I have that low pressure too & was a little concerned. I didn't have this with my daughter - actually it's an entirely different pregnancy. But I asked the doc @ my u/s if everything was ok, he said everything is great. Then I saw my OB shortly after the u/s & asked him the same thing. He felt my belly & said the baby is fine & it's just the bottom of my uterus stretching & the baby is starting to stretch & move above my belly button. But I know what you all mean. And for me its walking up & down stairs that I notice it the most. Or just overdoing anything - housework, etc.

Christine - I think you're right, it's most likely a growth spurt - which makes sense & pretty much what my OB meant.

Ebru - I totally know what you mean - I have 2 sisters & we're pretty close, although 1 lives in Cali & the other lives in Fla. But we talk, text & e-mail all the time. I talk to my 2 brothers probably just as much.

Sarah - my preggo brain is getting worse too! When I help my 5 year old with her PRE-K homework (she gets a packet of homework every week), on 1 page last week & just sat there staring @ it & couldn't figure it out! My 5 year old had to tell me!! Seriously, how bad is that?! It just wouldn't register! Her teacher was laughing at me, but I've known her for a few years now.

I'm pretty big too. I feel like every other day my belly grows overnight! Definitely can't button anything over my boobs! My DH just laughs, but he can't believe how big I'm getting. With my DD I wasn't showing much until mid 5 months preggo. You show sooner with 2nd baby.

BTW, where are you ladies looking for your baby bedding? I'm not really one for specific themes, just coordinated girly stuff. But I can't decide on anything. Any ideas?? I need to find some nice appliques & custom stencils. No real artistic talent here.
