Sooo Today we have been Getting ready and Packing for the Hospital !!! I took some pictures :)  In this Picture to my Right we have Julia's Burp Clothes, 5 headbands , a really cute Hat , and her booties and socks !!! SOOO CUTE right

Over to my Left you will see are Pink Minky covered Boppy are Wubbanub, pinky the poodle, and her nighty night Blankie 

 

I also made a video of the other stuff for the hospital and I have to tell you smart Idea to check your electronics Before you go to the hospital BECAUSE are camcorder was stuck in Infro- red I couldn't figure out for the Longest what was wrong with it. I thought it must be low lighting but then I'm like My black Samsonite suitcase looks NAVY. I know that Bugger is BLACK soo WTF is going on and thats what it was. SOO. I think I have everything except BATTERIES for the camera which I will send Bryan for tonight.

Living in the moment

Well I'm 35 weeks and 3 days I'm just about as miserable as miserable can be. I have gone online and read about all the Wives tales for making a baby come out. Besides a few natural things there is not a lot I can do. red raspberry leaf tea and prim rose oil and bouncing on a birthing ball but nothing that will make her come a moment sooner. Which Kinda sucks On the upside we had a Hematology appointment and that went SUPER my Platelets are up and turns out baby girl and me are remarkably healthy. Which makes me think I'll be pregnant forever.

But we are going to live in the moment and in this moment Julia is getting the best care ever. She is not in a incubator she is not in the hospital she is completely healthy and protected By me her mother. I'm sure there are plenty of people who would be as miserable as I feel right now for that privilege. She is growing and thriving and will be here Very soon so I just need to focus on some easy projects for the next month. That don't require me leaving the house. I don't want to leave the house anymore outside of my house it is Hot, there are no Pillows, and my feet swell. I hate that I'm about to go like super hermit because I'm a Very VERY out going person but I may be taking a hiatus from my hectic lifestyle and just sit here and contemplate LIFE and work on a super mommy To-do List.

Donating the Afterbirth???

Okay I have always known you could Bank your child's cord Blood I have little interest in doing that as I cannot afford to do so , HOWEVER I have found out that instead of letting all that valuable Life giving Goo go to waste You can donate it!!! isn't that pleasant but its a Good conversation to have.

I wonder if anyone else is going to or has donated. I'm going to donate and I'll write about it. Cause I have never known anyone who has done it but hey maybe they would find something cool out about cord
blood. Maybe they will help another kid you never know
