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 ...
Those are adorable!!!! I can't wait to have mine done, provided everything goes well.
ReplyDeleteLOVE these :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these! I am SO upset I did not get maternity photos done - but I honestly just could not coordinate one more thing. I was so tired from taking care of Jackson and being pregnant that dressing up for pictures seemed so out of the realm of possibility, lol! These are gorgeous - and Paisley looks like a doll in her picture:).
ReplyDeleteWith the ribbon, you can't even tell!
ReplyDeleteReally cute!!! She DOES look grown up! When did that happen???
ReplyDeleteHey Beautiful Preggo! I love these pics! Sorry I've been such a horrible blogger lately. I'm exhausted with this pregnancy! Everything is going well - we have our c-section scheduled for August 6. Zachary came 2 weeks early on Aug 21 so I guess it's possible that our little GIRL will be here before then!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of coming early, my guess is that your big baby (BOY????!!) will be arriving earlier than scheduled too. Doesn't it seem like time has flown by?
