When was the last time you pampered yourself?

Everyone needs to give themselves a little TLC at least once a day even if it's just ten or fifteen minutes.

When was the last time you pampered yourself nd how did you pamper yourself?

I'll start. Yesterday I soaked my feet in a pan of baby oil while I watched Matrix Revolutions.

i took a bath last week without any helpers bringing me bath toys....does that count?

I'll never understand how you can never see or hear from any body until you walk into the bathroom and close the door...

You should get a stealth award!

It's like magic. I can have all the kids completely ignoring me, dog too. the minute i shut the door they are passing notes under the door. Dog nose is under the door, a paw now and then too. Heck, dd will open the door waltz on in and strike up a conversation. Bath or shower; doesn't matter.

I honestly think that the all-by-myself-bath last week was the last bit of pampering i did for myself.

Well I really dont have any time for pampering.

I guess I would say about 2 months ago when I got my hair cut. Does that even count?

its been a long long time since i've had some pampering. i would have to say at least 6 months ago..........

I got a bottle of oh-so-wonderful smelling Victoria's Secret lotion for Christmas and every now and then I'll put some all over me instead of just my legs. Last week I ordered the body cream (I like something a bit thicker for my legs as they really get dry), the shower gel and the body spray in the same scent for pampering purposes.

Another way I pamper myself is I make sure I get adequate (time-wise) and quality sleep.

I splurge on $30 haircuts but I color my hair myself.

A week ago, my husband was working and I had the day off. I soaked my feet in Epsom salts, and drank some chamomile tea.
After I decided that was so nice I went up and took a hot bath, I rubbed down with lotion and put on my extra soft sweats and fuzzy slippers. Then I watched a movie and had another cup of tea.

I've been trying to get at least 8 hours of sleep...for now!! When the baby gets here, ...sigh... goodbye sleep time...

Hey Suzysaver, that sounded very relaxing. Can't wait to be able to get into the bathtub. Well, I could get in it, just not OUT of it!! LOL!!

I have a massage everyother week.

**wendy** · 03-27-2006, 02:51 PM

Someone told me recently that there's a massage therapy center in the neighboring town that only take in pregnant women. They have special tables where moms-to-be can lay on with a cut out for the belly.

Has anyone tried this?

I am having one of my classmates come over to my house tonight. We just finished our reflexology class and will be exchanging with each other. That means I get my feet done and then I do hers. Its really a beautiful exchange when you know other body workers!
