 I have set some goals for myself as far as scrapbooking. Meredith’s is still not done. Neither is my wedding album. I’ve since started digital scrapbooking, which is easier and more realistic with children, because I can sit down for twenty minutes and get a bit done and not have to worry about set [...]  I finally got brave enough to watch Fiona’s birth video, and I’m glad I did. It gave me a better idea of some of the timeline (like, for instance, I actually only pushed for about 5 minutes this time around!) and made me realize that I wasn’t as loud as I thought, [...]  Fiona Siobhan was born this morning at 10:39am after an intense labour! Contractions really started/picked up at 2am, they were less than 2 minutes apart and over a minute long by about 4 or 5 (and checking myself I guessed I was probably 6 or 7 cm dilated already), then they just petered out [...] I just realized it’s been over a month since I last posted. There are so many ideas and posts floating around in my head and half finished as drafts, it surprises me a bit I haven’t published any of them. We have been busy though. My mom came out for a last minute visit [...]  Meredith and I were lying in bed together this morning and the baby was rolling and kicking quite vigorously. I asked Meredith if she wants to feel the baby and she nodded so I put her hand on my belly. It took a couple of tries, but eventually the baby did kick right where [...]  Pregnancy-wise things are still pretty uneventful. Kris felt the baby for the first time last Wednesday. He/she moves around pretty much every evening for a while now. I feel him intermittently throughout the day too, but it’s most reliable in the evenings right now. We haven’t scheduled an ultrasound and didn’t plan to, though [...] We heard the heartbeat tonight. It was the first appointment. (It’s a recording of a recording, so it’s not super clear.) Honestly, I didn’t really feel that we even needed to go. She checked my bp which I knew was fine, measured my fundus which I’ve measured myself, etc. But I really like [...]  We were never great about getting belly pictures when I was pregnant with Meredith, but at least we managed to do it every couple of weeks or so. We’ve been even worse with this baby. We finally did get a few today though, and I thought I would share what we have so far [...]  I can’t believe I’m already in the second trimester. It seems unreal that a third of the pregnancy would already be done. Though first trimester is a bit deceptive, since the first two weeks you’re not actually pregnant and the second two weeks you normally don’t know about it. And first trimester is only [...] For those that missed it in the last post, I added a subtle (or maybe not-so-subtle) clue to some big news. Next March, we will be welcoming baby number two to our family. I’m still really early (I will be 5 weeks on Monday), so we’re not officially announcing anything even to family for [...] |
