Yesterday we said some words and signed some papers at the registry office and now my best friend is officially my husband...! ☀️ Afternoon tea with the families and a nap in the botanical gardens 🌺 I’ve never felt more calm and confident about anything in my life before 🥰 #itsofficial #justmarried #newlyweds #loveandalliscoming

Bump update- Apparently my uterus is currently the size of a football and baby is the size of an aubergine inside ⚽️🍆 Seems legit 🤷🏼‍♀️ #25weekspregnant #25weeks #pregnant #pregnancy #bump #babybump #growingababy #loveandalliscoming

Its official, I have developed pregnancy-related pelvic girdle pain 😔 PPGP affects 1 in 5 pregnant women, and is caused by those lovely relaxin pregnancy hormones making all of the ligaments in the body a bit looser than usual so that the joints can move apart easier in preparation for child birth- useful! 👍🏼 But an unfortunate side effect of this is that it can cause pain for some women- less useful! 👎🏼 It’s literally only a millimetre of movement between the joints in the pelvis, the pubis symphasis at the front and si joints at the back, but the sensations can range from a constant dull ache to constant sharp pain. Not nice💥 It’s particularly aggravated by anything where the hips aren’t level- so walking any distance, moving between postures, sitting with legs or feet crossed, sitting with legs out to one side, changing gears in the car etc. etc. AND by anything where the feet are more than hip width distance apart... which in terms of yoga postures feels like... everything! 🤷🏼‍♀️ There’s no fix with PPGP, no amount of physio can prevent it, it’s just a case of monitoring and managing the symptoms until baby comes, and then things should return back to normal on their own 🥳 So no more sitting cross legged for me for the next 4 months...! I’m still teaching but will be using my wonderful students to demonstrate, while I talk through and adjust. It’s time to really put into practise all that acceptance, patience and grace 🙏🏽 #comeonbaby #pregnancy #pelvicpain #ppgp #pregnant #pregnantyogateacher #pregnancysymptoms #24weekspregnant #pelvicgirdlepain #relaxin #patience #acceptance #grace #loveandalliscoming
