I usually buy them themed books at Halloween and Christmas, but Easter I just find sweet titles that remind me of each of them. This year, Remy is getting <a href="https://rstyle.me/+IlvVUyUqiqBHfAYqvO05sw" target="_blank">"The Magical Yet"</a> that reminds kids to be patient, try try again, and persevere. I thought this was perfect for her because she can't wait until she's a grownup. Bryn is getting <a href="https://rstyle.me/+BtUGz9aT3dzZSiC737Eu_Q" target="_blank">"Wild"</a> because, honestly? The cover reminded me of her and her wild hair. Rhys is getting a sweet book called <a href="https://rstyle.me/+pp-H6z0CPNKxt-T1bc-80w" target="_blank">"Petra"</a> about a rock.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>A swimsuit</b> // something I'd be buying them for summer anyway! It truly is a "stuffer" and just gets us all in the mood for the warm weather headed our way. Remy and Bryn are getting <a href="https://rstyle.me/+hR_ZzXIICIpj4Os8IrZR7Q" target="_blank">this cute little number</a> from Gap Factory, and Rhys is getting <a href="https://rstyle.me/+oB5tSfbGizHwn5iUSMBCmw" target="_blank">this one-piece rash guard</a> from Target.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>A stuffed animal</b> // any excuse to buy a Slumberkins mini. I bought Bryn's caterpillar first because we've called her "Brynnie Bug" for her entire life. Rhys is getting a little beetle, and Remy is getting a strawberry. Their entire spring line this year was absolute perfection, and much of it is sold out. The <a href="https://rstyle.me/+8fjcydr9bz3hA3JdZkGS7w" target="_blank">beetle</a> is still available, along with a <a href="https://rstyle.me/+mKWUVj0g26qeclJgcAJbvw" target="_blank">bee</a> and <a href="https://rstyle.me/+ni5NOVKvjrY6osWAUurtnA" target="_blank">dragonfly</a> if you'd like a bug. There's also two different colors of the cutest little <a href="https://rstyle.me/+i2gwKD5GzR3097TRoArr7w" target="_blank">bunny</a> still on the site.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Summer shoes</b> // again, something else I'd be buying them anyway! Pro tip: great place to save money and gift hand-me-downs. <a href="https://rstyle.me/+y4dl88hNBTKK2T79FsRAMw" target="_blank">Bryn's sandals</a> were Remy's two summers ago, and <a href="https://rstyle.me/+nq2JhSsX6CsKalg67p8piA" target="_blank">Rhys's moccasins</a> were Bryn's when she was a baby.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Sweet novelty</b> // I like to include candy that's just a little extra fun or special, and this year the girls are getting chocolate <a href="https://rstyle.me/+pHbjYyGuovQTEQXT6XyLGQ" target="_blank">dinosaur eggs</a> from Niagara Chocolate. There's a chocolate triceratops inside! There's also <a href="https://rstyle.me/+ryQgPacLf77RK0z09qKwRw" target="_blank">unicorn</a> and a <a href="https://rstyle.me/+8QSeRbz1VmWBRt8m3JUTKg" target="_blank">bunny</a> versions that are so cute. And for Rhys, heโs getting a pack of carrot baby food because he recently started solids. And carrots in an Easter basket is funny, friends.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Various goodies</b> // I like to pick things up throughout the year and stash them away as I see them. These include play doh, bubbles, character figurines, target dollar spot novelties, etc. </p><p><br /></p><p>All of the basket sources are linked in my LTK!

I'm really excited about it, and I hope you all love it as much as I do. </p><p><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*links contain affiliates*</span></i></p><p><br /></p><p>I've had such a positive response over the past several months sharing my "this or that" segment on my Instagram stories. For those not familiar, I like to share dupes for trendy and popular items. I enjoy finding less expensive items for kids the most, but also love home and some women's fashion items as well! I have a highlight saved on my instagram page if you'd ever like to look through the things that I've shared so far.</p><p><br /></p><p>Secondly, I always get a strong response when I share fun finds and curated roundups, like Christmas stockings and Easter baskets. So I've decided to combine those and put together a series where I find comparable items at tiered pricing-- high, middle, and low.</p><p><br /></p><p>So was born Splurge, Spend, or Save. I just really want parents like me to understand that they don't need to give their kids the most expensive things to feel like you've given them a carefully curated experience-- Easter Baskets in this case. I really, really enjoy finding fun novelty items, and I enjoy finding inexpensive alternatives even more! I think I've put together a really fun roundup for the Save portion of today's post, and I'd be excited to give it to my kids.</p><p><br /></p><p>Things that I like to include in Easter baskets are anything that we'd have to buy for them anyway for the spring and summer. For example: a new swim suit, some summer sandals or new sneakers, outdoor toys, bubbles, and sidewalk chalk. I always love to include a new stuffed animal friend, some candy, and a book.

