ftwr +1 to the sore spots! You mean your skin right? I was just asking about that last week. Have you found anything to help? I use belly butter and coconut oil, but neither helps the painful spots. Fortunately they usually only last a day or two and then stop again for awhile. Eventually they come back though - I'm guessing things are just growing quicker at those points. akwild - agreed, the motorcycle helmet one seems very out of place and huge!

When is your due date? How far along are you? 9/20, 34w4d
How big is baby? Butternut squash / Savoy cabbage
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Blue
Any Upcoming Appointments? 36 week check-up next Friday
Symptoms: Fatigue, lower back/hip pain, calf/ankle/foot swelling, so many Braxton Hicks
Milestones: Nothing really
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I've been having so many more Braxton Hicks the past few days. I aim for 80-100oz of water a day and by 5pm Friday I was only at about 20oz... Being at all dehydrated is definitely a BH trigger for me so I was having a ton Friday and while they've slowed down from Friday as I catch back up on my water intake they're definitely still increased from what they're normally at. They're so annoying. I was also dealing with a general uncomfortable feeling/inability to get comfortable most of yesterday so I'm wondering if baby is in a new position too on top of the BHs.

Feeling pretty good! My leg is much better and I'm sleeping better too. Just the standard heartburn and trouble moving around.
Milestones:
On Wednesday it'll be one month until baby!

I need to get my butt in gear and start getting some clothes and stuff ready for baby now that I'm feeling better. Maybe later this week I'll be brave enough to look at the to do list thread lol.

Fortunately they usually only last a day or two and then stop again for awhile. Eventually they come back though - I'm guessing things are just growing quicker at those points. Yes! It's weird. It's like my skin is sore and deeper too. It's mainly the top of my bump where his foot rolls around all day when he's stretching. It seems to go away over night but by mid afternoon the next day it's back. |

It was terrible! |

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I experienced rage yesterday while at home with my DS so that was not good, I’ve never felt that before. Not sure if it’s GD related or 3rd tri related, but I just bubbled over.
Also managing anxiety for upcoming csection and trying to get everything in order before hand. Just starting to feel overwhelmed.

How big is baby? A bunch of carrots
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Team Green
Any Upcoming Appointments? OB check up next week with GBS swab. Then weekly after that.
Symptoms: Pelvis is gonna bust in two...or perhaps four. Lower back pain kicking up. Sometimes my right leg goes all tingly down to my toes. Hands are stiff and painful in the mornings (this is around the time when carpal tunnel started for me with my first). Tired. Those painful spots on my belly. Some pregsomnia. Dry mouth. Perhaps slightly less moody and emotional!! I think this has to do with actually accomplishing some things around the house and on my to-do list.
Milestones:

Hugs mirabelle. Take a deep breath. You got this. Everyone I've known to do an RCS said it was much more relaxed and calm than their first cesarian. I hope it's the same for you too! |
