Chill

“Chill” seems like a bad title in all this heat. However, today was a recovery day from yesterday and I didn’t set foot outside once. And it felt amazing. Not in the beginning though.

I’ve begun the phase of peeing twice every night. I think I’ve been lucky up until this point, honestly, only peeing once in the night for the first couple months, and now only the last few. I know you all wanted to know. However, I’m up to two pee breaks and while that should be all fine and good, my pelvis hurts SO badly by the second pee break that trying to get out of bed wakes me right up, and I’m done for the night. This morning it was around 5:00. I was up until 8:00. At that point I was feeling sooo heat strokey and nauseous that I attempted sleep again. It took until around 8:45 I’m guessing, but we got a phone call at 9:15 and the night was then officially over. I shouldn’t complain. 9:15 is a perfectly respectable time to call someone! But it sucked this morning.

Lucky for me, Dekker slept in super late, thanks to his amazing day yesterday! So Brady ran out and did a few errands in the morning while I lay in bed in a certain amount of pain, watching YouTube videos. When he came back, we had bagels for breakfast before getting Dekker. We spent the day in the cool basement, playing toys. I know, it seems like a shame after having so much fun outside yesterday. But I figured if I was feeling heat stroke, everyone likely had some as well, and we could use a day off. So we played toys and watched a movie and snacked all day long. Since absolutely everything we wore yesterday was covered in sweat and food, I did a load of our laundry, a load of Dekker’s laundry, and did the cover on the vibrating bouncy chair for baby girl.

Every second that I wasn’t sitting or laying perfectly still, I was in pain. And pretty solid pain too! So we did the inevitable and booked a chiropractic appointment tomorrow to try and get some relief. Having no health insurance kind of sucks, but after adding it all up, we likely would spend more on the plan than we would on the services. However, dropping $40 every time starts to feel a little expensive. But hey, five more weeks!!! Really hoping not to carry overdue. Hopefully once she comes, I’ll get a little repair or two, and then I’ll be good to go!

Not much to report for today, except that we’re all a little faded out and ready for bed. So thats where we’ll be! Or in the bath. Either way, we’ll be snacking and dozing for the next couple of hours, I have no doubt.

Sleep in peace. I sure hope to!
