36w5d- Throughout my pregnancy, I’ve created little milestones to keep me going. If you look at the full 40 weeks as one big lump sum, it’s too daunting.  Read Full Post

33w2d- Word to the wise: Opt for the childbirth class that’s stretched out over a few weeks. Don’t think you’re being smart and efficient by signing up for the 9 a.m to 4 p.m., one-day class. It’s just too much for one day. Too much. Read Full Post
