What I'm Loving



Happy Wednesday! Here's what I'm loving on this overcast day :)

{1} I'm LOVING another great doctors appointment! Baby was measuring right on schedule, all my symptoms are normal, and we had a good heartbeat in the 140s ... still the middle ground! I got a chance to talk to the doctor a little more about my wishes to have a non-induced, medicine-free birth, and she was totally on board! Although some of the nurses have said they typically don't let women go over 40 weeks in the office, Dr. assured me that she realizes most babies come within three to five days of their due date and so long as everything is looking OK for Baby and I, she totally respects that time limit. Typically, the mothers are begging for the induction, she said.

Glucose test wasn't near as bad as I thought, so now I'm just waiting for those results. And I'm on to appointments every two weeks now.

{2} I'm LOVING that we might finally get some rain today. After the flooding in April-May, it's been so dry and I miss the precipitation.

{3} I'm LOVING that this is a three-day weekend. Yay :)

{4} I'm LOVING that hubby and I have agreed on a fabric to use for accent pieces in the nursery :) I like stuff a little different but subtle and was really wanting gray chevrons or some sort of large pattern, while he wanted something more basic. After going to two fabric stores last night, I think we've compromised. I wanna buy the fabric before we paint so we can color match the shades.

I never knew the nursery would involve so much bickering, discussion. Geez!

{5} I'm LOVING that I'm surrounded by people who want to make sure Tuffy and I stay safe :)

{6} I'm LOVING Sonic's sausage breakfast burritos. I can't get the ones I make at home to taste half as good.

{7} I'm LOVING all y'all. Between your comments, emails and such, you know how to put a big smile on my face!

What are you loving today? Link up with Jamie to share!

  2. Are there any Bradley childbirth classes near you? It sounds like they would be a good fit. Even if you catch only part of the 12-week series, it would be helpful. And a 40-week due date is based on an average, which means for every baby born at 38 or 39 weeks one has to be born at 41 or 42 weeks, so stick to your guns on no induction, if that's what you think feels right. Also, if you want a copy of my short and sweet 1-pg natural childbirth birth plan, I'm happy to email it to you!

  3. I love Sonic breakfast burritos. Too bad we don't have a Sonic in our town now.

    Happy Wednesday!

  4. I love Sonic too! Except ours isn't very close so it's rare that I get to go.

    Yay for a good appointment.

    It's amazing how some husbands are so involved in everything - like mine too - and some that aren't. It's like "What do you care about the pattern for?!" haha. So glad you guys could pick one you both liked.

    I hope you get some rain! I keep forgetting we have a 3 day weekend! Score! :)
