Update on life with Liam
I really wanted to make an update about my first ALMOST 2 weeks with Liam and as a Mommy. I will in the future post my labor and delivery story but for now i’d really like to focus on how things have been. The first few days were one of the most difficult of my entire life. I had very bad mood swings and could cry at almost anything. I kept feeling like Dan was going to leave me (for no...

Bloody Show TMI
So i was up all night last night with a lot of cramping/soreness. I’m pretty sure i lost my bloody show (it was dark brown/dark red like mucousy discharge) and it kept coming for a few hours. I was worried and ended up calling my doctor at like 2 AM..i didn’t know they would directly put me through to him, in fact i feel like an ass for waking him up because he said it was most likely...

Great news
I went to my appointment today and i’m 3 cm dilated and my cervix is very soft and thin. The doctor is amazed by my progress and thinks i can go into active labor any day now. I’ve been walking and exercising lightly all day and am now going to try nipple stimulation. I’m definitely all for getting Liam out a little early. 38 weeks and 2 days after midnight so i think its...

38 weeks pregnant and very blah
The days are getting just as rough as my nights. I’m exhausted and extremely moody/depressed all the time. i HATE hate hate feeling like this. These are the last 2 weeks before Liam is born and i feel like i’m wasting them on laying around all day and doing nothing but sulking and complaining. I want my Liam here so badly. I’m 38 weeks today and my doctors appointment is...

What a night
Just spent the night in labor and delivery. I was running around all day and ran up the stairs and thought for sure my water had broke. I drenched my pants and started freaking out. I called the doctor and they told me to get to the hospital to get checked out. Arrived there and filled out the five million papers for my insurance, babies insurance, and other stuff. Then they walked me up to labor...

Really good news
Well today me and Dan went and did our tax returns. Neither of us had worked the whole year last year so we got significantly less then we did last year but still enough to where its going to help a lot. We’re going to receive the money by February 15th which is great to help out and all. The really good news is Dan’s mom was able to swing him a cafeteria job for 20 hours a week and...

Lack of sleep
Can’t sleep…i feel like i’m losing it. I’ve been up every 30 minutes all night. I fell asleep at 3 after tossing and turning for an hour…then woke up 3 times to pee and my little sister woke me up whining loudly today at 7 in the morning. I really couldve killed her as i had just found a perfect position and was drifting off nicely to sleep. Now i’m seriously up...

Craving
I want nothing more then a huge gooey cheeseburger right now…possibly a fishofillet..and a large fry. Craving HARDCORE…you don’t even know. Luckily Dan gets home in 50 minutes and i’m making his ass take me to McDonalds. There is like no food in this house until Friday and i am crazy hungry. This is the last month where i’ll be able to consume gross things like this...

Updates
So its been quite an eventful week. Have been getting so much done with the nursery but still have a bunch of stuff coming in the mail and clothes to wash and still feeling a bit overwhelmed. The crib is still (mostly) in pieces. I’ve got the changing table put together and stuff organized. The pack and play with the bassinet came and looks beautiful in the room. I set up the highchair,...

Sucky mood
Doctors appointments suck these days. They’re boring, they take an eternity (translate eternity to an hour..and that’s just waiting for the doctor) and they get me nowhere. I have normal BP 110/70 every time..the babies heartbeat is always perfect and the rest is just a bunch of nothing. We waste gas to go out there every week and i never find out anything. Maybe its just me being...

36 weeks pregnant today & bad news.
So i’m officially a week away from being full term but i just got probably the worst news ever. Dan gets 40 hours at his job at the school but they have not made him officially full time…they plan to in the future but its not in the cards yet. That was fine with us as long as he was getting those 40 hours..insurance doesn’t matter because we’re all covered. Well apparently...

30 days till my due date..
Time keeps moving forward but i feel like i’m crawling..and i can only begin to imagine that this is going to be the slowest month of my life yet. I have been sick for days now (horribly sore throat, cough, stuffy nose, fever on and off). Thats the non pregnant part of it….now this pregnancy is kicking my ass. My back is killing me, my stomach, legs, feet. His kicks and rolls are...

Sickity sick
I have had a cold/sore throat for the past two days but tonight it seems to be turning into a lot more then that. ugh i feel sick out of my mind…have a throbbing headache, possible fever, and very delirious. To tell you the truth i don’t know why i’m still up. I really need to go lay down. I’m way too scared to take anything for this and need to let it ride out but this...
kissedyougoodnight asked: I've never had a problem with parents choice diapers. And I love their wipes. They changed the package and they seal better now! Everyone has different preferences with diapers. As long as you have some for when he comes home I wouldn't stress that much. They grow out of diapers fast!! So don't stock up all on one size. And in reguards to the crib and everything else, don't...
kissedyougoodnight asked: Are you going to get all name brand diapers? Or will you be good with generic? Toys R us usually has their diapers for cheap!! And Parent's Choice from Walmart is really good too and fairly cheap for diapers. I would sign up for Toys r Us rewards if you haven't. Get coupons and stuff.

So far behind
Had my doctors appointment today and it was completely pointless. Apparently they messed up and had me come in for a vaginal exam when i have to be 36 weeks for that..i’m 36 weeks next week so back i go. Of course i’m now going to be on weekly visits anyway, its just the point. I waited in the office for 20 minutes after getting there on time and then they had me back in the room for a...
