Thinking back to this time last year…
Next baby, I’m totally not starting my belly pics until I ACTUALLY have a belly :) Ah, novice mistake!
I couldn’t forget my pic, even though I was enjoying the beach in Hilton Head!
Look how little Penny is!
We took this right before going to dinner with Jonathan’s parents. I’d been “uncomfortable” for about 2 days but hadn’t had an single contraction (not even Braxton Hicks). Reasons why I convinced Jonathan to go to the jazz show at Monica’s that night. Of course, my first contraction came at 11:59pm and the following ones were less than 5 minutes apart. I never got the “gradual” labor like they describe in class! It’s just like everyone says, “All babies are different”…don’t we know it?!
What great pics! You are so lucky that you have all those belly pics. I took very few with my babies (I only have one of Ethan :( ), and I really wish I would've now! Glad Bridget had a super fun birthday! We need to play again soon!
ReplyDeleteI love this post!!!!!!! Interesting you mention the shivers with the epidural because I totally had this and didn't know what was causing it! B is so precious and it is really fun to read your reflection a year later. We can both join the two hour pushing club. Ugh, I wish I fell asleep in between pushing!
