It has been a hectic couple of weeks at our house. I didn’t end up finding time to get Noa’s three week update written, so I’ll just write about the last two weeks in one! First off, we caught our second cold since Noa has been born, and unfortunately she caught it too. Its going […]

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 […]
Its getting down to the wire! Week 34 has been met with some more discomfort as baby girl gets ever bigger. I’ve had the round ligament spasms, and a heaviness in my pelvis. Once in a while, she pushes with her feet and her head makes my cervix hurt. My lower back aches off and […]
Its week 33! I had my Ob appointment yesterday afternoon and had a little scare. My systolic blood pressure was in the 140s. They ended up re checking it before I left and it had dropped into the 130s, but that is still high for me. Pre pregnancy and in early pregnancy I usually run […]
