They claim that hard physical activities can make your water break, but that’s obviously not the case for us ;P It snowed this morning and our street was plowed while I was at my dads eating dinner, so I had to shovel a big pile of snow to get my car into our driveway (Tony’s [...]

I can’t make anything happen!
Adrian still don’t feel like joining the outside world, a fact that seems to frustrate the crap out of everyone around us. There’s been a significant increase in the amount of phone-calls and text-messages I’m receiving these days, all with the question “Is something happening yet?!” and the disappointed sigh after I confirm that no, [...]
What to clean?
It’s Adrian’s due date +1 and no sign of anything happening, so I’m wondering what I can clean today. So far I’ve cleaned the walls and ceilings in the hallway, the downstairs bathroom and the kitchen. I’ve also cleaned inside all the cabinets in the kitchen, the refrigerator and the closet in the bedroom. I [...]
What I DON’T want to happen
I’ve now been on maternity-leave for 3 weeks, and Adrian’s still safely tucked away inside my belly. Since I don’t really have anything I have to do (and not always so much energy to do anything either) and I keep having more or less sleepless nights, it gives me a lot of time to think. [...]
The waiting-game
Today I’m 40 weeks and 2 days pregnant and it’s Adrian’s official due-date. Neither Tony nor I have thought much about this date, but it kinda hit us late last night that the day is actually here and that the labor can start at any moment. I’ve tossed and turned all night thinking about it [...]
Nothing will stand in her way
Dansi’s obsessed with Tony’s lap. It doesn’t matter what he’s doing – if he’s on the couch, she wants to be on his lap. If there’s no room for her, she usually sits and stares until he makes room, or like today: she just pushes a way through the obstacle and gets comfortable!
I wish I [...]
Check-up #12
This morning we had an appointment with my doctor for my twelfth and final check-up before Adrian’s due. Our baby’s heart-rate is perfect, and I’m in great shape! My uterus-measurements keeps increasing (39 cm), but I still have 1 cm left before I’m out of the chart they register it on ;P It should drop [...]
Mentally unstable kitty-cat
Dansi’s been weird for the last three or four days. She’s either been overly cuddly or completely insane, running around the house like her tiny behind was on fire. Today she’s kinda just been following us around as we’ve moved through the house.. cracks me up ;P
A little while ago, she decided to crawl into [...]
Still no baby ;)
If you thought my absence was caused by Adrian’s arrival, you thought wrong ;P He doesn’t seem to show any signs of showing up in the near future. Just as well, since we’re still impatiently waiting for the changing-table to arrive. That, plus diapers, is more or less the only thing we still haven’t gotten [...]
The wonderful nights at the end of a pregnancy
I’ve had an absolutely horrible night. I got out of bed six times to pee (!!), and for the rest of the time I mostly twisted and turned ’cause my back was absolutely killing me. I’m exhausted and cranky as hell. I’d prefer to have Tony at home, but I guess it’s a good thing that [...]
