Days Events

Not much has changed.  My feet aren't as swollen anymore because I either go barefoot, or have on my trusty flip flops.  Went to the doctor  yesterday and he says he can 'feel' babys head from my internal exam.  Nice.  But why does it seem every since that exam, that he's made some kind of tunnel for the baby to descend even more?  I have never been in so much pain from walking in my life!  It feels as if the baby's head is constantly burrowing deeper and deeper into my pubic bone.  PAIN!  Ever tried sleeping sitting up and occasionally leaning to the side?  Only to wake up with a backache, crotch ache, hip ache...Not fun.  Junior seems to love that pubic bone for some odd reason.  I feel movement in all places, from his hands, feet, elbows, knees, all that.  But that head?  Is staying put or moreso, moving down for the Kill!  I cringe every time I have to stand after sitting for a while.  It's like he says...'she's up now!  More room for me to delve deeper into the abyss!'  (sigh) I digress.  I am extremely happy to be fortunate enough to have another child.  I am indeed.  But I don't know if it's because I'm older, a little heavier or just my luck that I feel pain most of the time.  Good news is, I've skipped going to my 2 week appointments and my Dr. has advanced me to 1 week appointments starting with my first Stress Test next week!  YAY me!
