Cope? I'm uncomfortable, I don't sleep well, I'm tired, but in the end I'll have a beautiful baby to show for my agony.

At the end of the day me .Dom and .Mika are the only ones that matter when it comes to a name so everyone else can think what they want. I know a little girl called pixie-lou and no-one says anything about her name and personally i think pixie is a bit more out of the ordinary then .Mika.

I'm 36 weeks along in my first pregnancy and I'm so tired al the time, almost zombie-like that I had during my 1st trimester. My back aches 24/7 and I now feel a ton of pressure in my pelvic area which makes walking for long periods very uncomfortable. I can't always sleep well at night because I can't get into a comfy position w/o it bothering my sore back and I'm constantly waking up to use the restroom throughout the night. I also experience more and more braxton hicks and those for me arent all very pleasant and I feel mentral like cramping from time to time. As for my mood, its so/so... slightly more emotional then normal but nothing extream and my appatite has increased big time, I eat twice as much as I used to. I manage with imagining my baby in my arms, and look at my babies face in her 4d ultrasound photos. For my back pain and mentral like cramping I get I have my b/f massage my back for me. For my low days that I'm all emotional I'll dress myself up nice, do my hair and makeup and take pregnancy photos of myself with my digital camera, or take long bubble baths and do some self pampering. At night to ease my back pain so I can sleep I make a bed on the couch and use a body pillow to place between my legs and wrap my body around, also use a small square pillow to place behind me on my lower back. That helps so much! We came this far, make the most out of the next several weeks! As much as I'm eager for this to be done and overwith I sometimes don't want it to be over. I sure will miss those cute little kicks and punches and rolls lol! Smile Goodluck on the rest of your pregnancy.
