Only 58 more days to go!? 51 if we do the scheduled c-section on July 18th! Ahh! It's going by so fast. My shower is in a little over 3 weeks! We are going to try to do maternity pictures the weekend before, so that's coming up in about 2ish weeks! Last night, after we laid down to go to sleep I was feeling this small bump feeling in my LOW abdomen, right above my pubic area. It was pretty consistent and so I think it was hiccups. That's the first I've experienced the hiccups. It was kinda worrisome at first, but after Googling, that's the conclusion I came to. Lol. Everything seems to be good today. I've felt her moving around some. She's got to be running out of room in there, so the movements aren't as "quick" as usual. More of just slow, rolling, morphing belly movements. Lol!
I've been having more leg cramps, and I have to hurry and really straighten my leg out and flatten my foot to try to avoid the utter hell of them. So far, so good. Boobs have had some sharp pains lately, no leaking yet, though. Wondering if that will ever come. Sleepy. Back hurts, can hardly bend over to lift the toilet seat up in the middle of the night. Lol. Sounds pathetic, but it's true. I have to more bend to the side and bend my knees to reach it. Belly button is becoming a lot more shallow. My piercing is getting irritated off and on, so I ordered a pregnancy belly ring to help with that, hopefully. It should get here sometime this week. Also, can't wait to get the Boba wrap that one of my fellow TTCers/Preggos sent me this week! :)

He gets them all the time now too, hiccuping up a storm right now! I can't believe you're almost there, it's so exciting! I can't wait to see your little lady! |
 | Comment from mrsamanda » Posted May. 28, 2014 3:03pm I try to drink water, but I hate the taste so I don't drink as much as I probably should. Yes!! Alabama is so humid!! |
 | Comment from eag923 » Posted May. 28, 2014 2:53pm Oh man, I had such bad leg cramps with my first, I would limp for days afterwards. My OB said it was usually due to dehydration. Drink water, water, water! I'm in south Georgia & was due in July when I had her, so I know how hot you are! |
 | Comment from hopejosh » Posted May. 27, 2014 4:01pm I've heard potassium and magnesium helps with the legs cramps. T thankfully I didn't have that with my previous pregnancies. I did however have RLS. Only thing that helped was my hubby rubbing my legs every night before bed lol. |
 | Comment from Cattsmeow » Posted May. 27, 2014 3:37pm Lucky. I get those bad ones at night while sleeping. They are horrible. I hope you get spared. |
| Comment from Bammom » Posted May. 27, 2014 3:02pm With my first I never knew if it was hiccups or just baby dancing around, this time around the hiccups are lots more obvious. They end after 30 seconds or a minute though so they are easy to miss if you aren't paying attention. I do not envy the leg cramps you are getting! I (knock on wood) don't have that issue this time around. (thank GOD) |
| Comment from mrsamanda » Posted May. 27, 2014 2:40pm Not yet. I've been lucky enough to catch them right as they are about to start and straighten out my leg and foot. |
| Comment from Cattsmeow » Posted May. 27, 2014 2:34pm Leg cramps are horrible! Have you gotten them so bad in your calf that you can't straighten your leg and flatten your foot? |
