Pain in the Butt

Since 2 weeks ago, I've was feeling extremely uncomfortable. I felt uncomfortable when I sit, I felt uncomfortable when I walk, I felt uncomfortable when i lie down. In short, i just did not know what to do! I believe my tummy was growing at it's peak. When I sit, i can't sit straight because her head wass pressing against my bladder and neither could I slouch because her legs were like right up at my diaphragm. But the worst of all, was being constantly short of breath. Like literally i was gasping for air!

Anyway the massage lady has been giving me air selusuh to help baby with it's transition downwards into the birth canal. And coupled with prayers, I tink my little Peanut has made her descend. Since 2 days ago, I've been experiencing lots of pain when i walk, especially around my butt, lower abdomen and V region. And I believe i'm having Braxton Hicks contractions everyday too. My tummy would suddenly harden and feel v heavy for usually a good 2 hours or so. But yesterday was the worst. I could barely walk without winching in pain! And everytime I get up to walk, i desperately need to pee. I asked a few ppl if this means baby has lowered but most said it wouldn't happen so soon, more so unlikely that i'm only 33 weeks now.

But now im convinced that it HAS happened coz last night i felt Peanut kick and guess what? She could no longer kick my ribcage coz she's lower now. I also realised today I could breathe SO MUCH better and I know I havent been taking pics of my bump but to describe it looked like i have a basketball strap to my tummy. V round and I've been carrying high. Now my bump has gone lower. So yay to that! On the downside though, i'm still experiencing the pain and i'm waddling like a duck!
