2 🌟 Super Ideas of the Week

 1 - Arts & Crafts Made Simple – Creative Bonding! 🎨✂️

Try easy, low-energy crafts like sticker collages, finger painting in ziplock bags, or making cards for family members. Let your child do most of the hands-on work while you guide them with ideas and encouragement.

💡 Super Tip: Use pre-cut materials or sticker books for less prep and mess!

2 - Backyard or Window Bird Watching – Nature Without Leaving Home! 🐦🌿

Set up a bird feeder outside a window or on a balcony and watch birds visit together. Use a simple bird guide (or an app) to identify different species and make it a fun learning experience.

💡 Super Tip: If you can’t set up a feeder, try watching live bird cams online!

But what was this pain I kept feeling?…(Continued from issue 24)

My Mom, aka soon-to-be Grandma for the first time, stayed with me and my husband since I came home from the hospital.

She has been with me through all the tests and uncertainties my entire life!

When she heard about all the issues I had been dealing with during this time, she chose to be with me through this time, too, but…

Remember I am the oldest of 4, my mom still had 2 teenage boys in high school living at home and the other working in NY.

Yes, my dad is still alive, but he was working during the day and sleeping at night. So that gave 2 teenage boys a LOT of “freedom”.

When my mom told me her concerns about my brothers being alone for so many hours before my dad would get home, I insisted that she go home and I could care for myself.

Lucky me, my husband had a job he could do remotely.

My husband was working from home long before COVID came into being, he had a pregnant, disabled wife who couldn’t be left home alone. His boss accepted this idea as an easy solution.

So where was I in the list? Oh yeah…

Keep stress levels low because I am pregnant but…

First, I had the morning sickness, which was stressful.

Second, there was all the talk of the world coming to an end due to Y2K.

Third, I was bleeding vaginally.

Fourth, MS made me a paraplegic.

Fifth, my heart rate went above 200 beats per minute.

Sixth, my husband had to be called back to the hospital because the doctors wanted to STOP MY HEART!!!!!

Seventh, my baby could die so we could save my life!

Eighth, why am I still in the hospital?

Ninth, complications for the baby just to do a test?

Tenth, waiting for the results from that radioactive isotope test!

Eleventh, what’s in the bag?

Twelfth, Oranges and needles?

Thirteenth, Do I have diabetes too?

Fourteenth, MS confirmed?

Fifteen, MS confirmed!!! How?

Sixteen, Call Mom to help?

Seventeen, How’s the baby doing?

Eighteen, What’s this pain I keep feeling?

Baby’s due date was July 3, 2000. I was hospitalized back in April for a few weeks. My mom stayed with us for a few weeks upon my return from the hospital. Now it was time to take Lamaze Classes!

I had signed us up for these classes for what seemed like forever ago. Good thing the teacher sent a reminder letter in the mail (emails had not become popular as a mode of communication yet). Even better, I found this letter in the pile of mail that had accumulated while I was in the hospital.

Our classes were scheduled for weekly sessions leading up to the final month of pregnancy. My husband and I went back to the hospital we were so familiar with because of all we had been going through leading up to now. This time, though, was a happy reason to learn about using Lamaze for childbirth.

Ah Lamaze! Learn how to breathe through the pain of childbirth.

The first class talked about 7 topics: Introduction to Lamaze, Lamaze Healthy Birth Practices, Understanding Labor and Birth, Breathing Techniques, Relaxation Techniques, Informed Decision-Making, and Role of the Support Team.

I think my husband liked the breathing part the most.

We were told to have a suitcase ready to take to the hospital because when that baby starts coming, there is no time to pack.

We were also told about Braxton Hicks. Braxton Hicks contractions are sporadic contractions and relaxation of the uterine muscle. Sometimes, they are referred to as “false labor” pains.

As soon as I was told to get on the floor to “practice”, I started feeling this pain! I went to the instructor and asked about it.

She said “Congrats, you have Braxton Hicks. Don’t worry about it.”

Don’t worry about it! OK, sure, but why does it hurt so much?

Back to that in the next newsletter…
