Little Miss Mirth

Well, I am feeling mentally "better" today. Haven't even cried once! :-) I woke up today with a "screw it" attitude about the last doctors appointment. I know this baby is healthy and growing exactly the way she should. I can't let crazy doctors get in my head and make me scared for the health of my child AND preterm labor. So screw it. I am taking charge (well at least for the day) of my feelings and embracing this pregnancy. This is our last child (biological at least) and no sense in being completely scared and lying in bed all day feeling sorry for myself when NOTHING has gone wrong. She is growing strong!

Anyway...so we chose a name!!! Yay!! We had it down to 2 names...and it's officially....A SURPRISE!!! Little Miss does have a name...but we are keeping it a secret. Actually one of my LBM's does know her name...but that's it. :-) We shared a few names with people and it seems everyone has an opinion. So...it's a secret!

Happy 4th of July everyone! :-)

    Sounds like you had a tough week. Sorry. I don't like your doctors, either. I don't believe them. So, go ahead and SCREW THEM. Can't wait to see the Little Miss Mirth. I know she'll be perfect. Hugs. Aya

I can't believe it happened to me!

Sometimes I am in complete awe that we have a baby. I am so in love with River and I feel very fortunate! River is a really good baby; She eats great, sleeps well, smiles tons and is easily comforted when cranky. I am really happy to have her here. On the flip side, I am learning all of the beautiful things I missed out with Zoe. Bath time, reading books, cuddling, smiling, cooing, bites of new foods, so on and so forth...the list could go on forever. I still battle with postpartum depression, but I do feel like I am coming out on the other side. My sad days are fewer apart. I still feel terribly guilty that I battle depression. We have tried so long and so hard for a baby that it seems selfish of me to be sad when we have a perfect baby in our arms. HOWEVER, it's not the kind of thing I can control. I still have a lot of depression related to nursing. It hurts me that it didn't work for me...sigh. But, River is super healthy and growing well and at the end of the day, SHE is t...

Seraching for balance...

Wow...I have been a seriously slacker...again. I write on a private blog for River for family, but I find myself writing on here less and less. This blog helped me heal and grow through my grief...but I also know I am never truly healed. Zoe's loss will always be with me. These days I find myself struggling with balance in my life. I seem to be all over the place. After we lost Zoe I was searching to fill the void in my life. At the time, I thought getting a puppy would help distract my mind...it did. The following year we rescued a second dog. Now here we are with a 9 month old and 2 very high energy dogs. I have an extremely difficult time managing our husky, despite how much I love him. I feel like my priorities shifted in such a huge manner...I don't have the time I once did to attend to his needs. I feel like such a terrible dog owner, but at times I feel like it may be time to find Sawyer a new home. He is such a sweet, loving pup...but his energy level is OFF THE HOOK....
