PAIN

All right, this is a complaint post...

With Evie I don't remember being in this kind of pain (or having to waddle when I walked) until the last couple of months, and by then delivery was in sight! I definitely remember feeling like my pelvis was seriously just going to fall apart every time I walked for the last bit, but I was so close to the end!

Now here I am at 15 and a half weeks and I already have been suffering from terrible sciatica and symphysis pubis dysfunction for a while now :( Which means that basically, every bit of my pelvis hurts when I make just about any movement. Just walking is pretty painful, but having a toddler means that I spend most of my day lifting, carrying, crawling, and getting up and down off the floor. It hurts, but with a toddler there's just no other option.

I'd like to see a chiropractor and see if there's anything that can be done to help, because so far the internet has no other suggestions besides taking a hot bath and not moving so much... If that doesn't help then I'm really afraid of how I'm going to get through the next 5 and a half months without needing a wheel chair!!

I know each pregnancy is different, but I didn't expect this! I kinda feel like I went straight from 1st trimester misery to 3rd trimester misery, without that glorious respite in between. I guess on the bright side, the horrible rib pain that plagued me with Evie has been minimal this time around...

Yay for the little things, I guess, haha.
