Meet Owen Edward
I started having contractions after my Dr appointment Monday afternoon where I was not dilated at all. They kept getting more intense until the point I woke up at 4am and couldn’t get back to sleep again. Tuesday night, I was in a lot of pain and the contractions were close together, but irregular. I […]
Waiting
Ha ha, three years ago today. I had fun reading that post. It’s comforting to know I’ve since addressed all of my concerns about having kids. One of the comments suggested I wait until I’m 29 :) Baby can come any day now. Just waiting. Been extra hormonal lately. Hard to sleep because there’s just […]
He’s Full Term Now!
I was going to post my 36 week picture, but we never took one. Here’s one from my work shower instead. Ishrat insisted everyone touch my belly, which was as awkward as it looks. I’ll post pictures from the friends shower once Julia posts them :) Everyone has been very generous. I can’t believe I […]
More Baby Updates
We had an ultrasound a couple weeks ago. Doctor was afraid baby was small, but he was actually on the big side. Also, he has a lot of hair. And he was breech. Since then, we’ve been trying to figure out if he’s turned or not. You’d think it’d be easy to tell. Mysterious large […]
Have Any Names Picked Out?
I get asked these same questions on a daily basis: How are you feeling? – still pretty good! When is the baby due again? – September 27th Boy or girl? – Boy Do you have any names picked out? – … So, we had a girl name that we liked. We decided on that years […]
The Second Trimester is Alright
I’ve written about the not so fun parts of pregnancy, but it’s not all bad. Here are some of the things I’ve been enjoying: My eating behaviors are socially acceptable. People expect me to be hungry and stuffing my face all the time now. In fact, I’ll often get food shoved in my face. It’s […]
Buying Things
So registering for baby stuff is hard. They need so many things! So many! I’ve been researching cloth diapers for months now and I still feel completely clueless. I think I’m going with these prefolds and these covers. If anyone has any product recommendations, they’re more than welcome to share. My 22 week picture and […]
Boy or Girl?
In a few hours, we’ll hopefully find out if our little one is a boy or a girl. Up until a couple years ago, I insisted our future child was going to be a girl. I wouldn’t entertain the notion that we had a 50% chance of having a boy. Nope. Definitely was going to […]
Thinking for Two
Twenty week picture + a pic of Noel, my parents’ dog they adopted last week from the shelter. She’s hilarious. Work has been fun. Studying, studying. Javascript and related technologies. Getting ready for my next project. And thought I’d share my most recent Toastmasters speech:
16 Weeks
This might have been the longest I’ve gone without posting. I was doing to do another Day in the Life, but I haven’t found a good day yet. Maybe next week. Today was my 16 week checkup that I was late for since I had to clean snow off my car (wtf?). So far, I’ve […]
