I had to find out the hard way too. :) Except my kidney stone turned out to be Ethan. Literally. They thought I was just having kidney stone complications but there was no kidneystone, just Ethan ready to come out and giving me "back labour". James had the rest of the symptoms for me - the heartburn, the massive weight gain and the cramps.Katiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03050695284526888379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774194320890409832.post-42790200169626270282008-12-10T13:25:00.000-05:002008-12-10T13:25:00.000-05:00if we all disclosed everything, our species would die out :)<BR/><BR/>good job on the water...water cures everything...but if cold water gives you heart burn, drink warm water. :)<BR/><BR/>funky hair growth now, major hair loss after birth--watch out for that one. it scared me!

I got those all the time too. And Shine's right about the funky hair growth. I had some mad tummy hair/fuzz going on. Thankfully magically it went away after Ali was born!Highmaintenancemomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17257512231752930772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774194320890409832.post-46348578607658116802008-12-04T09:22:00.000-05:002008-12-04T09:22:00.000-05:00BTW - I'm loving Squirt's taste in Music!Shinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774194320890409832.post-2389341319433840152008-12-04T09:08:00.000-05:002008-12-04T09:08:00.000-05:00OH I did forget to tell you... yes, leg craps.
