Taking It Slow

Once again, I find myself frustrated by how long it takes to truly recover. I have to keep reminding myself it's barely been a week and a half, but I'm going kind of stir crazy. It seems every time it seems like I'm on the verge of feeling normal again, I have another setback. For one thing, I noticed that something as simple as picking up Eva can start me bleeding again. And with the feminine dryness that goes along with nursing, that makes for a very uncomfortable and inconvenient situation. A ride in the car or sitting too long in a certain chair can get my bruised pelvic bones aching badly enough for me to take extra Advil. It's hard to recognize my physical limitations and ask for someone's help, when all I want to do is simply throw in a load of laundry or run to the store.
