Life is moving along. Not much to speak of which is good.
I went to the doctor yesterday and everything is perfect. I am lucky to be having a very easy pregnancy! Baby boy is great, all tests came back negative, and he continues to grow. His growing is really starting to hurt. I have been experiencing round ligament pain quite often now. Last Thursday the pain got quite severe, but once I got into bed I felt so much better.
Last Wednesday I tried prenatal yoga for the first time and it was absolutely amazing. I didn't really know what to expect going into it and my mind was totally blown away. I love how the instructor just had a baby 3 months ago and totally knows what we are going through. There was only one other person in the class so we got individualized instruction, which was another plus. She had the most amazing why of getting us to connect with our babies and, umm, yeah, I may have shed a few tears. When I got home I felt like I was walking taller, had no aches or pains, and I slept perfectly! I would be going back tomorrow, but I got a call yesterday saying they had to close the studio for the month and won't resume classes till March. Needless to say, I was incredibly bummed!
