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?

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!!
@tyannej same! My lower back is killing me and I'm already starting the waddle walk. It's too early for the waddle walk!! I've been trying to lift weights and keep my back strong, I don't know what's going on!

I'm team waddle walk already too @natleilynn. I have thought about getting a support band of some kind.

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.
@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.
one of my friends got whatever band they sell st Motherhood and she swears by it! I haven't broke down and got one... I'm not mentally prepared for that yet....
I'm here feeling like baby has an anti daddy agenda. Baby will have the ultimate dance party in there but the second I reach for hubby hand so he can feel him too then the baby gets suddenly shy
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.
