“When is my baby sister coming out?” You wouldn’t believe how many times I’ve heard that question over the last six months. I’m certain I’ve heard some variation hundreds of times. It’s the first thing my daughter asks in the morning and her last question before bed. And she throws it out a handful…
As the announcer’s voice boomed off Nominees for Mom Blog of the Year I had about a dozen things running through my mind. Oh shoot! I forgot to send them a photo. What picture will they use? Will they just have a blank screen? Or a horrible picture from middle school dug up by some…
The giveaway below is sponsored by ClearBlue in partnership with BabyCenter. It’s funny how things change from your first child to the second, or last. After about five years of marriage, we decided we were ready to try to have a baby (that story in case you missed it). I hoped it would happen right away….
I was fiddling through my FaceBook page the other day when I realized how long I’ve been at this thing. It’s really incredible when I think about it. I started this blog nearly six years ago. Blogging has changed SO much since I started. I had no idea there was a plethora of mom blogs…
[tps_header]I don’t even want to dwell on the fact that I may never be pregnant again. I loved being pregnant. Both times. Nausea, cankles and all. It’s such a short and special time in my life and I wanted to document it as best as I could. When I was pregnant with my son I…
I glanced down at my phone and noticed I had a new message. When I opened my inbox I saw a peculiar subject line. “NBC Today Show.” Hmm. That’s funny. Well it got even funnier when I opened it up and read that they were doing a story about sharing information when pregnant for the…
I’m finally getting around to answering these “Ask me anything” questions, and some of these were a little deeper than I was expecting but I’ll do my best to answer them, and perhaps this will become the start of a new FAQ page. 1. What are your plans for #2?I’m not sure when #2 will…
I often think about what I’ll do differently with my next pregnancy/birth/child. Pregnancy was SO FUN. I really enjoyed it. Every bit, right down to my cankles. In fact, I was a little obsessed with my cankles. Still am. I don’t have any regrets, but there are some things I didn’t do with Lil’ J…
Thank you for laughing with me. Crying with me. Reading my rants. For giving me advice. And following along on my journey toward–and now through–motherhood. Somewhere between denying my rising baby fever and cankles, people started reading. A lot of people did. I can’t believe it. And I still am sorta asking myself why. But…
Read the Preface Read Part 1 Nurse Jennifer came in and checked on me several times throughout the night. She checked my blood pressure and temperature. I assumed it was always normal because she never really said much. Or I just don’t remember cause I was drugged up. At 7 she came in and was…
