I am 15 weeks pregnant in my 2nd trimester and the other day while my Fiancé was napping I was trying to get up just to go pee, mind that I do have regular back pains being that I am 21 I shouldn’t even have any back pain but the hip pain is excruciating, in the midst of getting up I started bawling my eyes out which woke my Fiancé up and he got SUPER worried at that point he started checking my hips making sure I was okay, my Aunt told me to tell my Doctor about it at my next visit which I am because lord only knows what’s actually wrong with my hips, I understand I am growing a new life and I am ever so grateful and blessed to be growing my baby inside of me but I am not good with pain and never have been and I know labor pains are much much worse than this.

I’ve not been able to walk a lot lately since this hip pain has started and I’ve been waddling like a penguin. I do stand and move around about 5-9 hours out of my day making coffee, deli sandwiches, wraps, mopping, sweeping, putting up stock, cleaning up after people and doing morning shift and night shift dishes, just to earn a shitty $200 paycheck making 10.25 an hour which my paychecks should be MORE than $200 a week, I just literally don’t have any motivation anymore to do anything I’ve done nothing but lay in bed and watch Netflix on these two days off because I can barely move as it is. 😪
