Back Ache

My back is a mess. Has been for years now. Which is wild to believe when I really think about it, but it is years, since W was born. Maybe it was the back labor? Maybe it was the two epidurals? Who knows....

It's been getting considerably worse this year. More flare ups. More severe. Quite debilitating. Even a trip to Urgent Care for some lovely Toradol once.

Maybe it's because I'm a 100lbs overweight? Core strength? Ha!

Well, this Friday I am finally going for xrays and then making a plan.Rather than just hit and miss massage or chiro or the very rare physio. In the mean time, I purchased a lovely, cushy body pillow to sleep with, between my knees, 'cause that's supposed to help one's back. To which my husband said about the body pillow,

"What's with putting the Berlin Wall back up?"

  4. At our house when one of us puts the pillows up we call it the Great Wall of China. The body pillow works amazing for the back, and lets face it--it can be put to good creativity in the bedroom--especially if you are short (sorry, I know too much information). Oh well, hope to give you a laugh. Take care of yourself--for sure girl, it is ok to actually think about your own needs once in awhile, You know, how you tell me. You are pretty special to a ton of people, so don't doubt your value.
    Take Care
