You had a bad day

Yep i'm having one of those. I think I should just toss my phone in the ocean and then no one could call me to give me any more bad news. But then I would have a broken phone... ok rethinking that one. I could use a glass of wine! forget wine I could use a shot! oh wait I'm pregnant.... I guess sparkling cider will have to due. I just can't win today.

Birth Class

This weekend Adam and I attended a birth class. I was excitied to take this class and tour the hospital, but left feeling like I had lost all confidence in myself. I didn't realize the class would be geared toward natural child birth. I had decided to get an epidural early on in my pregnancy because I wanted to be able to enjoy the birth and not be slupt over screaming in pain. They showed us a few videos of natural child birth and one with an epidural birth. They kept saying the advantage of a natural birth is you are free to move/walk around. I was slightly confused by calling this an advantage because the women in the natural birth video where not strolling around they where sitting or on there side screaming bloody murder and looked like they were moments from death! Then they kept referring to the epidural as "risky". Later to find out its risk is less than 1%. Now I'm worried if I walk into the hospital and say "I would like an epidural" I'm going to get a nurse who will instantly judge me.

28 weeks

Hello Third Trimester. This is going faster than I thought. We have our birth class this weekend, which I am looking forward to. I have a feeling once we get through the holidays February is going to sneak up on us really fast! I'm getting very excitied to meet our little girl. Will she have dark hair or light hair? What will her eye color be? Will she look like me or her dad? How will the birth go? I have been very calm about the idea of giving birth, (which is shocking the heck out of me) I figured I would be terrified! We will see if I start to freak out as it gets closer.

Finding the perfect tree

Yesterday I got off work a little early so we could go get our Christmas tree. I think we found one in record time this year. It only took us about 15 minutes of hunting to find the perfect tree! Christmas is now in full swing at our house. Decoration, lights, and tree are now up. Let the holidays begin!
