You sure do have a hectic life. Why the blue light?

I would love to read your birth story. Have you posted it anywhere?

Congratulations on your baby girl!

I found your blog via Google while searching for Pregnancy And Back Pain and your post regarding TTC After Miscarriage Natural Instinct? looks very interesting to me. I have seen many sites before and most of them do not look this good. I cannot wait to let my friends know about this site. Thanks for the excellent content.

Congrats Stacie!

We are headed your way but not until the spring - the kids and I are doing an extended vacation visiting family - but you can bet I’ll be contacting you for info about the island! LOL

Congratulations! Wow, that baby is in the range of my baby’s birth weights. My smallest was 6 lbs 11 oz, and biggest was 7 lbs 13 oz.

I am so happy for you. Blessings!

I hope you are right! Wouldn’t that be grand???

I laugh because I accidentally picked the day of my daughter’s birth. I figured the sonograms were wrong, went from the EDD on the later sonograms, and counted back because I usually have my babies early. My kids were having fun guessing the days, and I guessed the 13th of September (due the 10th by 1st sonogram, and the 18th by later ones). My 9 year old daugher wrote it on a calendar she kept. Well, she pulled it out after I brought the baby home, and lo and behold, I had picked the date exactly.

On the day I had Jillian, I recall sitting at the computer timing those contractions. It was morning, and I was petrified of having the baby at home with just the kids. I called my husband, and my step mom. Everything stopped right after I called, for about an hour. Everyone got here, and my contractions were irregular. We ate lunch, got the kids going on school lessons. Finally, my husband, who was off work, wanted to go in. He had me call, and the doctor wanted me to go in. Even as I pulled up to the hospital, I thought they might send me home. My husband brought in the bags and I said, “you could have left them.” I had just seen a couple with a fully pregnant woman leaving with a cart full of stuff, she had just been checked and sent home. Well, we checked in and 5 hours later I was holding my baby. It’s really hard for us “grand mulitparas” to be able to tell when it’s real because it feels real for days. Good luck getting to the hospital in time with not too much time. I personally wish I would have waited two more hours, there was way too much intervention and internal checking for my taste. Just a few more hours.

Blessings to you and hopes you have a wonderful delivery.

Congrats on the sale of the house!

I had to laugh at your maternity clothes just not fitting anymore, toward the end of being pregnant with my son I was that way too.

We may be moving to your area, I’ll definitely be hitting you up with lots of questions should that happen.
