I miss my baby!!!!!! I haven't been able to hold my baby since Friday morning when I threw my back out by picking her up wrong. My mom had to come over then and today to help me take care of dd while dh was at work. I am very independent, so it has been very hard to sit back and let someone else take care of my little girl! I finally went to the doctor's office and they gave me a cortisone shot, some kind of pain patches, and some wonderful pain pills, so hopefully I will be better soon since I miss loving on my baby. The worst part is that my dh will be going on a business trip tomorrow night, so my mom will have to spend the night to help with the baby. I am very grateful for the help, but my mom can be very overbearing sometimes, so it will be a long night.
The moral of the story...lift with your knees and not your back...
