Ugh.
I am so ready for the three day weekend. While this week has not been a complete suckfest, it hasn’t been great.
Monday, I called my doctor since I was still in pain. She told me to drink TONS of water (more than I already drink, which is a half ton) and stay home and rest. So, I took the day off and it really did help. I’m still a little sore when I walk, but not like before. Baby H is moving around in there more and more. I actually adore his kickboxing moves and smile every time I feel him roundhouse my kidney. The only downside is he kicks my bladder and I feel like I’m about to pee my pants. I also feel like I have to pee every second of the day! My bladder must be a comfy place to hang out.
Work hasn’t been too bad. I’m in the midst of organizing a large event, so I’ve spent lots of time emailing and on the phone. With my legs propped up. The cankleage is at a minimum right now. However, usually by Friday I have Stay Puft Marshmallow Legs, so we shall see.
I thought the pregnancy appetite was coming on last week when I gladly ate my weight in Mexican food one day at lunch. But alas, since then, I just get fuller faster. Tonight for dinner, I had a little salad and some pita chips and was s-t-u-f-f-e-d. The pita chips were really, really good too and I wanted to just keep eating them forever, but I decided making myself vomit probably was not a good idea. Hmph.
Such are the woes of a first world pregnant woman.
Ugh!!! So thanks for getting the Ghostbusters theme stuck in my head, lol.
Glad you are feeling better and that you are getting to sit with your feet up at work- it will help the swelling a lot.
Yeah, I shoved a step stool under my desk (I hope no one has been looking for it!) It’s not the most comfy option, but it’s better than the alternative for sure.
I used a paper box under my desk- when they took it away, my CPU became my footrest. Actually it still is…
Box isn’t a bad idea…I might go on a little hunt tomorrow.
Is it the horrible pelvic floor pain? I’ve had that since about week 24 ish. I still have it. It’s usually the worst when I get up or roll over. On the plus side, it means you’re getting ready to have lil man out. Bright side. 😉
Nah it was really bad round ligament pain. My belly has been doing lots of growing, which is great, but it’s really doing a number on those ligaments!
Ah. I had one particularly evil round of that. It was early on and while we were shopping at Costco. I wanted to die and cry and curl into a ball. You have my sympathies.
