in... pain.

so it's been just about three weeks since my pelvis started hurting.
i've done numerous things to try to relieve this pain... yoga, extra stretching, sleeping differently, going on more walks, soaking in a warm (lets be honest, hot) bath just up to my hips, hip rotations, chiropractor appointments.... nothing has helped.
thankfully, my doctor is back from her vacay this week and i have an appointment on tuesday to see just what might be happening "down there" or what is gearing up to be happening.
i've never been in this much consistent, nothing-you-can-do type of pain, so i'm eager to hear what my doctor says.
my cousin, the nurse, said that she's had a couple patients that have had this severe pain and it's just my pelvis opening up to get baby ready to descend. well, it's still quite a bit early, so i'm hoping that's not the case. she did also say that there's not too much i can do at this point--- urgh. like i said, i'm hopeful that my doctor is going to have some more information for me, cause this REALLY sucks.
also, i've started to have numerous braxton hicks contractions... greeeat.
...some really intense ones that knock me almost off my feet.
i'm not ready baby, stay in there a little bit longer. like a few weeks so we can at least 100% finish your room.
