Quit talking about baths!

PnkDingo · December 2012

lol, I've read three or four posts about baths now, and I'm DYING to just go run the tub and soak and get lost in the kindle for a little bit (in a perfect world: with a giant glass of moscato)

The problem: My knees and ankles are so swollen and my back so spasm-y that if I sit down in the tub, I quite literally cannot get up. Pretty sure I scarred my sister for life because I needed help last week (I had her bring me one of my summer dresses to throw on and shimmy into so she wouldn't have to see anything, but still, helping haul your pregnant sister out of the bathtub isn't on anyone's bucket list lol) and since Michael won't be back until the end of January I have to refrain from baths until then.

Quit bumming me out, people!

I feel ya! I want a bath SO freaking bad, but we don't have a bathtub big enough to fit me. (And ditto the wine. Seriously.)

Old fashioned claw footed tubs should be a requirement in all households. Seriously, Santa needs get on that, stat.

As much as I hated the look of mine in my apartment, and as big a pain in the butt it was to hang shower curtains around the whole thing, that tub was the best thing ever for soaking in, and I'm a pretty big person even not pregnant. I miss it terribly now.

Omg, I want one of those so badly. It sounds perfect right now.

Mmm, Moscato. My mouth is literally watering! I just dumped out the last of the Epsom salt in my bathtub, partially because I couldn't see a thing, and also because I'm having the same aches and pains that you're describing! Not too much longer!

Epsom salts are magic... So are lush bath bombs.... I swear I get a personality upgrade when I use them.

That comment alone makes me want to go play The Sims and I haven't done that in ages, lol.

I could try an epsom salt bath, but not tonight. It's only my dad and I home, and we have a strained relationship on a good day. I can't see asking him for help getting out of the tub if I really need it lol

Maybe this is what I need to do... I could really use extra charisma and a personality upgrade right now. For serious.
