Okay do any of you feel like at this point your pg is dragging. I'm 21 wks and 2 days and I feel like July is so far away. I love that I'm pg but with all the complications I have had during this one I just wish the delivery day was alot sooner than the middel of summer.....I would love to hear from those of you who feel the same.....

AP- I am 23 weeks along and growing pretty impatient, can't wait until July comes. Also I work 12 hours shift moving around a lot, so by the end of the day my lower back is technically killing me, don't know how long I will be able to keep working but see what happens we need the money.
Crysi- I know somehow the both of us will be fine. We will hold our lil guys. I truly hope the weeks start picking up. I'm sorry for what you are going through. Are you on any special meds or have to see a specialist. I have to see a perinatologist. It was so scary at first but now I know that my lil man and I are in good hands. How are you feeling?

I'm 20 weeks on the nose and wish it where July/ August. I have a complicated pregnancy due to heart conditions and am terrified about the birth & its effect on my heart. And I want to hold my little man of course!
Tiger- If you can't work all the way through really don't over extend yourself let your job know it's just too much on your body. With my first I stopped working a month before he was born. I'm a hairstylist and I was on my feel all day I had really bad edema and could barely get my shoes on and could not cut hair due to the carpal tunnel and swollen hands. I was a mess. After he was born I stayed at home for 5 mos and itched to get back to work but my hrs were so flexible I worked 3 days a wk. This baby I will probably go back in the fall when the kids are in school etc. I'm so grateful for my chiropractor try it out. As for as big as me I have big babies no matter what I weigh starting out I get huge. I was 127 when I found out I was pg with this one now I'm 181 and he is probably 2 lbs by now so yeah I get big for my big babies. That stinks I would love to see belly pics. Thanks for your support! Have you picked out names? I'm glad your pg is moving along and not giving you any headaches I remember you had some minor issues at the beginning I'm so happy you are having a nice and normal pg. Have a great wknd I will ttyl....

Hey AP, I'm still working full time until june 26th when the holidays begin. I'm a school teacher of year ones. They are very demaning on the poor body. I don't know if i'm going to make it till then! The hours and expectations are too much :0( I am planning on taking 18months off when bub is born, before returning to work. We have to play it play ear and see how we are going with finances. I really would love to be able to afford to stay home until all my children are in school but that is just dreaming!
I have been seeing a physio, using heat packs and taking panadol for my back. I might try a chiropractor.
I'm not as big as you but this is my first and they say you don't show as early with your first. I can't download pictures to my laptop because of my work contract as it's school's laptop. I need to get a cord for my camera so i can download some photos at home on my home computer - it's just getting to the shops etc!
I'm glad everything is coming along well for you! Don't go back to work until you know your ready. You and the baby is all that matters :0)

No I'm not. I have had such a complicated pg that there is no way I could have. All of my kids are in school so I cut hair it's a very flexible schedule I can work around dh's I plan on going back to work as soon as I feel recovered. How about you? When are you planning on going back? I go to a chiropractor you should look into plus my dh has hands of gold so he is always rubbing my back for me. You should look into it if it gets bad make sure to take a tylenol. How big are you now? Where are your belly pics...LOL
