34 weeks today and dragging

Whitney

I am starting to feel almost hopeless that my pelvis will ever feel the same again. I've struggled with such painful SPD this entire pregnancy when 8 years ago with my first, everything was SO easy. Do to covid, my doctor says he can't refer me to chiropractor. I've tried support bands but my hernia is so tender and belly is so low that it just pulls at my skin. I've taken several big falls now and can't get down and up from the toilet by myself. Had to leave work early. Teaching 2nd grade at home while throwing up every hour or so from nausea that has also crippled me the last 8.5 months. And poor sweet love of mine devestated that he can't quality for time off to care for me because we aren't married, therefore not legally family. Some days I can't even stand up. My BP is insanely low and my heart beats so fast I feel like it might burst from my chest.

I hate complaining, but don't know how much longer this little body can handle it! Thanks for coming to my sad mopey TED talk 😭
