I love watching Cain grow. It all happens so fast. One minute he is a tiny little baby, waking me up every couple of hours to eat and be changed. Now he is a big 22 lber and he is damn near crawling, and he's getting his second tooth, and pulling up all over everyting. I can't believe it. I look at the kids at work and I try to imagine Cain being a 3 year old, talking and running around and saying the funniest stuff. Kids are so honest, they tell you exactly what they think. Bayli- a little girl in my class- asked me the other day if I had another baby in my tummy. After I got done laughing, I had to explain to her that I do not- I am just fat. lol But it is things like that that I cant wait to see what Cain is going to come up with. At the same time, I am missing my little baby. I wish that they could stay smaller for just a little bit longer. I miss the little guy who wanted to be held and cuddled next to momma. My little guy does not like to be a cuddle bug. He is so curious and wants to explore. Which is good cause that is what he should be doing, but momma misses the cuddles hehe
As for the other part of what Bayli said. Yeah. I need to do something to lose some weight. Especially if I want to think about having another baby. I need to be in decent shape especially if I am going to have to do bedrest again. Not only that but I would look a little better, and I would probably have a little more energy. Now, to quit talking about it and actually doing it.
I watched 'The Business of Being Born' just recently. It was a very good documentary about having a baby in the hospital vs. going to a midwife and having a home birth. Before all the complications we were planning on having Cain in a birth center and I wanted a water birth. Post cerclage I was told that that was not possible because I was high risk. watching this movie made me sad for what I missed out on. I wonder though, when I have the next one, what about after the cerclage is removed? I wonder if it would be possible to have that experience then, assuming that it doesnt go as last time did and the cerclage is being removed at birth. If it is possible that may be something to look into. I wonder if I could do it. I had an epidural with Cain. I would like to think that I am strong enough to go au natural. It would be nice not to have all those IV's and stuff attached to you. I think it would be nice to be able to move around. Best of all would be the chance to help deliver my own baby. To be the one that brings him/her to my chest and to hold on to the baby for a few minutes. I didnt get that with Cain. Jav didnt get to cut the cord. Don't get me wrong, I think I had a pretty decent birth experience with Cain, I was lucky. But it would be nice to entertain the thought that maybe we might be able to do it the way we had wanted to the first time.
Well its time for me to go to work, so I leave you with pictures!
