Re: Sunday Ticker Change 7/16
2. Cauliflower, 1.24 pounds
3. Huge nothing fits and holy heartburn
4. None this week
5. Finally decided what we are going to do with their children in the rooming situation upstairs bonus room is not being turned into big girls bedroom.
6. Got a find a name for this kid, had a beautiful name picked out but then my 11 year old niece decided that it belong to her and we were stealing her baby name.
2. Acorn squash
3. Sweaty but ok
4. Thursday appt I'm on every 2 weeks now
5. : My husband left for his deployment today
6. Buy crib mattress, wash baby stuff and find a pediatrician.... I'm too scared to look at the full list lol
2. 16 inches tall (40.6 cm) and weighs about 2.5 lbs. (1.15 kg).
3. A little bit out of breath every now and then, but other than that, feeling excellent!
4. Monthly OB appt. on Friday.
5. Closed and moved into our first home this weekend! We also started our Lamaze classes last Tuesday.
6. Almost everything except baby clothes. Since we were in the process of getting our new house, we put all the baby buying on hold. Will start with buying everything this week!
Aaww your DH left for deployment... Must be so hard to go through this while you're expecting your bundle of love. Will he be out for a long time? I hope he's back with you when the baby comes. Big hugs!
@cranburyposh yeah on buying a house and moving in. Try not to let the Lamaze class stress you out. Sometimes they do and sometimes they have the opposite effect.
Woowhoo to to both of you for getting things ready!
@kncollins09 Oh my... That's really tough!!! I admire you both for enduring the deployment during the pregnancy and arrival. You gotta be a strong woman to deal with this on your own while he's serving our country, too many sacrifices made. My respect to you and him. Will he be able to see the delivery via webcam? I remember seeing something about that on the news a while ago - military staff able to be virtually present during the birth of their babies while in deployment.
@kncollins09 webcamming it is a great idea! That way he is still there. Having him here for most of the pregnancy was pretty cool though. If you need to vent or chat feel free to message me.
Just a FYI ladies we started a new facebook group that is available to everyone in october. Here is the link if you want to join. It is set to secret but it will be very laid back and not based on how active you are.
@asickles98 Oh I thought you had a bad experience with the class that caused you to be stressed out. We're actually enjoying the classes a lot, there's tons of great information and hands-on practice with pain management exercises that we're getting. In Lamaze there are no "rules to follow", everyone is different - so you use whatever tools and technique works best for you out of everything that you're thought. Yeah, your OB was right to tell you that either way; whether you attend the classes or not, your body is naturally designed to go into labor and childbirth, and your baby will come out as long as you push lol! But since I want an all natural unmedicated birth (and this one is my first birth ever), enrolling into it was ideal and much needed for me and my DH to get as much as information as possible and shoot for a good experience. Glad everything went well with your births!!!
