DH called me a beached whale... (vent)

So I'm having a serious PITA. Literally - some muscle/ligament in my left butt cheek was KILLING me yesterday. It hurt so much I couldn't even walk at the end of the day and just crawling around to find a heating pad was excruciating. Since I'm going to have a heating pad on, I knew I'd get hot, so I removed my pants while explaining to DH how much pain I was in. He looks up at me and I'm pointing to where the pain is, and he says "Geez, you look like a beached whale! No wonder your a$$ hurts."

I am not amused. I have always been thin and do not have any problems with my weight gain which is clearly related to pregnancy, thank-you-very-much. I wanted to slap him. If you have advice about a$$ pain, please share. Thanks for letting me vent!

    That comment warrants at least two good junk punches!

    What the H was he thinking? I give you permission to slap him in the face.  You never say that to a woman especially a pg woman.

    Last night, DH told me that my calf was as big as his thigh. I wanted to kill him.

    first off- did you throat punch him?

    second- I used a heating pad and it seemed to work.

    I did not - I shot him one of those "say another word and I'll rip your face off" looks, but honestly, I was in too much pain to even move across the room to smack him! I did try a heating pad which worked some, but the moment I'm off it the pain returns at about 80% strength. I'm still sore this morning and just hoping that it won't get as bad as it did yesterday.

    What a $hit. I would have been really mad.

    For the a$$ pain, which is probably sciatica, try a prenatal yoga class. You should also ice your back since the pressure from the baby on your back is probably what's causing it. If that doesn't work, ask your doc for a referral to a physical therapist. I have sciatica even when I'm not pregnant and my PT is a lifesaver.

    I think he should be castrated. Immediately.

    If my husband told me that I looked like a beached whale, HE would be the one with the ass pain.
