we just had our last ultrasound before our sweet girls estimated arrival on the 17th of september, and she measured at 5lb10oz! she looks so chubby already😆

i started having an intense backache yesterday, my lower back just felt so pressured and tight. then i started having braxton hicks, and i noticed every time right before a contraction, my back would get a sharp pain and then even tighter- to the point of it pulling on and hurting my ribs. i was absolutely exhausted by bedtime. i slept for almost 10 hours and when i woke up my back felt the exact same as it did when i fell asleep and i was still SO tired.

i’m getting ready for bed again and my back and ribs are so sore. nothing is making my back stop hurting. i’ve tried tylenol, laying in various positions that have helped before, and i’ve been drinking only water or juice since yesterday. it’s killing me and i’m starting to wonder if it’s possibly back labor starting before real labor, and it’s starting to make me nervous not knowing when i could start to labor for real. i’m so exhausted right now from this and i couldn’t imagine going into labor already feeling this way 😅😂
