Had my appointment today. I'm measuring right on. I only gained 3 lbs. in 2 weeks! YIPPEE! He did my GBS test and checked my cervix, I'm 1 cm dilated. YAY! At least I know something is going on down there despite the fact I could be 1 cm for a while. Now I start going weekly. He said my hands hurting is normal. Oh and also, that red spots on my belly button are because of my piercing, the scar tissue is more sensitive to the stretching.
My hands feel like they are bruised or the muscles have been worked too much. Only the bottoms of them, and my feet, as well. He said it's because of the swelling.
