We’re Still Here!

April 9, 2012

I swore that I’d blog more this pregnancy that I did my last . . . and then fell off the radar for two weeks! Way to go, me! But we’re still here! Morning sickness had been kicking my butt, and then I started taking Unisom and Vitamin B6, which I think has helped (though [...]

January 30, 2012

I like to be PREPARED for things. I do research. I read books. I make lists. I plan. But here is what pregnancy has taught me – research, lists, and plans BE DAMNED! Your body will darned well do whatever it feels like whenever it feels like, regardless of what the books, your friends, or [...]

Nathan’s (Obligatory) Birth Post

June 18, 2011

Nathan’s birth (just like my pregnancy) was a string of constant surprises and left turns and being blindsided by what I wasn’t prepared for, and overly prepared for things that never happened. There was surprise, and intrigue, and also bodily fluids (which I’ve tried to keep to a minimum, but was inevitable. If you’re squeamish, [...]

(I have been trying for weeks to type up the story of Nathan’s birth, but I just don’t have TIME! It’s like I have an infant expecting me to be at their beck and call or something . . . sheesh! So this will be the short version. I’ll type up the long version eventually. [...]

A year ago today, I started this blog. J and I were living in a 1 bedroom condo, we were both working full-time, and I was just starting to look into our finances and talk to doctors about getting pregnant sooner rather than later. Today, I’m sitting at my computer in the middle of the [...]

Everyone loves seeing how gigantic pregnant women get, and I’ve gotten LOTS of requests for photos of my baby bump, but I have never been more averse to having my picture taken than I have during all of this (I blame it on trying to grow my hair out, refusing to buy any new clothing [...]

And The Verdict Is . . .

January 26, 2011

We’re having a BOY! (The ultrasound tech was very definitive on this. Apparently we’re having a not-very-modest little boy! I can’t say I’m surprised!) So yes, I know that by now most people have known for months that it’s a boy, but I couldn’t ask people to vote on what it would be and then [...]

In the span of about a week, I went from, “Hmm, my pants are hard to button,” to, “Wow, I can’t button my pants at all (unless I’m prepared to give up breathing, which I’m kind of fond of),” to “Holy crap, I can hardly zip these things up half way!” (Today I finally caved [...]

Note To Self – Be Kind To Self

September 29, 2010

Oh, the best laid plans . . . When I was planning to leave work and stay at home during my pregnancy, I spent a fair amount of time thinking about the kind of structure I would impose on myself once I was no longer employed. As hard as I try to be comfortable with [...]
