better than I am ..

Morning Ladies

Last time I checked I was 38 inches(not sure though).
I will measure tonight and see.

I've grown too big. Washing dishes and Ironing leaves my back feeling so sore. That bending over at the shoulders

I know what you mean Googlebug. People aren't seeing that I'm pregnant and they don't believe that I'm 5 months.

Ladies, little task for us all. Thought it would be fun if we measure our tums. Round the back to your belly button. We can see who is "showing" the most. I'm also going to keep record of it to see how much I grow.

So, I'm up first:

33 Inches / 84cm

Hello ladies

Champers, I see your bump has grown. Mine has also come out more in the past week or two but still just looks like a fat roll under winter clothes (some people at work who are only finding out now tht I am pregnant are shocked when I say that I am five months along).

Mutha2b, congrats on the LG!!!!

GML, hubby has tried leaving his hand on my tummy for a while- nothing. Maybe there's too much fat in the way.

Miksmummy, I started reading that hypnobirthing book yesterday. I'm only on chapter 3 but so far its quite interesting, and so far I couldn't find even the tiniest hint of anything 'unnatural' (and I was reading with a critical eye). It does sound like the husband gets as involved in all of it as the woman giving birth, so you do need another active participant (I am not sure if I have one).

Morning sickness was back this morning, I wonder if it will ever end.

Hi Ladies

I'm too hectic at work these days.

Nice looking bump Champers. Growing big hey. I'm gonna send you a picture tonight.

mutha2b. I wish I could gain weight.

Champers, boepie is getting bigger!!! But I must say, mine has suddenly just 'come out'. It is about 23cm now and i gained 4kg. My gyn is not impressed with weight gain (we had an agreement that i should only gain 1kg a month)

Tricky to take the pic alone... But here is me at 21 weeks... I had to crop it a lot because there was too much boob in the photo!
