My baby leans LEFT!
I'm carrying way to the left. I'm totally lop-sided. Is it unusual for an unborn baby to sit way over on one side?

Also, my left breast is twice as big as my right breast.

I look really weird.

Just wanted to share.

;-)

2. Maybe he's just trying to be nice to me...
...since it's the right side of my pelvis that was broken last year. What a sweet kid already.

:hi:

5. I don't, actually.
I haven't had my picture taken in a few months. I should get a shot of this while it lasts tho. It's pretty funny.

6. My son...
Would shift his entire body to mt right side. It got so bad that I'd have to push him back to the middle.

13. I did...
I'd lay my arm down the right side of my belly and kneed him back to the center. I'd also have battles between him and my cat. She would lay on my tummy and purr and make kitty biscuits. He would elbow her in the gut.

7. This is not a surprise...
... all of the cool people around lean to the left.

Almost all of the people on this website lean left, correct?

;)

If your baby is leaning to the left, that would predict a great future, if you ask me.

10. Nope, not too weird
Kiddos move around a lot... are you getting kicked under the ribs yet? I swear, my daughter wanted out just under my upper left ribs. Hurt like hell!

How much longer? Definitely take pics, it's very surreal after you get back to normal!

14. Yep
My baby sat on my right sciatic nerve for two days until we massaged him over to the left and front a bit. I couldn't move my bowels during those days, either. Oy!

15. The breast disparity is normal. You will probably have one (left one)
that will make a lot more milk also.

I was totally lopsided and thought the right one was going to go dry and I could feed sextuplets on just my left breast. The baby will decide that the left is the one he or she likes too because it is easier which will just exacerbate the whole thing. No big deal though.

What's wrong with being lopsided? Nothing.

If the baby is already a thumb sucker they might like laying over to the left because it is easier to get to that thumb they like. Just an idea.

16. Is that your left or his/her left?
If s/he's on your left side, then s/he's leaning to his/her right, isn't s/he?
