Just read your post.
My joints kill as well - esp my fingers and feet. It also hurts to stand up. I always feel like I just got done with a hardcore workout after not having worked out in months. I have discovered that laying my feet over our vibrating back massager works wonders though.
I am really looking forward to having my body back, but I will probably regret saying this once I am no longer pregnant. :-)
Thats funny about how we are wimps about the diff delivery options. lol! I am sure whatever happens will be just fine for you though. I can't wait to hear all about it. And I hope those girls stay put for you until they are good and ready! :-)
