I think I threw out my back

Maybe? I'm not sure - or I pulled something. 

I was bending over to pick something up, and I felt it kinda seize up and pull with a weird twinge type feeling in my lower back. I was kinda stuck bet over for a second and was able to lean/hold onto Em's little house. It hurt, but only enough for me to say 'oh shit' not cry out and no tears. 

But it really freaking hurts! It's sore, I can't really bend or pick things up. So, what do I do? I took some Excedrine. H is out for the day (he has training and class tonight back to back) so it's just me. I have to pick up Emily from time to time (like to put her in her crib). Do I just do the absolute minimum and rest when I can? 

I don't think it's painful enough to go to Urgent Care or anything like that - plus I don't really want to haul Em places. I'd have to carry her anyway so it wouldn't really be worth it IMO.

If you have one of those heat up rice bags, it really helps. Seriously take it easy. :/
