Eliselouise - maybe it's the site of implantation and it's burrowing in further and is causing hurts. I had that too.

Greenslw - glad the visualisation (or exhaustion) worked for you! Maybe I should try that. I made the mistake of spending a couple of weeks sleeping in an almost upright position and have caused quite a deal of damage to my lower back as a result. Unfortunately, last night, I sleep flat again (on my side of course) and have the worst night sleep since sleeping upright! no more than 2 hours in a block. I was getting up to 5 hours at a time when I was sitting.

Hey, has anyone (greenslw in particular) been having dreams about having already had the baby or about actually having it? Nearly every single night I'm having those dreams. Last night was particularly amusing, my sis (who is really grossed out by pregnancy - long and very funny story) was going to be with me through the whole labour (HA!!) and wasn't grossed out by it. But what was even more weird, was that my tummy was kind of shrink wrapped around the baby so you could see every outline and crease of the baby but not it's actual body if that makes sense. Like vacuum packing but packed in a stomach. Initially she was engaged and I was getting ready to start pushing then I felt a really sharp pain and when I looked down the baby had moved and was then breech. At that point she was looking at me and doing what babies do when they kind of poke their tongues out cos they're hungry. It was the weirdest thing because I could see all the outlines but I couldn't see the actual baby as such. I think I must have had braxton hicks at the time and that was prompting the dream.
Otherwise I'm going well. Though lots of tummy stretching pains and the odd braxton hicks games.

Erybery time flies! Ella is already nearly 4 months cool. And Megsmum getting closer and closer to 6 months old... glad to hear you're both enjoying it so much.

Cherished, tinar, twinsis, and I'm working off memory here so I can't remember even the half of you all!! Stay happy, stay safe
