People have asked…

Are you having a baby shower?  What can we get you?

The answer is that as Jews we don’t have baby showers.  With a boy, gifts are brought to the Bris and with a girl, gifts are brought when people come and visit baby and mommy at home.

That being said people have asked what they can get us so I have made a list of the things we will need/want when theSQL arrives.  What would really be appreciated is new born nappies 🙂

I think she has turned!

So, in this post my OB mentioned that theSQL will turn into a head down feet up (or vice versa) position soon and that it would hurt like a mother…

I think the last two days has been her turning, my belly was hard and sore constantly and I couldnt even touch it without being in pain.  Now the top of my belly, which was soft before, has gone harder and I am getting kicks/punches right under my ribs which I never had before.

Im not as sore today as I was yesterday, although Im still a little uncomfortable but Im sure I will get used to it 🙂
