fides quarens intellectum Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 thanks, but i just don't know what we'll need. my mom sent a pack of 12 for 0-3, but then the sleepers have feet built in. how are we supposed to figure out ahead of time just what a baby's going to need and not need? 19. we're now in the teens - yikes!

fides quarens intellectum Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 Oh, and apparently, this week is Babyloss Awareness Week, a UK campaign - the week ends October 15th at 7pm when the organizers are asking people to light a candle in memory of a lost baby. Prayers for the souls of all the lost babies, and for their grieving parents... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archaeology cat Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 How exciting! BTW, I also see the birth plan as mostly being an exercise in knowing your options and making your wishes known. It's not like you can predict what will happen and when. I'd planned to birth in water with Kieran, but ended up not wanting in the pool. I'd planned to labour under the shower with Charlotte, but ended up sitting on the birthing ball and chatting online until the midwife arrived.

The midwives arrived just before transition, which lasted all of 2 contractions before pushing. I think they arrived maybe an hour before Charlotte was born (whole labour was only 4 hours, though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fides quarens intellectum Posted October 19, 2011 Author Share Posted October 19, 2011 13. Today's appt: based on feeling around with her hands, baby's probably 6lbs and some change now (she prefers this method b/c growth scans can be off by as much as a few pounds). So, she doesn't think it will be an extremely big baby based on its size right now, but of course that all depends on how long it stays in there... Baby's doing well and growing quite well, so i'm thankful for that! Thank you guys for the prayers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissyP89 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Six pounds will feel plenty big on the way out. Praying for you! Can't wait for you to hold your healthy little one. God is good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
