Today, I felt good, and so the family all met at Spring Fling at my old school. Same deal as last night, where I was able to walk while carrying the baby – I carried her with Ease, zero sense of pushing myself at all. Nothing hurt. We went slowly and I sat often and for a while each time. But nothing even ached a little bit, and we were there for about four hours. I got tired, but not achey.
I sat in an epsom salt bath tonight, and found it bizarre how it was the first time I haven’t gotten in and felt ‘I so needed this’. It was nice and cozy, and felt good, but didn’t feel necessary like it had felt since before birth.
Truly, it was so weird today. I got to show many of my old coworkers (who are dear to me) my daughter and be happy and feel good while doing so. I hadn’t once been able to do that before last night, not be miserable while introducing her to someone. My body hadn’t not been in aches and pain for almost two months. Until last night, that is.
The power of God in the Holy Spirit is boundless. I am grateful for the grace of His blessing.
Thank you, God. Thank you. Keep me and my husband and our baby safe and well, please. In your name, I pray. Amen.
