I don't think so. It is more that my belly is really tight and I think Ziggy (nickname since we don't know if baby is a boy or a girl) is moving around trying to get a bit more room. I am also getting sore around the base of my tummy possibly from the musles trying to carry the weight. I think baby is going through a growth spurt again. It was like this a few weeks ago when my belly grew rapidly in a short space of time.

I had my first iron injection yesterday morning so I am hoping my energy levels increase and that I get less breathless. Haydon gave it to me (with doctors prescription) and it was not as painful as you may expect. I had heard he was good at giving intermuscular injections. A friend that had to have regular injections used to time his visits to the hospital when he knew nurse Haydon was on shift.

You are anemic? Wow, you must be exhausted all the time. I hope you are not overexerting yourself.

I've never heard of a baby going through growth spurts while in the womb before. That's interesting.  Hopefully you're not sore once Ziggy starts clawing and kicking around. Those can be painful.  I remember crying a couple of times from Matthew's kicks.
