sam / fabbie,
hannor, totally can't see my feet anymore when I'm standing up.. hehe
snowger,
I've that cramp/hardening feeling at the bottom of my belly quite frequently. I guess it's due to weight of bb & gravity or bb's position that exerts pressure at the belly bottom. Since the cramp feeling goes away after a while, I'm not so bothered about it. How frequent is yours?
Ya, I'll try going on all 4s.. but the last time I tried, my #1 still in OP. Ya, during the last u/s scan, bb is facing left side of my tummy. Just pray that bb will turn to face down during labour.
Gd news is that my gynae says labour for #2 is expected to shorten to 4-5 hrs.. yeah! really hope so!
Re: maternity pads
I like kotex maternity adhesive pads, without the hassle of string around the loop. However my hospital provide the loop, so I'll use it during the hospital stay. But at home I'll use the adhesive one & change frequently. I find the kotex pads feels softer to the wound down there, esp when I've a bad tear. After my wound has more or less healed, then I switched to the normal, night-use pads to save $.
