I'm not a big fan of the eighth prompt for NaBloPoMo. It's about acupressure.
I've never tried it. That's my contribution.
Instead, I'd like to take a moment to mention how proud I am of myself for getting through this work week. I'm about to finish week 34 of my pregnancy, and each week I'm able to make it through work is a huge victory. I have cankles the size of an elephant's. My body aches. I constantly want to see the backs of my eyelids. But the best part of all is that I have a healthy and active baby girl who is growing beautifully and should be making her arrival in one month.
We got to take home a 4D ultrasound of our girl yesterday, and of course, she's gorgeous! She has chubby cheeks and currently looks exactly like her daddy. I remain in awe that my body is growing another life, and while it is so difficult, I thank God every day that I have this miraculous opportunity to do this.
The only complaint I have right now? This mild head cold that needs to go far, far away.
Good luck with your growing family! I am very excited for you. Acupressure can be very effective for pain relief, insomnia, and stress. If you ever have the chance, try it.
ReplyDeleteI may have to then, Lynda, especially for stress. :)
