More Moaning
The Husband and I had a really super weekend. The Inn/B&B that we stayed at was large enough that it didn't feel like we were invading someone's home. There were several other guests staying there and pretty much everyone kept to themselves except for one wacky Pensacola couple but they were alright.
It was so good to leave the city. I hadn't seen The Husband in that good of a mood for a long time.

Our baby shower is this weekend. I'm very much looking forward to seeing people that I don't get to see often enough. After the shower The Husband and I will be moving into high gear to get the house in order - although I'm not sure that he's aware of this plan. It may be worthwhile to hire someone to boss around for the day rather than try to negotiate with The Husband but we'll see.

One good thing about carpal tunnel is that it distracts me from all other pregnancy symptoms! At my doctors suggestion, I made an appointment with an orthopedist for Friday. Surgery is not an option nor something that I would want, however, my OBGYN said that a cortisone shot would be fine and would do nothing to The Baby except further develop the lungs. I still have a lot of questions for the Orthopedist at my appointment but if a couple of steroid injections could kill the pain until I deliver then it might be worth it. I spoke with my uncle last night who's a chiropractor and he suggested acupuncture to manage the pain. I'll be looking into that today as well. Most of the time I just feel like a gimp; especially when I wake up in the morning or when The Husband has to carry something for me because my fingers go completely numb. I can type without a lot of discomfort but writing by hand is taxing.
This whole thing is incredibly frustrating because I'm usually very good with pain and we don't even keep pain killers in the house. Carpal tunnel sucks, dude.

Carpal tunnel does suck! I keep waking up with my hands numb, and it usually goes away within minutes, but lately my thumb stays numb and it's quite painful...