As you can see, you can still find some novelty items that are just a little extra special-- like the confetti play doh at just over $1/can, and the egg sidewalk chalk! So fun and festive. I also really loved browsing the Squishmallow selection at Five Below (the stuffed animal in this basket), and found a bunch of bug ones! So spring-like, and a little nod to the bug spring collection from <a href="https://rstyle.me/cz-n/hnt9rvdp5sx" target="_blank">Slumberkins</a> this year. </p><p><br /></p><p>Obviously if you chose not to add a swimsuit and sandals in this basket, it would be really inexpensive, but once again those are my favorite things to add as easter basket fillers.

We made our way to the little New Mexico hospital about an hour from our home, and were told that they didn't keep babies less than 36 weeks. I was laboring fast, and they told me that if they had more time they'd be transporting me via helicopter to a bigger hospital in Albuquerque. Once she was born, they decided to keep her there. We spent 12 days in the hospital with her before she was finally discharged.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">There's something to be said about smaller hospitals. It's like a small town. You get to know people. We had the same nurses over and over again during our stay. My labor and delivery nurse was also the hospital's lactation consultant. I'm still Facebook friends with a few of our nurses from that stay.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I remember coming back to the hospital once for a lactation appointment and I brought them a platter of Subway sandwiches. It felt like the least I could do to thank them for their companionship and care throughout our stay.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Then I was pregnant for my third baby. I went into preterm labor at 31 weeks and was kept on the high risk unit for three weeks before he was born. Then he had a 30-day NICU stay.

I then designed a little Thank You sign and put paintings that the girls have done through the printer and taped those to the side of the bins.

I wasn't sure how I was going to carry them all into the hospital, so I took my city select double stroller without the seats and piled them all into its bottom basket. It worked great, but I felt like a little bit of a lunatic pushing an empty stroller around the hospital after I dropped the baskets off, ha.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">I'm not a huge grand gestures person-- small gestures are more my speed.

I know it's going to be a core memory for our kids-- making our soup while we watch the early NFL game, and then enjoying our lunch together while we cheer on our Bills. We have some tried and true recipes from our childhoods that we love, but we've also been trying some new recipes!</p><p><br /></p><p>One of our favorite new recipes that we just started making last year is White Chicken Chili. It's absolutely delicious and has become a staple at our house. The best part is that you can use leftover chicken from another meal, and it's just spicy enough to warm you up.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.thecookierookie.com/creamy-white-chicken-chili-cream-cheese/" target="_blank">Click here</a> to see the recipe we use, with a few adjustments. We usually halve the recipe, and it still makes enough for us to have leftovers the next day! We also didn't buy tortilla strips the first time that we made it, but we did the second time and they're a total necessity. They're the <strike>cherry</strike> tortilla strip on top.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I need to know-- what are your favorite fall staples?

It was the sweetest day celebrating Remy's third birthday and Bryn's first birthday, and I don't want to skip over all the details of it. We chose to have a <i>super</i> small joint party for the girls this year, as their birthdays are less than three weeks apart, and the pandemic was still a consideration.</p><p><br /></p><p>Remy was so into dinosaurs at that time (she still loves them, but was completely obsessed around the time of her birthday), so I chose a Dino theme for her and got most of our decorations from Meri Meri. For Bryn, we chose a bug theme as we call her Brynnie Bug, and I used the Rifle Paper Co bug print as my inspiration. I made their little cakes myself, and my super talented friend Nicole made their cookies and shipped them to me all the way from her home in Connecticut.</p><p><br /></p><p>We just kept it super easy for food and ordered pizza and had a huge variety of fresh fruit. We wanted to enjoy our company after a long year of isolation, and chose to focus on them instead of being in the kitchen all morning.</p><p><br /></p><p>Remy still talks about her birthday party, and she's already looking forward to turning 4! Bryn had the most fun day as well, and surprisingly really dove into her smash cake. Here's a peak into our little lunch party.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgWcELKdWfLWxgeCv0Gd6EczX0OnDA6hlAywISL_HsWlRxGiKM8afcFCwmpV1uw91MBRZYS25QzFadAw8dXvo5pj39JV4UjXfVN5KhrALSHHaGXRJ7AwJHa-7NNfFjJKj_3vEHxsOQkKer87V4jn_XNmB_XSPcIcxv7IPOpHi50izXguifHi39ZLa0mqQ=s604" style="margin-left: 1em;

