Under Pressure

Yes, I am feeling it now! Liam has been head down for some time now but this week I have really been feeling him pressing down on my bottom parts. It's a little painful at times but mostly is just an uncomfortable feeling.

I'm in the bathroom more and because he is on my bladder so much I have to shift around to get him off my urethra so I can empty my bladder completely. Also because if his increased presence down there my bowels feel full all the time too. Luckily I have not had any constipation during my pregnancy. I guess the fiber tablets and prunes are really doing the trick.

I've been feeling pretty good up to now and pretty proud of myself for having such a good pregnancy. Some people really have a hard time being pregnant and I feel like one of the lucky ones that don't feel miserable all the time. This week has shown me a glimpse of how truly uncomfortable this can get and with each new ache, pain or twinge my temper gets shorter and shorter. I am also getting more tired. It's hard to get through the day with out craving a nap. I am really wiped out by the time we get home from work. It's a good thing we only have 4 more weeks to go.

That's right! 4 more weeks.
