YEOWCH!

I have a pinched sciatic nerve. I'm also about 4.5 months pregnant. Problem? YES!! The pain stabs me right in the butt. Yeah - right THERE! And the doctor I saw said the only thing I can do is wait it out. Oh, and take two REGULAR strength Tylenol every SIX hours. I'm all for the good drugs. A good muscle relaxer, Novocain, vicodin when prescribed, etc. Well, those are all out. =( She did mention getting a prenatal massage which I figured couldn't hurt. I got one and LOVED every minute. The next problem? The masseuse was so good she 'worked out' the nerve problem leaving my butt with a HUGE purple/yellow/green bruise! I'll take the bruise pain over the sciatic pain, but geez! Couldn't I just NOT be in pain at all? Just an idea...

On a much happier note - I do have to say I'm looking awfully cute in my maternity wear. I'm pooking out nicely even though I am only 4.5 months. I guess it's normal for B2 to pook out earlier, but wow! I'm pooking, baby. I'm pooking!

And, if one more person asks me if we're going to find out if it's a boy or a girl, I'm going to cry. Or scream. Or both. I'm just saying...

I see what the hype's about

I've started reading again. It's been a LONG while, and I tried a few things here and there but I also made a deal with myself that I wouldn't force myself to finish anything. Well, I finished something. And I'm in love....

If you haven't checked out Stephanie Meyer's 4-book Twilight series, please consider it. The website gives a TON of information without giving away anything. There's apparently a movie coming out soon, so if you're going to jump on the bandwagon, you might as well jump now. And the paperbacks are $8.99 at Target. How can you beat that? I'm SO glad I'm a bandwagon kind of girl!
