Hello Pain.. Goodbye Bellybutton

I carry usually pretty low.. it's starting to pop out for sure (my dh says it looks like a cat's butt.. isn't that amusing. ) but I have never felt this tenderness. It really hurts like if something brushes up against it I want to jump out of my skin. I stretched a lot with Kyle my oldest, he was the only one I got stretch marks with and they are EVERYWHERE. The funny thing is I have more padding this time around and it's much more difficult for me to find her in there than it was with my boys. I'm hoping the pain goes away soon.

I'm not in pain there at least, but I hope the pain goes away soon for you! I'm mostly having sciatic nerve pain on my right side... which I didn't have at all with dd. I have to move around like an old lady sometimes And yesterday my lower back decided to join in the "fun" too :

love and peace.

That I have had with all of my pregnancies and it sucks. My leg actually goes numb sometimes and I have to be really careful getting up if I have been sitting or laying for an extended period of time because I have absolutely no feeling in my leg. I definitely sympathise with you because sciatic nerve pain is no fun!

Eep! I've never had that before.. yes it does feel like being stabbed. Is there anything I can do to alleviate the discomfort? Is there a reason why this happens or something I have done that helped it along?

Is what you are talking about almost like round ligament pain except by the belly button? Because I have that and it is very strange. Also, whenever the baby kicks me right in the belly button, it hurts. I've never had this before either. I supposed it was because I am so much older than before.

It's kinda like round ligament pain but it seems to last longer or is more tender than that. I think I feel it when the bulk of her body is in that position where it rests against my belly button. Hmm.. I can't say I've ever really felt her kick me in the bb yet.. it's usually lower than that.
