37 weeks + 5 days Discomforts
Just another very pregnant January mama awake in the middle of the night awaiting the arrival of their sweet baby and looking forward to relief from the discomforts of late pregnancy.
Tonight my lower legs and feet started aching fiercely out of nowhere (pretty sure it's sciatic related) and my left back side started aching too! I am wondering if this could be the beginnings of back labor?
Then there is of course my athsma which seems to have gotten worse not better through the pregnancy. I have to keep reminding myself that there is a huge object in my body taking up space that my lungs and other organs are not used too and that this is not forever. It's under control with the steroid inhaler and albeuterol I just hate having to rely on them. I'm trusting this is temporary.
And finally the Braxton hicks! It seems everything causes them these days- drinking a sip of ice cold water, coughing, sitting up in one place, sometimes just laying down trying to fall asleep, sometimes merely thinking about them seems to bring them on somehow!
Do any of these experiences sound familiar to my fellow late pregnancy ladies?
Looking to commiserate lol.
