My New Best Friend

Over the weekend I started having severe pains in my left side...and no matter what I did it kept getting worse. So, Sunday I decided it was time to go get it checked out at the hospital. It ended up being the round ligaments stretching, with muscle spasms on top of that...which I figured to begin with, but considering this is my first pregnancy, decided it would be best to make sure. I had seen something called a "maternity belt" at Motherhood Maternity...actually Hannah and I made fun of them only two weeks ago while I was in there buying maternity clothes...little did I know I would soon own one! The nurse told me this might really help support my stomach and keep from straining those muscles so much...so in desperation I purchased one. It is one of the BEST inventions! I wouldn't take it off after the sales woman put it on me, and I wore it right out of the store! It was like taking a huge load off! I've only had it since Sunday, but it has already made the biggest difference, and is now my new best friend!
