Ouch!

I guarantee  that Shawn is tired about hearing this but I'd just like to write it down for memories sake.  Or maybe it would be better to forget about it completely.  I've had a pretty easy pregnancy so far.  I really didn't have any complaints until about a week ago.  I have no clue what has changed but recently if I sit down for too long and then try and stand up I am in a WHOLE lot of pain!  It feels like by pelvic bones are being crushed by this kids head!  I actually stood in a bathroom stall at church for a few minutes and cried it hurt so bad on Sunday.  So instead of sitting I've bee trying to stand more, which works pretty well except for the fact my poor feet aren't used to holding up so much extra weight and my I unless I'm wearing socks and tennis shoes my feet hurt after about 20 minutes.  See the problem?  I can't really sit or stand for too long without hurting.  Granted the pelvic pain is WAY worse than sore feet so I've been trying to suck it up but I'm not going to lie, I've been pretty whinny lately.  I've also a little bit stopped caring how crappy I look as long as I'm comfortable.  Like yesterday I exercised in my swim suit top and running shorts and then proceeded to answer the door like that.  I didn't realize how insane I looked until afterwards so I'm hoping people will give me a break.  I still have over 5 weeks to go so this may not be the last of my complaining.  I really thought I had a fairly high tolerance for pain, but this baby is making me rethink that.

I think this warrants bed rest for you, especially on Sundays :)

I agree with Jalei. Sorry you are feeling so bad. The last month is the hardest and seems to take the longest.
