I have this </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1410464 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 17:26:32 +0000 MrsH 1410464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was super clumsy while pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1410460 Sun, 09 Feb 2014 17:24:32 +0000 anandam 1410460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. So many broken dishes and glasses.<br /> Like another said, it's the relaxin loosening up all your ligaments and with them, your grasp. </p> <p>Seems so counterintuitive, though! Don't I need to practice a tight grip so I don't drop baby in a few months?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1407782 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 15:04:47 +0000 psw27 1407782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally thought this thread would be about the candy. shucks. I do love me some butterfingers! </p> <p>I haven't noticed I am clumsy -- yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1407781 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 15:04:44 +0000 fussygal 1407781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Greentea: That would be awesome! I need you to follow me around and catch stuff - haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1407754 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 14:54:41 +0000 Greentea 1407754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually developed super human reflexes. Kind of amazing. I never had that before but now I can catch something before it drops. It is interesting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1407685 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 14:33:11 +0000 rattles 1407685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely felt like this! I'm usually clumsy, but at least I temporarily had an excuse! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1407673 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 14:28:25 +0000 preggomeggo82 1407673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm just clumsy in general. Supposedly it's from having so much more fluid in your system and your center of gravity being off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1405999 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 23:29:56 +0000 lemondrop 1405999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm clumsy to begin with, pregnancy just makes me even worse! </p> <p>Now I kinda wanna eat a Butterfinger though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1405990 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 23:26:57 +0000 fussygal 1405990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: lol, I feel like sticky gloves would come in handy sometimes. Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1404833 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 18:32:02 +0000 LovelyPlum 1404833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Three times a week?! Try three times a DAY! I'm a mess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1404789 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 18:22:12 +0000 Bao 1404789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@fussygal: It's about to be "had" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1404786 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 18:21:25 +0000 fussygal 1404786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: Glad there is some science to back it up. I'm feeling like a such a goober lately! DH told me I have to carry breakable things with both hands like a little kid from now on.</p> <p>@Bao: You have some now? Not fair! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1404770 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 18:16:12 +0000 Dandelion 1404770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. It's because of the relaxin hormone that's making your pelvis more loose. It actually makes ALL your joints loose! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1404766 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 18:14:40 +0000 raintreebee 1404766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! And it's so annoying when you can't bend over to pick things up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1404765 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 18:14:12 +0000 Bao 1404765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha no but I was going to come in and say, yes I love butterfingers during pregnancy ;) ....and not during. And that I have them right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1404761 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 18:13:49 +0000 Mae 1404761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hm. Come to think of it I am sort of a bit more clumsy than usual. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/butterfingers-during-pregnancy#post-1404760 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 18:13:05 +0000 fussygal 1404760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, not the candybar - although I'd take one of those, too...</p> <p>I swear I drop something *at least* three times a week since becoming pregnant! Usually it's something small like a pen or a fork, but the other day it was a tub of butter and last night it was one of our dishes which shattered on the floor. As DH and I were cleaning it up I didn't know if I should laugh or cry (a feeling I get often now...) so I just sat there making weird faces as I fought back both - lol. </p> <p>Anyone else have butterfingers during pregnancy? :) Did you drop anything especially comical or special? </p>
