BG - Sorry to hear about your injuries, why has that happened? You poor thing, hope things improve soon.
long story, but dot points are that i broke my arm when i was a kid, tearing the cartiledge between the two bones at the time. surgery hasn't corrected it, so my wrist dislocates itself if pressure is put the wrong way (which can be something as big as me falling on it, or putting weight on it as i stand up, or as small as carrying E and her weight shifting, cuddling DH in bed and him moving my hand the wrong way) - anyhoot, i know it is a weak point, but i try to not keep it strapped all the time as it will weaken it further. i'm probably in need of more surgery on it to try and stabilise it again. this time, i did something stupid that popped my wrist and jarred my shoulder and possibly torn muscle through my shoulder/shoulderblade region (bloody red head temper!) - because that side of my body is really uncomfy, i was overcompensating and using the other side for everything and it has created pain in my right hand side as well. E being as big as she is now, carrying her weight on the same side all the time has made things nasty for me. she is also still being rather clingy with the teething gig and wonder weeking at the same time. it's been full on!

new mummy's - if you haven't already, see if you can get hold of a copy of the wonder weeks book - it is a fantastic resource - it explains so much of what goes on during those really fussy periods. it doesn't by any means FIX the fussy periods, but it helps so much to understand WHY they are doing it - and how to help them through it with appropriate activities. i am someone that gets very easily frustrated (hence the dodgy wrist incident this past week) but i am not only able to put that frustration aside when E is wonder weeking, i'm able to help her through it. understanding what is going on with her is a key driver for my own sanity lol

fourth tooth is on the brink. i almost went so far as to say it was through earlier - but it still feesl a wee bit spongy over the top of it - so i might make it official later lol. i now have my very own little vampire girl. all she wants for Easter is her two front teeth lol
