Some of my favorite Ivy memories are about my Reiki Master attunment. I had been eagerly awaiting it when the class was offered during my pregnancy. I'm the type of mom who won't even cut my kids' hair without it being their decision, so I was really torn. But ultimately I figured that the timing was for a reason, and I became a Reiki Master/ ( Read more... )

I do believe that this baby might be coming soon. I just hope it waits until at least Tuesday! Although tomorrow *night* could theoretically work...

I was so tired last night & this morning. My legs and back were really sore, so Josh cleaned out the tub and made me a nice bubble bath with rose bath salts (which he made for me). So sweet! I got out ( Read more... )

Folks have been asking if I've popped this kid out for about three or four months now. I got big suddenly and obviously. The due date is still about a month away (August 26), but I still don't think it will be that long. I'm 36 weeks today - and running out of room ( Read more... )

Well, I am officially 30 weeks! How exciting! I have never made it to 40 weeks before, so that means that there's a good chance I will have this baby "early" as well. Eden was born 15 days before her EDD, and Ivy was born 10 days before her EDD. I've been wondering when this baby will make its appearance. Guessing games seem popular, so feel free ( Read more... )

Dear World,

Believe it or not, it is totally okay to prefer one or the other. This does not make someone a bad parent, this does not mean they will be disappointed with their child, this does not mean they will treat it any differently, and it does not mean they have their priorities off-track and need a lecture.

No, really!

( Maybe it's hormones. Or maybe people are douches. Either way, it got a bit ranty. )

I wasn't feeling very well earlier (short discussion on my 'Ladies Only' filter), and I talked to my midwife, who has put me on bedrest for a day or two. I'm supposed to drink lots of water and not do anything, and call her in the morning if I'm still cramping up. If so, we might schedule an ultrasound just to check on things. Otherwise, she'll ( Read more... )

Let's talk about pregnancy! I haven't talked about it too much yet, which is kind of surprising. It's interesting to see how this pregnancy is already different from my others. I hope it's because it's a boy, though I suppose it could be because I'm older and have changed quite a bit over the years.

( In case you don't care for pregnancy talk )

Hello, friends! No, I haven't dropped off the face of the earth. We've just been trying to deal with stuff at the house. I may address some of that later, since things seem to be rough in the majority of aspects right now, but for now I'll mostly try to focus on the positive ( Read more... )
