I have always been incredibly flexible. And I have always either slept one of two ways. I either sleep like a frog, or a sleep in full fetal position completely curled in a ball.
Today at the Chiropractor we were discussing my sleep position to determine if that was effecting my pain and muscle tension.
I showed him that I sleep with my legs Indian style and laying down. He had quite a good chuckle at that. Especially with me at 26 weeks.
He was then telling me about some stretches I could do from bed to try and stay loose, and not get cramps, blood clots, and have more complications. He warned me that they are pretty intense for most people to get into, and that at first I may not be able to stretch as much as I might want too. Then he showed me what I needed to do, and laughed out loud when I had no problem at all getting my leg high enough and bent enough to stretch. He said that he had never seen anyone as pregnant as me be able to move like that with no complaint. Guess I am pretty amazing :)
Of course you are amazing, silly girl!
