The Cleanest Dirty Diaper East of the Mississippi

I just found out that I washed the babies' clothes with a dirty diaper. Explosion. Diaper crystals all over the clothes. Arghh.

Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice

We are having 2 girls! Maybe, sort of, kind of. We had another ultrasound last week and the tech said that the babies look “girl-ish.” They weren’t very cooperative during the ultrasound, though, so there is still a chance that they could be hiding little man parts. We should get a better reading during their anatomy ultrasound in a couple weeks. Yippee! Michael is in so much trouble! Outnumbered 4-1. hee hee.

My cervix is also behaving… which is always good to know!

C-Day

Cerclage day (otherwise known as the day Edie thought she was going to die from fright) was a success. Michael drove me to the hospital first thing in the morning so that we could be there in plenty of time for the torturous preparations that needed to be done before the surgery. I am not the most pleasant person when I am nervous/scared but Michael was amazing in his efforts to keep me sane along the way

My “Advanced Maternal Age”

Nothing makes me feel older than having the doctors constantly point out that I am of “Advanced Maternal Age.” Even when they don’t say it out loud, you can always find paperwork inconspicuously labelled “AMA.” I’m 35 for goodness sake! It’s not like I am 100 or something. OK.. I know that they do it for a reason. I have more of a chance for complications or chromosomal abnormalities because my eggs are old and stale from sitting around for 35 years…. but still! Can’t they think of a better name like “Slightly-Higher Maternal Age” or “She’s Really Not That Old”?

Our little squishy

Our little 1/4 inch squishy is kicking my butt! How is it possible that something so beautiful can make you feel so awful? I have been laying on the couch literally all day while my wonderfully, amazing hubby has been taking care of everything. I am so lucky.
