Growing Pains.

When I was sixteen years old I had a hernia on my lower right side, near my pelvis.

I subsequently had surgery, and my Doctor treated the hernia by patching the hole in my muscle with a thick, plastic-like mesh to keep it from forming again. 

I often feel this mesh digging into my muscle; mainly when I run or work out for long periods of time.

Its a pain that I have learned to deal with over the years.

Well....baby is hanging out in my pelvic area.

Not only are the stretching of my ligaments purely uncomfortable, but I often feel the mesh digging into my muscle more than ever, sometimes so deeply that it causes me to hunch over like an old lady, hold my pelvis and wince in pain.

At my last appointment I spoke to my Doctor about it.

He did some feeling around and its definitely nothing of concern. 

However, it is something I will just have to deal with.

He said the good news is - at about 32 weeks the pain should pretty much disappear.

(I hope he was joking)