I chose the Hearth and Hand dollhouse from Target, and I'm so glad that I purchased it at the beginning of October because it seems to be really hard to find now!</p><p><br /></p><p>I've been documenting our progress in my <a href="instagram.com/tauriestudd" target="_blank">Instagram</a> stories, and it's been really fun hearing from so many people that either love dollhouses or are just cheering me on. </p><p><br /></p><p>I planned to renovate it a little bit to make it pretty for Remy, and there is so much inspiration out there! I had no idea what a "world" dollhouses have, but I spent a lot of time choosing just the right accessories for Remy.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpeMVdHuWyCRHpI9J8tiOJbHonlEaScmh4UONtT3FF0Uqhfo-HwOgTY1YXQbPoPYQbo-pNAAXahhsI-U569d1YsfKn6tQAEzjsm52kwM5SMLrpKY_nO9_d8h63MBVypu8aV-FTgJYmbOmY/s2048/DSC_6237.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1365" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpeMVdHuWyCRHpI9J8tiOJbHonlEaScmh4UONtT3FF0Uqhfo-HwOgTY1YXQbPoPYQbo-pNAAXahhsI-U569d1YsfKn6tQAEzjsm52kwM5SMLrpKY_nO9_d8h63MBVypu8aV-FTgJYmbOmY/w426-h640/DSC_6237.jpg" width="426" /></a></div><br /><p>I wallpapered the first and third floors and painted the second floor the same color as Remy's bedroom walls. The "wallpaper" that I used was cardstock that I printed on from my home printer. The third floor was super easy to wallpaper, as I just traced the disassembled walls and then mod-podged the paper on. The first floor was a little trickier, but it wasn't too bad. I'd say that it took me about an hour one night after the girls were in bed.</p><p><br /></p><div>Initially, I was going to paint the green doors, but I think they ended up working really well.

We lived in Crownpoint, NM when Remy was born which is home to the monthly Navajo Rug Auction. We went almost every month and really miss going. Before we moved back to New York, we bought two rugs. One hangs on the wall in our dining room and the other hangs on the wall in Remy's bedroom. I mod-podged the mini clothespins to the wall and they're holding the rug up. We'll see how long those last before she or Bryn destroy them.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5CRF_YiYDRB3FqiA0n-Nxw7JPanKLyWxow4gHHTtZg3a87vQjo1ajLjrhLVIgRAtRAzF6yT1Jj-fc0gT73lkCaWfwlLsexiql243XeQ0VTe-aI2pX6EphlAMNbyUnUSrXXO3tPXuRv1lS/s2048/DSC_6237.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1365" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5CRF_YiYDRB3FqiA0n-Nxw7JPanKLyWxow4gHHTtZg3a87vQjo1ajLjrhLVIgRAtRAzF6yT1Jj-fc0gT73lkCaWfwlLsexiql243XeQ0VTe-aI2pX6EphlAMNbyUnUSrXXO3tPXuRv1lS/w426-h640/DSC_6237.jpg" width="426" /></a></div><br /><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Sources</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.target.com/p/wooden-dollhouse-with-furniture-hearth-hand-with-magnolia/-/A-52609030" target="_blank">dollhouse</a> // <a href="https://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/dollhouse-kitchen-accessory-set/?pkey=s%7Cdoll%20house%7C24" target="_blank">kitchen set</a> // <a href="https://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/dollhouse-living-room-accessory-set/?pkey=s%7Cdoll%20house%7C24" target="_blank">living room set</a> // <a href="https://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/dollhouse-bathroom-set/?pkey=s%7Cdoll%20house%7C24" target="_blank">bathroom set</a> // <a href="https://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/dollhouse-playground-accessory-set/?pkey=s%7Cdoll%20house%7C24" target="_blank">playground set</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.mysweetmuffin.com/collections/maileg/products/maileg-big-sister-mouse-in-a-box-gold-skirt" target="_blank">big sister mouse</a> // <a href="https://www.mysweetmuffin.com/collections/maileg/products/maileg-little-sister-mouse-in-a-box-gold-skirt" target="_blank">little sister mouse</a> // <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/sweetadalaine" target="_blank">miniature loveys</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/A2DesignShop" target="_blank">miniature nugget couch</a> // <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/513351858/dollhouse-miniature-house-mini-home-tiny?ref=listing-free-shipping-bundle-1" target="_blank">miniature dollhouse</a> // <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/904863066/navajo-pattern-about-3x4-rug-or-wall?ref=shop_home_active_14" target="_blank">miniature navajo rug</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Tauriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13669464509696052919noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600091875116966924.post-64174593817172216252020-08-31T12:18:00.000-06:002020-08-31T12:18:40.060-06:00Remy's Room<p>I've been meaning to share Remy's bedroom ever since I shared Bryn's nursery a few months ago. We've had some baseboard painting to finish and some art to hang, but I think it's almost there.</p><p><br /></p><p>Remy has slept on a full-size mattress on the floor for over a year now, and it works great for us. If she wakes in the night, we can go snuggle her back to sleep without cramming ourselves into a toddler bed, and we've chosen to keep it on the floor for now so she doesn't fall. The rest of the room is baby-proofed so if she does get out of bed in the night, we know that she's safe.</p><p><br /></p><p>We didn't get to do a nursery for her because we lived in a tiny little one-bedroom townhouse in New Mexico when she was born. Her "big girl room" has been fun to finish because we know her now and can incorporate the things she loves.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiO21ouWvN9JmoiX9Dg1wf7zc4xugWA8hyphenhyphenYoNf3g9E6Vu4takb8I1e-QmWebXhyphenhyphenJxKRGDbc0I120Gf2FmhTLzzwGjegptUlNSmqgzj9D7e9IrDsl04LzmvpDvm5BzcfHip9N_wGqBDzZ-eM/s2048/DSC_2298.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

