When I was pregnant with my first and kind of complaining at the end of the pregnancy, my mother-in-law reminded me that I shouldn't hurry things along because the baby is easier on the inside than it is on the outside. That was really good advice and after I had Sam I learned just how true it was! That being said, I'm so over this! Yes, the baby is easier now than he will be on the outside, but I'm tired of hurting. Now, in addition to everything else, I'm having really bad back pain. My lower back is out of alignment and making my SI Joint compressed/inflammed/misaligned...whatever happens to it, thus causing really bad sciatic pain. I went to the chiropractor this morning and he said it happens to a lot pregnant women at the end of their pregnancy because of the relaxin hormone, growing belly, and poor posture. He tried to adjust me, but wasn't able to do much. My muscles are too tight and spasmed. Luckily, it's naptime for Alison soon, so I'll just put Sam in front of a movie and then I can lie down too.

one day at the end of my pregnancy I couldn't get out of bed because my hips hurt so bad. I had to wait for Adam to get home from work at 8am to help me get up.
