Leaf 🌱 I have these two... They are both Vera Bradley and I may be obsessed. The smaller one is a messenger style bag and it was supposed to just be a car bag with extras that was always there, but it seems to have become my go to bag. I usually have wipes, a few.extra prefolds, 2 outfits for her, a muslin swaddle, a burp cloth, and a bottle with Breast milk just in case. Yesterday I actually stuck the bottle in an inside pocket with an ice pack and it worked beautifully. I realize I may be asking for trouble by not bringing extra clothes for myself. I should probably switch to the bigger bag and add a few more items... But I also don't really know what I am doing yet 😀😀 I also feel like the pink bag is HUGE and I don't know if it is overkill. ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180320/0e59ec20b17000175bd975ad736f11a0.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180320/79eaa50fe99edf3188172ac917f93ffb.jpg)

Ugh Leaf 🌱, that made me roll my eyes. Are you seeing a midwife or an OB? Even if tou aren't a client of your local midwives, you could call them to ask for recommendations.

nuggetrn Just slide a plain shirt or tank top into one of the side pockets. It’s always good to have a back up! snowmoon My chiro was able to suggest a semi-local office. I think the snow/ice is going to prevent me from getting there any time soon but I’m definitely going to try to go if I end up having to schedule a Csection.

I'm not feeling super good today...woke up with a headache and a sore throat. I have a dr appointment in a little while and I'm hoping she'll be able to tell me the time for my rcs so I can finish making child care arrangements.

We are getting all the rounds of lactation consultant, pediatrician, and newborn hearing tech this morning. Baby looks great and only lost 2 ounces from birth so we should be discharged in a few hours. I can't wait to be home.

L is not even one month old and I’m already on season 6 of The Office. I love Jim Halpert.

Good luck kayladawn91!! I've been sent over to an orthopedic surgeon from Neurology. I'm so glad the ortho doc squeezed me on last minute today. Sitting in the waiting room now. I need to have surgery on both wrists after baby is born. 50%+ nerve damage on both sides. Ortho is going to do my injections today and discuss surgery.

Went to my dr appointment today and ended up having to see a different dr because mine had to go to the hospital for one of her other patients. Had to take my bp 3 times since their machine wasn't reading it. They also haven't called yet to schedule my rcs, but the dr I saw today said that they should have it on the books by Thursday. I'm not dilated at all, so I'm just going to assume that this little boy is going to be as stubborn as his sister and actually make me wait until eviction day. Only 20 more days.

I had my follow up today, my belly is still measuring 31 (I’m 35 tomorrow) so she got out the ultrasound machine and baby looks perfectly normal on the inside. She's already 5 1/2 lbs. Doctor doesn't seem worried at all. Thank goodness.

Yay!!! Hope the induction goes quickly and smoothly for you kayladawn91!! Hope you get through the rounds and discharged soon cp3! Yesterday we had our newborn photo shoot and all I did was sit around and watch and nurse L every few hours but I was somehow so exhausted by the end of it. I am so excited to see the proofs but I have to wait two very long weeks! She did post one on SM yesterday - see below 😊 Today I have my first PP OB visit. I’m glad for an excuse to get out of the house but a doctor’s appointment is not exactly “fun.” I’m so antsy I want to get out and do all the fun things! Here is the pic of L - PDQ will poof. *Poof*
