Today I'm feeling pretty rough. I'm sure it's a culmination of doing too much yesterday, not eating enough for dinner (because I feel sick to my stomach today), and not sleeping well (my shoulders and thighs are killing me from sleeping only on my sides). LOL, I'm a mess aren't I? Sorry, again, just...

Robotic heart surgery. What is it and on whom should it be applied? It’s amazing how many people know about it. For all that’s on the internet about it, it’s equally amazing how little folks actually understand about where it fits in the scheme of things.
I think the mos...

Today we painted the nursery (this was the second phase). My husband drew on many different sized letters and then yesterday I taped them all off and painted them. If you're going to paint while pregnant make sure you request low VOC paint. This does not contain toxic fumes that can be harmful fo...

I have stuck closely to my workouts every other day. During the week I usually walk my driveway by myself with the dogs for about 25 minutes. On the weekend my husband and I always choose one day to hike the fields which is a much more intense walk for about 45 minutes. We left the house at about 9:...

Tonight we went to dinner and a movie with friends. It's always nice to have a friend who's pregnant and going through similar experiences as you are. My friend is 13 weeks pregnant right now so of course all four of us had a lot to talk about. I remember what it was like when we were nowhere nea...

Don't laugh at my complete lack of knowledge about breastfeeding. I have some questions I want to ask my doctor on the next prenatal visit. First of all, I have only witnessed this with more acuteness since I've been pregnant. I didn't pay much attention to this phenomenon before being prego because...

Today we painted the nursery. My husband was nervous about having me help him paint while being pregnant but as long as you make sure it is VOC low fume paint you're fine. i couldn't even smell any fumes. I talked with my interior designer friend and someone from Sherwin Williams; ...

Pregnancy symptom 9,99999999. :) Yay! We are getting to the horribly uncomfortable stage while sleeping. For those of you who don't know, I am not allowed to sleep on my back, have intercourse on my back, or even watch TV on my back. I am also not allowed to lay on my stomach for obvious reasons. Th...

Well, it's official: I called the doctor and it is not an iron deficiency - thank goodness! I was worried because iron pills make most people nauseas and constipated - neither of which do I want considering I am still nauseas almost everyday. Lucky me, I know. My six month check up went great! ...

As i go throughout my pregnancy I told you I'd inform you of strange symptoms. While we were on vacation last week my husband noticed I had bruising all over my rear end. We were stumped - couldn't think of what possibly could have caused this. As we examined my body closer I had t...
