Pregnant after IF

I feel like my stomach is about to explode

I have a fairly short torso and as of this morning I feel like my stomach is about to explode at any minute. 

I realize I am going to get a lot bigger but I have no clue how I am going to get bigger.  My skin hurts and I think stretch marks will be popping up at any second as I expand.

I never thought it would be this painful to be pregnant!

  • i would have pain and pressure like that and an itchy belly for a couple days and then wake up and i swear my belly grew 2" it was like the precursor for a uterine growth spurt.

    I have a short torso also - the about-to-explode-feeling comes and goes and somehow you'll keep making room for your little girl! :)

    Just wait until parts of your belly go numb! ;)

    Sorry it's uncomfortable today. 

  • ugh - i hope you feel better LCB!

  • Yea, it's not the most pleasant feeling. Just use lots of cocoa butter, it makes your skin feel nice even if it truly doesn't help with stretch marks.

  • this!! and then you are "comfy" in your skin for a little bit until the next time.  I kept thinking that stretch marks would be happening (since i got them pretty badly from growing during puberty) but so far so good....
