How did the doctors appt go today? Any news at all? Well mine went fine. The booboo turned in the right position. Her Heartbeat was 144. He did an exam and said all the cramps, backaches and BH have done nothing to my cervix. Its still thick and closed. Well thats my update. Your shower is this weekend...are you excited?

I see doctor tomorrow morning so we will see about the schedule of things. The rotating the baby just sounds way to stressful on her so unless they can convince me otherwise I am thinking NOT gonna happen. As for the inducing early I am trying to get him to induce earlier then 39 weeks but he seems to be stuck on that number. I am feeling a little better today so I hope to be able to hold my head up a little higher today!

The websites are probally right in everything they say but wait til you talk to doc and come up with a plan. You may just need a c section even though you don't want one. It may be the only answer. I will talk later.

hey! i just read your comment you left on my sons picture thank you!

do u know what your having?

shenah03 - Thursday, 7 Feb
i'm a little jealous that you're being induced b/c this baby is big but i swear he likes the tummy he is in and probably won't want to come out!:) Ditto on the work thing - I've been off work since week 24 b/c my pelvic bones were spreading so much and i was experiencing sharp pains. so worth it though now that we are so close! can't wait for my sweetie to show up! good luck with everything!

Oh gees girl you have it pretty rough! I am sorry to hear about the SPD. Hang in there and let me know how your doctors appointments go tomorrow. I wish they could have told me yesterday how much the baby weighs, but I enjoyed seeing him again. I too am feeling overwhelmed by only 5 weeks left untill baby is here! I have so much to do still.

Thank You very much for your comment.

shenah03 - Wednesday, 6 Feb
Saw your posting on week 33, i have SPD too and the doc said to take small amounts of tylenol, try heating pad on low, and also to sit in a luke warm bath. so far, none of these tips have helped me all that much but some days are better than others. i feel the most relief when i lay on my left side with a large pillow between my legs. back rubs are great too :) good luck!

Hey I had my ultrasound this morning. The tech doesn't do the 'readings' so I don't get to know how much he weighs untill I go back to the doctor next week. But the plus side, everything else on him looks great. He has 10 fingers and toes!!! He was too cute he has chunky cheeks and the cutest pouty lips, it was amazing to see him again. He has chenged so much from 19 weeks. ANd he is head down which is good. So you got to find out immediately how much your baby wieghs? I hate waiting I wish I knew.

Thanks so much! I will have to do some research into yoga/excercise. It must be hard being on bed rest...but think about it, this is the last time that you'll be able to 'relax' in bed! 'Cause once your little one comes, you'll be so busy you'll wish you could relax in bed (ha, ha). Take it easy!

I was looking up SPD. Ouch! I am sorry. There appears to to be some sucess from chiropractic. I am sure you have done the traditional stuff...pillows in between legs, pain killers, trying not to use your pelvis bone. Wow. So you have to do some research and hopefully you will come out with some relief for this one and maybe even so the next pregnancies won't be so terrible. heres the site I was looking on. You probally looked at it already. http://www.plus-size-pregnancy.org/pubicpain.htm#Traditional%20Approach
I know it says plus size but thats what the info was on. I guess we are plus size though with all our baby weight. hee hee... You got to do something before your shower next weekend. I encourage you to really do research on delivery with spd. There are sites that talk about positions. Good luck darling. Thanks for all the encouragement you are always giving me. I have been praying all morning and suddenly I am feeling a lot better. I am going to hold faith that I will be as good as possible today. :) have a great day sweety!

I just read that you have been diagnosed with
SPD, I'm only 8.3 wks pregnant with my 2nd, but already feel pain, I feel like I'm limiping when walking and especially if I have to turn a corner it really hurts! I've not had it this bad before...what did your dr recommend? Any exercises or stretches? your input is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I am doing good with my diet. I had my baby shower Saturday and my birthday is actaually today. I had small piece cake at my shower, I just made sure I ate lots of veggies and good carbs with it and my numbers were fine. They tried to send me home with more cake and I had to say no, that would be too much of a temptation for me. I met with the diestician yesterday and he said my numbers look perfect, just keep up the good work. It is hard but I make myslef walk a lot and if I am eating something yucky I just try to eat really fast. I can't wait to go back to normal, this scheduling your meals and testing blood is time consuming!!! I have an ultrasound tomorrow to see how big the baby is, I will let you know how that goes. I have a question, is the ultrasound harder to see the baby since he is much bigger than he was at 19 weeks when I had my last one? I was just wondering. Glad to hear you are doing good too, not too much longer now!!!

hey there I have spoken to my doctor about this to and she recommended the same thing and I thought to myself are you for real but I am counting the weeks down because like you said turning around in bed is awful and sometimes leaves me in tears. I was thinking that since this is my third maybe the baby is lower and that could be causing it. Now all I can think about it labor and how more painful it is going to be during that time. Oh yeah I didnt find out what I am having this time. My youngest is 5 1/2 so I figure we can make this preggo even more exciting by not finding out. I honestly wish I would not have found out with the other two either. Thanks for telling me more about this pelvic thing than my doctor that is why I LOVE THIS SITE!!!

I had sciatica problems about a month ago and my ob recommended seeing a chiropracter- if you have that option then I would def recommend it!! I went once and felt so much better!!

Ema uk - Monday, 4 Feb
thankyou for your comment..and congratulations..you'll have to keep me posted..xx

momof2.5 - Monday, 4 Feb
Hello just read your post about the pelvic pain and I am right with you. I have heard of that nerve but it is usually in the back and butt not in the pelvic area so I am still at a loss as to where the pain comes from. The bigger the baby the worse mine as been.

Jo-Mama - Monday, 4 Feb
I have had sciatica pain and it was in my butt, not my pelvic region. I had a massage and went swimming and it feels a lot better now.

Hi. I had sciatica my last pregnancy & it was a shooting pain from my lower back down my butt into the top of my leg. I don't know if that helps, but thats what it was like for me.

lilylu - Monday, 4 Feb
Hi There, reading your post, it sounds as if you have SPD to me! Theres a section on this sight about it, you should give it a read and see if it sounds anything like what you are feeling!I have SPD and what you described sounded just like it!! I Also suffered with sciatica with my first pregnancy,and that was a sharp pain starting in my back and traveling down my leg! Really painful! Hope i have helped alittle,good luck xx

mommyinthesky - Monday, 4 Feb
Yes, it is sciatica. I injured my back several years ago and have it under normal circumstances, but pregnancy aggravates it a lot. It does sound like that is what you have. There are many stretches that can be done, massage helps a lot, and I have a back brace that I wear occasionally, I sleep with a snoogle pillow and have been able to at least control the pain. There is a muscle called the psoas muscle that gets inflamed for me and when it goes into spasm, it hits the sciatic nerve and the pain can sometimes run all the way down into my foot and at it's worst I could hardly walk. Another thing that has worked for me in the past, though I don't know why, is that my sciatica is worst when I am lacking a B vitamin with iron. However, your pre natal vitamin has iron I am sure, but I had to take a Slo Fe supplement for anemia and it ended up helping the sciatica as well, though I really don't know why.
