It was actually my partner Victoria's doctor and it's Victoria's pregnancy, but a wonderful experience for me and all womankind. Victoria, who is a big, sexy Mama, but not fat, started her pregnancy at 170 lbs. Now she's at 19 weeks and has only gained 2 pounds. Of course, Victoria's having the reverse problem you've described, but we were concerned. The doctor (who is a man) said that she's perfect and has the right amount of fat-stores and that all that talk about women gaining 25 to 30 pounds is crap. He said that the traditional weight charts consider the ideal weight for women way too skinny and that women who start pregnancy very thin should probably gain more than 30. <BR/><BR/>So I think the reason you have gained more than two pounds is because you were probably too thin to start.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-4825630973315207632008-08-24T17:02:00.000-07:002008-08-24T17:02:00.000-07:00Until an ultrasound tech told me they were hiccups...Until an ultrasound tech told me they were hiccups, I thought Axel was kicking or dancing - and had the best rhythm in the world for a fetus.

Amazing.<BR/><BR/>I do NOT miss the way he would kick the shit out of my rib cage. But I would put up with it again if I could magically be, oh maybe 7 months pregnant again for about an hour, just for nostalgia's sake.

Just in case that actually helps. <BR/><BR/>This might be why none of my tattoos have stretched during pregnancy (not even slightly.) <BR/><BR/>overan-- I actually posted about tattoos stretching during pregnancy, here: <BR/><BR/>http://www.girlsgonechild.net/2008/06/tattoos-stretching-during-pregnancy.html<BR/><BR/><BR/>Re: no outie Belly button. I'm guessing my perma-innie has to do with the fact that I was blessed (not) with an umbilical hernia, which is basically a caved in stomach around the belly button. My innie is normally VERY innie. Like, abnormally so. Again, it's hereditary and I don't recommend it. Very uncomfortable during pregnancy because there is no muscle or tissue beneath or around my belly button. It's like a cave. In junior high my friends used to see how many baby marshmellows they could fit in my belly-button (not kidding) because of its depth and proportions.GIRL'S GONE CHILDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07130764109593048451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-17709507235398276242008-08-23T16:47:00.000-07:002008-08-23T16:47:00.000-07:00haha i noticed the belly button right away too! an...haha i noticed the belly button right away too! and no stretch marks again- you lucky duck.<BR/><BR/>you made me want to be pregnant again for about a nano second. the urge is gone now but thanks for that moment ;)~jjlibraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18751784.post-38115907604763817892008-08-23T16:31:00.000-07:002008-08-23T16:31:00.000-07:00Awww.
