So, I have been feeling pretty good, although exhaustion has really hit me over the past few weeks - especially in the afternoon. Today, was like a "Welcome to the World of the Third Trimester" initiation for me. I feel awful!
1. My lower back decided to start hurting. A lot! Like a constant pain pushing on my lower back with no relief in sight. I mean, I literally have been trying to find a comfortable position on my side, back, standing, sitting and to no avail! It is making it hard to do anything - work, walk around, lay down, sleep, yoga. I actually went to yoga today which I think may have made it worse. What surprises me is that I have had no back pain until this started and it feels so debilitating that I don't know how I can function if this keeps up. Is this normal for 30 weeks?
2. On top of it, I feel lots of pressure in my belly. Not sure if the baby is just growing rapidly now or what but there is a lot of action going on down there.
3. I am tired - today I slept for 3 hours on top of sleeping until 9 AM today. I do think I am fighting a cold or something as I felt very weak and achy today. But it was a day where I just could not do much....how do women do it who have normal jobs?
I leave for St. Louis Friday morning for a shower there, I hope I am feeling better!
