My Birth Story

On January 28th, Truck Driver Burt and I drove to the big city to go to my doctor’s appointment with Dr. Jersey.  Today was the day.  I was going to be induced.  I had decided that I wanted a vaginal birth instead of a C-section.  Truth be told, I totally chickened out after watching What … Continue reading »

January 28th – Bring it!

January 28th – Bring it!

I’m 38… almost 39 weeks, and I’ve started preparing for the birth of my first child. Last Monday, I went to the doctor and learned that I was 1 centimeter dilated, and my cervix has softened.  My doctor went ahead and scheduled my induction for the night of the 28th. I’ve started preparing.  I’ve bought … Continue reading »

The Nursery – After

Drum roll, please…  These are the after pictures!  Big difference, huh?  I absolutely love how this room came together.   The Jenny Lind crib was mine as a baby, the metal pedal car was my mother’s as a child, my father refinished the dresser for a changing table, and Truck Driver Burt made the book … Continue reading »

The Nursery – Before

Truck Driver Burt and I have been working on this dang nursery since before Christmas.  I’m happy to announce it is FINALLY done and ready for baby!  Yay!  These are the before pictures.  It was a hell of a mess, and it took a lot of hard work! – The Infertile Housewife

9 Months

I’m feeling pretty good today, so I thought I would update all of my readers.  It has been so long since I’ve written anything, and that truly does bug me.  However, some things I just can’t help.  For whatever reason, sitting at the computer is really hard for me.  Booger gets into a weird position, … Continue reading »

On September 24th, Truck Driver Burt and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary in a shitty motel room in Hobbs, NM.  Our anniversary was on a Monday which meant that Truck Driver Burt would have already left … Continue reading »

Weekend Update

I hope ya’ll had a great weekend!  Ours was ok.  Friday, Truck Driver Burt and I decided to stay in and relax.  We watched Battleship on PPV.  Not too shabby.  While we were watching Battleship, Mushy Tushy decided to raid the pantry and get some doggy treats.  Luckily, the bag is made of “Superman” plastic, … Continue reading »

Changes

There are a few changes in my life since the last time that I blogged.  I’m now 18 weeks pregnant.  My nausea and dizziness has finally disappeared.  Thank goodness.  I was miserable and starting to feel hopeless. My house is still a wreck at least according to my standards.  Truck Driver Burt thinks it looks … Continue reading »

I’m Back… For Real This Time!

I just wanted to update ya’ll real quick.  I know I said a few posts ago that I thought my morning sickness was just about gone.  Oh, how wrong I was.  These past few months have been filled with terrible nausea, vomiting, dehydration, dizziness, and a hospital stay.   I wasn’t even able to shower by … Continue reading »

I See the Light

I’m baaack!!!  I am now 10 weeks pregnant with a very healthy baby, and I’m starting to feel better.   I can actually function right now.  It feels so weird to be blogging since I haven’t in so long.  Actually, it feels weird doing anything because I have literally been in bed for a month or … Continue reading »
