This ‘waking up after five hours of sleep to answer nature’s call and being unable to fall asleep again until ten minutes before the alarm goes off’-thing is getting old really fast. \u00a0But it’s ringing all sorts of ‘hey, remember the sleep-deprivation?’ bells. \u00a0Yay.<\/p>\n
So yes, this morning was yet another one of ‘those’ mornings, except there was no room to lounge or sleep more because I had appointments galore starting from \u00a09 am. \u00a0(Getting Anna out the door is the 7 – 8 am task.)<\/p>\n
I began by dropping the boys off. \u00a0Then I wrangled a referral to physiotherapy from my GP (who didn’t get the memo on how we’re all pretending a 90-95 blood-pressure reading is a-ok), after which I met briefly with the midwife (no news is good news). \u00a0After a short home pit-stop it was on to physio, where I was poked, wrangled, and massaged.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, it felt like Ms. Bambino moved herself a little lower into my pelvis yesterday evening (35w3d, but who’s counting), which seemed to release a lot of tension on the outside of my dysfunctional\u00a0left hip, and it starting feeling better. \u00a0The middle part of the pelvis, however, is now more grouchy. \u00a0Sigh.<\/p>\n
Fast forward to today, and the main hip-flexor pain seems to be mostly gone, but the whole hip area is inflamed, unstable, and unhappy after a week and a half of badness, and I’m still limping. \u00a0So the physio found a bunch of sore spots that she massaged, and gave me some\u00a0exercises, and I’ll be seeing her again on Friday. \u00a0And she was extremely happy that I’d gone and found myself a crutch. \u00a0Score one for Finnur!<\/p>\n
I (of course) managed to undo most of her good work by clumsily entering and\/or exiting the car soon thereafter, but still decided to return a malfunctioning alarm clock<\/a> and pick up a new one. \u00a0Why? \u00a0Because waking up and seeing the clock project 7:45 onto our ceiling instead of 3:45 due to a faulty number-projector is no fun. \u00a0Then I almost went next door to buy bananas, but decided that would be pushing my hip-luck. \u00a0So home I went to\u00a0nap with my toes in the air.<\/p>\n The rest of the day went as per usual when I have the car. \u00a0It does however bear mentioning that Anna finished Harry Potter 4<\/a> tonight (in English) after staying up way late for the past couple of evenings. \u00a0She was absolutely dog-tired today as a result, which turned into crazy giggle-mania as it got closer to bedtime, but she was all done by 21:15 so I’m hoping she’ll be functional tomorrow…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This ‘waking up after five hours of sleep to answer nature’s call and being unable to fall asleep again until ten minutes before the alarm goes off’-thing is getting old really fast. \u00a0But it’s ringing all sorts of ‘hey, remember the sleep-deprivation?’ bells. \u00a0Yay.
