Do My Posts Ever Have a Theme Other Than Randomness?

Somehow I lost 2 pounds for this doctor's visit.  I'm guessing it's because of all the work I did moving, which by the way, is still ongoing.  It might take months to unpack myself.  (Side note, that sounds kinda dirty but I can't really explain why.)  You wouldn't think I'd EVER be concerned about losing 2 pounds, but this little loss means I've only gained 3 pounds in the last 7 weeks and me thinks that is bad.  But WTF do I know anyway?  Doctor Awesome did some double checking to make sure measurements were all good, which they were, so she wasn't too concerned.

Hypnobirthing is still going well.  I kind of love it actually.  It's really cool to learn a different perspective on birthing and makes you want to do some things differently.  We talked to my doctor about "the birth plan" today because I had some questions about anti-biotics in my baby's eyes and such.  She was still awesome about it but also made sure to let me know to keep it brief and not be disappointed if it doesn't go exactly as planned.  I was sort of torn about this because she is Doctor Awesome and I pretty much thought she would just tell me how stupendous all my ideas are and how she will bend over backwards to do whatever I want.  But then I got over myself because there are only a handful of things I am dead set on, and if the other things go a little awry, I'm not overly concerned about it.  So then I continued loving and worshipping her.  I can also kind of see how some people can get really crazy anal and upset if it's not perfect and I just don't want to put that kind of pressure on it.  My son's birth was amazing and while I'll do it a little differently this time, I am not upset or regretful in the least about the way his birth went.

I've struggled over the etiquette of having a baby shower this time around or not.  My friends and family have convinced me that it is ok for me to have a shower because it has been 7 years since I had a baby.  I still feel kind of weird about it, but now I actually have 2 showers planned, so I guess I don't feel that weird about it right?  One is this Saturday and one is in March.  I am mostly excited to see all my friends and fam, so it should be pretty great.

So that's what's going on here.  Sleeping, eating, and heaving myself about...
