My doctor just called because he’s a nice guy; I was able to ask some of my questions, and he also suggested squeezing me in tomorrow instead of waiting another week. We have tentatively scheduled the C-section, but I plan to do just a bit more research on the process of version (trying to turn […]
Okay. My doctor has a meeting, so my appointment for this morning has been canceled. Being self-centered and totally impatient, I cannot imagine what meeting would be more important than checking on Zoe and scheduling her birthday. What’s worse is that it’s not like I just have to wait until tomorrow or something. ONE WEEK […]
Match Day is February 15, but offers for admission can be extended through orientation (essentially July), as described here. So limbo could last longer. I find this unacceptable.
Though my lower back pain has reached an all-time high, I can remove one thing from my list of anxieties: Sarge around children. Yesterday we had our friends’ 10-month-old little girl at our house crawling on the [freshly steam-cleaned :)] floors, and Sarge got flat on the floor and crawled with her. It was adorable. […]
What a cruel, cruel joke that pregnancy amounts to ten months. I’ve had a good one really, but in this home stretch I am experiencing discomfort the likes of which I have never known, mostly at night. The belly, the anxiety, the heartburn, the inability to regulate my temperature and the hourly trips to the […]
Yesterday at the doctor appointment I got a little surprise ultrasound. It was a quick one to confirm a breech presentation, but my doctor printed out this picture of her face. It’s a little blurry because I can’t make the scanner work, so I took a picture of the printout. She’s just precious, and I […]
Zoe is due in less than a month! Now is the time when my neurotic brain begins cataloging absolutely every little thing that I feel must be done before and after her arrival. Some of these list items will be crossed off easily (buy wipes, pack hospital bag, arrange for pet care), while others may […]
I spent the day editing and creating things for this site, so take a look at the sidebar for new pet pages, if you’re interested.
No doctor appointment for me or work for the hubby today due to icy roads. Hooray! While I was looking forward to hearing Zoe’s heart beat and finding out if she has gotten into a more deliverable position, I’m pretty happy to delay that nasty test and to have Joel home for another day. We […]
We got our stroller and car seat! I can hardly wait to use them. The stroller is like 11 pounds, and it folds up to be carried on the shoulder. Also, here’s a belly pic of 35 weeks (sorry for the man arms). There has been some gross underreporting on this site, and as I […]
