Well, this is it. This evening, my husband and I will be checking into the hospital for the delivery of our baby girl. I spoke with my doctor about the early induction and it's because of my polyhydramnios (excessive amniotic fluid around the baby). They didn't want all that fluid in there with baby for … Continue reading Go Time

I received an email on Friday afternoon from the hospital labeled "Updated Induction Information". I hadn't heard anything from my OB so, I assumed it was just an email re-confirming my induction for July 8th and 9th. They apparently moved my induction date up to June 17th with a check-in on June 16th. Super cute … Continue reading Changes

Babymoon at Disney World
In April, my husband and I decided to take our last trip before baby arrived. This was also a trip to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. I decided that Disney World was the only place I wanted to go so that was where we went. I must have been out of my mind. Don't get … Continue reading Babymoon at Disney World