She was born completely unexpectedly at 34 weeks 2 days. Because of that, we were hyper sensitive to any and all changes and feelings that I had during my pregnancy with Bryn. Bryn's birth story is long and multi-faceted.

Because of some symptoms that I'd had over the weekend, my doctor decided to check for dilation at my 33 week appointment. She said I was 1-2cm and starting to thin out. She said it was unusual that early, but she'd keep an eye on it. I was told to take it easy and to try not to worry, especially since I hadn't noticed any real contractions yet.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
That night, Iโd had enough time to think about what Iโd
been told at the doctorโs office and had some concerns. I sent a message
through the patient portal with a few questions. I wanted to know if I should
have steroid shots for the babyโs lungs or if we should do a fetal fibronectin
test.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The next morning, a nurse called me. She said that a FFN
test was only valid before a cervical check so thatโs probably why it wasnโt
offered to me. She also said that they didnโt do steroid shots for the babyโs
lungs after 32 or 33 weeks in their office (I canโt remember which), but she
said that just me worrying about the baby coming early was producing chemicals
that would help her lungs to mature quicker.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I was later told that this wasnโt accurate information,
so Iโm not sure why I was told these things. I did eventually end up getting the steroid shots.</div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In hindsight, this day was a little crazy. I had a
tearing/ripping sensation in my upper right abdomen all day. That evening, we
decided to go out to eat.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A sweet older lady stopped me while I was putting Remy
into her high chair and said, โyouโre waiting until May to have that baby,
right?โ I told her hopefully April. She replied that she hoped it was warmer by
then. It was bitterly cold that evening.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
We went home and did our regular nightly routine. Remy
got a bath, we Face-timed my mom. Remy danced her little heart out to merengue
music. I told my mom about how Iโd been
hurting and she told me to call my doctor if I was concerned. We put Remy to
bed, and I researched my pain a little bit. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I found that upper right quadrant pain can be
indicative of preeclampsia, so I checked my blood pressure on our at-home
machine. It was 121/73, which was high for me, but still okay. I told Rog
that if it got worse overnight, Iโd call, and if it still hurt at all in the
morning, Iโd call.</span></span><div><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Sunday, March 1</b></span></span></div><div><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span></span></div><div><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">34 weeks, 6 days. </span></span></div><div><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I woke up Sunday morning and still hurt the same as the night before. It was just before 8am, so I called my OB office's on-call number. I spoke with the nurse and told her what was going on, and she paged the doctor. While I waited for a call back, I went upstairs and got ready just in case I needed to head out.

