You BUM! You lucky STIFF! Geez, I've been putting up with a rump ramming
into my ribs on a regular basis for a good several weeks already! :)
I'm not looking forward to having my bladder crowded out, but I *am*
looking forward to having my lungs and ribs back some when the baby drops.
As for getting up from some positions -- I need more and more room each
week to get myself up off the floor. I almost didn't make it last night
because my knee had gotten stiff. :P Getting out of bed is an
interesting proposition sometimes, too. (Do you need a lot of pillows
packed around you in various spots to sleep comfortably?)
