Looking forward to: Seeing our little guy again on the 11th and meeting him!
We had our first prenatal appointment with our doula this week to go over our birth plan and talk about the pregnancy. We made some changes to the birth plan and we’ll meet again on January 18th to go over when to call her, what to pack and pain relief techniques.
I’ve been drinking one cup of Red Raspberry Leaf tea every day since 32 weeks to prep my uterus and plan to up it around 36/37 weeks. I’m really curious if it’ll make a difference in the effectiveness of my contractions and length of labor.
We also bought more things to decorate Logan’s room this week and are pretty much done with his room except a mobile I want to make and getting curtains. We’ll use Caleb’s crib mattress when Logan is ready to go in his room and get Caleb a full size mattress. It’s funny how much more relaxed you are with prepping for baby number 2 and how you realize what’s a necessity and what’s not. It’s still exciting, but you just feel more at ease and not in a rush to get things done.
