Everything with my body was fine up until the start of this week when I started experiencing sudden pains in my buttocks and hips!
A bit of googling tells me that there is a high chance of PGP (Pelvic Girdle Pain) due to the hormone relaxin which is released towards the end of pregnancy in order to loosen the ligaments surrounding the pelvic joints to prepare the body for labour and delivery.
If that's the case, then I'm really suffering from the pain. Every step I take hurts and don't even get me started on getting up and out of bed. It feels like someone is constantly stabbing me in the hips 24/7 and the only relief I get is when I lie down and not move. Even turning to lie on the other side hurts so much.
Planning to see a Physiotherapist next week right after I see Dr. Kamaljit for my 35 week appointment. I'm thankful though, that the pain is only centred around my back hips and no where else! Touchwood.
In other news, it's been a long, hectic yet fulfilling week last week, starting with the Ikea family day & the mad rush to prepare for the Baby shower (which was a success! And many many thanks to my awesome friends who helped out with the decor and games) and then the ROM right after, finished off with our 2 year anniversary yesterday.
So basically this is how it went down..
13 Nov: Char arrives
14 Nov: IKEA cheras family day + Baby shower prep till 2am
15 Nov: Baby Shower
16 Nov: ROM + Char leaves
17 Nov: 2 year anniversary

It was so crazyyyyy - possibly the craziest weekend of my life but at the end of it I'm super thankful that everything went well and smoothly and that I know I have great friends around me who ill cherish for the rest of my life!
Little AJ is such a blessed boy already with all the gifts and love he's been showered with! These last few weeks will be spent building up his room and getting ready for mums arrival in KL on the 4th Dec.
I've got so much to say about 2015 already! I can't wait till the New Year comes round to start reflecting back
