Comparing Pregnancies

It is so weird how two pregnancies can be so different. I am grateful that I haven't had as many issues this time. Isaac had me in the hospital a few times (overnight twice) before he arrived. But Isabella (so far) hasn't given me the same issues. She is definitely going to be a bigger baby than Isaac was. But I could tell that by about week 30 - probably sooner. I carried Isaac VERY low, but Isabella is pretty centered. Isaac moved quite a bit, but Isabella is EVERYWHERE. I swear one day she was trying to reach for my spine. That was a weird feeling. And I don't remember having any back pain with Isaac. I envy the pregnant women I see who are even bigger than I am who are walking around normal. I have a waddle / limp walk that I've been sporting for a while now. A few weeks ago I think I pulled something, or pinched something on the right side of my lower back. And it sure is tough to stretch that part of my back out.
