bump growth spurts
Is it possible to have a growth spurt while awake a notice? I've been at work (i work nights) and at about 3.30am I kept getting what felt like growing pains/stretching in my belly button :-S I am on my feet constantly at work then when I was driving home at 6am my pants where really digging in to me to the point where I had to pull over to sort myself out! Then I noticed when going to take my pants off that my belly seems to be bulging over my pants more. I'm 15 week. Has this happend to anyone else or is my preggo brain playing tricks on me?

You're in for a shocker. Im 33 weeks w twins. My pic is 3 wks old and Im almost double the size... They grow like weeds at the end!

Yes, you can feel like you grew during the day or in your case night. Its prob from being on your feet. Just drink water constantly no matter how much you have to use the bathroom. Don't drink Dasani. It has sodium in it. If you start swelling in your face hands and ankles don't feel bad asking for a break.
I wish you both luck! It's so exciting having a baby!

Just relax as much as you can starting now! Don't stress about the weight eat right! Take your vitamins everyday and drink the ensure drinks that say helping you get healthy from the inside out. Take at least one half hr break a day to rest on your left side the later in your pregnancy you get aim for adding an extra half hr break every few weeks as you feel you need them. Don't over do it. Listen to your body. If you need a break take it! To heck w anyone who doesn't get it. Good luck. Im here if you need anything just tag me in a post.
You're welcome! Best wishes!
