This boy can KICK! Nothing new on the Teddy front, really. Just a lot of movement.
What IS new, is my official diagnosis of SPD. My sacroiliac joint was completely turned to the right and my sciatic nerve on the right side was being pinched like in a lobster claw. The good news? I have PT once a week now, and the first appointment really helped. I still have pain, but I'm learning what does and does not irritate it. It's hard, but I'm getting there. Plus I get a massage once a week, so I'll take it! Haha.

22 weeks! Or is it 23??
Quick update before bed, because I realized I had been slacking on this thing. Just got back to Kansas from ten days in New Jersey, during which I ate my weight in bagels. I also brought a dozen back in my checked luggage. I'm a freak.
Tedward is boxing up a storm in my belly! He's so active, I can hardly believe it. I'm so excited to meet this little man and hold him and kiss him and see what he looks like!
My pain is bad. We're pretty sure it's SPD, and I will be speaking with my doc about it tomorrow. My appointment is at 3pm, so I have plenty of time to get my list of questions organized. Lamaze/childbirth class is at night...it's our first one! We have it for 8 weeks I believe, every Tuesday at 6:30 over at the AFRC. I'm excited. I totally need to remind Eric to bring my yoga mat up from the basement tomorrow.
Speaking of the basement, it's basically a fully equipped gym now (for me, at least). We have the elliptical, the bench, the straps, the free weights, and now the suspension thing for pullups, etc.; basically, I will have no excuse not to get back into shape while Eric is deployed. I'm actually super excited!
Anyway, time to play some Pogo and watch some Deadly Women on netflix!
