Baby Crocheted Hat

I finally ordered that crocheted baby hat that I blogged about months ago!  It is from Portland Beanie Company. I can't wait until it arrives in the mail.  Hannah is going to look so cute in it during her newborn photos!  :o)


I also received my ring sling in the mail today... so once I get internet back I'll be sure to post some photos.

Bed Rest Update

Well, even though I lounged all weekend, my blood pressure still went up a little. The baby still sounds good but I go into the doctor again on Friday. She said that if my pressure still hasn't gone down, she will induce me at 38 weeks--which I'm guessing could be as early as the end of next week or early the following week because I am currently about 36 1/2 weeks.


I can still go to work since I work at a desk but other than that I am supposed to be lazy. I think tonight though I am going to go to Babies R Us to get the last minute things that I need... then that will make me feel a little better because I can cross that off my list and it will allow me to be lazy.


But now I play the waiting game again... ugh! 

Could Hannah's birthday be in October??? AH!

Bed Rest

I had a doctors appointment yesterday and found out that my blood pressure and protein were a little high. So as a precaution, my doctor wants me to be lazy all weekend and stay in bed then come back on Monday to see if that lowered my pressure or not. If it doesn't she said she would seriously consider delivering the baby early to avoid any complications. So, so much for the plans I had this weekend. I can go to work today and Monday because I just sit at a desk but I'm not going to be able to go to Babies R Us like I wanted to buy some things I still need and we're not going to be able to go pumpkin picking. :o( Sadness. Those things will just have to wait until next week or weekend. Baby definitely comes first! Other than that though Hannah looks good. Her heart rate was good and the doctor said everything is on track. We just want her to stay in for at least another week to have her lungs mature. So I guess we'll see on Monday what the deal is. I'll keep you all informed!

The Two That I Picked...

So I went ahead and ordered two different slings from Etsy.  I have no idea when Hannah will make here debut so I didn't want to wait since it will take a week or two to get the slings.  Thank you to everyone who gave me their opinions!  :o)

Here are the two that I picked:



Fresh Air Red and Blue and Teal Dots Pouch Sling in Moda Fabrics Sizes M and L

I decided to get one of each type of sling—a ring sling and a pouch sling.  I really loved the fleece pouch sling that I posted about but it was $54.00 and I could get these two slings for that same price so I decided to not get the fleece one.

I can't wait to get them in the mail!  I hear slings are fabulous!
