ouch...

Well, the days of pregnancy bliss have come to a quick end! I can no longer walk. Nope, not kidding. Apparently, the still nameless child decided to drop very low and in the process has caused some significant damage to the tendon that holds my two pelvic bones together. So, the bones are no longer working together, which makes every movement quite painful. He, however, is quite comfortable and doing well and ready to come at his own convenience.

I went back to the doctor today and they said it's too late to be able to do much about it. They would usually try steroids or physical therapy, but said by the time either of those would start to work, I would have already had the baby. So I have medicine, but it doesn't do much. I don't have to stay in bed, but really can't do much else anyways. (And to think I just went shopping for some warm weather clothes, and now I'm stuck in my pjs all day!) I go to the doctor again on Thursday to discuss the possibility of an early delivery.... I'm now in favor of that, so we'll see how that goes. The doctor I saw today said the earliest they would consider inducing would probably be the first part of next week. Of course, he could always come early on his own, which would be fine too.
Oh, and I'm sure you can all guess why there's no picture to go with this post.... yeah, it's scary!
