do you have time/funds for a massage? your joint problem might be new mom stress taking itself out on your jaw. i get jaw pain with my headaches which are usually stress and/or barometer related. good luck!

You're soo right, it's totally new mom stress...
If it gets worse, I'll see about getting a massage or seeing my chiropractor. I'm going to give it a few weeks to see if it will clear up on it's own...by me taking it easy with eating soft foods, limiting movement, hot/ice packs, and massaging my face. It was a little advice that I got from some TMJ site. They said that most cases clear up on their own....so, we'll see. I'm trying to lower my stress, too...but it is kind of hard because I didn't really realize that I was even stressed in the first place. I guess I am...it's a different kind of stress, eh?

definitly a diff kind of stress. but you know in your subconcious that you're responsible for that woman-to-be. No matter how capable you are of handling the job (which you are VERY capable) it is still stressful. more of a primal stress then your prolly used to :P

Even good stress leads to tension. I second the massage idea - perhaps N8 could help with that a bit? Sorry to hear you're so uncomfortable!!
