Then, my second pregnancy I got more migraines, and my husband would let me get pregnancy massages a couple of times a month (this is on a regional f.o.'s salary). Now, it just seems like he thinks I should just be able to deal with them or something...no springing for the extras. Don't get me wrong, he's great about watching the kids and helping out while he is home, but I just think after 7 years he just thinks I should have gotten used to the pregnancy migraines by now....or he pulls the get your spiritual life in order and things will get better mumbo jumbo.

I think I will have to do the whole pregnancy massage thing again and I did call about the chiropractor and our insurance. For all you expressjet wives on the epo plan, it is 30 dollars each visit...kind of expensive, but right now, I am definetly willing to pay it.
Go for it girl, 7 pregnancies, 6 kids..... you deserve it!

30.00 may seem a little pricey, but absolutely justifiable! Goodness, do both- a massage and a visit to the chiropractor. You must take care of you first before you can take care of others!

Good Luck and ENJOY!
