What bothers/surprises you most about your changing body?
My butt crack. It has stretch marks and is also a completely different color than the rest of my body. Well, besides my armpits, they've gotten darker too. Oh, and a couple of my moles have tripled in size.....yeah, didn't know that would happen.
What has surprised you? Or what bothers you that you knew was coming?
It all bothers me!! LOL Today I was at the doc. and it is looking like I have pre-ecl so the swelling I've gotten from that SUCKS and bothers me. My shoes barely fit and my hands are so swollen! Also, I was surprised by the changes I've had in my nipples... just how much they have grown!

I don't like that my hips get wider, earlier with each baby. I was expecting some changes but UGH!
I am 100% terrified of my belly button coming out. It scares me more than the extra weight, scares me more than giving birth. It didn't pop out with my 1st baby, but I just have this bad feeling. I feel like if it comes out I will die. It's completely stupid. I know. But I've even called my midwife about it, and in group we talked about it. Nothing scares me more than my belly button becoming an outtie

THANK YOU!! My midwife laughed when I asked if taping a toungue depressor over it would keep it in! If there's a way to keep that thing in -I will try it.
Quoting lizhalee:
Oh no! It may be completely stupid but I have completely stupid fears too! I hope your belly button stay cooperative!

The "morning sickness" was awful this time around and I actually had a case of benigne positional vertigo. That sucked big time. Missed 2 days of work bc I couldn't drive or even walk a straight line. I had to get a shot to stop the vomiting. The tiredness, no energy, and back/hip pain!! I wasn't expecting my uterus to be so sensitive. Like when I get measured at the drs, if they push too hard it Hurts!! And I swear my feet are bigger. I already have big feet and I am short so it is totally out of proprtion with my body.
