I read that 21-22 wks is a growth spurt week, so maybe!! I'm 22wks today and my belly feels very full and tight. Plus, LO is in there practicing her power kicks!
Unfortunately my stomach feels like this most days. It started around 23 weeks and I don't remember it being this tight with DD. It's really uncomfortable!

BTW - did you ever figure out what was up with your hand/arm today? I missed it if you posted an update....
The doctors drove me crazy today. Some said maybe a blood clot, some said carpal tunnel etc. Sooo, I have an appt. on Fri.
What's going on with your arm??
I saw my doc two weeks ago and I talked to her about my arms. They both go dead if I sleep in one position too long, no matter which way I'm sleeping. My doc said that it was a pregnancy related form of carpal tunnel, and that if it gets really bad I can wear arm-sling-stint thingys at night while I sleep. I decided to just suffer through not feeling my arms at night.

I woke up to it being numb & it has been like that all day.
my tummy feels bloated like every other day or so...seriously effects how much i eat. and the past few days its been really bad cause the baby has been awake for I swear 4 days straight and kicking/punching/head butting the holy crap out of me!
And I had the hands goin numb during the first trimester. When I told my doc he said it was prolly just my back was out because I wasnt having pain when I bent my wrists. But my chiro disagreed. Now Im about 20 wks and they dont go numb as much, but I have lost a lot of strength in my hands. Im hoping once the pregnancy is over, the swelling will go away and my hands will go back to normal.
Re: What is up w/ my tummy??
Bar tab = $156,000, Bus to Foxwoods = $0, Puking in the Stanley Cup = Priceless
Mine has been like that this week too...

Ugh, seriously? Sorry they couldn't tell you today - is it feeling any better?
A little. Thanks. It just scared the hell out of me.
I don't remember this w/ DS either?? Strange.
