a little worried

[Terri2]

wow I hope you have a brilliant time in Devon. We are going to Padstow in October, my dh is booked on a Rick Stein cooking course! I'll be quite big by then!

I am also more chilled out now but still worry because thats what us women do! I think my dh is also relieved I have chilled out a bit now!
I'm not much younger than you I'm 34. I was just under the age that would have given me a higher score! Its mad really. I know someone who was about 25 when she had a downs syndrome baby. I don't think your age gives you any guarantee at all. Thats why its good to have the scan!

I told everyone after the scan, I spent half the day on the phone. I had been bursting to tell everyone for ages!
I am running out of bottom half clothes to wear. I'm going shopping tomorrow to try and find something to fit me! I think I'll just have to buy the next size up for now.

I've had a couple of twinges, really feels like stretching! Maybe its the uterus moving up because today I feel bigger and trousers feel tighter.

I have just bought two bottles of clarins anti stretchmark oil! Its supposed to really work! I wont' be upset if I get stretchmarks as I just feel so blessed to be pregnant but if I can prevent them with this oil, then why not give it a go!

Love Terri

I would try not to worry much. I have lower backachhes, abdominal ligament stretching pains, everyday. My abdomen is so far out there that I have to wear a maternity dupport belt and I'm only 18w3d, I can barely get out of bed nor turn over. I did not have this with my 3 prior pregnancies and I'm 30 years young. I have some cramping, not severe..just mild and sometimes my uterus contracts, braxton hicks especially if I've moved around to much or have stood on my feet to long. I also have a presrciption from the DR for a walker and a handicap decal sticker.....but I thank the LORD everyday for blessing us.
