Lots of back pain?!/Venting

So my question is simple...  How many of ya'll have been having terrible back pain constently?!  I'm 37weeks and I'm still small, meaning my belly (mesuring around the widest part of my belly) is only 44inches around, and I'm not sure if it's because I have a long mid-section, or what not, but this is also my first baby.  Any who, has anyone else been experancing this kind of pain?!  Not it's not constent, it usually starts in the late afternoon, early evening, but continues until I fall alseep, which sleeping at this point... It's a joke... so what have ya'll been doing to combat the pain... and being able to sleep?!  Please I'm despret!

Okay now I know this is just me venting, so I don't take it out on my hubby when he get's home from work, but here goes... three days ago I came down with a terrible cold, and it's beginning to settel in my lungs(I'm coughing up flem constently, I've lost my voice and most of all when I do talk my throat kills me, not to mention I know my nose is constently draing down my throat).  All of which suck, also I had my doc. apt on Wen. and when I came home I was petting my dog and I saw all of these little back bugs crawling around on his head, and I was like WTF these can't be feals!!!  Well sure enough they were!!!  So now that after I had just cleaned my whole f-ing house I have to do it again!!!!  Oh and I'm pretty sure that hubby wont be helping me out with that one because he's been spending so much time at work... which is right next to my house, but still, he just sits around with his boss and has a beer or two, which is frusterating, because he sees his boss every d-amn day!!!  WTF...

And well he's a tow truck driver/mechanic, well about a month ago the got a car with all sorts of car audio in it that was signed over to the shop from the owner.  *sigh* Well my hubby had his heart set on getting the two 12 inch speakers and the amp out of it.  So all of Wen night, when i wanted/needed to talk to him about the plans with the baby comming and everything else, well he was at the shop until after 11pm wireing them into his car.  So I was frusterated at that, and then come to find out that he didn't even get the amp to work.  Well i told him that we really don't need an amp at the moment, well what does he do last night, goes out and buys a 120 dollar amp!!!  Which in his eyes he justifies it by putting in on OUR BEST BUY CARD!  And I was like well i thought we were paying off the frige (that we originally had put on there back in Nov. when we moved into our house) and then we were buying a stove.  Well I guess that all went out he window as soon as he saw an easy way to get his car pimped out.  *sigh* I'm just so frusterated with him!!!  Not to mention he hasn't bought a single thing for the baby!  Nore does he even seem intersted in anything that I say about baby or do towards the baby.  And yesterday I wanted him home so we could talk about what we were doing... well after he bout his damn amp he had to put it in his car!!!  So I sat at home... doing nothing but needed/wanting to talk to him, but he spent pretty much all night putting the amp in.  *sigh* i just wish that he could or would help me a little bit!!!!  But no cleaning and organizing the whole house before baby comes/to get rid of the fleas will be up to me!  I just wish that my hubby would help me out a little bit... Is any one else going through this, where hubby wont help out?

UP DATE:  So Friday Night I started my whole cleaning or nesting of my whole house and I was really suprised because hubby actually helped out, not alot, but enough that the house is clean, carpets are vaccuumed and deep cleaned!!!  So I was estatic about being able to finish it all in one day, well a day and a half really.  And even more excited that hubby was helping me, even at times it seemed like he was just back tracking what I had just done, but it was all worth it!  And I'm so happy that it's done and today I can lay in bed and rest because my back and legs are sore and I'm sick.  Even though Hubby really wanted me to go with him to this car show in Illinois, but I'm huge and we did that on my last weekend off and I was miserable the whole time... so I'm home alone relaxing :)  Maybe going for a walk with my two dogs later today... hopefully I'll make it that far!  (I have a pomerain-poodle mix and my hubby has a huskey-german shepard mix) wish me luck.  And I hope that everyone is having a good weekend!
