I am studying for an exam I am taking tomorrow. This requires me sitting up for extended periods of time, which compresses my whole midsection. I get extremely uncomfortable because I cannot breathe with the ease of the pre-belly days. This rings true for sleeping as well.
The required side sleeping is getting increasingly complicated due to the fact that, in preparation for pregnancy, the hormones dissolve the (drawing a blank for the medical word) connectivity between the hipbones so they can widen and separate and allow a baby to pass through. So, I get stabbing pains in my hips when I sleep on my side. Sounds like fun, huh? I am going to have to find an alternative, which may be sleeping in an upright seated position...but then we get back to that nagging breathing issue....
Even though I cannot help but enjoy these times when Olivia is safe and is having all of her needs met inside me, I cannot wait to get some more room back in there. Of course, then I will probably be sleeping even less due to the needing me to meet all of her needs thing...
