Semperviva Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 [quote name='DeeDee' date='Aug 9 2005, 12:28 PM']Wait till your baby starts doing somersaults! About the hard "stomach" thing. Your uterus contracts in preparing for birth. These contractions can be kind of strange because all of a sudden you have this huge mound in front of you, but there is a way to stop that: just take your fingers on each side of the mound and press gently thinking all the while relax! relax!, and the hardness will go away. Let me know if this works with you. [right][snapback]678373[/snapback][/right] [/quote] that all sounds complicated i'd probly get confused if i had to do that and make everything more tense
Semperviva Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 this whole thread is weird cuz "being pregnant" is not something my firends and i ever ever discuss with any certain knowledge or concrete like examples-- its always like this vague thing up in the air like "when i have a baby" like saying when i go to the moon or something

But those contractions (Braxton Hicks contractions) don't usually hurt, they just feel odd. I never tried to stop them because I was hoping that they'd super-prep my uterus and I'd go into labor a couple weeks early. lol
