Sweet Mother! I seriously think I have PSD. My pubic bone/area has been KILLING me for the past few weeks. It hurts to walk up an incline/stairs, roll over in bed, get out/in bed, lift my legs/bend knees to bring my legs up, you name it, it hurts my lady parts. I'm just now 21 weeks tomorrow (Thursday). If this is, indeed, what I think it is, and there is nothing I can do about it but sleep with a pillow between my legs, then I am in for a loooooooooooooooooong pregnancy. I'm already sleeping with a pillow folded in half between my knees/legs at night, and it's not really helping much. It's still killer to roll over/flip sides in bed at night. Not to mention, my lower back is starting to hurt too, especially at night when I'm rolling over or getting out of bed to go on one of my many pee breaks. I can't lay on my back without getting the super urge to pee anymore. :/ I just want to enjoy this pregnancy, and all I'm doing now is complaining and whining about how uncomfortable I am and how my pain I'm in. I've taken only a handful of Tylenol. I can count on one hand, probably, how many I've taken. Trying to just tough it out if I can. I'd just rather avoid putting any kind of meds into my body right now.
On another note, my "20 week" ultrasound is tomorrow, too. I am a little nervous about it, since we have not gotten an ultrasound at the dr's office since 8 weeks and haven't had any measurements taken either. I hope she's growing at the rate she should be, and that she measures where she needs to be at. It's nerve-wracking. But, I am excited to see her on the screen again. Even though I pretty much can anytime I want at work.
I've started feeling her move more. Sometimes I get a handful of soft, little jabs/movements at a time, and other times it's just once in a while. Hubby still hasn't been able to feel anything. I guess it's still kind of early for him. Hopefully it will happen soon. My belly is also starting to seem more round and protruding. I guess I'm looking more pregnant to other people. Stretch marks are starting to make their appearance. Lovely. I started rubbing some of the Palmer's Stretch Mark Lotion on my belly and hips in the morning after my shower. Sometimes I do it again at night before bed. I know it's not going to keep them away, but maybe it'll help some. Blah.
I think we've picked a name. Just haven't had the nads to post it on Facebook yet. I'm still afraid I'll change my mind, or mostly that one of the bajillion other girls I know that are having girls will jack it from me, then I'll be pissed. Seriously. Maybe I'm stupid but, I don't care. It's too much of an uncommon, unheard of name for someone else to steal it before my baby gets here.
My shower is planned for June 22. Seems like so long away, but it'll probably be here before I know it. It doesn't seem like we are already in the 5th month either! I've gotta get us signed up for the classes we want to take, if we are going to take them, by the end of this 5th month. The classes would be scheduled for the 7th month, so I guess I better get on it.
