Pregnant daughter driving me mad.

This morning I've woken up looking like the leaning tower of Pisa. The last couple of days I've been trying to tidy my garden up before Winter comes and my curve in my back has twisted round so 1 side is straight and the other side is curvy. I've tried to pace myself to no avail. My daughter is 3 weeks from having little Gracie but wants everything done like yesterday, I know she's nesting but how do I get her to slow down as I'm suffering??? I've up my Gabapentin from 2 to 3 a day.

Thankfully next week I've an appointment at the doc and one at the hospital so I can escape for a while. I know I must sound awful but I fed up with her saying she's bored. This morning she's just painted the radiators in the lounge now she's tidying the kitchen cupboards again.

I'm suffering with my emphysema today because of the smell of the paint as well as my back being bad. Sorry for the rant. ☺

Don't Worry that's normal to suffer from Back Pain during Pregnancy I can sympathize with your situation as I am suffering from a Sore Back too. Hope Your Back Pain Gets Better Soon. H

Nesting sucks. I remember it well. Enjoy this time of her doing all the housework and you slow down . If she wants it done then let her get on with it. You go lie down or go for a walk. But you must try to empathise and remember how you felt at that late pregnancy stage too. Hugs
