My nose still hurts quite a bit...there's a nasty gash across the entire bridge of my nose and it feels very weird...like there's pressure. Hoping it's just sore...I knocked it pretty good on the crib this morning.

Oh no, did you go to the ER? Does it need stitches?

Thanks Catra,

She is absolutely adorable! Look at those eyes shine! Thanks for sharing her with us. I broke out in a huge grin just from the image. I can only imagine how much better it is to be there in person. No wonder you manage to stay so upbeat.

Hugs to you both. Happy Valentine's Day, :hug:

I was definitely blessed with an amazing ray of sunshine in my life with this little girl. She is almost always smiling and happy. It makes me sad that she has to spend so much time at daycare because of my shoulder problems right now...but then I look through the several thousand pictures I have of her smiling and videos of her playing and it's all okay. I can't help but smile when I see that face. :)

I didn't...I think it looks worse than it is...at least I'm hoping. If it's still bad tomorrow I may go to the dr to get it checked out. My boyfriend said he didn't think it was broken...he's had lots of broken noses playing sports...but was worried about a concussion so has been keeping an eye on me today (so far no red flags on that front either).

It has been a great day. My little girl was in a great mood and we took a small 10 minute adventure into the backyard and the snow. We put her in her snow suit and let her play in the snow a little. My RSD is flaring up from that...but boy was she adorable out there and we got some great pictures and videos. A great day overall and now I'm going to rest up...try out my new infared heating pad...and do a little stitching to take my mind off the various pains I have throughout my body...

Catra, I've been considering an infared heating pad, Do you think it helps more than a regular one? What brand do you have? Thanks ~mac
PS How is your nose?

I like the infared heating pad...it does seem to work better than the regular electric heating pad I have...a more penetrating deep heat vs the hot to the touch regular one. I got mine from amazon. I can't get the link to post...but I just did a search for infared heating pad and its the one that's 69.99 with prime shipping.

My nose is better...still has a nice cut across the bridge but only hurts now if I touch it or if I bend over.
