We had an interesting late afternoon today. My dad had brought over some delicious bagels, lox, and cream cheese for lunch! (Thanks again!!!) Then, I took a nap. Around 4:30pm, I felt a few drops. I checked to see if it could be amniotic fluid. (Dr. Molly had given us some ph papers that turn [...]

Still waiting. We went to see Dr. Molly today for the fastest ever appointment. She apologized and said that she was double booked by accident. No worries, we didn’t have much to talk about anyway. The boy is still not down quite low enough to get a good feel on how many centimeters dilated, but [...]
That’s how much spare change we had around the house. We went to a coinstar after preschool to count our riches. Sometimes the little things in life make you smile all afternoon.
Last night, we had a practice run, I suppose. We were counting the contractions at about 8 minutes apart for about an hour. We called our doula and we called our midwives, just to check in. They advised I take a big drink of water and have a little snack and try to go to [...]

No baby yet… however, we decided to go to Central Market for some dinner and quick shopping. Zoey was feeling like she didn’t want to eat anything all day long and she was starting to get grumpy. So, off we went. And not one minute after we put her in the cart and started past [...]
