    Over the last week have felt a bit beaten up inside by the baby, kicking something down there which causes me to take notice. I don't remember kicks from baby causing me to wince.

    Is anyone still sleeping on their back at all? I had been for short periods but now at 30 weeks get too much lower back pain to do it.

  • jedi - yes, a lot more of the baby movements are falling into the "uncomfortable" bracket rather than "exciting or cute"!
    Re sleeping: I'm kind of angled slightly half-way between flat on back and on side as my hip pain really does not let me sleep on my side. I have a pillow behind me which helps support my back.

    I had an anterior placenta with my first so definitely feeling more this time round! Baby seems more lively today, might be because I am sat still for longer being at work.

    I am a side sleeper so doesn't really bother me but I am waking up in the morning with back ache so wonder if i have been sleeping on my back a bit.
  • I have an anterior placenta so don't feel that much. Having said that I get really hard kicks every now and again. I really enjoy having a bath as it makes her more active. She also responds when DH talks to bump.

    So tired today. Weekend was spent doing chores. I did however manage to grab two maternity nighties in Primark reduced section. Only £3 each and seem to be fairly decent.

    Was in quite a bit of pain today at work, in the buttocks and above the pelvic region, called midwife helpline who said it was nothing to worry about. Have spoken with a few Internet friends and I may have spd. It seems to get worse through the day, I have a desk job which doesn't help. Sitting on sofa at the moment and it's not too bad but worried about how it will be tomorrow at work.

    I have started to use a pillow between my legs last night as the pain in the buttocks was keeping me up, this helped.

    Krustylouise - I'm pretty sure I added you on the 20th Feb as I posted in the FB group at the same with the names of the ladies I'd invited. All of the others have joined and I can't send you another invite as it says you've already been invited when I try. I've even asked one of the other admins to try adding you but they got the same message. Have you checked on FB for notifications?

    Hi weesmiler!

    Oh no Jedi, hope it isn't too bad sounds painful.

    My rib pain has returned sitting in an office chair again after the weekend but have finally got my back support so that is helping.
