Pretty much. My mother suggested ice, but I think I'm sticking to my hot water bottle and the flopping for now.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Ice? On your cootchie? OR your hips? Yeow/BRR.
'Xactly!
Thus the sticking to flop. Which I am about to go do for the night, as it happens.
Night, Erin! I've missed you!
Night, sweetie.
I have what I shall describe as generous thighs, and I like elastic-top thigh-highs. I get mine from, of all places, Sears.
The only ones that have every stayed up on me were made for some WAY taller than I, and they came up to my hips.
But they chafed.
I skipped and skimmed, but here's a tip for PMM (hope it's not to late): Decent Exposures, the best bras I've ever owned. They come in all sizes and will grow with you a way, and if they don't fit immediately the company will adjust them free of charge. You could buy the nursing bra style now and just carry on using it. And I believe they're in your neck of the woods. Good luck!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FAVORITE MSBELLE!!!!
Plei, when I had two weeks to go, I went on a series of business meetings in Cinci which required a lot of walking. As we were touring the P&G building, I got the pubic bone separation thing. DAMN that hurts. I swear I thought I was in labor. All the men in the group turned very pale and one ran to get the car. He drove like a bat out of hell to get us back to Columbus, his fists very tight on the wheel. I swear, that pain was worse than any contraction I had (well, almost).
As for nursing/maternity bras. I didn't find one I liked until I went in to see a lactation consultant (they fitted for bras there). Once I had one of those on, I threw the rest of mine out. I'd get the number for a LC and see where she recommends for nursing bras and getting fitted.
I didn't and don't have the large size issues with pregnancy/nursing bras, but I can say that once you are at a stable size, it is well worth it to buy a really well-fitting bra even if it costs a lot. Buy two and do a lot of laundry (you will be doing this anyway), and by the time they give out you'll be done with them.
I'm still up a cup size 16 months later (though still nursing), and I'm wearing my later pregnancy bras now.
