34 Weeks

It's crazy that I'm at 34 weeks already. We went for the check up and she looks good. All the usual.

The only sucky thing is me! I was laying on the sofa yesterday at nap time and went to roll from my left side towards the right to check the time and felt a pop in tail bone. (My tail bone issues kind of went away for a while and came back about 3 weeks ago. Ow.) Last night was horrible. I can get into a standing position, but going to take a step is when it hurts like a MF! I was telling the nurse today, and the next thing I knew I was being checked to make sure everything was okay up in there! Everything is good, still where it should be. I was told to take some Tylenol and do the heating pad. She also suggested physical therapy. I'm going to try the other things first and also our indoor pool, in hopes of giving it some relief. It's not going to be possible for me to take any time off from work (especially since they haven't even started looking for a replacement). If it's not better in the next week or so, I'll obviously re-evaluate then. I was telling Chuck that delivery doesn't scare me so much now that I've felt this pain, because at least when I'm in labor I'll get an epidural! He started laughing.

I was up every couple of hours through the night. The best way I could try to explain it to Chuck twas to say that when I roll over or try to take a step it feels like my hips are coming together to grind into my tail bone. SUCKS something awful. It's almost over though! Yay!

There is your update. At least she is doing well, and her heartbeat is strong. I couldn't ask for more, everything else will end!
