Surprise pregnancy side effects

Categories: Just For Moms, Pregnancy & Birth

I have two friends who are currently pregnant. Both of them are expecting their third child are due in about eight weeks. One complains mostly of the standard aches and pains associated with carrying around a child inside of you and has found this pregnancy to be very much like her first two. The other friend, however, is experiencing some brand new stuff.

One thing in particular that is making her life miserable these days is her belly button. She says it is extremely sensitive and feels like an open sore. And as if a raw belly button wasn't bad enough, hers is also sticking way out there, where it is vulnerable to getting scraped up against things. Ow ow ow.

You would think that by pregnancy number three, there would be little in the way of surprises. But she didn't have the belly button thing with her first two children and the whole experience has thrown her a bit. What about you? Did you develop brand new and exciting side effects with each pregnancy? Any advice on the belly button thing?
