I would suggest a stool under your desk if you sit a lot at work. Also, you could try supporting your back with a small pillow when you sit. If you stand a lot, put one foot up on stool to relieve some pressure off one side. Switch as needed. Ask your doc about what stretching excersized you can do to eliviate some strain. Also, try not slouching. Are you supporting yourself with pillows at night? Lay on your side and place a pillow in between your knees to support hips, one under belly, one at your back, and another one anywhere else you need. I think they talk about this in "What To Expect When You Are Expecting". A body pillow is nice too, I hear. I found I got much better sleep when I started doing this with Preg. #1 and #2. I need to start doing this soon again. Not sure how hubby will get any sleep. He already takes 1/2 the bed up and I will take more than half by doing this. :P Oh, well.

Maybe I'm just standing & sitting wrong but can someone just tell me exactly how to stand/sit because I'll do just about anything at this point to not have constant back pain.R.

However, since you look so little and you are the same size as me (inch-wise), I guess that means that I shouldn't be so down. I guess I look that little too. I just don't feel it. Mabye another factor would be that we are taller than you and your hubby. ??crazywildberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06970471452212336975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36796698.post-19907866957266499272008-06-02T14:31:00.000-04:002008-06-02T14:31:00.000-04:00Ha!

I am more stretched out, etc., but it's still hard not being slightly jealous. I was always this way, though. I try believing that because I am so high-waisted the only place my babies have to go is out. I am still pretty thin everywhere else, but my belly is huge! Although I think my face is showing a little pregnancy weight gain too. <BR/>:(crazywildberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06970471452212336975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36796698.post-66198553484956768052008-06-01T15:44:00.000-04:002008-06-01T15:44:00.000-04:00No, the first baby shower was done by a church gro...No, the first baby shower was done by a church group I met with for 8 weeks earlier this year. They totally surprised me on the last day. It was really sweet.<BR/><BR/>As for the picture I posted, it was just a few weeks ago. Yes I really am that small but growing 1/2" every two weeks.R.

What was the difference between the two? <BR/><BR/>If you want to post a pic of your new dress, I will be sure to post compliments and add lots of wows and oohs and aahs. LOL! The other picture you posted was nice, but it didn't seem all that recent. Or, I am insanely jealous that you are that small!crazywildberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06970471452212336975noreply@blogger.com
