I didn't get stretch marks until 36 weeks :/ then once i got them, I got new ones everyday. But who knows, there are people that never get even one :)
@ShelbyandkyleD i know it's way too early to think I'm in the clear, but I'm actually really surprised every day that goes by without them. I really thought I'd get them early! :)
I'm glad you enjoyed your time at home, and how special for those moments with your grandma. I totally know what you mean about all the fruits/veggies coming into season now. I love this time of year for that reason! Have a great week. :)
How indeed! Your pregnancy is flying by. You are carrying low to me, your bump looks just like a melon :P Yay for no stretch marks! I'm glad you enjoyed your time back at home, and that you managed to enjoy all the attention and spotlight. Have a great week! x,
"If I get them It won't be that big of a deal..." I WISH I had that attitude....I also wish I started to pop later....maybe I wouldnt have gotten these horrid marks... ): You look great though...we're almost done!!
I know what you mean.. I'm 31 weeks tomorrow and I'm in full on panic mode!! I didn't even have the time to make videos so I sat down yesterday and did 3... :) Good luck to you!
At least you found out you're a week behind and had less time to go. Imagine you found out you were a week ahead?? LOL Yikes! =) So excited for you Katie!!
33 weeks :) And, how sweet of your mom!! And, yay for it actually ending up being a surprise!! I would love to see stuff or just maybe talk about it in more detail!!
@alandamandamama I appreciate my mom so much! I don't know how she found the time to do it, she's stretched so thin always. Anyway, I will definitely try to do some sort of video about it. :)
I use a variety of things whenever I think of it - Palmer's Oil, Body Shop body butters, lavender oil. I have gotten stretch marks in the past, so I'm really surprised to not have new ones yet. :)
Oh man...my eyes started to water when you are talking about your grandma...I lost my last grandma last year, and I miss her so much. I regret not calling her more on her last few months, and letting her know how much she meant to me.
On a more cheery note, you look great, dont worry so much about getting into shape because you look awesome.
Oh and a question...why is it that there is a scare about flying on the 3rd trimester? what could happen? and is it just taboo?
@valeronni I know! I still cry sometimes thinking about my grandfathers who died in 89 and 03!
Mainly I want to feel stronger so I'll (hopefully) have more endurance for a long labor. :)
I think the main thing is being at greater risk for blood clots sitting for a long time & not moving your legs. Also it's a liability thing for airlines, esp. if you have any high-risk stuff that could make you go into labor in the sky. :) Most of them don't allow you to fly after 36 wks. or even earlier.
@garanandmelissa Yeah, seems like there is interest, and I'd like to get feedback on what we have. Moving this vid to the top of the priority list! :)
Aw, that's so nice you could have that time with your grandma! It's definitely special to hear their wisdom and advice. Glad you had fun back home, how much fun!
