Friday night, after we got home from the hospital and Taylor was downloading the pics from his camera. I still had all my cool bracelets on; the red one says CODEINE, as in “don’t give me codeine or I will throw up everywhere. Of course, I threw up anyway but that’s a different story…
If you wear giant oversized tees with wide necks you can do skin-to-skin with your baby and not expose yourself if your neighbors glance in the window.
November 8th, 2012.
Welcome baby :3 Only three percent of babies are born on their due dates, I guess mine is fancy like that.
I wouldn’t want anyone to think I haven’t been posting because I’m doing something crazy like IDK having a baby or something. I’m not, I’ve just been doing this:
Please enjoy this peek at my workspace, I’m currently in the middle of making seven mini killjoy banners, yikes.
If you like to be kept updated about any baby progress you can follow me on twitter.
SIKE I HOPE YOU DIDN’T THINK I WAS TALKING ABOUT BABY LARAMIE BECAUSE
STILL PREGNANT. Nope, I’m talking about this one who turned eleven today!
We already had her birthday party with her friends, of course, but we still have our presents to give to her (we got her the second Wildwood book, Under Wildwood, and stuffies of Marceline and Cake from Adventure Time). She actually goes to her dad’s on Monday nights so this morning I’m going to make a little cake to have with her after school, or possibly at the hospital if things start happening (ya rite).
You know what’s not labour? Prelabour. So yeah. Nothing is happening here. I’m feeling pretty disappointed- I was really really positive the baby would be born this weekend, but instead I’ve just been sitting around having occasion contractions that go nowhere, and it sucks.
One thing that is really nice though is my mom came over from the Island to stay (if nothing happens, baby-wise overnight she’s going home and then she’ll come back when it DOES happen). Usually when she visits it’s just for an afternoon and usually when I’ve been working, so it’s been great to just hang out and talk without fifty daycare babies hassling me! Also, I’ve been trying to keep busy so I don’t just sit around and wallow about the fact that I’m still pregnant, so I’ve made SO MANY banners. I’ve actually almost finished all the orders I had from before the Jezebel post, which means I only have, oh…. twenty or so more to do (seriously I’ve sold like 20 in the last three days). Fortunately they are mostly quite small and/or simple, but I have made some more complicated pieces…
These were samples I did to show someone how they’d look, but on the strength of this I already have people interested in a banner of cats and a banner of fruits! Anyway I’m going to spend the rest of the weekend powering through orders since I’m absolutely positively definitely NOT having a baby. Nuh-uh. No way. Not gonna happen.
(Yes, I’m trying to reverse psychologe my unborn baby WHAT OF IT.)
No baby human yet but a baby dog:
(My mom’s shih tzu/bichon puppy Tess, she’s so cute :3)
I don’t know whether or not I’m going to get around to taking belly pictures today. I had a doctor’s appointment this morning and she said I could possible go into labour tonight, and then I came home and passed my mucous plug (SORRYYYYYY I know that sounds gross). Also, this happened:
… and my etsy BLEW UP overnight so I guess BYE BYE to my free time because I’m swamped in orders now. SWAMPED, it’s nuts! Of course this would happen right before I have a baby, haha.
P.S. the Jezebel commentary is positive, they were goofing around.
