@ladylis92, yes the joys. All this stuff no one ever tells you about 😂 thought pregnancy was just a beautiful bump and cute baby to show for it. Little did I know about all the aches and pains along the journey lol. Okay I’ll have to look that up! Thankyou!

@kasey.m aw the beauty of motherhood am I right? Lol for skin moisture and itch, might I recommend castor oil mixed with an coco butter lotion. The castor oil is a little thick but a little goes a long way if you mix it. It can be a little oily but I haven't actually gotten any stretch marks (knock on wood) because my skin is never really dry.

@ladylis92, omg how crazy! I started to show around 9 weeks also! Everyone was asking am I having twins lol 😂 so far just the one in there. We think we’re having a boy also, we find out Oct 9th so 🤞🏻haven’t felt it in my legs but I do have itchy stomach and breasts already and my back aches like period cramps almost and I feel crampy in my lower abdomen quite often. There was even a few weeks around 12-14 weeks where I had a very bad joint pain in my hips/buttcheek area which I’m assuming was my hips starting to widen 😳 so painful.

@kasey.m totally! I was showing at 9 weeks like I was 12 and I'm a first timer too. Mine is a boy 😜. Id be interested to know what you're having!

I totally have had cramps here and there but today was really the first time it was everywhere- back, legs, stomach, skin

I feel like I’m growing and showing a lot for being a FTM and 18 weeks but I get crampy almost daily and it’s nerve racking but my doc said it’s my uterus and baby still had a good strong heartbeat 🤷🏻‍♀️

@ladylis92, lol no worries. When I hit 21 weeks, I had a lot of the round ligament pain. A lot of the mommas on here would mention it, so I finally looked it up and immediately knew that was what I was going through lol

@mommakuala thanks 😊 I figured but feel dumb calling my OB for every little thing...

It could be round ligament pain. That just means he’s growing!!
