Hey Val! We don’t have a name picked out yet. We’re kind of back and forth between 2 now… both so different. But I think we’ll have to meet her to decide. I don’t think I’m going to share them here beforehand though… gotta keep some things a surprise! :)

If that baby is an aguarius, as stated above, just remember that is what I am! Hopefully you will go into labor on time or before because you have waited long enough that the last week or so (especially if you go past your due date) is WAY TOO SLOW! Either way, you will do just fine.

btw, do you have a name picked out?

you don’t know me, but I love your blog and come to it regularly. I just had a baby on November 16th. This was 3 days late. I thought I was going to go early. I wanted to go early. I had braxton’s for many weeks before. Babes come when they are ready. I cannot imagine my life without my boy, Zeke.
I wish you luck!

penny, to stop bleeding on the face, try a used tea bag. the tannic acid really helps. i busted my lip once and it absolutely would not stop bleeding- but the tea bag worked like magic.
practice the 3 types of breathing and you can control your labor..i actually learned the most from the lamaze video i got at the library when i had my 3rd child.
my first and second labors were about 15 hours or so, and that’s not counting the time at home. with the 3rd- got to the hospital at 11:14 and he was born at 11:24. BE PREPARED. all labors are different.
God bless you!

My first child (Miika) was due on February 7th and was born on the 3rd…so that will be my vote! All the agony might be looming heavy now, but soon after your baby is born, all of that will disappear from your memory. Blessings!

Oh man, Penny! What a morning. So glad you got out and laughed your way through it all. Sometimes, it’s the only thing we can do.

I’m so excited for you to meet your little miss. xo
