Re: any ideas

  • Could be baby on a nerve or bad place....try sitting on a ball, or getting on all fours. Laying on your back could make it worse. hang in there!

  • I've been spending the last 2 hours of every day of the past week floating in the tub. I get all wrinkly, but the relief is worth it.

    My back pain is excruciating and constant as of Friday (was on and off for 5 days before that). I lay in the tub or take a hot shower (and put the hand held piece directly on my back), I bought a heating pad for (trying to) sleep, I've used ice, squat or sit on a low step (or crate) with my feet far apart, being on all fours and alternating curving my back and tucking my pelvis in and and arching my back. I also curl my snoogle up into a ring and lay on it so my belly hangs inside the ring, and sitting cross legged with a big pillow to lean forward on.

    DH actually took me to the hospital on Friday night after I was sobbing in pain. I was starting to hope it was a kidney infection so I would know I could get some relief! Unfortunately it's not. But they did say I have a bit further to drop so once baby descends a little I'm hoping the pain will let up. They did say I could take Tylenol (but I haven't taken anything during my pregnancy and don't want to) and they offered me morphine. I'm calling first thing tomorrow to book a prental massage for this week. Hopefully that will help!
