29 weeks - how long more??

the back is acting up again and i think it may be because it's not used to the additional weight (i am assuming i put on weight!) that has been going largely to the tummy area. already the hubby is saying "you're big!" and it's been more difficult squeezing into my non-pregnancy swimming costume. 

i am trying to remain optimistic that the back will re-adjust to the new normal soon but a part of me is despairing that i may have to live with the pain (and pain meds - suniton - that don't help much!) and a bent-over posture for the next 10 weeks. how?!!!

am still visiting the pool but it's been harder to fit in as many laps as before because swimming with a heavy belly just does weird things to one's balance even in the water. plus the pain was a bit too much to bear when i tried swimming today so i landed up just standing around in the pool and enjoying the weightlessness that allows me to stand up straight. BLISS!

am relying on physio, my exercise ball and swimming to get me through the next 10 weeks!
