I figured I'd have a belly that bumped bars from time to time, fingers that would be bigger than normal, and a back that would ache. Spoiler alert: I did. There was nothing to do but laugh and go with it as little boy decided to take up core real estate. 1. Bumper Belly This one I saw coming. It took about 7 months, but it definitely happened. Goodbye, accidentals; hello, surprise muffling of bars. But it was a great way to break awkward tension in lessons. So there's that. 2. Bye, Bye Balance They tell you that things like r...
