A Little Relief!

Well I had my first morning of physical therapy this morning. I have to say I really didnt think I would feel any different and actually thought I would hurt more. However, I have to say, even after one visit it felt better! I mean I still hurt but at least I could walk and not look like a stiff robot. I was real good until about 11am today, and then the pain got worse as the day went on.

I go back again next week Monday, Wednesday and Friday and then possibly another week after that. The therapist told me since there really wasnt much they could do with the muscles because I'm pregnant, that they would teach me the stretches and exercises to do on my own. She said there would be no point in me to keep going when they were things I could do myself. I agree... it's a pain to lose money at work and all when I dont really have to.

I'm going to have Jon come with me on Monday into my appointment so they can show him how to stretch me too. That way we can do them at home and get pretty much the same benefit. I'm also going to see about picking up a heating pad. I think it would be a good investment since this morning she had to heat up my butt - well the muscle - just to get my leg/hip moving without me freaking out in pain.

Anyway, we'll see how things go along in the next week or so. I'll keep updating!
