T-minus 8.5 hours until my first prenatal massage, not that I'm counting or anything 
Anything I should be aware of going in? I'm hoping I don't fall asleep on the table and miss the whole experience.
You might also enjoy...

Haha enjoy! When I fall asleep, I know it's a really good one!
Don't be afraid to let them know if you're uncomfortable in any way. I had one place keep me on my back but propped up (no good) and I made them put me on my side instead. Ask for pillows, blankets, etc. - whatever makes you comfortable! These massages are a pretty penny so make sure you get everything you can out of it!

Yay! I got 2 a month because of my migraines, they were great! My best massages were the ones where I was surrounded by pillows, they made it extra comfy cozy for me.
-
enjoy! I had one on a special table that lets you lie stomach down... it was really nice!
-
enjoy!!! i've always wanted to get one when i was pregnant but somehow never got to.
-
Enjoy! I got one for Christmas last year and it was glorious! Best two hours of my pregnant life, lol.
-
Don't be afraid to speak up, or fall asleep! I have had 2 so far, and love them!

I had one on Friday for my birthday. It was great. it really made my lower back feel better. I'm 18 weeks BTW. They had me lie on my side propped up with a baby pillow. they keep checking to make sure your comfortable and doing okay. It was really good but I think my non-pregnancy massage was better. However, I'll take anything that makes me feel a bit better.

@kayakgirl73: Happy birthday! This massage is a birthday present to myself (mine was on Saturday).
And for whatever reason, everyone decided to give me massage gift certificates as birthday presents, so I will be able to schedule a few more over the next several months. Woo!
-
@highwire: Happy Birthday to you also. that's great that you got a couple of massage gift certs.
-
enjoy! i was only about 13w when i got mine, but she just told me to let her know if i was uncomfortable at all. i was fine laying in the pregnancy pillow (there were belly and boob holes) and it was amazing!
-
@birdofafeather: Haha I'm trying to imagine a pillow with belly and boob holes! Sounds hilarious.
-
@highwire: it was! the boob holes were especially awesome because my breasts were still sore at that point!
i googled and found a photo. not every place has this i've found, so they may just keep you on your side.
-
@birdofafeather: Haha omg!
-
They just called and cancelled my appointment because the masseuse is sick.
-
boooooooooooooooooooooo!!!
hope you get your massage soon!
-
@mrsjyw: I know dude! I mean I get that people get sick or whatever, but this was at a swanky spa and costs over $100. They'd definitely be charging ME for cancelling with less than 2 hours notice. Can I get a discount or something lol?
-
@highwire: bummer! how lame! hope you can get a new appt soon!
-
@birdofafeather: hahaha oh my god. that is hilarious looking. what if your boobies don't fit into the holes??
@highwire: I TOTALLY would have asked that. "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that she's sick. Do you have any other available massage therapists? I requested off of work for this appt." or something, lol. I'm a brat!
-
@sorrycharlie: ha I'm not much better. I refused to reschedule and am taking my business elsewhere.
