Things Not To Do When You Have SPD  

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
Try to avoid almost getting run over.

Seriously.

I stopped by the grocery store last night - on my way home from a massage, no less - because we needed orange juice. And well, I *needed* pastry, but that's another issue. I'm making my way in, paying as much attention as I always do, when this woman just starts... backing up. Without looking where she was going.

So, naturally, I do my best imitation of a run, luckily she finally looks in her rearview mirror and stops, and I make it inside the door without tire marks.

Except. I don't know what I did in my effort to run away from the crazy car, but my pelvis does not like it. OW. I was in a pretty constant pain before, but it's so much worse today (and it was somewhat worse last night before bed) that I seriously don't know what to do. It's sooo bad, I have a feeling I wouldn't notice labor over it.

So. There is my tip. Don't almost get run over.

Were you going to a SuperTarget? I have never come so close to getting run over so regularly as I do at SuperTarget. And it's always huge SUVs.

Hope you feel better!

putting myself in your story and trying to mentally envision myself doing a running-hobble approach to the curb totally cracked me up...I am so sorry you are in more pain now!!! but so glad you are tire mark free!!

Yikes! Glad you still have enough hustle to get outta the way. I honestly don't know if I would. After nearly 4 days of these contrax, my pelvis feels like someone took a baseball bat to it. Also I second the question about Super Target. I don't know what it is about that store, but the parking lots are dangerous!!

Glad you are okay! Well, except for your pelvis. Hope that gets better soon--rest up!

Nope, not Target - just my little old corner Publix! I didn't think I had it in me to move, either, but I guess I had enough adrenaline to get me moving. Thankfully my pelvis is feeling better today, but it did take a while. Crazy thing.

Im glad you are ok.. Parking lots are my nemisis, it seems like people disconnect their ability to drive when they enter them. Ive almost been hit so many times walking to and from the enterance of places.

Knowing your pain all too well, I am really mad at that driver for you. I hope you can rest up and get some relief.
