Tuck's to the rescue

[earthkid]

Tssssssssssss is the sound I'm hearing ! Yep, I have a freakin' hemerroid (hemi, if you please)! I can't even believe it, had my first one after dd was born-understandable, and now #2 shows up before this baby is born??? My body is so out of control all I seriously can do is laugh :, or cry, or keep my Tucks close by.

same here! I could have written the same post! Acupuncture did the trick for me and now I"m 39 weeks and no pain... thank-goodnes because I think the hemi pain is worse than labour pain... mmmm maybe not!

I feel for you. I have the absolute worst hemi of my life!! It is so freakin painful. I actually decided to go to the doctor the other day as absolutely nothing was helpful and I figured it was thrombosed and needed to be lanced. Unfortunately I waited too long and it is necrotic and there is nothing that can be done for it until after I give birth.

She gave me some prescription strength cream but it isn't helping a huge amount and I can't really sit at all.

The stupidest part is that I am not even constipated. But the baby's head is very low in my pelvis- we can't even feel it when palpating anymore, just the shoulders right above the pelvis. So the guess is that the head is pressing on something causing it. Never mind the pelvic pain it is causing...

I am so ready to give birth. Baby can come whenever he/she wants!

I have to say I'm really happy that they don't seem to be much of an issue this time, but OH MY... the last time? Whew!! And they were worse after the birth too! But fortunately they went away... I hope they go away again this time too, the little bit of them that I have right now...

Yonit - OUCH OUCH OUCH!!! That's all you need right now on top of a big head in your pelvis!!
