I went to the chiropractor yesterday for some aches and pains I can only assume came from child birth. My left hip was out, a vertibrae in the middle of my back was out and same with one in my neck. He had a good time letting me know I will probably ache in places I never knew I had as Hannah gets older and heavier. I'm hoping to get out today or an hour or two and ride my newer horse Blake. Just to get a feel for how my body is healing. Even just walking will give me a good horsey fix. If my hip is okay then I'll try riding a little more.
Of course it's pouring outside....added to all the puddles and ponds we now have form the snow that melted yesterday. What a mess!
Hannah has been colicy for the last four nights. Her internal clock says 6pm is a good time to start screaming and not to stop until 11pm or maybe even midnight. Last night I packed her in the car and took her for a ride. It did the trick! Well...until we got home of course. Then she started screaming again. Finally by about 10pm she took a bottle and eventually fell asleep about an hour later. At least I think it was that long. I fell sleep in the glider while holding her and woke up around 11:30pm. Good thing I stuff pillows under my elbows! She stays put well and seems to be a great body heater.
Ahhhh....I hope this colic stuff doesn't last long. I just ordered something called "Gripe Water" made by Colic Calm to hopefully stop this in it's tracks. It's a homeopathic liquid that says it stops 90% of colic in babies. Crossing my fingers it works!

Do you have a bouncy seat that vibrates? This worked really well with both Dodge and Marina. Marina even had a bassinet that vibrated. And let me tell ya, this saved our sanity on several occasions!
