Not true. I actually said, "Sounds great. When?"
I remember Ty not liking that I call it "rehab" because people may not know that I mean physical rehabilitation.
I laugh every time I say or think the word "rehabilitation" because I think of the scene in Idiocracy when Frito sees the Rehabilitation poster and says, "Re-r-rehabilation." Oh, funny. I want to watch that movie again when Ty comes back.
Anyway, I did Zumbas, weights and toning, then came home and showered. I nursed Eisley, then left for "rehabilation." I stopped by Starbucks on the way to get a green tea latte, since I'd not eaten.
My PT, Kim, is amazing. She did my initial evaluation and also does my sessions, which is nice and how it (logically) should happen, though that's not how things are done in Killeen... go figure.
Anyway, this was my first real session. I'd been doing my exercises and was looking forward to more adjustments. She was pleased that I wasn't too off-kilter and began with my psoas muscles. Those are muscles that go from one's abdomen to leg on both sides of the body. They're quite deep. I thought she was going to have me do some exercise, but instead she starts massaging them. They must have been tight because DAMN! I was feeling the burn, for sure.
I then did five minutes of side-stepping on a treadmill on each side, which was a surprisingly good little exercise! I did some squats and pull-down things with resistance bands, next. I noticed my right knee popping, so we altered them a bit. I did squats on both legs, then each leg, individually. The goal was to target the muscle the goes from the lower back to the glute.
I did a couple abdominal exercises at the end, then I told her my left SI was still "stabby." She had me lay down and she mashed on something and it was so excruciating in a good way. It was the kind of pain that you know is agonizing, but would feel better after. I was laughing it hurt so bad. She said the muscle and tissue was very hard around it.
We did a bit of shopping when I got home: Target (jammies, groceries) and Buy Buy Baby (sippy cup, calendula body wash). I had dinner at home alone because the folks went out to eat and to a movie.
Eis fell asleep at 2100 -- wow. I laid in bed, thinking she'd wake up after 30 minutes. My body hurt so bad there was no way I was going to be able to fall asleep. A little bit later, my dad comes home and I have him give me a back rub. I passed out hard after that!
Problem was Eisley slept for TWO HOURS AND FORTY-FIVE MINUTES.
Woke up. Nursed. Slept for TWO HOURS AND FORTY-FIVE MINUTES.
Woke up. Nursed. Slept for TWO HOURS AND FORTY-FIVE MINUTES.
Woke up. Changed a diaper. Nursed. Slept for an HOUR AND A HALF.
Woke up. Changed a diaper. Slept for an HOUR.
Woke up. Changed a diaper. Nursed. Told my mom to get her if she made noise.
I got to sleep another two and a half hours.
