And the beginning of heartburn and back pain. Good news is it seems eating coconut oil makes the heartburn go away. I'll try this out a few more times and see if it wasn't a fluke.
I've got a little wedge that my friend Amy is letting me borrow. I didn't realize I should maybe have been using it before now. I didn't think my belly was big enough yet to need support, but my back is now telling me differently. I ordered a pillow that will support my belly and fit between my knees, it should be here Thursday! I've also been told that I may benefit from a belly band support thingy, a bit like what people where when doing heavy lifting. I'm holding off on that for now. If anyone knows anybody who used one, let me know what they have to say about it!
UPDATE:
So my SIL Sarah emailed me just after this post and said she used one and it helped a lot. The very next day I went to my weekly chiro visit and the other Dr. there is 32 weeks pregnant and she had just gotten one. She let me try it on and said as I get bigger, have Josh get behind me and hold up my belly for 1 minute. When he lets go and I wish he wouldn't stop, then I'm ready for the belly support band :)
