Dr. Ally’s Pregnancy Blog- Second and Third Trimester

Second Trimester

I could live in the second trimester forever! I had tons of energy, not a ton of weight gain; and my clothes still somewhat fit. I went on many hikes/camping trips, and I didn’t even feel pregnant. The only symptom that was even remotely annoying in the second trimester was heart burn. I only had heart burn at night, and it got worse towards the end of the second trimester. I was eating healthy because I had energy to go to the grocery store and cook every night. My body did not ache and I hadn’t really gained too much weight.

Third Trimester

​The third trimester was by far the worst trimester for me. The physical discomfort and the emotional anxiety really got the best of me. I would say the emotional aspect was worse than the physical. It was almost like I was obsessed with my pregnancy. I really couldn’t get any work done because I was always googling every single symptom I had to see if I was going into labor. I watched many YouTube videos of live births, but nothing seemed to sweep the anxiety away. The anxiety of becoming a parent, the anxiety of going through labor, the anxiety of having anxiety and not getting any work done all weighed on me. I would lay awake at night with anxiety about anything and everything. I found it harder to get to sleep due to anxiety, and also harder to stay asleep due to physical discomfort.

The physical symptoms were continuous. I had middle back pain from my breasts growing so much. I did not have to get a new bra; they just got heavier, not so much bigger. I had severe heart burn all day long. Tums seemed to do the trick, but I really wasn’t a fan of taking any over the counter drugs. Tums was the only medication I took the entire pregnancy and I tried to take them sparingly. The lack of energy and motivation was the worst. I had no desire to work and when I got home I had no energy to cook or clean.

Towards the end I really just wanted to pregnancy to be over so I could meet my little girl. I had Braxton Hicks contractions on and off through the entire third trimester. The contractions were painless and just felt like I had a tight waist band on for a few seconds, and then it would release.

I went to Club West Chiropractic for the first time for a dislocated rib, and Dr. Ryan was able to adjust it back into place, and reduce all of the pain by 110%! When I walked in for the first time, the staff already knew who I was. Since then, I've gone back several times and have been greeted by my first name ever since. They are all so friendly and professional. I'd definitely recommend Dr. Ryan and Club West Chiropractic to all of my friends and family!

My husband and I have been seeing Dr. Ally and Dr. Ryan for several months now and we are really happy with our experience; they are professional, yet personable. Their treatment plans are very reasonable, taking into consideration what they are seeing going on with your body, but equally what you are reporting as being an issue and the extent to which it is an issue.

Doctor Ryan and Ally are great, as well as the front desk staff! They are a great medical team always making everyone feel welcomed. After a sudden car accident, with everything going on- they went out of their way to make therapy easy, convenient and professional. I will continue my care here, and would highly reccomend this chiropractic office to friends and family.
