This week brought on a new pregnancy woe – SI joint pain.\u00a0 It started Tuesday with a little pain.\u00a0 By Wednesday I was limping, unable to lift anything at work, and struggling to get up out of chairs.\u00a0 Thursday I missed work (after much ado, argh-I hate our management) because the pain was so bad.\u00a0 I went to my midwife who diagnosed SI pain.\u00a0 I got a prescription for Vicodin and a referral for PT, who can’t see me until next week.\u00a0 The outlook is bad, that this pain will come and go until the end of pregnancy, and return for all subsequent pregnancies.\u00a0 I found an article here<\/a> that describes what I have perfectly.\u00a0 Basically the relaxin hormone is doing its thing to get ready for delivery, but it over-loosened the ligaments surrounding the sacral-iliac joint.<\/p>\n

I tried a Vicodin and it didn’t work any better than Tylenol, which is to say not at all.\u00a0 I’ve had heat and ice on my back round the clock.\u00a0 I had Jenni give me a massage and Ben bought me a supportive brace.\u00a0 This morning my pain is still here but only 60-75% of what it was yesterday, so I’ll go to work tonight.\u00a0 I hope it’s an easy night.\u00a0 And I hope the weekend is relaxing and makes the pain go away.\u00a0 And I hope I find time to try swimming at the rec center – I bought a swimsuit two weeks ago and haven’t had time yet.<\/p>\n

Last week I put my foot down and said I wasn’t taking call anymore.\u00a0 It was too difficult for me to have interrupted sleep and to respond to patient needs alone.\u00a0 I’m so glad I ended it.\u00a0 They worked out a schedule where I cover evening shifts during the week.\u00a0 The hours are unpredictable but I get to sleep in every day and that makes a huge difference in my well-being.\u00a0 I get up slowly and eat a decent breakfast, and even have time for a little leisure and errands.\u00a0 Well, if this blasted SI pain wasn’t holding me back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
