Rashy bum

Anyone else get the hormonal rashy bum? I get it every time, on and off throughout pregnancy. Always feel slightly self conscious when d day arrives and I realise everyone present will have front row seats to the spotty tush show

Water birth, that's the answer

Yup, did that both times and plan to again, but the tuchus still gets flashed about dunnit? No one else ever talks about this as one of the shit pregnancy things.. Is it just me?!

Not experienced it myself, sorry! Keep a towel on hand to wrap around yourself on getting in / out of pool?

Heehee guess I could. Fortunately my DH is amused by it but it doesn't exactly make me feel super attractive. Are you all SURE you don't have rashy bums?? It's quite hard to look at your own bum after all

Awwww! Someone else might come along who does (fingers crossed for you!)

I have monstrous stretch marks, if that helps?

Thanks darth! I'm sure all of the spot ridden derrière sporters out there are just feeling shy.

IT'S OK, PIZZA BUMS! ROLL UP!

I too have many a tiger stripe. Mostly from before I ever got pregmo actually, but they don't really bother me. I can see some beauty in 'em. Not much nice in a boily butt though, eh?
