At this point I just really don’t know what’s going on with my body.<\/p>\n
Well Tuesday I talked to a dentist friend of mine who said without a doubt that the teeth pain I am having is from clenching in my sleep. She said it’s very common, especially in times of high stress – hmmmm, wonder if I am having a stressful time lately. And afterwards I remembered that on Monday I had woken up from a bad dream (involving babies, yes), so it’s no doubt that I had really clenched that night and caused horrific pain all day. They still do hurt, but I have been catching myself doing now that I know to watch for it so today they are hurting FAR less. If it continues I may have to go to the dentist to get fitted for a tooth guard thing to prevent me from doing it (but I’m pretty sure our insurance wouldn’t cover much, if any). She also said that sensitive teeth is caused by clenching, so I’ve been doing it for years…. just not to the extreme degree that I have recently. I was all like… wow, that would have been nice info to have 4 years ago when I went to the dentist (in Canada) complaining about wicked sensitive teeth. A lot more helpful than, “You just have sensitive teeth. Nothing we can do.”<\/p>\n
So that explains one thing, but today now my stomach is hurting. WTF? And at this point I can’t even tell what<\/i> is hurting… I think it’s my stomach, but everything’s moved around so much in there that I can’t freaking tell. Sort of feels like hunger pains… but I feel them even after I eat. I’m sure it’s related to how everything is moving around in there, flopping around aimlessly now that there’s no huge uterus squashing things into my ribs. Maybe it simply doesn’t know what to do with itself and is having panic attacks. I wouldn’t blame it. (Though I do wonder why it has started now, 4 weeks post-partum. Delayed reaction?)<\/p>\n
My mom is arriving tomorrow (errr… today). We’ll see how this goes… and if I have time to post much. Or play my game (World of Warcraft). I am addicted. Yay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
