As for part two of the title...
I woke up Friday morning unable to hold up my coffee cup, which weighs considerably less than my 20lb babies. A quick Facebook plea and I found out I have Tenosynovitis (when did a social networking system replace my doctor?)
Tendonitis & Tenosynovitis baby
I'm not flirting with you, I'm giving you the phrase to Google for more information. Because if you have a heavy baby, or, say, a baby that is already 16 pounds when you meet him, there is a good chance this will happen to you
Wow. I had no idea there was a name for this or that anyone else had ever had this happen to them! Thank you. (I still need to google though)
ReplyDeleteI was in horrible pain for months on end in the beginning. Nothing seemed to help.
Well, 2 years later it has gotten much better. I still have flare ups (a month or so ago I had a hard time just cutting a bite of chicken) but not as often.
