It doesn’t hurt but...

Sore skin from stretching

I know it’s down to skin stretching but has anyone had the top of their belly (or anywhere) literally stinging and sore to touch and managed to sooth it ? The top of my bump feels like I’ve fallen over and grazed it. Any clothing touching it almost hurts 😂

Popping/cracking noise from belly

Anyone else experienced this? It’s so subtle and quiet, but definitely audible! It’s almost like occasional little pops/cracks. No pain or discomfort with it, just bizarre! Thought I might be hearing things but my partner heard it too 😂 I’m 30 weeks.

Nasal congestion? Mucus?

Basically, my baby is now going into the fifth week of having congestion! He basically sounds like a little pig! Last week he was snotty but I think that was due to the jabs.
