I miss being pregnant

Yup. Call me crazy, but I do! More than likely it is because I was pregnant for practically two years! My last two years have revolved around creating life...lucky for my husband!

It could also be because this time around my pregnancy was as normal as a high risk chick that lost a baby and almost her life could be! I had my 6 week check up today and am still not healed (I did not have a c section...) so one would think that I would like to wait forever to be pregnant again. Pregnancy and birth is such an amazing thing, I still look at Carter sometimes and think he came out of where?! I am only 5 foot and was a size 4. (Was key factor still have 12 lbs to lose here!) I wanted to be weaned off Zoloft but my OB did not think that was such a good idea right now...sigh. All I know is I am not a fan of medication and do not want to be on it.

I am thinking next May will be when we will be able to try again. I have also decided we will not find out the sex, because I have girl stuff and boy stuff. Plus getting the room ready is not all that important since I know the baby will sooo not sleep in it. I want them in my room, and trust me if I could drag the huge ass crib in my room now I would!

Speaking of sleep, my deprivation is getting easier, Carter is sleeping about 4 hours before he wakes up for his first feeding, and honestly my body is adjusting like everyone said it would. (Dont you hate when everyone is right?)

I also broke down and ordered the Snuza Check it out here! In short this is its description :
What’s more important to you:
Knowing when your baby is crying?

Knowing when your baby is not moving?

 

Yes, it is good to know when your baby is crying and moving & needs your attention, but isn’t it even more important to know when they are completely still?

 

If you want to monitor your baby anywhere, anytime...snuza!

 

So that is what I did. Call me crazy all you want, but I want my child to stay alive, and I can;t help but think of the worst, not to mention if anything DID happen I would never forgive myself knowing that there were options. I want to do everything possible! Plus I will never put this child in his own room without some other reassurance. SIDS scares the shit out of me because a baby that is born premature is more prone to it.

 

I will leave you all with some Carter love!

Her son Carter will surely look up to! Aunt Marge will also be watching Carter one day a week! So he will be a very busy little boy!

Hoppy Easter!

Another Sign

We are all in Carters room. My Father was giving him a bottle, and my Mother was helping me put away Carters laundry. I was busy picking out his clothes to wear for tomorrow...I picked out his little brother onsie. (I was not in view of my father or mother when they said this) "Tomorrow we are going to go buy flowers and take Carter to Cara" AS I AM HOLDING THE LITTLE BROTHER ONSIE!!!

So this past week there has been many Cara signs...I wonder why? I have only have a few in over a year and now to get like 4 in a few days is so strange!
