My hips. OMGoodness my hips. They ache so badly at night I feel like I am being punched. This morning it didn't go away - I literally had one hip give out when I stood up and almost collapsed. I feel like I have been punched all night long...I haven't slept much in a week because of the hip pain. Tonight I will try a pillow between my legs and if that doesn't help, I guess I start sleeping sitting up or on the couch.
Other than that, things are good though. still a bit of heartburn and sometimes morning sickness. Baby is head down and I get one more ultrasound next weekend which is really nice!
Oh peach, i feel you on the hip pain. The only way I'm comfortable is sitting up. Laying down hurts. Walking hurts. I'm really looking forward to getting the baby room furniture into the baby room in the next week or two so I can sleep in the rocker/recliner we got in place of the usual glider.
As it is I've spent most of the last two nights sleeping propped up in bed on a pile of pillows with another pillow under my knees. It mostly works, but I always wake up with a crick in my neck. Laying totally fetal on my side in a cocoon of pillows is a close second in comfort. Pillow behind me, pillow in front of me, pillow between my legs and of course normal head pillow. But inevitably MH rolls over in the night and disturbs my nest. Or I have to pee and then getting rearranged is a hassle.
I feel like a whale, but people keep telling me I'm not that big. I can't imagine what I'm going to look like when I get even bigger. Last night at Target, I picked up what I thought was a tunic from the maternity clearance rack. Nope. It is most definitely, 100%, a regular-length sweater once it's on.
My ribs/back/hips hurt and I'm tired. The nursery and guest room are full of unpacked boxes because I put them in there to hide them. I am not thinking that the chances of them getting unpacked soon are good with how lazy I am feeling.
I am a whale. i know this for a fact because EVERY SINGLE PERSON I TALK TO feels the need to tell me that I'm enormous, ask if I'm sure on the due date and ask me if I'm sure I'm not having twins. And when I make this face they swiftly assure me that I'm all baby and it's adorable.
Uh huh. thanks. It's not. I can see the double chin as well as you can genius, but thanks for reminding me.
I, ummm...MAY be getting a little cranky about this.

All this minus the nine weeks part. I still have 14 weeks to go! I'm so impatient. I want the baby now! haha
Every. Single. Day. someone new says "WOW you look REALLY pregnant today!" Thanks. Today, someone said "you're belly is like triple the size it was!"
Also, my lower and upper back have started hurting SO much, especially sitting in my chair at work.
H finally finished the floors in the nursery and is almost done with the trim, he's just working on one corner that I guess dips a little because it won't line up. Then, I'll start hanging things. We just need the crib and a chair; all of the other furniture is bought.

I'm. F'ing. Over. It.
Due in 11 days.
So grouchy. Actually today is not bad, but I'm in a grey cloud.
My gassy-ness is epic. It is keeping me awake at night. I can't eat anything. All I want is a head of broccoli! HA!
TMI: The other day I farted the biggest fart ever of my entire life. I was so relieved I cried.
Good thing is I'm ready. Nursery, freezer meals, bags packed, DD arranged for, etc. all done. I'm sure I missed some stuff, but DD and I ran around all morning doing other errands too.
Found out that it's a girl this week and DH got to feel her move - both exciting. I'm pretty sure she has a name too, though we're going to try it out for a week and see if it sticks.
Feeling good, but chubby. I've overindulged in holiday treats and can't wait to get back into my workout routine.

I'm really really trying hard to stay positive.
So close! Finish line in sight! At least fart jokes are funny!

Thanks! I've actually had a pretty good day. (see staying positive)
My brother has only 3 sisters, so I always make sure I text him my TMI gross stuff. He get a text about that fart for sure!
there has been more than one time during this pregnancy where I have wanted to take a picture of a truly epic poo to show somebody later. But it's not like anybody wants to see that, so I've resisted.
But seriously. Epic. I stand there watching them after flushing with the plunger in hand just in case.

wawa I'm laughing so hard i'm crying. This killed me. Pregnancy is fun isn't it? *snort*
Bunny, I hit that stage with my daughter. Everything sucks, everyone needs to be poked in the eye with a fork or just STFU. Nothing is comfortable, nothing tastes good, everything is awful. :-(
i'm not even half way done. i'm around 16.5 weeks pg. i am anxiously awaiting our next OB appt. on Jan 16th because it is the gender one. i want a little girl so very much, but will be very blessed by another little boy.
i am having a hard time falling asleep lately. i've had the 2nd trimester sniffles for quite awhile, but also just got over a bad head cold (hate that i'm so limited on treating stuff). also, my 2nd trimester heartburn has kicked in. hate that.
I'm almost 2/3rds done! I'm having Braxton Hicks all the time. I don't get it, I rarely had them with my other 3 kids. A little heartburn but nothing else major.
29 weeks yesterday. Suddenly realizing "oh crap, I'm almost ready to deliver and I haven't done anything." Scheduled the birthing class and the baby care class last night, now I"m prepping all my cloth diapers. Maybe I should work on getting child care set up for when I go back to work, too...
