This baby is a pain in my butt!

My self-diagnosed sciatica was confirmed tonight. It's the only unpleasant symptom I've had in this pregnancy, so I can't complain too much. It is annoying sometimes though:

• sometimes there is no getting comfortable when trying to sleep
• getting out of my chair to walk any amount at work is not nice at all
• I spend way too much time with my left hand on my own ass
• If I am lying on my back, it takes both arms and a concerted effort to turn over.

This causes the "turtle effect": The Hottest Computer Scientist in the Universe says I look like a turtle rolled over onto its back. My limbs are waving in a vain attempt to turn myself over, because I assume I should be able to just roll over and sit up.

Cure? Um, give birth. Right, getting on that...