We mostly just hung out for a few hours. Rog went to the cafeteria and brought me back some food... I'm not sure what we were doing to pass the time.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;">Around 5:00, I got another cervical check from the OB resident. She asked me if I was sure I wasn't contracting, and I told her that I wasn't having any pain. Although in hindsight, I had a terrible backache all day. I thought it was from the triage bed, but now I'm not sure. The resident told me I was still a 4, which was a relief to hear, and they got me ready to be moved to the postpartum wing for the night. My mom arrived at the hospital right around this time and came back to see me for a bit before heading back to our house to spend the evening with Remy.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div>Around 7pm, I started feeling pretty terrible. I started having really intense abdominal cramps so we called my nurse and told her. Cramps were coming every 7-10 minutes, and were lasting around 60 seconds. I could hardly breathe through them. My nurse gave me some Tylenol and some Zofran through my IV because I felt really nauseous.</div><div><br /></div><div>A new OB resident came in and I told her how I was feeling. I explained that with my first baby, I had all back labor. I'd never felt a contraction in my abdomen, so I didn't know what that felt like. She said that what I was describing sounded just like contractions. She did a (really painful) cervical check and said that I was 4.5cm, 80% effaced, and -1 station. Another nurse poked her head into the room and said, "We're going to move our friend back to triage."</div><div><br /></div><div>As I was wheeled back to triage, I told Alex (the nurse I'd had most of the day over there) that I was back and didn't last long on the postpartum unit. They hooked me back up to the monitors and my contractions seemed to subside. I had a few very, very minor ones that the monitors picked up, but nothing like I was having in my room.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Monday, March 2</b></div><div><br /></div><div>Nurse shift change came and we got a new nurse named Janet. She was incredible. She made sure that I was super comfortable, letting me lay on my side, rolling up blankets to support my back. We just loved her. I was in triage for a while again, and around 12:30am, I had yet another cervical check by the new resident-- again, super painful experience. She said I was still 4.5cm and 80% effaced, but now I was +1 station, so the baby had moved down a bit.</div><div><br /></div><div>The doctors talked about moving me into a delivery room, but then decided that the room I'd been in on the postpartum side was really close to L&D, so they felt okay with me returning to the same room. I finally got to see my OB group's on-call doctor, as she'd been in surgery all day. She said she was glad that nothing had come of my upper right quadrant pain (LOLOL remember that??), and I wasn't preeclamptic, but what had been going on all day was concerning and she felt more comfortable keeping me overnight.</div><div><br /></div><div>So we got moved back to our room on the postpartum side and got a little sleep. We got to see a new doctor from my OB practice's sister group around 9am, and he said he wanted to keep me another day and night. He said that the silent dilation was concerning, but he didn't want any more cervical checks. He didn't seem thrilled that the residents had checked me five times the day before. He said that checks can be irritating for your body and cause things to progress.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO-gXq4BXs6jwNdPtP2BF80qsZESHIYMxxvEH3nUIEp-gShvZzDSFLsiw5AvD-6gvQ44lAEXsjDEdxzQ7JuKHpUj3rWAdkqCrntnNKE3UcoVQGVQHaR1HN8p0RkV-A0BPQubNrBpY41Trc/s1008/IMG_6739.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1008" data-original-width="756" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO-gXq4BXs6jwNdPtP2BF80qsZESHIYMxxvEH3nUIEp-gShvZzDSFLsiw5AvD-6gvQ44lAEXsjDEdxzQ7JuKHpUj3rWAdkqCrntnNKE3UcoVQGVQHaR1HN8p0RkV-A0BPQubNrBpY41Trc/w480-h640/IMG_6739.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>I remember him telling me that he was happy the baby was a girl. He said girls just tend to fight a little bit harder, which I thought was funny because that's what the doctors told me when Remy was born, too.</div><div><br /></div><div>I think he was convinced that something had to happen. My water was going to break or contractions were going to start. This was bizarre.</div><div><br /></div><div>I got my second steroid shot for the baby's lungs around noon and was feeling okay most of the day until around 5pm. I started having really intense back pain. It wasn't contraction-like, but it was very painful. We called my nurse and she sent the new resident in to chat with me. I was crying, and she asked if I was crying from the pain or because I was emotionally overwhelmed. I told her from the pain-- I was sure it was the pain. She told me that it sounded positional, like the baby was maybe putting pressure on my tailbone and making me uncomfortable. She said I could get some Tylenol.</div><div><br /></div><div>An hour later, I still hadn't gotten my Tylenol, and Rog was massaging my back in the spot where it hurt and that seemed to really help. My nurse peaked her head into the room and asked what the resident had said because no orders had come through for me. I told her I was supposed to get some Tylenol but hadn't gotten any yet. She left and came back three minutes later with my Tylenol. She said she'd had to call the resident again. She also brought me some heat packs to hold on back. Between the heat and the massaging, I felt a little better.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Tuesday, March 3</b></div><div><br /></div><div>The night was long with the back pain I was having, but I got to see the same resident again around 6:45am. She said that she thought I'd get to go home that day, and an attending would be in to see me later that morning. We got ready to head down to the breakfast buffet around 7:30, but I crumpled in pain. I was sitting on the floor with my head in a chair and Rog called my nurse. She was able to get me another order for Tylenol and some more heat packs. Rog massaged my back for a bit and I finally felt like I could go down to breakfast.