While Greg is out in the shed/out-building/laundry room/whatever we call that building painting his Gundam model, I thought I would blog.
I did go to the orthopedic guy and well, there is really nothing he can do for me. I am pretty much going to be in pain for a few more months. It is bursitis and it is not fun. I had it real bad in my left hip before and during my wedding and it is back again for another special moment in my life. The right side is not as bad as the left, but both hurt. The doctor said there was nothing he could do for me except give me a cortisone shot (if my OB approves it). So, not wanting that lovely shot, I will stick it out and hobble around. A wonderful coworker gave me some cherry pit packs (stick in freezer to chill) to put on my hips and that was wonderful.
Also, my heartburn has decide to make a comeback. That means no tomatoes, tomato based products, acidic fruit or juice, CHOCOLATE, heavy dairy (oh like ice cream), greasy or fried foods and no caffiene or alcohol (which after no sleep, painful hips and crazy cats I was seriously considering; okay not really). I sleep sitting up more and that allows me to get out of bed faster to beat on the cats (which I guess is a plus in some weird way).
Beyond all this I am doing well. Sophie is kicking harder and harder and her movements have become more fluid. She is claiming more and more real estate (location, location, location) in my tummy which is weird when she kicks me on the side or way above my belly button. I always think, “How the heck did she get up there?” Of course the OB assures me that I am not big at all and Sophie will have way more room in the next couple of months. And that is something that someone who feels like a house already wants to hear.
I hope all is going well with everyone else. I had fun with the links in this post. Some people will understand some of the references. More soon!
