North Dakota Babies

I'm hurting today ...

I don't know if its from being way too active this weekend or if the babe is on the move, but my lower back, hips and crotch hurt like heck today. It's so hard to get up or out of bed and walking is definitely a full fledge waddle. I'm so ready for labor to start but have a feeling I am going to be feeling like this for a while.

and I'm starting to stress because my husband is still hurt and can't do much more than a quick walk to the bathroom, kitchen, etc. so I don't know how he is going to be able to be there for me and the baby during labor and after. It is taking FOREVER with consultation after consultation to get him started with the steriod injections that should make him feel better so it could be another 2 months of him feeling this way! I don't want to tell him how frustrated I am with it because I know he wants more than anything to feel better and be able to take care of me, but I just don't know how I'm going to handle not having him 100% during labor.

  • That sucks that just when you need to be taken care of, your DH is just as incapacitated.  I guess this is one plus to living with you parents right now.  At least you will help extra help around.

    I hope you start feeling better soon!  Try to take it easy this week.

  • That sucks!  Like you said, I'm sure he hates not being able to take care of you as well.  Thank goodness you are with your mom right now, because I'm sure she is a big help. I know it's not the same though.  Hang in there!

    It definitely isn't the same, and my mom isn't being the most helpful/compassionate these days to DH or myself so it's not helping things much...but I know her and my sister will be there to help out once the babe is born, but I just want my husband back!
