Question

I am on my knees quite a bit. I have thought of using those gardening knee guards, but I'm not sure hubby would like the looks of it. Just looking for opinions, my knees are so sore.

Answer 1

gerg

Answer 2

Try using the bed a bit more. Or I found if you prop a leg on a chair and bend it follows thru with the same effect

Answer 3

if you're on your knees in front of him that much I don't think he should care.  Bravo!  he's a lucky man..........

Answer 4

try wearing pants...?

Answer 5

That's pretty extreme that you are on your knees so much they are hurting.  Maybe get off them for awhile? Give it a rest?!  If you feel you need to "get on your knees" obsessively some more, do it in the bed.  Nice and soft...no knee injuries.

Answer 6

Put a pillow under them or just stand and grab your ankles

Answer 7

Hahahhahahahahaaaa.....  Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Anyway, have you considered kneeling on decorative throw pillows or something like that??

Answer 8

MMMM interesting way of NOT saying what you are saying...get a good pillow...or maybe try a different position...that activity can be accomplished without you kneeling unless your kneeling is part of the fun for him...but I bet it is only a very small part and can be worked around.  good luck and keep practicing

Answer 9

I wish my girl had your problem....  Just put a pillow under you, or a folded up towel, which you can later use for cleanup

Answer 10

Are you complaining or bragging?

Answer 11

Wear kneepads. Invest in the more expensive ones, and you'll be happier.

Answer 12

For you Raven I would have soft rubber floors installed in every room in the house!  

Answer 13

Roofers knee pads. Thicker, more comfortable and made specifically for a gal like you whose genuflecting all day.

That is assuming you're praying a lot. But they'll work just as well for any other 'activities' you may dream up.

Answer 14

get some catchers gear

Answer 15

Well that's classy.

Answer 16

Can't you let him lay down and you can go around him- the bed is pretty soft and shouldn't hurt your knees- also he can relax while you obviously do your thing! Way to go.  

Answer 17

There is a  device that is sold at most farm stores that has saved a record number of rural marriages and spared millions of dollars for knee replacement surgery.  It's a seat that has a spring attached underneath, instead of legs.  It was developed for milking cows.

Answer 18

Goddess,

I think you need the most help out of all the questions I've read here.  I can help you.  You need to go to Home Depot and ask them for Tile Laying Knee guards.  Strap those suckers on your knees and you are good to go to perform your work.  Take as long as you like.

And don't you worry about looks.  He won't care what they look like if you get get your work done to satisfaction.

Answer 19

Well unfortunately, they dont make attractive items in knee protection that I know of.  But I suppose if your on your knees, the pads would just be on the ground anyway.

And if your husband has you on your knees, I would imagine he would be concentrating more on your behind then your knees and it probably wouldnt be noticed.

Answer 20

great question..  i don't really care how you figure it out... as long as you don't cut into my time  : )  

Answer 21

If your not using those pillows....then can I borrow them quick because I think I need to lie down in a dark room after picturing you on those little knees

Answer 22

OM friggin G

Answer 23

Do you mean your hubby won't like seeing you on your knees?  Only if he catches you!  Seriously, I don't think he'll be looking at the knee pads.  If he does complain just cut him off and he'll never complain again.  If your knees still hurt try getting on your back.

Answer 24

where jeans and use a old pillow to put your knees on.

Answer 25

You sure this question related to marriage and divorce category?  

Answer 26

Try squatting instead...or a very short stool.

Answer 27

Pillow!

Answer 28

As an alternative- standing, bend over the couch, a table etc -  

Answer 29

how about one of those wedge pillow things.  They probably take a little strain off the knees.

or

Maybe a s*x swing so you don't have to be on your knees at all!