</div><div><br /></div><div>Around 10:30 the new on-call doctor for my OB practice came in to see me. We collectively decided to do one more gentle check before being sent home. I was afraid that I was going to keep progressing and wanted to know for sure before we left. She said I was still 4.5cm, and everything seemed to be the same. I told her that I had an appointment with my doctor the next morning, and she was happy about that.</div><div><br /></div><div>We waited on my discharge papers and got to go home on restrictions. I wasn't allowed to exercise or lift Remy. I had to promise to rest. They told me that if I had a contraction or started leaking fluid to run, not walk, back to the hospital. Rog decided to take off of work for the rest of the week.</div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Saturday, March 22</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div>37 weeks, 6 days! I never dreamed that I'd make it this far.</div><div><br /></div><div>Around 6pm, I told Rog that I wasn't sure I'd felt the baby move that day. I decided to drink some apple juice and go upstairs and sit in the shower and just really focus on her movements. I was fairly certain that I'd just been distracted by Remy and hadn't noticed her moving.</div><div><br /></div><div>I started counting her kicks around 6:40pm. I really massaged and rubbed my belly to try to stimulate her. Rog told me that Remy was asleep at 7:15, so he carried her upstairs. I stayed in the bath until 7:40. A whole hour and no movements. I debated calling the on-call doctor, but I knew they'd want me to come into triage and be checked, and with COVID-19 being so new and scary, I wanted to make sure that the exposure risk was worth it, and I wasn't just catching baby girl during her naptime.</div><div><br /></div><div>I got out of the bath and drank some ice water. I laid on my left side. Slowly, sluggishly, we made it to ten movements in the next hour. But it was so out of character for her. We sat there and talked for a while and watched her move some more, all while debating what I should do. Around 10pm, Remy woke up so Rog went in and laid with her. We continued to text and he looked up some information on kick counts.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8EuDYMjMqDT1BBs4Hr6j81VSfXtfzdl7YLeYruer08Kqzl8d6qOpNkyDFbZfdj1GZAGqJm0TUmwI-jNiSMxRb3S3gK2wC97FgadDX3qzRJpOS4Voere7QVq-U8v7p3Bs3zHoyYyNhKKcz/s1905/IMG_5475+%25281%2529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1905" data-original-width="1299" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8EuDYMjMqDT1BBs4Hr6j81VSfXtfzdl7YLeYruer08Kqzl8d6qOpNkyDFbZfdj1GZAGqJm0TUmwI-jNiSMxRb3S3gK2wC97FgadDX3qzRJpOS4Voere7QVq-U8v7p3Bs3zHoyYyNhKKcz/w436-h640/IMG_5475+%25281%2529.jpg" width="436" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Just before 11pm, I walked to the bathroom and felt and heard the louded "pop." It sounded like when your hip pops-- almost hollow. I gasped and was afraid that it was the baby's back or something. I was afraid that I'd hurt her. I went back to bed and noticed I was leaking some fluid. I told Rog that I was probably going to have to go in. At 11:15, I had my first back contraction.</div><div><br /></div><div>I texted Taryn and asked if she could come be with Remy. I called the on-call nurse with my OB group and was waiting for a call back. I told Taryn to wait until I heard back. My contractions were getting intense, and were never less than two minutes apart. They were lasting between 45 and 65 seconds. At 11:30, before I heard back from my OB, I told Taryn to please come.</div><div><br /></div><div>Things got real. I could hardly get dressed. Rog put our bags in the car. I couldn't put on my shoes, but Rog told me to just get in the car. I texted Taryn to hurry at 11:51, and she arrived about thirty seconds later. We were waiting in the garage with the dogs so that they wouldn't wake up Remy. I waved to her as she walked by and Rog and I left. I had another very intense contraction as we were backing out of the driveway.</div><div><br /></div><div>As we were merging onto the highway, the on-call doctor finally called me back. I couldn't talk to her, so Rog had to. She said that we could go to the ER entrance if we felt like things were moving really quickly, and we hung up.</div><div><br /></div><div>I told Rog that I was afraid I was going to have a baby in the car. Contractions were on top of each other and I wasn't getting a break. I was trying really hard to focus on <i>not</i> pushing. Suddenly I told Rog that I didn't think I could wait any longer, and he told me not to push. I couldn't stop myself anymore-- I had to.</div><div><br /></div><div>One push and her head was out, another half a push and her body was out. So fast. It was terrifying. I was begging her to breathe and rubbing her back. I didn't have a bulb syringe. I didn't have a blanket.</div><div><br /></div><div>She cried. I was so relieved. I don't know why, but I looked at the clock. 12:01. Her birthday was March 23. </div><div><br /></div><div>We arrived at the hospital at 12:06. We pulled into the ER bay and Rog ran inside. I sat in the car with the baby and I just remember she was done crying by then. I had her skin-to-skin trying to keep her warm.</div><div><br /></div><div>Suddenly, there were about 15 people running out of the hospital toward our car. They all looked like they'd been handed the keys to Christmas. <i>They were pumped</i>.</div><div><br /></div><div>They opened my door, told me that they were going to stimulate the baby, and started rubbing her with a blanket. She cried again. </div><div><br /></div><div>"Look at those APGAR scores!" Someone exclaimed.</div><div><br /></div><div>I told them that she'd been crying before we arrived. They asked what time she was born, and I was so glad that I looked. We might not know her birthday otherwise. As they were drying her off and asking questions, I looked up at Rog who was standing at the front of the car. He gave me a thumbs up and I gave one back. We were okay.</div><div><br /></div><div>"I'm Krista, and I'm your nurse," a kind face said. She was young with waist-length curly hair. She clamped the umbilical cord and made the cut and they lifted the baby away from me. Someone held her while I was helped to the stretcher waiting next to the car door.