When to have my prenatal massage?

I have a gift certificate for a prenatal massage and now I just have to get it scheduled. I am just over 35 weeks- when would you schedule it for?

  • Why wait?  I'd go ahead and schedule it now!

  • Ummmm. . . today?

    Seriously, I've had 2 already and I'm seriously overdue for another one. I'm going to get one next week and then maybe one more if I end up going all the way to my due date. 

    Married 08.06
    Started TTC 05.08
    Me: Stage II endo, borderline high FSH
    DH: perfect
    1 lap, 5 IUIs = 4 BFNs and 1 c/p
    2 IVFs, 2 FETs = 1 BFN, 1 c/p, 1 ectopic and finally a sticky BFP in May 2011!

  • I was worried there might be a cutoff for when I could go. 

    Thankfully I'm not too sore, but massages always feel good, so maybe I'll try and schedule one for next weekend!

  • I agree with PP, schedule it soon. Ive had 2 already this pregnancy and plan on scheduling my next one for Wednesday (Ill be 38 weeks). Enjoy it, they are AWESOME!
  • Massage has been amazing for me. I would book your asap since a) there is usually a wait time - especially this time of year; and b) you never know when you are going to be too uncomfortable or go into labour.

  • you probably shouldn't get a prenatal massage, I hear they're awful.

    you should probably just send your gift certificate to me. Wink

  • lol mrs.larry ;) Not sure I'm that naive! 

    Calling now to get me in for next week or the week after new years. Can't wait!

  • I have a gift certificate too and I set it up for next Monday - I'll be 36 weeks, I can't wait!

    I figured it might be nice to wait longer if I am going to get more uncomfortable but I sure would be sad if the baby came early and I missed my chance!

  • Do it now.  I have had a few and I found a pregnancy spa here that gives the most amazing prenatal massages.  I went for one today, however, and I was so uncomfortable that I was unable to enjoy most of it:(  I have been having a lot of trouble breathing this week and on the massage table I kept feeling lightheaded and for some reason I had a few bouts of extreme nausea.  I had to keep repositioning myself and it hindered the massage. 

    Their tables and set ups are extremely comfortable, so I can only blame this on my discomfort that I have been having lately.  I was so bummed to spend $100 and not even be able to enjoy most of it.
