another week?

I had my appointment today. No big changes… my doctor said I’m a little closer to 2 cm now. They sent me to the hospital for an ultrasound and to give the baby a stress test, and everything checks out good. Samantha is looking very healthy and perfectly content just where she is.
My next appointment [...]

appointment today

No baby yet! I have a doctors appointment today at 11, so maybe I’ll have something interesting to report after that. I’m guessing today she’ll probably give me an induction date. I’d really rather not be induced, but it would be nice to know when that light at the end of the tunnel will be [...]

May Baby

It’s my due date today. Still pregnant. Looks like I’m going to have a May baby. Which is fine with me. Emeralds are nice. And Lily of the Valley is the flower for May, which happens to be my favorite flower.

Still pregnant. Still having quite painful contractions that are useless. You don’t mind the pain so much when you know you’re getting something out of it. This is just dumb. Last night I was hit by one (just one) so strong that I changed my mind about this whole labor and delivery thing. I don’t [...]

I’m due April 30th to give birth to my second child. My first, a little boy named Anthony, was born 6 years ago. At this point, I’m so impatient I might just lose my mind. I know I’m due in a week, but the thought that I could potentially go a week past that makes [...]
