Update

So. I am 9 weeks and 2 days preg-a-net. I am feeling better now than I have at this point in either of my previous pregnancies. I’m still tired and salivating a lot (no really, excessive spit– one of the lovely side-effects of growing a human that they don’t warn you about) and still kind of nauseous…but I cannot complain. I saw the midwife at the birth center on Wednesday. I also saw my tiny bean and his teeny tiny beating poppy-seed-of-a heart. The midwife was nice, and the birth center was nice, but I left there really dissatisfied with the idea of having my child there. So. Next week we start interviewing home birth midwives. I am actually deliriously excited about the prospect of having Poppy at home.

I am also compiling a list of cds to birth by.
So far I have: Renee and Jeremy
Palestrina(which I enjoyed just before Casal arrived)
Faure
Peter Mayer
And James Taylor. And some Enya.

These are ones I want to get.
Chris Thile
David Nevue
Ella
Brahms by Yo-Yo
and
some unaccompanied cello suites by Bach

Oh. And Bon Iver. I totally went to school with this kid from grades 4 to 12.
Yay music!

The end.
