I've started thinking about the nursery:
We will start on it tomorrow, 3/18/06. We are going to paint the walls light green & use a ragging texture on them. We plan to incorporate the colors light green, blue, soft yellow, white, and neutral along with ginghams patterns. We will also use lambs, moons & stars - we were given gently used nursery bedding and will tie in some of our own things to make it BABY'S!

I've been dreaming about you:
Nothing that I can recall at this moment - I know I've had dreams about being pregnant. I daydream about you all day long though! You are always on my mind....
|
|
| |
I used to love food! Now I avoid:
Green peppers & chocolate milk - I got sooooo sick during the first trimester on both of these, and I don't know if I'll ever return to them! I'm also not eating lunch meats, fish, and trying my best to stay away from soft cheeses (feta & blue - my favorites!!)
|
|
| |
I never thought pregnancy would make me:
be so moody! But I've also found myself not "sweating the small stuff" at the same time.
|
|
| |
I can't wait to:
Hold you in my arms, hear you take your first breath, have the special bond of breastfeeding, show you off to family & friends!

My prenatal visit this month taught me:
I continue to gain weight --- eeeeekkkk!! 34 lbs thus far, and with 12 weeks to go (though I learned the scale & measurements have been incorrect; I am unsure what the exact weight gain has been & that's fine with me!). I don't have Gestational Diabetes though, YEAH!
|
|
| |
My hopes:
That I will continue to have an open mind about delivery decisions - everything from pain relief measures to the possibility of needing a C-Section...
|
|
| |
My fears:
I am not 100% confident in my abilities to care for a newborn (MY newborn) 24/7 after returning home from the hospital. I know that I'm not alone, and that we will have LOTS of help from family & friends.
