Here I Come a Waddling...

[Grumpy72_ga]

Gads, I'm not so thrilled with this part of pregnancy! LOL! But it means its almost over.

I keep looking down at my belly and then doing a side profile in the mirror and it keeps looking lower and lower. With my 3 others (all girls) they rode high, this one is making me waddle at 30 weeks. There was no rhyme or reason to their arrivals either.... (first was on time, 2nd was 3w early, 3rd was 1w2d late.)

I took the girls out this morning to laminate some sewing cards for my 3 yr old (the almost 8 yr old wants to start sewing) and I kept trying to walk normal but it hurt so I resorted to waddling... *sigh*

Anyone else?

I waddle too and have been for a while. I feel huge. And definitely carrying low, although I totally do not believe in any gender predicting old wive's tales as at least one of my boys would have been a girl.

Anyhow . . . several people when asking how I'm feeling today have been told, "Like a beached walrus." It seems like a good analogy to me.

I tell people that if it looks like I pooped in my pants, it's my pelvic floor. I feel like it's down at my knees most of the time. I'm not waddling, but I do have trouble getting down to the floor to tie shoes, change diapers, or pick stuff up. I definitely feel this pregnancy more than the others.

Been waddling for about a month now. It hurts to bad to walk normal. Dh thinks is cute if he only knew lol. He annouces to everyone " shes waddling now!" oh well. This baby is really low already. Were on earth would he drop to? maybe he will just drop on out Peeing has increased as well from all the pressure.

I'm just glad to know I'm not alone. LOL!

Mamabeakley, I'm with you on the gender prediction... all 3 of my girls should have been boys! LOL! based on chinese astrology (done both right and wrong! LOL!) old wives tales and the fact that no two were the same! It will be what it will be! LOL! I just think its funny this one is lower - than the other 3 but that could be because I have no more ab muscles to hold it up! LOL!

GenomicsGirl, I can get to the floor... and back up still... but don't watch the clock, cause it takes a while. LOL!

Kim Allen, I don't know where they drop to either... but I know they do... LOL! with one of the girls my parents arrived one day and I was low... mum looked at me and said.... "My goodness you're even lower... the only step now is out!" LOL!

I am carrying so much lower this pregnancy. I feel like the baby is between my legs sometimes, so I sure do waddle. The good thing is that since the baby is so low, I don't have to worry yet about the baby being right at my chest all day and the heartburn is so much more bearable this time around.

I am so into waddleing It helps to walk duck footed, too.

I'll find myself waddleing, but I can still get myself to walk normal at this point. Feels better that way. With DS and DD2, they got really low really early. I'm hoping this one gives me a bit more time. I hated feeling like DS was going to drop out any second. LOL
I do know that he is head down. And I can feel his head moving back and forth down there. (about the point that the lap belt of the seat belt goes across). He seems to get his hands up by his face and mess around quite often. It feels very weird. LOL

I am waddling less this time around. At this point Abrielle was at a 0 station. Gloriana is only at a -2 station (engaged but not really "there" yet). I am not dialated at all either. With Abrielle I was already 1 CM.

Anyway... Yes I am waddling and DP laughs at me and tells me it's cute. I just give him the finger. LOL

Starting to waddle here too.
And I am standing like a duck all the time- DH recently asked, "Why are you standing like that?"
Duh.

[GhostRose]

Yup, not so much because where the baby is, but because I spend most of my days sitting in a cube on a computer chair. It's killing my hips and I get so stiff that all I can do is waddle.

I haven't been waddling to much here. Today though, I went on a bike ride with my husband and dog and after I got off the bike I looked like I had been riding a horse for twelve hours. I have one of those little schwinn bikes with the banana seats and man they are uncomfortable when you're pregnant.
