MAISIE PAULINE

Due Date: June 13th, 2008

Born: May 30th, 2008 at 6:34 am

Stats: 7 lbs, 4.9 oz -- 19 3/4 inches

She's a gorgeous girl with a little dark brown hair and blue eyes... she stole mommy and daddy's heart from the first moment we laid eyes on her!

ONE MONTH:

Whew! What a whirlwind month it's been! Maisie is a really good baby and we're so happy she's a part of our family. Dan and I have studied her from top to bottom and have concluded she's perfect. :) She seems to have mom's dark hair, eyes, and toes, and dad's mouth and temperament. Overall she looks a bit more like dad than like mom.

Maisie has pretty much smiled from day one. She's a very happy little baby who, like all newborns, likes to eat, sleep & cuddle with mom and dad! She loves bathtime. She often does the "Popeye-eye,"" which is when she opens one eye first when she wakes up. When she's hungry and I put her over my shoulder, she bobs her head back & forth, like a bird does when they're looking for food. It's so cute! Being a mother is the greatest feeling in the world, and I'm loving every moment of it!

See Maisie in action!

Hello! Just wanted to say hi & say how excited I am for you guys!
I will be 38 years old in June & I am due June 23rd with our 2nd son.
We also have a son who turned 9 this month.
We had to wait 5 long years to get the go ahead to try for another child due to my arthritis and some other health conditions, but I am doing really well! :) Just very ready to have him. I am very uncomfortable now & the heartburn is killing me!
Just wanted to say congratulations to you both!
Blessings

Thanks for your message. I'm trying not to worry... I am however finding myself constantly thinking about it!! I'm going in circles with my own theories and driving myself crazy! It's even strange because the reality of it is that it would be silly to worry about him being big cause it's not even something that I can control... if he's big he's big... I just hope he's healthy!! And anyway I was just talking to my sister and her friend was even enduced last year because they told her that her baby was too big and he turned out to only be 6pounds!! Fingers crossed for us all over the next few weeks!!

Hello, lol about the snow. It really is the winter that will never end! We are supposed to have another front from Alaska the middle of the week, I hope the temp stays up and we just get some rain. But May as well bring in May with some snow lol. I did find out that I will get somewhat of a baby shower. The company my boyfriend works for the main bosses wife, who has bought me almost everything that I need, well she wants to have like a party-bbq for me with all the employees and spouses. I am so excited, but really don't like being the center of attention lol. But am really happy they are doing something for us. Its helps since I am so far from home. Just over 6 weeks to go..OMG!! So much to do lol. Well I should get back to work, are things going well for you? Are you doing better since the unfortunate day passed by?

I don't mean to make you nervous...every baby is different! But I was totally unprepared as to do with a newborn baby that wouldn't sleep! We don't have any family with babies, so we just had to roll with it! I thought that my job would prepare me for the sleep deprivation......wow....was I ever underestimating that! But like I said, every baby is different.....my friend's baby slept +++ and always has. Don't worry about it until it comes, love!

Oh, wow! Congratulations on the new job!! That's amazing. Sounds like a pretty great gig. It's so rare to find an employer willing to take on a seriously pregnant woman. Have you started yet? I'm still pretty much paranoid about the cord around the neck. I broke out my fetal doppler all weekend each time it had been a couple of hours since I felt the baby move. I hate feeling so afraid. You're totally right though, how the heck am I supposed to know what all this is supposed to feel like? One of the things my doc told me to be on the lookout for is increased fetal movement (as well as decreased). I have no idea what I'm supposed to do with that info. Each time the baby moves a lot I think, is this it? So frustrating. My husband is really worried too. This morning I woke up to him touching my belly to see if he could feel the baby moving. It actually melted my heart but I wish he were doing that out of happiness & excitement instead of checking to see if all is well in there. Ugh. I have an appt with my regular doc on Thursday so I will be grilling her on all this. I just wish I could fast forward a few weeks. I'm still working and plan to for about another month I think. I may be able to swing it so I can do some work from home. I would gladly take that over having to do this brutal hour long commute to & from downtown L.A. every day. How are you feeling? Have you had your shower yet? Your appt to check on your little one is this week, right?
