The baking process goes on!
The baby is now the size of an average... onion? Ah, alrighty then!
Veronica and I are currently working on putting together the awesome new crib that Veronica's mother got for us, but unfortunately a tiny little piece was missing and we're trying to get J.C. Penney to replace the part. Still, it's mostly whole at the moment and I promise that I will make sure to get some pictures up as soon as it's done being put together.
We went in for another check-up, just a brief one where we got to hear the baby's heart again (all is fine!) and Veronica got the quick look-over (she's doing fine), and have also taken some steps towards taking some birthing classes. After looking around for some options in the area, we decided to check out one particular lady who does personal classes locally and who also acts as a doula if we decide to go there to help with Veronica's pain management.
The two of us met with the woman at a local bookstore and it went really well; she's got a good deal of experience, confidence in her ability without coming off as overly pushy, and wasn't too, ah, "crunchy." I understand it may not be entirely fair, but when people start getting too strong into the whole anti-medical-establishment "my way is more natural and better" thing I start to get a bit wary (for perhaps the same reason I tend to avoid martial arts schools that build themselves around the philosophical/chi energy stuff).
So, y'know, that's good!
Promise more updating as more happens, and the next big ultrasound (very exciting!) is in early May!
