Q: Back Pains

i have to complain a little. my back is totally killing me right now. i've had a muscle spasm in my back before and it feels like i have another coming on right now. i have to keep putting heat packs on it and getting rich to massage it. it also feels like the baby is trying to escape through my belly button. my tummy is so far out i guess that is what's making my back arch and tighten up. i guess these are just normal signs that i'm approaching the end of the pregnancy so i'll take it. just felt like i needed to whine to someone other than my poor sweetie, he's overwhelmed enough as it is.

Muscle spasms in your back? That would not be fun. I have only had spasms in my calm - charlie horses. Your lucky that your BF gives you massages. I have to pay for mine Sad I am sure my husband would give me one "if" I asked but then I feel it's purposely bad, so I don't even bother. Part of the reason why I deserve a .Doula who is a massage therapist Smile

I whine on here all the time....we deserve to whine a little!!

if your back pain comes and goes throughout the day time how long there is in between them, because when i was pregnant for my 1st son i had that and i didnt know it could be contractions in ur back but then my mom told me to time it so i did an dit was 5 mins in between and ocme to find out it was contractions the whole time because i had back labor which is the worse so if thats what it ends up being God bless you because it is painful!

after all that complaining i slept like a log. i don't know what rich did to me with all that massaging but i only got up once last night. o.n.c.e!!! that never happens. i was afraid to move this morning cuz i thought my bladder would explode! i'm usually up at least 4 times a night. i gotta complain more often!! Laughing

oh yeah, it's not contractions. i entertained that thought briefly last night, but i think it's just from the baby dropping and me having bad posture. i had read in my baby books that it could be a sign of impending labour. i'm not gonna start counting the minutes yet, it'll drive me mad!!
