The stitches came out today, but Sprout stayed in. Guess he’s not quite ready to come out. After the surgery, however, the doctor told us that Abby’s cervix is 50% effaced and 2cm dilated! At least it’s a start. Abby had contractions for a few hours after surgery that were so minor she couldn’t feel [...]

So we just found out that we saw our maternal-fetal medicine specialist for the last time today. We like him. He sewed me up many moons ago, and gave me ultrasounds every week for a very long time and of course, he smells nice. And then after today’s 32 week ultrasound, he stuck out his [...]

This made me sob. I’d like to blame pregnancy hormones, but I’m pretty sure I would have cried regardless. You should have seen me watching the documentary on baby baboons last week.
Gus is a tender lion too. He’s getting good at cuddling without putting any weight on my belly [...]

Here we are, back from the missing. We have both been exhausted, stressed, and I am still recovering from a horrible cold/flu-like thingie-ma-jiggie (sp?). Not much has been happening, hence the lack of posts. We’re pretty boring lately. I have, however, started rearranging the rooms and turning Abby’s office into the nursery, since it’s going [...]
Abby: A Retrospective

Halfway through this whole pregnancy thing is as good a time as any to stop and survey Abby’s baby bump. Little Sprout is not so little anymore and he is getting strong. Abby first felt him kick on Tuesday evening – the day of surgery, and I felt Sprout move for the first time on [...]
Drunken noodle redux

In the past few weeks I have conducted a highly scientific study of Thai food in the Cambridge area, in particular, of the drunken noodle dish. I have come to the following conclusions:
Montien’s drunken noodle wasn’t very spicy (at *all*), and lacked on noodle, actually. I think there were only 3 noodles in [...]
Happy Mother’s Day!

Not only is today Mother’s Day (and sort of our first), but it is also our 6 year anniversary (when we met), AND today marks our 7th week of pregnancy! That’s a lot for one day.
This weekend has been quite eventful as we told our parents and siblings about being pregnant. Everyone is so excited [...]
