  • 4. What is/was your biggest L&D fear/concern?I was scared about the pushing. And really, it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. It was actually rather empowering.

  • I'm nowhere near hitting silver, but I'll play along anyhow. It's slow at work today.

    1. What has been the best thing about your pregnancy?
    Feeling Little Girl move around, and knowing she's healthy (after a m/c in January and a rough first 16 wks with this pregnancy)

  • 7. What is your favorite gift that you have received for baby?I got a quilt from my former AP English teacher. She is my main motivation for why I became a teacher. I am now teaching at my former HS, and when she left the school, I got her position as AP teacher. The quilt is beautiful and she wrote a letter with it that makes it all the more meaningful.

  • 4. What is/was your biggest L&D fear/concern? Not too much, really.  I guess just the reality that after all that, I have a little life dependent on me.

  •  9. What brand of bottles will you use?
    We are using Breast Flow bottles. They mimic the way the baby would have to suck on the breast, thereby promoting good jaw development. It's kind of gimicky and expensive, but she likes them.

  • 4. What is/was your biggest L&D fear/concern?

    That I won't be able to push her out and will need a c-section.

    1. What has been the best thing about your pregnancy?

    I feel that it's brought DH and I together and reminded us that we can work really well as a team.  And of course, feeling my little blob move around-- I still get a kick out of it! :)

    This is really sweet! : )

  • 11. Are you going to use pacifiers?Yes. We are using them, but I think we made the mistake of giving her one too early. I guess we know next time for the next baby... I think it really interfered with breastfeeding and caused some of the latching issues that we had.We are using the Soothie brand- she won't take anything else. I am going to buy a Wubbanub later today to help keep it in her mouth when she sleeps!

  • 12. What's your opinion (if you have one) on the book "Babywise"?

    I don't know enough about it to have a completely informed opinion, but I've heard that it's very rigid and doesn't take into account baby's natural cues. I don't think it would be a system that I would like to follow, but to each his own, I suppose. : )

    4. What is/was your biggest L&D fear/concern?

    Lately, I keep looking down towards my girl parts (not like I can actually see them) and thinking about a ginormous baby coming out of there.  I try not to think about it too much, haha.  That, and being too tired to go through a day or so of labor. 

    It's pretty amazing how resilient that junk is. Mine feels mostly back to normal. I'll get back to you after I've had some sex... that, to me, is the true test!
