26 Weeks

Justin said he would no longer pose for my blog until I posted a prego photo! So, here it is. I still didn't want to be alone so I begged Mae to pose with me! She looks like a proud "Protector," but in reality she would just lick any predator to come our way. Don't tell anyone...

I'm feeling pretty good, but I'm still in that "just kind of fat" stage. She (who still remains nameless) is kicking all the the time, and that is pretty amazing. I can't believe she supposedly weighs 2 pounds already. It is going by so quickly, and I have mixed emotions about that. I have all those questions over and over again in my mind- "Will I be a good mother?"- "Will I try for natural birth or am I crazy?"- "What will she look like?"- and the list goes on.

My good friend Jen does the birth hypnosis/meditation thing and has had 2 kids w/no meds. If you want to hear more about it, she would love to email you. I lasted as long as I could w/o the epi and was very grateful to take it when I finally did. But of course, I didn't have a plan like hynosis to deal with the pain,which would have made it different...I guess!

You look gawgeous, dahling.

I cannot believe you are already 26 weeks along! Man, it's flown by for me! :) You look great Casey!!
I got to 6 cm without the epidural and I would never go without it again! It was so wonderful!! However, being induced with Pitocin and having your water broken artifically makes it much harder than going au natural!! Good luck with your decision and know that you can try to go without it and can always change your mind!!
You'll be a wonderful mother and Justin will be a great dad. You two are going to love parenthood!

Casey-You look so cute with your little belly:)I think every woman expecting goes through all those questions. I told myself that I would try and go natural but didn't limit the option of pain meds. So after 5 1/2 hrs I was grateful for my epidural and it actually helped speed up my labor b/c I was more relaxed. But every woman is different. Only two weeks left until I get to go through labor a second time...Yikes!

Casey you look so cute! I think that this is the "fun" prego stage b/c people can tell you are prego(not fat)and you are still small enough to feel really good! Enjoy being pregnant, it goes by really quickly!!!(As you can tell, I enjoy being pregnant!)
