I'm not an Elder, but I sure am elderly.

I woke up in the middle of the night with fingers so stiff that I couldn't even bend them. I could feel the main joint in my fingers rubbing when I attempted to make a fist. I'm assuming it's ye olde pregnancy induced carpal tunnel, but it may as well have been arthritis.

Then I rolled out of bed and yelled - "My hips!" 

I'm the lady from the life alert commercials.

I feel the same effing way.  I have to roll myself out of bed, bend over to adjust a little before walking, then slowly hold the sink to sit down to pee.  My fingers now hurt to bend and I want to crack them so badly, but they won't crack.  I still have weeks and weeks to go, so I can only imagine what I am in store for!

LOL at the picture.  And yes, my hips scream at me when I try to get out of bed.  Joy joy!

I'd really like to know that after sleeping for 8 hours how you can get up and your feet are so sore you feel like you've walked in heels for hours.  It doesn't even make sense.

*dead* at that picture, and yes, I feel way elderly.  Last night I was coloring a clients hair and I had to stop half way through because my fat little fingers started hurting.  And God forbid I stretch my legs in the morning because they will cramp up so bad I am in tears.  My hip pain has made walking from my desk to the printer hell....

Same here. I fell asleep on the couch and my husband came over woke me and asked if I was coming to bed. I tried for 10 minutes to sit up. So I'm lying on my back going help,I can't move. He didn't hear me , so again, I can't get up honey help. Finally he got me up. I was so embarassed.
