18 weeks 4 days

I cant believe its been almost 2 weeks since I've written. I'm almost 19 weeks now. Its going by so fast, only 1 more week till my ultrasound. I cant wait! I hope the baby isnt being stubborn and will work with us where we can find out the sex. LoL. I've been doing good myself. The sickness I think has finally subsided. It could be the begal and creme chesse I eat every morning. I dont really know but I'm afriad to stop eating it incase thats whats keeping me from being sick. LoL. I'm getting so big you can definatly tell I'm pregnant now. Im getting all the great things that come along with getting bigger also....the stretching pain, the stretch marks, other pains. But I guess I cant really complain the present in the end will be soooooo worth it. One thing that is bothering me is I've always had trouble with my hips hurting but since I've been pregnant its gotten so much worse. In the beginning of my pregnancy I felt something pop in my hip and its been excrucating pain every since then. Somedays its so bad I cant walk on it or put any pressure on it. It hurts all the time everyday even if I'm laying down or sitting down if I move one little bit it sends shooting pain through me. It almost brings me to tears everytime. I told the doctor about it at my last app but he didnt really say much. I wonder if theres anything they can do. I dont think they can do xrays or anything and I dont think your suppose to go to a chripractor when your pregnant. I might just have to live with it till I have the baby. I might be in a wheel chair before I have the baby. LoL. The last few days I set with a heating pad on it then lastnight my husband was like should you be using that. I didnt even think anything about it when I started using it. But he had a good point about it raising your bodies tempature and thats not good for the baby. So needless to say I've been scared to death every since then. I hope I didnt do something so stupid and hurt my baby. I got out my book 'what to expect when expecting' and it gave contridicting information in one spot it said its not recommended to use a heating pad during pregnancy but in another it said for pain to use a heating pad wrapped in a towel for 15 mins at a time. Does anyone know? Im not going to use it again no matter how bad I hurt but I want to know if I hurt my baby. Well I guess thats it for now. Besides the hip thing I've been doing good. I think about you girls everyday. Hugs Monica.
