propped up foot
well, i definitely pushed the foot too far on Wednesday so yesterday it was very sore. Today i am going as easy as i can and staying off of it as much as possible. The eats are coming and going. Last night I actually went to bed before my husband and even before Obama spoke - we have been watching the Convention every night. I was trying hard to honor my sleepiness and you know what happened? First, I couldn’t fall asleep, then I did and woke up at 1:30. I was awake until about 4:30. I’m not too tired right now, but, come on, i was trying to be good and get in bed before 10. I did use the middle of the night to breathe, stretch, and just be quietly in the house and with the baby. As I near time for labor I am focusing on relaxation and letting go, especially of fear. These are some of my steps towards health. I also want my foot to be in as good of shape as possible so I am trying to let it heal by staying off, elevating it, and using ice. I think it will just take time. Patience I will need to have…that is a good goal.
I did treat myself to a massage today and have a few more scheduled before the baby comes. I decided that was what i really needed to help right now - some good nurturing. So we will splurge on a few.
have a great weekend all! remember to find ways to nurture yourself or have someone do it for you!
