Thanks for sharing your story ladies! Back pain is the worse at this time. I am not that big with this pregnancy, and I am on my 3rd girl. So I can't imagine as all the other mommies that carry a big baby.But we all have to stay positive!

I am 35 weeks and 3 days and work retail. I'm on my feet the entire time except for my lunch break. Sometimes my back bothers me horribly, and I'm to the point where I don't want to bend over and pick something up for fear I won't make it up without throwing out my back! Stay positive ladies. The end is near!

I am at 35 weeks and 3 days working as a paraeducator and cheer coach. I am struggling to get through my days as well. I drive 40 minutes to work an 8 hr day and then have practice,  basketball games, or wrestling meets almost every night. The hardest part is that now I can't ride the bus with the team because I am way too uncomfortable and so I have to drive to all of them. Sometimes I don't get home until 11:30pm. My body screams at me on those nights. Thank God I have a wonderful man waiting for me at home with lotion to massage away some of the aches and pains! I also have a standing appointment with my chiropractor every 2 weeks because my hips have alignment issues.

I'll be 35 weeks tomorrow, and I'm still working 12-14 hour shifts as a nurse in a busy hospital also. I go the the bathroom constantly and hurt all over everynight and my feet and legs swell like crazy, my doctor told me to keep moving and drink lots of water, I wanted to punch her. I feel like I complain a lot but I'm just so uncomfortable all time, I'm ready for baby to get here!
