Week 35

All last week I felt exhausted but it didn't help when coming down with a winter bug it's made it impossible to sleep especially with pregnancy pains on top.

I saw the midwife yesterday and all okay although baby is laying to my left side which explains why it hurts to lye that side and walk as baby's head is resting on pelvis so I've been told I need to walk more to help baby move down which is easier said than done as I find it painful to walk with the pressure.
Good news is I have 5 weeks to go, I've
now finished work and its the countdown to Christmas :)

My Pregnancy Progress

Week 21

On 29th August week 21 my little baby started giving me proper punches and kicks inside my belly. Even my husband could feel it which was nice to share.

Over the past few weeks I have been getting pains in my left leg when I walk or stand for too long but it took a turn for the worse this week my bum and thigh had shooting pains and the aching was horrible and now that keeps happening, I found it hard to walk the other night. I read that it could be sciatica, oh what joy's this pregnancy is bringing me, people keep telling me that it can get very painful. 

I'm also finding it hard to breathe and not just at night, I'm feeling so heavy and the pressure is just so uncomfortable. 


I'm worried that if I'm feeling so uncomfortable now how will I be in a couple of months. I am now just into week 22 so only 18 more weeks to go.

Has anyone else had sciatica? If so what did you do to make it easier to cope with?
