Answer 2

Don't even read the other posters or doctors or nurses or any others in healthcare field as well above or below here and their answers because they are definetly wrong for sure. The reason why is because medical birth hasn't been around since the beginning of time and has been here for since medival, spl times as I think. Personally, I'm not for this kind of birth, but when it is truly a medical necessary and not made up to medical necessary and scaring you and your family, friends, and etc. I'm not even milant as well as holadoc referred me to, but just wanted to you to aware of traditional birth as well. I know I haven't been pregnant or give birth yet, but that will happen in the future. Since ever subscribing to Mothering Magazines and like how I see things now from the past. Also, I volunteer in Maternity Department at the local hospital by me, so I see, and etc there as well. I recommed you don't show up for your the rest of doctor's appointments or don't consult the doctor or its office or the hospital either pre regisation or admission test or the section, and so on. Definetly don't listen to your dh or any of your family or friends or doctor or others . Definetly get a midwife that's isn't mainstream or stuff like that. Also, please try to breastfeed afterwards because it's it much more better then formula. Breastfeeding as around since the beginning of time and formula was introducted last half century so breastfeeding is way better then formula again. Also, do attactment parenting more then mainstream parenting because again it has been around since beginning of time and not like mainstream parenting when it has been around for at least a century now. Think thats it and good luck with it.

Answer 3

Every woman's body changes differently during pregnancy. It sounds like you might be a first-timer. Don't worry, you'll be as big as a barn before it's all over and done with!

I think I asked my doctor this question around this time in my first pregnancy. She was kind enough to explain how the uterus works, and showed me where to press (on my tummy) to feel where the uterus was positioned at the time. She described it as feeling kind of like an orange. Until my third trimester, I couldn't feel it unless I was lying flat on my back.

It's been a while, and I have been under the influence of Barney intermittently over the past eight years, but if I remember right, around the 20th week, it should be right around your navel, and then will migrate northward approximately one inch (or was that cm?) per week until your delivery.

Best wishes!

P.S. My favorite pregnancy book was "Your Pregnancy Week By Week" (http://www.amazon.com/Your-Pregnancy-Week/dp/1555612601 ) for medical facts and such. I am a visual learner, and the illustrations were extremely helpful to me.

For humorous advice, you can't beat: The Girlfriends' Guide to Pregnancy: Or everything your doctor won't tell you, by Vicki Iovine. http://www.amazon.com/Girlfriends-Guide-Pregnancy-everything-doctor/dp/0671524313/ref=pd_sim_b_2/002-2381621-0381627?ie=UTF8

Answer 4

No problem with that. It is not at all unusual at all. I have known women who were not even in maternity clothes at delivery.
It's all in the build of the women and the physical shape they're in.
I did not need maternity clothes myself on my first pregnancy until well toward the end, like eighth month or so.

Answer 5

I bet that there is nothing is wrong, sometimes women's stomachs stay soft the whole time it really depends on how your body is built. My tummy was soft-ish until the 7th month on my last two babies. If you are really worried you really need to ask your OB doctor. Good Luck

Answer 6

everyone is different...some are big as houses and some don't show at all....it all depends on your genetic makeup......good luck and god bless....don't worry......
