Okay so when you have chronic back pain, and you are pregnant, exercise is your best friend. Well at least it should be. But try telling that to a stubborn pregnant chic.
I didn't do what my chiropractor told me to do, or what my husband tells me to do, and the result was/is back pain. I don't mean "oh I am sore" type of back pain. I mean "if I take another step I am going to collapse and crawl everywhere I need to go" type of back pain.
I woke up one day and realized that I was too stiff to move. And, if I tried to walk, my left leg would give out. Not the best way to start the day.
So I ended up getting the disappointed look from Brian, because I hadn't been keeping up with my back exercises. I don't really have any excuse because the benefits out way the risks. I just was lazy and didn't really want to go to the gym, or even go for a walk.
So now, I sit here typing away with a heating pack on my back and a new motivation to go to the gym every day or else I will end up being on bed rest because I won't be able to walk because of the extreme pain.
