Thanks for the info!!!yeah its hard to believe that im pg after tubes tied but i guess im a walking miracle!!!the cramps i feel are more like period cramps than bh they just will come and go and i notice them more early in the morning before getting up and after sex.my boobs though oh god i don't remember them being this sore with my other three.does it ever let up? and my due date is 11/09/06., but i have to have c-section b/c of two previous c-sections so i hope to have it on 10/31/06.It is so different being pg at 35 than when i was 24!!!
oh yeah i also forgot after sex or after an orgasm will you experience what i say feels like slight braxton hicks in your lower abdomen in first trimester?
Hi there,
I didn't notice a change in areola color until my second trimester, I never got a linea negra, and braxton-hicks like contractions didn't happen until well into my second trimester. I felt painful cramping, like period cramps, earlier but not painless BH contractions.
This is so exciting for you! I still can't hardly believe that you had your tubes tied and are now pg. How amazing! When is your due date?? You're remembering to take your prenatals, right?
Good luck!!!
Being a fair skinned chica myself, I never had the linea negra down my belly, nor did I have to deal with the "mask of pregnancy" I did however notice the darkening of the nipples pretty early, by about 5 or 6 weeks.
As far as orgasms, as your uterus grows, you will notice the uterine contractions that accompany orgasms more easily.
Hope that asnwers your questions somewhat.

Like andi, the only thing I got was the areola darkening. It got slightly darker in the first trimester, and then even darker in second.
As far as contractions after sex, that started for me in the second trimester.
Take care,
Amanda
