Anyway, I couldn't be happier but my main concern is that I keep feeling the fluttering feeling which is meant to be the babies first movements. I was wondering how often I am meant to feel this and will these stretching pains last throughout the whole pregnancy???cheers. It will put my mind at rest and sort my worry. x x x Reply to this Question Share |

Glad you posted. With my first it was around 17 weeks that I felt the first flutter. It was amazing. The stretching pains on your abdomen is your skin stretching. Honey I hope you are rubbing essential oils on your belly twice a day to prevent stretch marks. Almond oil is good as the carrier oil with lavender and rosemary and orange oil. That was my favourite. I would eat lots of almonds from 6 months pregnancy to enhance more breast milk and also massage your breasts with the oil too as your breasts double in size and triple in weight. The last month you can drink pennyroyal tea which the american indians would use in the first month to have an abortion and the last stages to relax the uterus in preparation for childbirth. Last month practise squats to really get that baby in the right position. I have had four. My last pregnancy were twins so my first flutter with them was a punch under my left boob and a head but on my right hip at the same time. When they did the ultrasound to check the cord blood flow she started laughing and showed me the screen where you could vividly see one twin kicking the other twin on the bum and the other reciprocating with a punch to the head. Enjoy your pregnancy darling. You are at the most beautiful sensual exotic time of your life. Fertile women are absolutely stunning. Enjoy darling.
