Gratuitous baby pictures

This one was taken yesterday morning after his first bath. This is how he always looks at me. His eyes are always wide open and his mouth is open like he’s trying to talk. It’s so dang cute! He’s such sweet baby. He’s hardly fussy at all. He just...

Had disagreement with the ped re. jaundice

My pediatrician thinks Finney is jaundiced. I can see that he is but all my babies have been and he looks the same as they did. It is normal infant jaundice in my opinion and I just don’t see the benefit to poking up my baby just to prove that. I would...

Finneas is here!

He weighed 9lbs 10 oz and was 22 inches long.

40wks 5 days appointment

Well I had an appointment with my midwife today. Measured 52cms, gained one more lb(58total), blood pressure still a little high(125/85), and she has NO idea what position he’s in. We heard the heartbeat strong on both sides and can’t feel where the feet are. LOL

I asked her to check...

Just a quick update to let everyone know that we are still waiting. My kids were 10 days over, 5 days over, and 12 days over(induced) so it could still be a while. I can’t get to the puter every day right now as life is SUPER busy with homeschool activities, but I...

DH didn’t miss the birth

Well DH went to CA and is back and still no baby. I’m so glad he didn’t miss the birth, but as I’ve never had a baby on a due date before we figured he was pretty safe.

I go on and off with contractions. I’ve had some doozies today that started out 10...

40 week prenatal

Well, I went in for my 40 wks prenatal today. Everything was ok except my bloodpressure is still high(138/85 normal for me is 120/70 or so) but she says since I’m so close it’s no use worrying about it. Still I am going to try to take it easy until I go into...

Still no baby

Just wanted everyone to know that Finneas is still snug and warm inside mama. He’s quite happy there it seems. I have gone past dates with all of my babies and it appears that Finneas is no exception. I’m not due until Saturday so it could still be a while.

I have contractions...

Yucky yucky day-39 wks tomorrow

Today is the day I’m supposed to be in labor. I’ve been telling this baby for months now that I really wanted to go into labor on the 9th and have him on the 10th. I’ve been telling him why it would be better for both of us, but apparently he just isn’t...
