hi ladies,

ok, I want to run this by you all, my GYN told me it is normal for blueish veins to start to appear on my belly at this stage of the game...due to hormones, anyone here have a few blue veins showing on their belly?
I know during pregnancy, this is a normal sort of things, due to hormonal changes, so I guess she's right. But, I just wanted to ask if anyone else has this, or has heard of this. I just noticed it tonight, there's only a few, but they are on the lower part of my belly, on both sides, over by the hips. Now, I have to admit, I do have to loose weight, probably about 25lbs...so these blue veins are sort of under that little spare "tire" I have. I was thinking maybe that it was also due to the weight there, but I have already lost about 20 lbs. over the past few months.

I also notice, I get these strange sudden pains in my lower abdomen, they come and go. Oh boy, this has been a month from HELL! It's as though, my hormones SUDDENLY decided "hey, she's 49, we've got to get on the ball here and cause her insane agony!" LOL geez! This month, I have felt so darn sick, I thought I was dying...lol...
and all those vericose veins, holy cow! They have gotten better thank God, the ones on my legs, but now I've discovered a few on my belly ... when does this all end?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks girls.........mydarling
