Yesterday (MONDAY – 12.19.16) was a full day full of activities. It started with my 6week postpartum appointment in downtown Birmingham at 9:45am. I started my morning routine at 7:30am thinking I had ample time to feed Rylie, pump, and get both of us ready. Yeah, not so much… I ended up leaving a little […]

rylie’s birth story
I had my 39 week doctors appointment on Monday, November 7th in the morning. Everything looked great and my doctor said I was 2cm dilated, which was great. But she did send me over to ultra-sound to check my fluid level. She said if it was more than a 5, we could continue to let […]
