4 weeks and 4 days. Apparently that's to be magic #! Last night my baby girl and I figured out a way for me to get in the pool without hurting myself. I just lounged in the water for about an hour and a half. It was so lovely. When I got out all my muscle pains were gone. No sharp pains in my abdomen. No intense soreness in my back. It was heaven. I was cautiously optimistic since I swam in a friends pool 2 weeks prior and though it took away the pain for that moment the pains returned within an hour or two. But I laid on my stomach/side last night. Oh sweet comfort! Sleeping on my back for a month was misery:) I didn't take any pain meds muscle relaxers. Downside to that is my body is so used to being knocked out that I think I slept 15 min of every hour and I'm exhausted this morning. I "got up" this morning and still no pain. I am sitting up straight, able to bend over and not calling for help to getty shorts on;) Could it Be? Could the pain finally be gone? My mind says try and drive today. But then I think don't push it:) But for now I'm just going to enjoy not hurting and hope it lasts!

I'm so happy for you I hope you continue to be pain free.

That's awesome! You should definitely plan on returning to the pool as a preventative. Sometimes forcing yourself to relax like that is enough to loosen those tight muscles.