</div><div><br /></div><div>Once I was on the stretcher, they gave me back the baby so that she could be skin-to-skin, and covered us both up. They started to push us inside and Rog had to take the car to be parked. I remember that they wheeled us through the hallways and eventually into an elevator, asking questions the whole way. I told them that my labor was only 45 minutes.</div><div><br /></div><div>"Is baby a boy or a girl?" someone asked.</div><div><br /></div><div>"Well, she's supposed to be a girl," I joked. "I haven't even looked yet."</div><div><br /></div><div>The OB resident asked something else, and I just remember telling him that Rog was begging me not to push at one point. He laughed and responded, "Yeah, it doesn't really work that way."</div><div><br /></div><div>Finally we were upstairs in a delivery room and they helped me into the bed. My nurse helped me get undressed and covered me with a heated blanket. A peds team was working on the baby under a warmer, and told me that I did a great job because her temperature was perfect. I finally met the OB from my group that we had spoken to on the phone on the way to the hospital.</div><div><br /></div><div>Someone asked if I had wanted an epidural for the delivery. I told them that I was seriously considering it this time around and the whole room went, "Awww."</div><div><br /></div><div>Rog found his way to our room while my nurse was starting my IV.</div><div><br /></div><div>Someone from the peds team told me that the baby's face was really bruised because of her quick entrance. From what I could see across the room, I thought she looked like Remy. At some point while he was standing over the warmer, they let Rog trim the umbilical cord. He later called it a "consolation cut." </div><div><br /></div><div>"Does the baby have a name?" Krista asked.</div><div><br /></div><div>"Pretty sure she's going to be Bryn," I responded. "Unless she doesn't look like a Bryn."</div><div><br /></div><div>I looked over to Rog who was still standing over the baby in the warmer. "Does she look like a Bryn?"</div><div><br /></div><div>"She does," he said, giving me a gentle smile.</div><div><br /></div><div>Eventually, Bryn was weighed and measured, and they finally brought her back to me. It was surreal. As if a preterm hospital stay and a global pandemic weren't dramatic enough, this girl decided to be born in the car. And yes, I'm on her birth certificate as the deliverer ;)</div><div><br /></div><div>Oh my sweet Baby Bryn. I'll never ever get over this day. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic4-nGswp3DekanKTbev15lDNySMSx2xaAtx_ZXoGGEgZn8BTPh1iGG8RmphRslCcipZTjBlWQQ69UaOoKiUqsUGClQ_-_k9lfqJBKiCuPeIUZf4fKn4qOQU5tO1jVQfPBV2mSLjCFXYMb/s600/IMG_5540+%25281%2529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="481" data-original-width="600" height="514" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic4-nGswp3DekanKTbev15lDNySMSx2xaAtx_ZXoGGEgZn8BTPh1iGG8RmphRslCcipZTjBlWQQ69UaOoKiUqsUGClQ_-_k9lfqJBKiCuPeIUZf4fKn4qOQU5tO1jVQfPBV2mSLjCFXYMb/w640-h514/IMG_5540+%25281%2529.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAEX6sRX1pOXQUyXUQf6c3LrBB3dsEPfc0Z9EfDnagDtoTI8vdDZWFi8ZZMOmcT4m98y5JDAVW5e1wadkyLx3G3gkLPatao58nxcKT_WKUMXjX8NC5mZEK-HVRchyphenhyphenJv_xijRlBFaFJThM1/s800/IMG_5546.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAEX6sRX1pOXQUyXUQf6c3LrBB3dsEPfc0Z9EfDnagDtoTI8vdDZWFi8ZZMOmcT4m98y5JDAVW5e1wadkyLx3G3gkLPatao58nxcKT_WKUMXjX8NC5mZEK-HVRchyphenhyphenJv_xijRlBFaFJThM1/w480-h640/IMG_5546.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi32kN3cMgjQCVP06yi_b2Ek79AaehqZ3lDoMm-FTtsDbY2lrmbBV2oHE9gXd6VejOk1WsnCxTn3cAdJTlq_afggaks2o_jdVJrZ2vxfXpUBGDr6hkdEJ1emxD5ldRgnqQyux5bYKx7UVwa/s1024/IMG_5529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="768" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi32kN3cMgjQCVP06yi_b2Ek79AaehqZ3lDoMm-FTtsDbY2lrmbBV2oHE9gXd6VejOk1WsnCxTn3cAdJTlq_afggaks2o_jdVJrZ2vxfXpUBGDr6hkdEJ1emxD5ldRgnqQyux5bYKx7UVwa/w480-h640/IMG_5529.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0fXlD9ENTN5nUnFARo_jgWNB5NqGw_L9kiKAzCm5fAdb09A1FMOKJjv_cGNc8tfV4DzsZu5CVCHGjSsKd3s_9TfIqu4R820-cDNKZDZBhf7T5E0Q0W3Coyn_IprRz09xwqu-oYzFjn38K/s1024/IMG_5530.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="768" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0fXlD9ENTN5nUnFARo_jgWNB5NqGw_L9kiKAzCm5fAdb09A1FMOKJjv_cGNc8tfV4DzsZu5CVCHGjSsKd3s_9TfIqu4R820-cDNKZDZBhf7T5E0Q0W3Coyn_IprRz09xwqu-oYzFjn38K/w480-h640/IMG_5530.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWYEW3JGL0RvZXbjlB9QGMywS6FMNmTRaqMIa91vmN_NninsDV8mR9pZCDghGxVqDmmwFdcwYf0T0ujAPG06FaHLa34oaczpfgmwAMvjFVdCaQ3N_H7-v2bnG0U3qaiEJOaJ3yDQFMqfhJ/s640/IMG_5566.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWYEW3JGL0RvZXbjlB9QGMywS6FMNmTRaqMIa91vmN_NninsDV8mR9pZCDghGxVqDmmwFdcwYf0T0ujAPG06FaHLa34oaczpfgmwAMvjFVdCaQ3N_H7-v2bnG0U3qaiEJOaJ3yDQFMqfhJ/w480-h640/IMG_5566.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div></div>Tauriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13669464509696052919noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1600091875116966924.post-56736493487023407852020-04-10T19:28:00.000-06:002020-04-19T14:22:55.624-06:00Remy's Second BirthdayOur sweet Remy Laine turned two at the beginning of March! The weekend before her birthday, I was admitted to the hospital for preterm delivery watch, so we kept her party really laid back and low-key. I think we ended up having 13 people over for lunch, and it was perfect.<br />
<br />
She's loved the movie Coco for a while, so we decided to go with a fiesta theme! Rog manned the kitchen and served up a mean burrito bar for lunch. We also had some fruits and veggies, and for drinks we had Jarritos and Goya sodas. For dessert, my mom and I whipped up some cupcakes the night before, and Rog made limber-- a frozen treat he used to have as a child in Puerto Rico! His mom showed us how to make them a couple of weeks before the party.<br />
<br />
I made the cupcake toppers, balloon tail, and invitations, and my mom helped with the streamer wall.<br />
<br />
Once again, Remy's little outfit was fun to pick out. She wore a little yellow eyelet dress, mini huarache sandals, and a floral bow. We still have to do her second birthday photos, but a newborn and a global pandemic have put those on hold for now.<br />
<br />
The whole day was a lot of fun, and I'm glad that we were able to put a small party together to celebrate our girl. She's an absolute light, and we couldn't love her more. Happy Birthday, sweet baby!<br />

