awake :(

I woke up with LO pushing against my ribs on the side I had a broken rib once. It felt very painful and it took me a while to be able to sit up. Being that I am home alone because DH is working 8h away it really scared me to be in pain and not be able to move when I wanted. My cell phone was by the bed, but on the other side.

Now, I am afraid of going back to bed. LO is very active tonight and it is uncomfortable ((

I hope your DH is done working so far away and comes home soon!!!  Uncomfortable nights are the worst...babies kicking, getting up to pee, reflux, all the fun stuff.  But it will be worth it all in a few weeks!

Oh man, my baby also decided to have a dance party last night.  It was some of the strongest movement I've felt in a while.  It was definitely on the line between just uncomfortable and painful.  I can only imagine what it must have been like for you to get kicked in an already weak rib, and with your husband away.  I hope the pain goes away soon and you can get back to normal.  

I just keep telling my baby that if it really wants more room to move around, it's more than welcome to head down to the exit.
