I'm Currently Feeling: | Cramp and mood swings! I must say I'm begining to endure those third tri ... quirks? No that's not the word.. PAINS! And, although they're driving me completely mad and making me a moody b*tch to say the least, I actually still much prefer being in this tri than the others.
Anyone else getting cramp? If I lay on my right side I wake up with cramp all up my right leg, so I switch to my left side and you'll never guess what happens.. Yep, cramp in the left leg. I'm constantly switching. Not to mention my LO's head is resting on my pelvic/pubic bone and causing me more pain than I'd like! Oh and can you say BACKACHE?
Still, excited for labour and counting down. Can't wait. 63 days is definately not long. I had abit of discharge over the weekend but nothing worth noticing really. Not as panicy over little things now.  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | ouch toria, Have you tried tonic water? make sure it has something called quinine in it as it will really help if you have a glass about an hour before bed.......tonic water tastes shite to me though but does work.
I've only had cramp twice so far....but probably more to come!!
I do get this weird thing though......its like my legs are twitchy and feel like electric shocks going through them. Its doesnt feel like sciatica though as i have had that before.....anyone else get this annoying twitchy electric thing?
It really makes me mad and moody and i generally swear a lot when i get it....good job ricegrain doesnt know what im saying yet!!  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | The cramps and aches only seem to get worse the further along you are  and I'm always a bit crabby and sensitive because of it. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | You're allowed to be a moody bitch
I get cramp a lot through the night too, and I can' reach my toes to pull them back so I keep having to get Matt to do it, to his delight! lol
Backache is friggin awful as well.
10 weeks to go here  Half of me can't wait.
Water is really good to keep by your bed, my MW said that cramps might be caused by dehydration.
Hope you feel better

I'm Currently Feeling: | I am so miserable it isnt even funny. I have 4 weeks to go and I hope I make it. My docotr has been having me take a tylenol pm at night, but that really does not help. My skin is itchy and uncomfortable. I cannot lay on my left side. Thre is so much pressure on my left side of ribs and back, same spot front and back. It hurts almost constantly, but worse if I lay on left side. I am so excited to see my little girl--Sarah. This is the longest month. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Yes, definitely got twitchy, itchy, electric legs at night. Braxton-Hicks are getting much stronger and longer, it seems. I was pretty crabby yesterday. I'm ok today but that might be because my family is still at work or school  |
