The one bad thing about sleeping on my back is it's hard to cuddle. My 2 year old tried to snuggle into me and I gave in for a few moments and laid on my side while I held her. We really need to finish painting her room so she can get back to her own bed.
I did end up getting Spinal Touch yesterday. Man, I didn't realize how messed up my back is. It was 4 nights into the experiment, but after I saw this picture, I thought it was a more accurate portrayal of what's going on.
In this picture, I am just standing in my relaxed position. Notice how my shoulders are WAY off, and so are my shoulder blades. My below my shoulder blades you can see the jump in my spine even though the rest of it is pretty much straight. Also, my back arches way too much. It's amazing to see what it looks like when it's relaxed.
As far as sleep went last night, I slept well and my back didn't hurt. I was tempted (as I am every night so far) to roll over and sleep in a more relaxed position, but I held strong. Interestingly, when Judy was doing Spinal Touch on me, she commented on how my shoulders aren't nearly so rounded as they have been in the past. Maybe this is working.
