Still 1 cm but my cervix is super soft the midwife said. I literally started crying in the office I am so done being in constant pain, it makes me feel like I can't take care of my daughter like I should. I can't run with her and play with her like she wants because every time I move my hips, back, lower abdomen kill me. labor I can get through I can count down the contractions I know they only last 2 minutes tops but this is 3 more weeks of not being able to chase my little girl around or pick her up and hold her or embrace her running start hugs instead of bracing myself for the pain they cause. not to mention I'm only getting maybe 3 hours of sleep a night from the pain so I am so exhausted all day. I just wanna be the mom I was before the end of this pregnancy hit.
Oh man I'm so sorry.. Can u take anything? Tylenol? My daughter will have just turned 2 also when the next one is here so we'll be in the same boat! Luckily it's cold out so u can't really be going to the park and stuff so just hang out with her at home and watch movies and color and stuff-- she really won't remember! 😘
I'm trying she is only 2 so and she has always been super smart so I just got the ABC mouse app for her so we can do that together but since she is only two most of the day consists of mama come do this mama come here random jumping and messes that need cleaning. her pregnancy didn't hurt like this but she didn't drop till right before she was born, her brother on the other hand has been dropping since around 28 weeks so my whole lower half/ pelvic region is sore as if I had been in a car accident so it's way harder this time
I'm preg with my second and worried about this too!!! I worry that I won't be able to play with my daughter like I should.. But what keeps me going is that she won't remember it, as long as she's fed and taken care of its perfectly fine, and after 3 weeks u can go do something fun with her.. Take her for a mani/pedi, and have a special day for you two... It's not permanent! It's just 3 more weeks :-) hang in there mama hopefully I can listen to my own advice lmao
that's what I keep reminding myself lol
