Kicking...and me Screaming

I love feeling my baby move, and he moves around a lot. There are times that I wish he would settle down just a bit so I can take a nap, but for the most part, feeling him move is great. Now that I am 30 weeks and he is getting bigger, there is less and less room for him. Because of this, there are times where it is hard to breath because of where and how he is resting. This will only get worse as time goes on, and there will be no relief until the baby moves down right before I am ready to give birth. I thought this was going to be the worst part. Turns out I was wrong.
Since Saturday near the right side of my breast-plate I have been feeling some pain. I thought at first that it was from my bra. I thought it was giving me a bruise, however when I looked to see what was going on, I couldn't see the bruise. Didn't think too much of it until tonight. I still have this pain in the same area. I can't wear a bra because it pushes down on the spot, and not wearing a bra is uncomfortable, and my breast is resting on the sore area. I am now thinking that the baby, who does like to sit high has given me a bruised rib or muscle, or something of that nature. While driving I felt him kick that same sore area. I called the advice nurse who said to try laying on my left side to relive the pressure, and hopefully get into a position where my breast is not putting any pressure on the sore area. The nurse also made a note to my doctor who will be calling me tomorrow. Hopefully I do not have to go in to be seen, but I'm sure she will want to see me. I must say that it is painful. I really didn't expect for my son to bruise me BEFORE he was born. Funny how that works huh? I'm wondering how many women have had this same thing happen to them?
Another wonderful part my being pregnant is the heartburn! Oh how I love it! No matter what I eat, or how long I sit up, I will always get heartburn after each meal. I must now stock pile my house with Rolaids, and keep some with me at all times in my purse if I am out and about. Just another thing for me to try and remember to bring with me. I have a pretty good size list of the things I need to bring with me. Wallet, Keys, sugar monitor, and log, sometimes my make up bag, my cell phone, my organizers, and Rolaids. I know that doesn't sound like much, I know most people carry tons of stuff, but when you forget your own name and common words, remembering all this stuff can be a little challenging. At least I can still get a decent night's sleep at the moment, although I do have a feeling that that is coming to a close end. I'm going to bed later and later for one reason or another. Heartburn, the pain in my ribs, the baby moving around for hours, Kevin's snoring, can't get comfortable because my shoulders are sore from laying on them, or the fact that I can't breath because of baby and my position. There are times when I have to sleep on the couch. I feel bad for Kevin because he loves cuddling with me, but I just can't get into a good sleeping position in bed, and the couch is the only place I can sleep.
Oh man! How my rib hurts, I think I need to get this pressure of my breast off the area. Til next time! Thanks for reading!
