I have spent a small fortune on this child so far. I'm not really into designer labels or fashions, though I occasionally splurge on a very nice handbag or jewelry. I think it's something I've inherited from my grandmother and mother. They've always had nice jewelry and things, neither believing in putting it on credit. They both figured if they really wanted something, they would save up to afford

The thing about being pregnant after a loss is dealing with anxiety. You're always wondering 'what if...?' and you're never quite comfortable being pregnant, no matter how far along you are. Unless you've had a late loss, unless you've had multiple miscarriages, unless you know the pain of pregnancy loss, you can't relate. You can't sympathize, you can't empathize, you simply can't. Being an angel mom is something no
http://youtu.be/6jujG5X9iZsI had an appointment with my OB this past Friday. Yoda is looking great and measuring great. Still, no weight gain and my doctor doubts I'll gain any for the remainder of the pregnancy. I can still look down and see my feet for the time being. I had my glucose test on Friday as well and yeah...it was nice to drink the flat Fanta-like beverage for a few
According to LMP, I'm 30 weeks. Of course, that's not the case. Nevertheless, let's check in on Mr. Yoda.
According to babygaga.com:
Woohoo! You can finally see the finish line now that you're in the final quarter of the race!!!
Whether you felt like your pregnancy's been flying by or slower than a snail scaling Everest, you've arrived in your thirtieth week and your baby's cookin' beautifully!

I read a recent article on slate.com, regarding how one woman plans to never post anything about her child online ever. EVER. If you've followed his blog recently, you know about my struggle to even post Yoda's picture for fear of public reaction, due to Ethan.
But never posting anything about Yoda...ever? Hmm...that seems to be a bit harsh. It also seems ridiculously unrealistic.
I should probably explain my stance before
It's Hump Day Bump Day! Let's gooooooooooooooo!
This week's HDBD post comes in the form of two photos:
You know, one of these days I will clean my bathroom mirror. This was taken Sunday.
This was taken Monday.
I'm showing the different pictures to show how different my shape is depending on what I wear.
How far along? 29 weeks according to LMP. Yoda, however, is measuring 32 weeks, which puts me in the eighth
Yoda is growing leaps and bounds. He's growing so much that my MFM is officially a little concerned at the possibility I might need to be induced before my due date. There'll be another blog post on that tomorrow. Let's check in to see how Yoda is doing now.
According to babygaga.com:
If you’ve been feeling weird little fluttering butterflies in your belly, it’s not just your run-of-the-mill pre-birth performance anxiety.
Actually,

One thing I've come to realize is that when you're pregnant after a (late) loss, people tend to forget that you went through childbirth with the previous pregnancy, if you were fortunate to experience such agony. Already, the comments of what I should expect are coming in from friends.
Fact: I went through 13 hours of natural labor with Ethan, before I received an epidural. I know what childbirth feels like.
Today is HDBD. I'm tired, y'all. It's been really hot in LA and no matter how much I run all of the fans and AC and lounge around in my skivvies, I still can't get cool enough. Maybe if I can somehow fit myself in the freezer, that might work.
You have to excuse the dirty mirror. I really haven't been in the mood to clean anything lately. I did
I officially hit 28 weeks! This is a huge, huge milestone. Every four weeks is one step closer to a happy, healthy Yoda bear. My doctors are very happy with the progress of the pregnancy and namely, how the cerclage has been holding up. The next big milestone is 32 weeks. Whew! Let's hope it's a quick four weeks!
