Today we took one of the classes our hospital offers. It was just an hour and a half class that is a tour of the facility. They also show a video which provides in detail the benefits of breast feeding, what to do to to prepare for delivery, where ...

6 more weeks! It seems so long yet so short when I think of how far I've come. As much as I've had a challenging pregnancy I'm so grateful that I've been able to carry this baby to 34 weeks thus far. I have seen friends and family in recent months ex...

Hormones can be an irritating part of life for women no matter what stage. I just happened to forget how irritating until I started having a period again and then pregnancy hormones. Remember? Since I was 19 I have not had to deal with PMS because...

I was at 33 weeks on Sunday. Currently my baby is gaining about 1/2 a pound a week. He could grow up to another full inch this week; I mean, really, where does he have to go? I feel so inflated that I'm going to pop already! When he moves it actually...

Is 6-8 weeks enough time for the working Mom on maternity leave? To someone that has never been pregnant I think that sounds like a substantial amount of time. I don't mean it to sound like all the sudden I'm some kind of "know it all" but I do know ...

I think I may have gotten "too low" on the dance floor last night. We got home about 1 am which always makes me feel rough the next day while I've been pregnant. Lack of sleep makes me feel like I've been hit by a truck the following morning. My unde...

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 hav...

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 sin...
