Noa is two weeks old already! I’ll say it till the end of time, this is going way too fast. She is growing and changing so much. She is already losing that newborn look. She outgrew preemie clothes already and newborn things are fitting her really well. She’s getting a little milk belly now too. […]
Yesterday Noa turned one week old. Time is flying by, I just want her to stay this little forever. She is definitely coming out of that sleepy phase. Yesterday she was more alert when she was awake, and was awake for longer when she was up. She stayed up a teeny bit later last night […]
Just a heads up, this post has TMI and possibly triggers for some people. I went to bed On Friday September 13 feeling like my pregnancy was never going to end. This particular Friday the 13th just so happened to coincide with a full harvest moon that night as well. I fell asleep somewhere between […]
Wow is all I can say! Our sweet little babe made a grand entrance into the world this morning, a short 2 hours and 9 minutes after my water broke. We had only been at the hospital for just under an hour and a half before she was born and she came out sunny side […]
I can’t believe I’m writing this post right now. I was so sure that she would’ve been here by now! I had my doctor’s appointment yesterday where he told me that I am between 5-6cm dilated. I was seriously disappointed to hear that. I was so sure that I’d be at a seven again and […]
At my doctors appointment Thursday, they told me I was nearly at five cm dilated and 50% effaced. I was kind of surprised that I wasn’t even a solid five yet, given that I was already a seven at that point with Amalia. Every pregnancy is truly different though. The past few days have been […]
Its week 37! We have officially made it to “term” so baby girl can come any time now. I have my doctor’s appointment later this morning, so we shall see where we are at this week. Things have been steady this week symptom-wise. I’m tired and achy and ready to meet her. Heartburn, sonic ice, […]
Its September! The home stretch is finally here and I couldn’t be more excited. I just wanted to jot down a few things that may be pointing to her impending arrival in the coming weeks. The past couple of days, I’ve had lots more braxton hicks/prodromal contractions. They’ve been a lot stronger/uncomfortable. I find that […]
Its week 36 people! I am so ready to meet our baby girl! This week has been a little bit harder for me. My blood pressure is ever so slightly rising, week by week, and it is nearing the “high blood pressure” cut off of 140/90. So far my doctor doesn’t seem too concerned because […]
We’re 35 weeks in people! I had my doctor’s appointment yesterday where they told me that I’m between 1-2cm dilated, but not very effaced yet. I’ve lost 3lbs in the two weeks since my last appointment. My belly is definitely growing though, so its me that lost the weight and not baby. My blood pressure […]
