Feeling Really Good

I'll start by saying that I feel really good today and I assume it is from the great night of sleep I got last night. I went to my chiropractor yesterday and she straightened out the crap going on in my head (cold) and helped me with the giant pain in my ars! :-) No not the kids or Kevin but the real pain I have been having. I'm wondering now why I have waited 5 months to go see her. Well, money but besides that...it was well worth it.

The baby was moving like crazy yesterday, before my adjustment and after. Today he is pretty quiet. I was getting worried this morning because he really didn't move much at all before 11 am. WOW. But once I got in the car he started moving about a little. I haven't felt the kicks on the right side like usual but I think he is just napping, kind of like I felt after my appointment yesterday. It just made me feel good. Maybe he just feels good. :-) After the kids go to bed tonight I'll try a kick count. I've just been doing so much today it is hard to realize his movements.

I also got a phone call back from our neighbor who is a massage therapist. I am thinking about having her come here while I'm laboring at home and do some massage. It will give Kevin a break and she is trained. Not in natal but she is talking to others who are. She is coming over in the next few days to do a test massage. Cool! Not sure we will use her but I thought it might be nice to have her on standby in case I feel the need. Not going through a normal labor before I don't really know what to expect. I don't know how I will want to relax. I do know that massage is the biggest form of relaxation for me so I wanted to give it a whirl.

So, hopefully any day now Carson will want to join the world. While we're waiting, I have an OBGYN appointment Tuesday, massage appointment Sunday or Tuesday and another chiro. appointment next Wed.
