When i was about 5 months pregnant, i worked at a day care and i ended up hurting myself, and could no longer work due to 3 herniated lumbar disks on my lower spine. I am now 37 weeks pregnant, and not sure how much more I can handle. My back has hurt through out the whole pregnancy, but now its getting worse. I am having a hard time sleeping because of all the pressure that is being put on my back. But thats not all, I had an ultra sound done last Monday and they said that the baby was already8lbs and 6oz. Yes i know that the weight can be off by a pound but that is still a pretty big baby. My Dr. is concerned about his weight but doesn't want to induce before 39 weeks. I have a 3 year old and I was induced with him at 39 weeks due to his size. He was 8lbs and 10oz. However his head was 14 1/2 inches round. An inch bigger than his shoulders. My other concern, was that all the research that I have done on herniated disks and pregnancy, every one had a c-section. What should I do???