A couple of months ago, we got started on Bryn's nursery. Our third bedroom is teeny tiny, and just perfect for a baby. We painted the walls, ceiling, trim, and doors all in one day with the help of my mom and sisters, and then slowly put the rest of the room together over the next few weeks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I wanted this room to be happy and cozy, and went with just enough pink touches to make it just right for a sweet baby girl. I also wanted to make sure that it tied well with Remy's room next door, so there are some recurring things between the two rooms like the monogram hooks and wire name signs. I hope to share Remy's "big girl" room very soon!</div>

I kind of went with a bolder floral "theme," but kept it pretty casual. It was fun playing with the colors a little bit and adding some special touches.</div>

We live about two hours from family these days, so we decided to rent out our family church's fellowship hall so that everyone could attend without traveling all that way. We picked to have the party start at 2pm, so we served fruits, veggies, and cheese and crackers. For drinks, we had Izzes, water, individual lemonade packets, and a Keurig for hot beverages.<br />

I decorated a couple of the walls near the food table. The first wall had Remy's name spelled with felt flowers attached to it. I was really happy with how that turned out. And of course, I had to display her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/remylainegrows/" target="_blank">monthly photos</a> with her precious <a href="https://cuddleandkind.com/collections/hand-knit-dolls/products/skye-the-mermaid" target="_blank">Cuddle + Kind mermaid</a>, so those were showcased on a floral wall.</div>

Remy's little outfit was a lot of fun to pick out! Her pretty little romper was the same one that she wore for her birthday photos a couple weeks prior; we just put a long sleeve onesie under it for some warmth. She wore her Rifle Paper Co. Keds and a gold hair clip.</div>
