The miracle of holistic motherty

Oh FUCK ME, am I sick of pre-natal yoga. First of all, I fucking hate yoga. HATE IT. It is a bullshit industry, a naive person's Pilates, monetized cultural appropriation and appropriated from one of the most viciously colonial, racist, misogynistic cultures in human history at that, and what's more FUCK DO I HATE YOGA.

It was tedious enough when I was pregnant with Godzilla but at least then I had the time and emotional energy to burn, not already having a kid running around to take care of and to not accidentally throttle when my upitty hormones got the better of me and he was messing up some sheets, or something. But now it just feels like this fucking stupid, terrible drain on my time at a time when I have no time, and energy when I have no energy. And the fucking stupid music! Oh FUCK ME do I hate it.

But if I don't do it, my back spasms to the degree that I can't do anything. The general physical and joint discomfort becomes unbearable. Because the first trimester of pregnancy is basically cancer.

FUCK.

FUCK.

Well. Time to do some yoga.

I feel for you.

I hate yoga.

Or maybe that's 'I hate yoga classes'.

Mind you, I hated admitting that Reiki 'worked' for me (lowering the fucking annoying high BP) - but it did. And it was my big pregnancy secret. When asked what I had done to reduce the BP I just told the midwife I'd started smoking again. She didn't laugh.
