Like Lion’s birth story, Panda’s birth story begins at 32 weeks. I started experiencing fairly regular contractions (five minutes apart) around this point and, because I now knew what to look for, I was able to keep track of their frequency. With Lion, I actually didn’t realize until I was in labor that I had been having […]

Little Bug was born in June, 2015 at 5:05 am. This is his flashback birth story. The day I gave birth I was having a lot of contractions, but they weren’t particularly painful — just kind of uncomfortable. I was also losing large chunks of my plug throughout the day.

Grace Natalie was born on February 21st at 4:31pm. She weighed 7lbs, 2oz and measured 20in long. We are all so in love! On Friday the 20th, Liam and I ran a few errands and had a picnic in the park. He had fun running around playing and I tried to keep up. On our […]

With the Trikester, labor lasted forever, especially the early labor part. I started feeling wicked back contractions on Tuesday morning, and didn’t deliver until Thursday […]

My due date for Baby Deer was October 15th. With Little Deer I waited until I was 40 weeks and 6 days along before taking castor oil to help get things going. That worked quite well and she was born the following day at 41 weeks. I was hoping that Baby Deer might come a […]

This has been a question I’ve been asking myself since for quite some time now. And here I am—38 weeks pregnant and still without an answer. It seems like most people I know who have had a natural birth definitely want another, but I’m not so sure that I feel the same way. I blogged […]
