Rainy Day!

Rain and thunderstorms here today. It's quite humid too which I am not having a good time with but it's not as bad today as it has been recently.

A few weeks ago I posted that I had "bloody show" when in fact it was just some spotting since I'd had an internal exam that day. Yesterday I had the real thing while we were at the movies but I didn't let it interrupt my night :)

I had terrible back pain around 5am this morning, but my OB had told me that Nathan is facing forward instead of toward my back so he's really pressing on my spine. My first son did the same thing and I think it may have to do with my retroverted uterus but I haven't talked to my doctor about that, it's just a hunch ;) It's never caused me problems before and I'm really not too worried about it, I'm just hoping I don't have extreme back labor like I did with my first child! The back pain has lessened today.

Everything else is good. I'm having a lot of pelvic pain and pressure, and some cramping but otherwise doing fine.

I'll update as necessary!

  1. I have a retroverted uterus too. I heard that face up can cause a lot of back pain! Are you getting an epi?? They are great!

  2. I was hoping to go without pain meds but I haven't ruled them out completely! If I am induced with pitocin then I'll probably go with an epidural for sure.
