36 weeks pregnant and soooo uncomfortable?

Q: Actually im 35 weeks and 6 days. close enough… well anyways, this is my second pregnancy, i have a son that will be 3 on halloween. And i am due November 4th. My husband works from 4-12 am so im alone with my son the entire day. Chasing him around, carrying him, doing chores and also working full time myself, ive managed to pull a muscle in my groin and my doctors solution to this was to prescribe me muscle relaxers. But, at the advise of my mother, i chose not to take them. Also, my first son was only 4 lbs, which was a breeze, this time around my doctor says i can expect a larger baby, maybe not significantly larger, but no less, larger. I myself, am 5’1” my husband is probably no taller than 5’4”. I have THE worst hip and back pain. I can feel the bones in my lower spine grinding together and along with that come SHARP back pains in my lower back. also, the hip pain i have is paralyzing… literally.. there are days when i roll over to get out of bed, stand up and the pain is soo bad that i just freeze and fall back down. it also happens when bending over, squatting or you know, just doing things using my hips. So, my question is, with all of this, what are your expriences. such as quick solutions, early delivery, scheduled induction.

A: Bear with it, and your time will come.My uncle weighed nearly 10 pounds at birth. My mother was premature, and weighed a little over 2 pounds. My grandmother always told my mother the delivery with her hurt just as much. Labor is labor.With my first, once he descended into my pelvis I couldn’t lift my right leg to even put on my underwear after a shower. I walked for the last month with a cane, and my doctor refused to induce until I went past 40 weeks. So far I’ve had better luck with my second pregnancy, but odds are unless there is medical necessity this might just be something you’ll have to deal with. i’m expecting the same discomfort to kick in any time now. I hope it doesn’t, but I’m prepared for it just the same.Good luck!

Hubby may be out of work, but expects me to sit at home and do all for his children, is this fair? Help!?

Q: My husband has been having all kinds of pain lately in relation to the right side of his chest, his back, some down his arm and near his stomach when he eats certain things. He is doped up on pain meds and relaxers right now from a doc and two antibiotics for a bacteria in his stomach called H. Pylori. He is taking amoxicillian (antibiotic), clarithromycin (antibiotic), oxycontin (muscle relaxer), cyclobenzaprine (pain), and nexium(heartburn). His work wont let him go back to work unless he doesnt take the pain med which he cant cuz he gets pain so bad and almost keels over. He has been in and out of the hospital numerous times and they find nothing. They have run tests on him for heart, gallbladder, lungs, liver, you name it. He did have a scope and they found a hiatal hernia but the doc doesnt beleive that is hurting him and that it can be treated with nexium. I believe he needs to be refered to a bigger and better place but he keeps fighting me on it. I think that it will only be a matter of time before he finally stops being an *** and listens. These medicines are making him an angry nasty person. The doc says that he may have to sit at home and treat the bacteria and that may make him feel better but of course my husband is anxious to get back to work and will do whatever it takes. Well, I am perfectly capable of working. I finished school to be a teacher but there are no jobs right now but i can obviously sub but if we have his children like we do every other week i cant take his son to school, i can only take his daughter and our son together to day care before i get to school. We have to drive his son into town which is about a 15 min drive the same time i have to be at a school to sub. I suggested we have his two kids on the weekends and he is throwing a fit and thinks i should sit at home cuz i wont make much anyway because i got to pay day care. we certainly dont have money to pay before and after school care for his son plus his daughter and our son together. Well, i wouldnt have to pay so much if he was capable of watching them but i dont think he is on all those medicines. I dont think he will be able to take his son to school either. His son cant ride the bus cuz we live in a different district than his mother and of course everything is conveinent for her but not for us….i think my husband is being unreasonable when I feel that we need to be able to pay our bills and put food on the table and he only is going to be getting checks for about half of what he normally makes. I got school loans to pay for too. I would like to try and sub as much as i possibly can. Child support is not an issue since he has papers saying that custody is 50 50 with no support but it can still be 50 50 if we take them every weekend and all summer or a reasonable amount that the mother agrees to. Anyways, I am also pregnant with our second child together. I do not need this stress. We need to pay our bills. What do I do? Please help??!

A: if the pain pills aren’t taking away the pain, he needs to see a doctor at a bigger hospital. it does sound like a gall bladder problem. and if a dr thinks a heria isn’t bad then find another dr that knows what he’s doing.

My husband may be out of work, but still expects I stay home and do all for his children..is this fair? Help!!?

Please help??!he is getting come money from work because he works in a union…but its not enough to pay our bills and we have no relatives or friends that stay at home (all of our friends work). anyways even if we did have relatives to watch the children, they wouldnt be willing to drive a kid all over kingdom come to school and back. its not that i dont want his children, but yes i can sub every day and i need to be able to be available. I live in a big school district area where there are lots of schools around. and even if i dont get called a lot i am perfectly willing to get another job. i want to work and i feel it is my duty. his children are welcome on the weekends and i dont think thats to much to ask for. he would still see them a significant amount of time and not have to care for themif the ex girl friend (NOT WIFE) would let us have the kid go to school in our district it wouldnt be so bad cuz he could ride the bus and problem solved but for her week that would be an inconvience cuz she’d have to drive him in and back. UP a **** CRICK EH:?

A: I have kinda the same situation. The best advice is to do u!!! Life is too short to try to my him comply with simple demands. Since he is incapable of running the household because of his situation, then I would absolutley take the steering wheel and roll on. Don’t let his medication determine what happens with your financial security or your mental well being. Medicine does not make u completely unable to participate in daily life. I know its hard because you are pregnant and it can be rough, I have 4 kids with my husband and he has 2 other children, but I let him take care of their situation. U know. He needs to be the one to say what needs to happen to the child from the previous relationship. And if the mother can’t or won’t comply, then don’t make it ur problem. She needs to be sensitive to what’s going on also. Team work makes the dream work!! You have a household to maintain and she is not paying your bills, so make him step up and say what needs to happen.
