My princess turned 1-month-old today!!! I can't believe that it's been 1 month since she came into my life. Look at her chubby little belly. She's gained about 3 more chins recently and has tons of fat rolls on her thighs now!
The post I have been waiting 2 years to write is finally here and I can't really believe it. On Saturday, I woke up at 8:30 a.m. with BAD contractions. By the 2nd one, I knew I was in "real" labor. They were SO different than the braxton-hicks. I got out of bed and decided that I'd take a bath, until water ran down both legs. The pain after that got pretty unbearable immediately and I was having contractions every 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. So, I called Aaron at work to tell him it was "the big day". He decided I was kidding until I nearly leapt through the phone to wring his neck. :) We got to the hospital an hour later and I was dilated to a 4 and having very active contractions. They quickly got me moved to an L&D room. I got my epidural ( AMAZING - we'll talk about this in its own post soon) at a 6 and then my doctor broke my water. (Apparently at home, it had just leaked a pocket of fluid). After he broke my water, labor started picking up ...
Happy 1 month, Paisley (and to you, mom and dad! you survived!!!!)! Looks like she has noooo sleeping troubles!

ReplyDeleteShe is SOOO cute!! Our babies are only a few days apart! I am so glad you found my blog and commented. I actually used to follow yours, but then you got pregnant at the exact same time that I miscarried in December, so it was a little much back then. I'm glad you commented and I found my way back:)! I'll be following - I am loving your past posts of being peed on (at least it wasn't poop, that's been my experience, too!) and the lack of sleep. Isn't motherhood awesome:)?!
