dear anna the fetus, today is your due date. it’s time to become a baby. let’s do this thing. it would be pretty sweet to have a cinco de mayo birthday, you know. it would seem like everyone was celebrating your birthday with fiestas, every year. just sayin. i don’t know if you’re just pretty […]
anna
blood pressure roller coaster.
went back to the doctor today to check out that slightly elevated bp from friday. at first it was super high. so, i got to lay on my side for a bit and when they came back to check it had returned to normal… so, they patted me on the back and sent me on […]
made it to may…
well, it appears that i’ve made it through april and that this baby will be born in the month of may… still no signs of a baby on the way, however. i went to the doctor yesterday and my blood pressure seems to be creeping up a little lately, so i go back on monday, […]
10 days…
ten days until this baby is due. hoping sooner. hoping more for NOT later. 🙂 i’m pretty tired these last few days. probably some because of the giant stomach i’m carrying around and probably mostly from intermittent sleep. last night, for the first part of the night, i woke up every half an hour. for […]
anna delores
that’s what we’ll be calling baby lidbom 2.0. anna – because we both liked it and could agree on it. 🙂 delores – after my mom’s mom. the grams… so, that’s that.
one month away…
8 months of pregnancy in the books. 1 left. give or take a few days, i suppose. i feel like we have so much to do. which is funny, because we cut out a lot of the to-do’s that we had with isaac. since, apparently, the world doesn’t end if the nursery isn’t ready for […]
frilly shower fun
on saturday, some cool girls from salem chapel threw a shower for me and the soon-to-arrive baby lidbom 2.0 (who, incidentally, does have a name, to be revealed soon)… i don’t have any pictures to tell the tale, but it was an extremely pink and frilly affair. i even sported a boa and a tiara. […]
bring on the sugar.
i’m 30 weeks today. 10 to go. the big news of the last week of being pregnant is that i had the delightful experience of taking the 3 hour version of the glucose test last friday and it revealed that i do not have gestational diabetes and that the one hour test was just a […]
28 weeks.
i was 28 weeks of pregnant yesterday. 12 to go. i also received notification that my one hour glucose test came back high, so now i get to endure the delightful experience of the three hour test and hope that it was just a fluke… maybe due to excessive consumption of sweetarts the previous evening? […]
the pink room.
derek was off for the last week, so we took the opportunity to paint the baby’s room (formerly known as my office). despite an original reluctance to have any pink be a part of this girl’s life, i opted for a very dark, almost red shade of pink. isaac thinks that “the baby is going […]
