30 days or so
So I'm down to about 30 days. I have this horrible itching sensation on my stomach 24 hours a day. I haven't found anything for relief. I just feel the urge to scratch my stomach constantly. I've tried cocoa butter, analgesic spray and ointment. Did anyone else experience this? Any advice? I also have constant tingling and numbness in my right hand. I guess it is related to the swelling. I'm ready to get this baby out and move on to the next challenge of being a parent instead of a "host."

Not sure about the itching, but I had tingling and numbness in my right had for almost the entire second half of my pregnancy. It is definitely a result of the swelling. I ended up wearing a wrist splint overnight to try to relieve those symptoms...I lost a significant amount of dexterity in that hand. It drove me CRAZY.
The good news is that my hand went completely back to normal after Noah was born.
You're in the home stretch, friend! Hang in there!
Hang in there! Those last few weeks are nothing short of brutal. Remember it is all in preparation for the the next stage...parenthood!!!
