When I got to work this morning there was a baby announcement in my inbox from another co-worker. A husband and wife, proudly standing with their twin boys, and a sign that told the world they were expecting. Why the hell is my initial reaction every emotion in the book? I am seriously happy for [...]

12 Weeks- A Healthy Baby
It was the high risk office, not the same as before. It was a different tech, a student nurse in the corner, more questions than last time and the goal of everyone in the room was to make sure this time around, there was a heartbeat. My anxiety was through the roof, I had to [...]
10 weeks pregnant- Baby comparisons
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 [...]

The Calm After the Storm
It seems every January brings this calm into our household. We hole ourselves up to hibernate, having grown tired of being social over the Holiday's. We find ourselves with little to no plans on the weekends and just the chance to be by alone. Which honestly, this is the first time we have fully had [...]
