Thanks again everyone. That last flare was a doozy and I haven't flared like that is probably several years. It wasn't the worst pain I've ever felt...I've had higher pain levels...but gosh darn it this last flare lasted over a week and even my bad ones usually only last a few days. This last one just wouldn't let go.

Thanks for all the different ideas...I will possibly look into getting some more help. This month with daycare I actually set up pick up an hour later than I've been doing...that way I have time to go home, rest, eat, etc before having to pick the little one up. Daycare is 5 minutes from the house...so I'll have an hour or so of recovery time before jumping right into full on mommy mode. Thursday I told my boyfriend he was getting up with the baby in the morning and got an extra hour and a half of much needed sleep.

So I'm feeling much better today. Weather is warm and we're setting up the pool (warm water) and hope to enjoy some relaxing time after work today, tomorrow, and Monday.
