I Need Your Opinion

So, after one has a baby and is starting to heal one needs to think again about contraceptive methods. Birth control pills suck. My adversion to them has gotten me pregnant twice already. They make me fat and cranky but I’ve come to realize that being pregnant makes me fat and cranky also. I got… Continue reading I Need Your Opinion

Healed Bum

Not much to say today.  Ike’s bum is almost healed.  Funny how it did better without the uber expensive prescription crap.  I shouldn’t have wasted 30 bucks, grrrrrr. MIL and I went for a walk today and got caught in the rain, it was slightly exciting.  I woke up with anxiety but that’s all passed… Continue reading Healed Bum

Pretty Ankles

I see my ankles now, it’s beautiful. All my water weight is off I think and I can see how beautifully slender my darling ankles are. That’s one of my favorite parts of having a baby. I’m also enjoying the ability to pee like a normal person. The pee just comes right out!! I don’t… Continue reading Pretty Ankles

Blah Blah Blah

Well Ike did NOT sleep well last night.  I’m not pleased.  He just didn’t want to be put down so I made up my mind that there will be no more holding him while he sleeps during the day.  He can’t get used to that!  It’s hard because it’s nice to cuddle the little rascal… Continue reading Blah Blah Blah

Stupid Hormonal Feelings.

I’m not sure if I just really mainly dis-like the newborn stage or if it’s just hormones.  I was thinking it took me a long time to love my child but I kind of don’t feel warm towards anyone I’ve noticed.  I think I’m just dealing with hormones.  I hate this though, I hate feeling… Continue reading Stupid Hormonal Feelings.

Alone Today

I’m having trouble with the thought of moving twice in the next two months.  This is going to really suck.  We’re going to stay in an apartment of a friends, he’ll stay with his girlfriend for the month of July so we can live at his house.  I’m selfishly dreading there being no washing machine… Continue reading Alone Today

Piggy Baby

*sigh* Another day another blog.  I wonder if I’ll ever get tired of this?  Isaac had his one week check up today and he’s already 8 pounds 9 ounces!!  He was 8 pounds at birth then only lost 2 ounces so in the last week he’s gained 11 ounces, that’s nuts.  Silas got big really… Continue reading Piggy Baby

Better

Feeling better today.  Isaac slept ok last night which I was thankful for.  He went down twice without me having to hold him to go to sleep.  That’s so important to me this time because I don’t want to have to rock my baby back to sleep at night.  I may as well get him… Continue reading Better

I Gave Birth Again

Last night the most horrifying thing happened. Ok perhaps not the most horrifying but it was weird and it made me a little faint. I was going to the washroom when I notice some tissue coming out of my you know what. I called the hospital and spoke to a maternity nurse and she told… Continue reading I Gave Birth Again

Ramblings About Babies

There’s a cleaning frenzy going on in my house.  Jill and Mom have gone bleach happy in my house and boy am I thankful.  Isaac is farting around in the bassinette and Silas is reading books and yelling “I LOVE YOU”.  Interesting. Last night went by fast enough but mister poopy pants did not want… Continue reading Ramblings About Babies

A Few Words and Some PHOTOS!

Feeling slightly less blurry eyed after a nap.  Although I woke to both of my children screaming, yikes., thank God for Grandmas.  Although it was Grandma that was making Isaac scream…bum change. I feel like I’m two timing my children, that I’m not allowed to love them the same or at the same time.  It’s… Continue reading A Few Words and Some PHOTOS!

He’s OUT!

I wrote this in the hospital last night but couldn’t get it up until now.  We’re all home and doing well.  I’m too tired to say much else, I’m so glad I was in a writing mood last night. I’m in the hospital right now writing this into my sister’s computer to upload. Funny how… Continue reading He’s OUT!

In Labour

6:27 pm Contractions getting harder to bear, it’s been three hours of them being fairly far apart but they’re starting to feel like they’re closing in on me.  Each one makes me want to hold onto a wall, bend my knees with my legs spread apart and sway back and forth.  Right now they seem… Continue reading In Labour
