Today was a friend's wedding. I've been asked a lot throughout the pregnancy if I miss alcohol. Sometimes I miss a good old rum and diet coke but for the most part I don't miss it at all. Especially for me, after even just two drinks I tend to have a hangover the next day. I will NEVER miss that...

This morning I had to drop off my dog, Maddie to be sedated. She tenses up so much around the vet and she's already solid muscle that the vet has been unable to determine if she has a torn ACL. I don't know if you remember from previous posts but since early July I have had to confine one of my blac...

Today I went to the doctor for a "just in case visit." Last night I had a terrible night of yes, more pain. I had just gone on a walk and when I got home had what felt like a contraction (just really low, painful cramping and it went into my back) for about 30 seconds. I ended up having a total o...

I read some interesting things today about being pregnant at 32 weeks. Typically the baby is now head down towards the vaginal canal in preparation for delivery. It is also getting increasingly smaller in there and in the next few weeks I will probably not be feeling the baby do nearly as many acr...

There are a lot of things I was unaware of before becoming pregnant. Take bedding in the crib for example, bumpers are frowned upon now a days. My friend who recently had a baby took a tour of the hospital the month before she was to deliver and they told her not to have bumpers in the crib. She ...

CONTINUED FROM YESTERDAY, 8/15, Sunday: I was right in the middle of my drama at the baby shower. My husband was splitting his time between a work dinner and the baby shower and needless to say, once the power went out I called him as quickly as I could. There was no way my dogs were staying in that...

I asked you how yesterday how I would be able to entertain when I felt so shaky from getting sick all morning, remember? My husband and I were having an evening baby shower with our friends. Two of my best friends threw the shower at our house so I wouldn't have to travel and all the presents woul...

I started off the day extremely nauseous. Next thing I know I was hurling over the toilet - everything that could possibly be in my stomach was out. The most frustrating part is, while I'm getting so sick I always pee my pants. Ugh! How embarrassing and gross! I hope it's not because I was out ...

I haven't done a pool day in a few weeks so I decided after a stressful week it would be a great idea. I could take my book and lounge on a raft all day. This ended up being the only way I was going to survive a pool day. It was about 96 with another high heat index that caused a h...

Fears. As the expected due date gets closer I realize I have a lot of fears taking over me. I usually can only sleep until about 4 in the morning and then I lie there until 7, fall asleep for an hour, and wake up for the day. While I'm trying to fall back asleep usually all my worries, stresses, and...
