He's doing 'Lord of the Dance!'

[Guest guest]

I'm still a little concerned about his weight (and the fact that I'm

smaller than most think I should be at 35 wks) and size, but this

baby is tearing my abdomen and ribs to peices!

He isn't kicking that often, but rolling, stretching and jabbing the

crap out of me to the point of pain and taking my breath away. Just

last night my husband tried to keep up with the movements and the

baby lost him every time. At one point (I was breathing hard and

complaining about SOMETHING being in my back just below my ribs) he

put his hand under my back and yelled " OMG! That's GOT to hurt! "

Sometimes it looks like I have a softball in my side...

He doesn't calm down at night either. It took me 20 minutes to turn

over at 2am...the pain and muscle cramping hurt so bad!

It wasn't like this with my son.

Is anyone else this far along with such adoment movement? Everyone

keeps telling me that he should be big enough to not move so

much...but this kid is on a mission!
