Last night, when I went to bed my back was really hurting. And then, my husband offered up some advice that was so brilliant, I decided to blog it. "Hey Honey, why don't you try a hot water bottle?"
Duh. Why have I not thought of that yet?!
I promptly jumped out of bed (well, rolled out of bed...with lots of help!) and put a kettle of water on the stove to boil. As soon as it was boiled, I filled my little water bag and headed back to bed, where I stuffed the hot bag under my back.
Immediate relief. Aaaaahhh....
I slept like a baby last night and woke up *gasp* without a backache!
As I write this, my kettle of water is on the stove. I will not be going to bed without my hot water bottle again until after the baby is born and these backaches go away.
A loud shout-out of thanks to my awesome hubby: Thank-you for suggesting such a great idea!!!
Note to all pregnant women -- or just women with backaches -- try a hot water bottle!!! Trust me, you'll be amazed at the relief it gives!
