Wednesday, January 4, 2012 What is Braxton Hicks Contractions Posted by Clavel at 1/04/2012 11:42:00 PM

According to Anmum Materna’s Trimester guide for Mom, One of the things expectant women experience during pregnancy are contractions. A contraction is the rhythmic tightening of your belly- a spasm that feels a lot like stomach ache. It can radiate from the lower back and around the belly. You have been experiencing practice contractions called “Braxton Hicks”. But, a labor contraction is longer–lasting and causes more discomfort. Wow! This scares me and even worried me. In my present condition, I am definitely experiencing Braxton Hicks Contractions most of the time. And, It was a very uncomfortable feeling. Sometimes you hold your stomach up for seconds there to help let go of the pain or something. Is exercise help lessen contraction during labor? I should know that by now LOL!...

Wednesday, August 31, 2011 Are Pregnant Women Always This Sensitive? Posted by Clavel at 8/31/2011 02:36:00 AM

Before, I blog about pregnant women being so moody, but now I noticed they are not only moody but they are also sensitive and easily gets hurt. Sometimes, they cried for no apparent reason. Not only that, they are also insecure!lol!. Forgive me by saying all of these negative character because I know not all pregnant women are like these. I am referring to myself actually. Last week, I cried a lot because hubby woke up late in the morning and did not able to prefer early breakfast for me. Yesterday, I was kind of had this little thing with my mother, and I cried while I was inside public vehicle, on my way home. Today, again, I cried because all my favorite outfit doesn't fits me anymore. I am not the insecure type of a person, well, I easily get cried because I am sensitive, but when I got pregnant, some of these attitude has on me! and I am so insecure now? what's wrong with me? lol!. I know I will get over this. This is only part of being pregnant, it shall come to pass...
