We're babywearing again in our household!


I am super pleased to announce our third (and final) blessing was born Feb 1, 2009 at home, a beautiful baby boy 10lbs 2 oz. We named him Zayden-William. He just loves to be worn! Its fantastic. Such a wonderful baby!!


My energy is in abundance, and I have decided to start taking orders again, earlier than expected. Life's blessings sure are wonderful! We are so pleased to have three beautiful children! The house is filled again with baby slings, cloth diapers and breast pads gallore! Its fantastic!

We got a breech brat! lol!

Photobucket
About 7 weeks ago or so, my midwife announced to me, our baby boy, due January 29th was breech. This scared me, but when I went back to my next appt, he had went head down. WELL, last week I went in again, and found out the little stinker is head up again. Im 35.5 weeks about now and I am nearing the end of the road here lol! My midwife will come to my house on the 6th and check again. I have been getting a lot of people to pray for baby Zayden and I that he will turn for the birth if it is what God wants. I am terrified of having a c-section, but if that is the safest route for my baby, then that will be what I am happy with. My first two were births in a hospital, my daughter I had an epidural, my son who was a whopping 10.8lbs, I had natural. This time I am planning a homebirth. In Ontario, you cannot deliever a breech baby at home. I did try an inversion tonight. dont know if I was successful or not. Im a bit nervous about trying new things. I wouldnt want to hurt the baby at all in any way. I know that whether I have the baby at home, at the hospital or in surgury.. I just want him to be healthy.

Babywearing during pregnancy.

Edited- October 10th - I took a picture yesterday afternoon of my big man in his carrier.

I cannot believe the looks I get from people when I am wearing my 18 month old son and carrying my other son inside me. Its so bizzare. I am used to people saying to me "that cant be comfortable!" when I wasnt pregnant carrying my big old boy, then only to make them realize that its so absolutly wonderful, but to now have them just blatantly FREAKING OUT because I am babywearing during pregnancy. Just makes me wanna go bonkers!

I looove being pregnant, and I love wearing my son. I always carry him on my back now, and he just loves it! I really need to get a pregnancy picture of me carrying him. There is no reason for a woman to stop wearing there baby if they are pregnant if they are used to doing it anyways. I dont see the difference between that and bending down to push a stroller or pull a wagon. This is a great article on baby wearing while pregnant for those interested!
