I used to be strong. Not physically, but emotionally. I always felt like I could handle anything that came my way. Stressful things never de...

This week has been filled with doctor visits. On Monday, I had a regular OB visit. These visits are pretty boring if you ask me. I go in, pe...

Well, that says it all, doesn't it? Actually, it is my sleeping patterns that are all screwed up, not me. It is now 2:19 am and I am wid...

Tomorrow will be week 23. Yay. Both my babies are looking good and my cervix seems to be holding steady due to the cerlage and bed rest. All...

Sorry I've been MIA lately! I have no excuses, really, unless laziness is considered one. That is pretty much all it was--laziness. That...

12 weeks today! I can hardly believe it. I am still in a strange sense of denial about this whole pregnancy, even after seeing my little bea...

I was released by my RE this week. I was totally unprepared for the emotions that my little "graduation" would evoke. The thought ...

I am still having trouble putting my feelings here. I don't know why. I often think of what I want to say and come here with every inten...

I had a rough day at school today. There are only 7 days left to the school year, and we are all feeling it. The end of the year can't c...

Thank you so much for the positive thoughts and prayers over the last few days. I certainly didn't mean to leave everyone hanging. The u...

I haven't posted for awile. I am still afraid that I might somehow jinx this pregnancy and something might happen. I am waiting to leave...
