Not the things that happen to everybody (or most people) like morning sickness, cravings, etc.
Did you have something unique happen during or immediately following a pregnancy?
For example – - my hair got wavy (good) but I started getting routine canker sores (bad).
What’s yours?
Yeah I got these things, I guess they are called hips. lol really though I do get more canker sores too, thats odd.
It seems like my hair has gotten thicker. Maybe its the age I’m at or something but I have enough hair for 2 or 3 people.
i went from pin straight hair to big curls.
still got them 10yrs later.
Good – I sprouted a butt! I never had a nice booty before, and I figured once I lost most of the baby weight, it would go away again, but the cute lil’ round thing is still here, LMAO
Bad – Ever since having Johnny, I have uh… well – constipation issues. Enough said. LOL
I actually was happy with my body!!! For the first time in my life I was proud of the way I looked, proud of what my body could do. Before having babies I hated just about everything about it but now I quite like it, right down to the dimpled thighs and saggy boobs
I had bloody gums! not anymore though, that stopped almost immediately after I had my baby. my feet swelled up a ridiculous amount after birth too (I hear this is somewhat common though?). none of my shoes fit, not even my uggs or slippers.
I have found that now, though, I don’t have to shave my legs as often. I have no idea why this is, but I shaved my legs once after birth, which was 6 weeks ago, and they’re still smooth (well, a litttttttle stubbly)!
My hair got curly, my feet got bigger, my wrists got smaller (?!), I no longer needed glasses, I can’t eat tomatoes or watermelon without heartburn, and, of course, rubenesque figure, stretch marks, etc.
I’ve got a weird one….before I had my son I’d never had a sunburn or peeled in my life. Now for some reason I’ve got to be very careful of the sun because I fry like bacon!
Wavy, coarse, unruly hair, topped with an out-of-control, ongoing thyroid problem (goes from hypo to hyper on the drop of a dime).
Wow about the canker sores…after my second son I got them occasionally and I had never had 1 until after my sons..
bad..my hair didn’t get curly more like wavy/nappy.I used to have straight straight hair and now I just have this weird looking wave:(
good..I’m thinking I’m thinking…
oddly enough i didn’t lactate and my chest went from a DD to a G now those are growing pains Lol
I found out that I had a small gap in my pelvic bone. During my pregnancy that gap grew to 6 inches… I had a CT recently and the tech thought I was in a car accident because of it.
No real problems from it except sometimes my hips get out of place. Nothing a chiropractor can’t fix though.
One good thing after my 1st is that my periods were almost non existent…Like 1 – 2 days with no cramping. I was loving it… Then they went back to the periods from hell after my 2nd.
Had the picture perfect pregnancy, no swelling, no stretchmarks, no sickness, nice skin, didn’t have to shave as often….
Now, my hair grows quicker on my legs and underarms so i’m always shaving. Surprisingly it doesn’t grow as fast on my hooha *lol* My skin is still good but i’ll get the occasional blemish now, and now I have the wonderful "hourglass" figure and I LOVE it very much. I also now have bigger boobs, which is also nice. Being pregnant was very good to my bod ;o)
My hair got wavy too!! Only after the fifth pregnancy though…isn’t that weird?
Also, during my fifth labor, I got this mysterious looking ‘mustache’. It isn’t hair,; it’s more of a pigment thing, but it happened right during labor! My husband looked at me strangely after one contraction and said, ‘Uh, Carrie? You have a mustache."…lol it was very strange and now when my face gets tanned, you can still see it!
Following pregnancy was PP…part emflabbier in the tummy area and there is a detailed roadmap as well.
