My skin is stretching and stretching!!  

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
It hurts! I've noticed a big change in my belly in the last couple days. Lets just say it's "much bigger." But right above my belly button stings! It hurts darnit! I can just feel it stretching out. At this point lotion isn't even really helping and I've also noticed a few more stretch marks in that spot. Can I say...OOUUUUCCCHHH!!!!!! I think I need a couple more shirts too. The only maternity shirts that actually fit me...have gotten a wee bit small in the past couple days. The Belly pops out of the bottom. Baby is DEFINITELY going through a growth spurt! I go see my mw on Tuesday. YAY! It'll be May 2nd and that means only ONE month to go!!! I get tested for GBS @ this app. too.....what fun.

With ya. I can't believe it but I got more stretch marks. Pretty bummed about that. I have very few shirts that cover my belly. I had my last professional event where people may care what I looked like today and I'm so glad. I can just hide out at home or do the few little meetings here and there and not care about what I wear.

Good luck on the GBS!

yeah - mine feels as tight as a drum - literally. It hurts and itches and: I am sure I'll have some lovely stretch marks after this one.

Me too... I have a couple of new stretchmarks now about belly button level that weren't there last week. C'mon baby, I'm ready!

Yes! Mine kills...Iwas wondering if it wasn't because I have the hole from a piercing right above my belly button. When I bend over it burns like my flesh is ripping!

I have not gotten any more stretchmarks with this child YET!!!
All my other ones are only about my panty line. But I am busting out of my clothes too!
DRESSES........they are the MOST comfortable!!!

My skin still isn't feeling that tight over my belly, but I've started to get stretch marks. Just a few and they aren't bad yet, but I've got millions of old scars and was really hoping to avoid getting even more stripes all over my body.

I totally agree that dresses are the way to go. I made myself a simple calico jumper two weeks ago and no longer wear anything else. It is just so comfy! If I'd used knit, it would be even better, but I had one night to sew and calico is easy to work with.
