I am sure this will pass....
OK- so just when I thought it could not get worse- it did. I thought -- 9 months, bilateral carpel tunnel syndrome, terrible head cold, back pain, nighttime bathroom trips every 2-3 hours and increasing braxton hicks contractions-- I have reached the pinnacle of my pregnancy trials.....
And then WHAM!!! right foot into door frame at 3 am returning from another bathroom trip in the dark. WOW that really hurt. Too tired to do anything about that right now. I am sure this will pass. Back to bed.... Throbbing pain... I am sure this will pass. Limping during 6am bathroom break. I am sure this will pass.
Wake up and get ready for a full day of work on Saturday to finish my grant which needs to be done by Monday. Hmm...that foot really hurts and seems a little swollen. I am sure this will pass. Not able to bear weight on that foot. I am sure this will pass. Not able to put on any shoes in the house due to swollen right foot. OK- I guess this is not going to pass.
Off to urgent care clinic.... Yes folks, I managed to break my little piggy toe. This turns out to be incredibly painful. Nothing to do but tape it, ice it, rest it, and wear a lovely little black boot.
Should take 4-6 weeks to heal. Which it turns out is longer then the time Mr. Wiggle has left in the oven. So, I guess I will be laboring in my fancy black boot and not using the whirlpool I heard so much about in my birth class.
I am sure this will pass.....

HI - Oh where is the picture of the little black bootie? So sorry you had to do that - but remember the book title - Things That Go Bump in the Night - wasn't just about scary things but real ones too!
Take care and hope all goes well with the other adventure coming soon!
Love, Dad Craig
There is much pouting and sympathy in our household on your behalf. At least you already have Wiggle's guilt trips ready to go!

Oh sweetheart !!!!!!!! You POOR thing! Just stay in bed after your grant is filed; of course, that doesn't solve the restroom situation...my nephew has a very strong mommy and daddy! XOXOXOOXOXO - Lisa
Oh no!!! That sucks! Broken toes are the worst since there's so little you can do. Maybe there is a waterproof black boot for you? Hang in there, sweetie.
