This couple’s journey is amazing. It is a three part story. It is especially nice if you have a few things to do around the house and can listen while cooking or cleaning or even laying down on the couch for a rest (ahh!).
The past few days I have a very sore back and ligaments. I have started to walk quite different as well. I don’t think the baby’s head is engaged so I am blaming it on all the relaxin that is pumping through my system. It is quite pronounced when I attempt to walk fast to pick up the phone. I would think it was funny but I am in a bit too much discomfort to think that way for long. I think the third trimester aches are kicking in. I am scheduled to see my chiropractor this Friday which should be helpful. It will be my first visit pregnant. I am glad I have made it so far without needing to go in. But now I am soo ready. They have done studies and new mothers who have adjustments have 29% quicker labors. Proper alignment of the spine and pelvis apparently help labor to progress smoothly. Nice bonus. I am thinking about having the baby taken in after the birth to be evaluated. Baby’s can suffer a lot of spinal and head trauma during birth. We shall see.
This afternoon Lydia, Libby and I did clipped the Tyler. He looks so much better and is cooler I am quite sure too. It was nice spending the afternoon with them. I am trying a new recipe for chicken divan tonight. I hope Andrew likes it. He isn’t a big fan of chicken but I like a tad of variety on occasion and whole chickens can go on some spectacular sales on occasion. Then my freezer gets stocked up again for the crock pot.
Hopefully Friday I will post a week 31 belly picture. I haven’t been very good at getting those taken. Baby is growing though so I am happy. Loves to move around in there. Oh and I found out my midwife is due October 8th. Just 2 days before me. She might not be there for me to give birth if she has just had her baby. So maybe we will have Norla. Who knows! Anyways she is using cloth diapers too and we had a fun conversation on the benefits of using wool covers Monday which was nice.
