Re: Weekly randoms 26.06

  • Holy round ligament pain is in full force. Like I can barely move without that sharp pain! Anyone else? 
  • Loading the player...
  • Back to work today after a weeks vacation. I hope it doesn't suck. 

    It also looks like it has been dead around here while I was gone.

  • @tyannej plus one on RLP. Every. Move. Moving slowly makes it a little better. 

    @feeislove i totaly forgot to adapt this thread to all the non canadians lol my bad! 
    @sparks88 dead indead. Hope its not a permanent situation lol
  • Heyyy Nov!  I came back a few times the last few weeks to jump in but it's been so quiet!  Saturday ticker change hasn't happened the last 2 weeks and FFMC I didn't start one because it made me sad to think of starting it and have it be more like diary entries and hardly any conversation.

    @tyannej no RLP but I have the low back ligament pain and ugh.  Is anyone else looking at taping for ligament/belly support?

  • @virginiaham I've read a lot about taping but haven't been able to find someone to show me how to do it properly.

    Do you mean using Rock Tape (fancy athletic support tape)?

  • @melarowan and @virginiaham I found this:  https://rocktape.com/wp-content/uploads/instructions pregnancy small.pdf?_ga=2.93438173.1141476894.1498537723-466337919.1498537723

    It also looks like there are a bunch of YouTube videos on the various applications of kinesiology tape.

  • I'm glad I'm not the only one. It's getting worse. And my lower back is like WHAT IS GOING ON! I'm a pretty small framed person so this baby is throwing my body out of wack! Totally worth it though!!
  • I'm on the verge of waddling too and will most likely get a support band. I almost look like I was when I was 9 months pregnant with DS :/ it's going to be a long last few months. 
  • @curlyq423 same!! I found a bump pic at 5 months with DD....and compared it to now...and I am HUGE.

  • Can anyone recommend a good support band? There's so many types out there, I can't seem to choose one. 
  • @OliveOyl2014 I actually just asked this in my previous BMB group and got these brand recommendations: Maternity Fit Splint and You Babe Belly Boostier.

  • Thank you @Brambles23!  I have to get my SO to do this.  I picture myself all awkwardly wrapped with 18 yards of wrinkled tape if I tried myself.  I'd been thinking about finding a physical therapist that does kinesiology. Something about having a pro do it, at least the first time, is appealing.  But, I really don't want another doctor to deal with right now.

  • I bought this one when it was on sale and I really like it. It's not crazy complicated like some of the ones that go over the top of belly but it gives me the support I need and is smooth under clothes.

  • @natleilynn SAME!!!!! My equilibrium is like TF is going on! 
  • Summer break rocks of awesomeness!  Driving back and forth between swim practices and gymnastics makes me feel like a taxi mommy.  Which makes me giggle.  I have been baking so overall everyone is happy.  Getting larger by the baked goodies but happy none the less. 
  • @wintercho SAME! She's getting a little better but I have figured out that if she stops moving and I poke her and hold my breath for a second she'll start moving for daddy! Lol!!
  • @winterecho, @tyannej : i started feeling him around 18w... It got stronger around 20/21 weeks... But his hide and seek capabilities made it so that daddy was only able to feel his kicks around 23/24w!! 
  • @virginiaham I'm a Saturday check-in too! I felt the same way about starting one and having the fear that no one would reply :( The group was always pretty small anyway so I thought maybe everyone had moved on from this group. 

    Let's do one this week! 
  • @itsamurphything so glad I'm not the only one who felt that way.  Let's do it, even if it's just us!
