urgh

lookie what i got today.

i've been battling wrist pain for months now. carrying around a 21 lbs baby will do that to you. the pain is now radiating up my arm, across my shoulder, up my neck, and into my scalp. ouch.

this stupid thing is supposed to make everything better. i must say, it is easier to type than i thought it would be. but can i knit with it on? i haven't tried that or lifting or carrying the monkey yet.


urgh.

Have you been wearing it? Is it helping?

hard to say if it is helping. i'm not having the shooting pains up my arm/shoulder/scalp. but i went to the chiropractor on saturday and got cracked so that might have something to do with it.

my wrist still hurts to twist, like to check the time or to lift anything heavier than 3 lbs.

we'll see. i feel really awkward wearing it. it is hard to dress/undress/change diapers/strap carseat belts etc. fun times!

i haven't knit with it on.
