And so we're into the 8th month.
Bernice has been suffering quite a bit from lower back pains that she wakes up in the middle of the night groaning in pain... I know because I wake up from it as well :( Upon talking with other moms, she found out that it's also a common occurence so just be prepared to wake up more in the middle of the night to massage your wife's lower back everytime she asks. I could just imagine the pain... I remember that the only 2 times in my life that my lower back hurt so bad was walking around Singapore and Hongkong. So I could only imagine feeling that kind of pain daily that goes on for weeks. Another thing is because to start with, Bernice seems to have a weak back, which she says came from her college days in drafting as an interior designer so I guess that and the pressure brought by the baby can really be a double dose of pain :(
On another note: She's been back to always feeling sleepy. Doctor says it's just part of the whole process. I've heard from a bunch of people that the last tri sem can be much like the 1st where your wife can experience the sleepy feeling from time to time or exhaustion. So if you're still in your 2nd trisem, enjoy it while you can :)
