He’s finally here!…Our sweet baby, Joaquin, was born on Dec 8 at 9:00 pm. In just one week I’ve lived the worst and best moments of my life. There are so many stories I wanted to share, like what it felt like to be among the 25% of pregnant women who deliver via a c-section. [...]
For those who’ve never experienced pregnancy, this may sound weird and may look pretty freaky, but I’m actually going to miss it… Click on the image, and press the play button (the movie won’t start playing automatically) Good Lord!
Hello bolliti, Lots have happened since my last update… Over the last two times we’ve been to the doctor, she’s confirmed that you have dropped really low and your head is pressing down on my cervix like such a tight cork, she’s having a hard time assessing how much I have dilated.

Bolliti Panfriti, Next Sunday it will have been 37 weeks, and you should be fully baked. It’s time to start dropping bebé… I only need to do one last trip to the baby store to be completely ready for your arrival. Everything else is waiting for you. This week, people’s comments about the hugeness, grossness, [...]
