Wed, 02 Jul 2008 13:35:18 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en So the Pink or Blue post "poll" results are in. Thanks for all the participation guys (including those who de-lurked!). Team Pink has 11 votes, and Team Blue has 7!!! Go Pink go!!! Okay, I really just joke about this all, as I will be SOOO happy no matter ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/07/01/butterfly-wings/ Our MW appointment went really well this morning! The monthly visits are reassuring for both K and myself, but more than that - they're actually fun! Our midwife, N, said my pee "looked good", BP was "great", and my weight gain was "perfect". It's funny to hear any ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/06/30/pink-or-blue/ I've wanted to post for several days, but haven't felt like I've had the energy...do you ever have that?  Today was another 102 degree day in Richmond and yet another 14 hour day.  I'm exhausted.  Even my toes hurt.  I've told you all this before, and I fear it's getting ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/06/26/building-a-mystery/ Today it is a bit cooler in Richmond. We're getting a little bit of a break from the super-high temps we've been getting lately; it's a big relief that is much-needed. 2 days ago our A/C compressor broke. Since everyone and their brother is having A/C trouble, we ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/06/17/14-weeks/ Holy 2nd trimester Batman! I can’t believe the 1st trimester is behind us! I've been not-so-patiently awaiting this day - 13 weeks! I feel like I can breathe a little sigh of relief now. I know things can still go wrong.... but I feel a bit better now ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/06/10/goodbye-1st-trimester/ It was a sweltering hot 102 degrees here in Richmond, VA today. The kind of heat that takes whatever energy you had in you and sucks it right out. I always describe the heat and humidity as feeling very much like a hot hairdryer blasting in your face, ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/06/09/scorcher/ This morning we had our first midwife appointment!!! This was an important day!!! I was so anxious and nervous to meet N, and just really didn’t know what to expect, meeting her in person. Our nurse practitioner absolutely raved about her and said that we would just love her. ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/06/05/meet-the-midwife/ I'm still alive! I'm pet-sitting and don't have an internet connection right now, so I apologize for the lack of commenting on your blogs! I will catch up with you all as soon as I'm back home. (Hoping I don't miss Sparky's big entrance over at WE ARE FAMBLY!). ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/05/29/itty-bitty-post-in-bullets/ Does it seem, to you, that time is flying by?? I don't know how we could be at 10w3d already. 2nd trimester is not far off now!!! I can't believe it - here we are. No long an embryo, our Wee One is now a fetus!!! Wooo!!! AND, ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/05/23/10w3d/ I feel like I haven't written a post in forever. Work has been so busy, and I've been rather sick. Nausea and throwing up or nausea without the throwing up, which can almost be worse. We've been working 12-14 hour days which are exhausting. I feel ... http://chroniclesofconception.wordpress.com/2008/05/16/feeling-very-pregnant/
