Post Pregnancy Weight

Post pregnancy weight - UGH!!!

Before my pregnancy, I was already dealing with weight issues. Because I was also dealing with some medical issues, I found it incredibly easy to place a bunch of excuses around the fact that I was not losing the extra weight. I was gaining.

3 Weeks Ago...

It blows my mind that just three weeks ago, my little one came into my life. Earlier than expected, my life has shifted greatly and I could never be more happy.
Happy 3 Week Birthday to my little peanut!
We were a scheduled c-section, so planning was everything. Is everything! I am a planner and a bit of a control freak, so I knew what I was doing and when. However... I am now learning that I do not have the final say in my schedule. I hardly have a say at all. When baby wants to arrive, she arrives and when baby wants to eat, she eats... See how this works? I have little say! But really, I am far from complaining.

My Pregnancy Must Haves

On the eve of my 37th week of pregnancy, I am thinking about how far I've come. Anyone who's ever been pregnant can tell you that the experience is nothing short of a roller coaster with many ups and downs - both emotionally and physically.
That said, I have put together a list of things that I have found to be incredibly helpful to me during the various stages of pregnancy. These are my top "11" Pregnancy Must Haves... and in no particular order!

35 Weeks and 6 Days

It's incredible to think that in less than 4 weeks, I am going to be someone's mommy. I am certain of the date, only because we are a scheduled c-section due a previous surgery along my abdomen. Even still, I am not even sure that it has even hit me yet. I am think this is because I feel generally calm and haven't freaked out yet. I am excited for the baby, sure... but calm enough to not start worrying about all the little things. Are you buying any of this?

Hello There...

Hello, hello!

I suppose that I should make the obligatory "hello, here I am..." post. Though, I have to say, I am hardly new to this blogging deal. I've been around for many years as either a contributor or blog owner for longer than I care to mention!
So, what's with the new space?
