From baby #1 to baby #2, it is hard to not make comparisons. I think this is something every mother does with full term pregnancies, it is the same with pregnancies that don't go to full term. Having gone a total of 12 weeks being pregnant last time, I'm doing a lot of comparisons with [...]

9 Week Ultrasound
Last Friday I had my nine week ultrasound. I was a fucking wreck that morning and then on the way to the hospital. For some reason, once I met up with my Husband in the parking lot, I calmed down. By the time we found our seats in the waiting room, we both had our [...]

I love everything about it and always try to really slow down and enjoy every bit of it. Until this year. [...]
8 Weeks Later
It has been 8 weeks from that horrible Thursday that altered our world. These are the things I can tell you about. I can tell you that lately the days have gotten easier. The nightmares are slowing and I'm starting to get more good nights of sleep than bad. The Summer feels like it happened [...]
