by now, some of you may have guessed that i'm pregnant! i am so excited and nervous this time around. i had no idea when i was pregnant with parker what i stood to lose. this baby is so very wanted and loved already. i feel sick which is reassuring to me i suppose. i've actually lost a few pounds from the nausea and dizzyness, SO different from last time. i'm completely exhausted and trying to nap with parker everyday.
i am a little over six weeks pregnant (due mid july 2006) and we've already found a wonderful midwife (who we'll be seeing for our first real appointment on dec. 2). we're planning a homebirth this time around and i am thrilled at the prospect of a very different type of birth that the one i had with miss p. i'll be using this blog to talk about all the things i've learned (and will learn) about the medicalization of pregnancy, labor and birth. i'll also of course be putting up fun stuff too like pictures of my belly so ya'll can see how big i get.
parker is very excited about baby "girl" (we'll see if she's as gifted as we think she is) in mama's tummy. we've already started reading her books about it and she seems to understand about as much as can be expected of an almost two year-old. she's a little unsure as to whether there is a baby in her belly though...
