Beginning of birth Plan

People Allowed in Room During Delivery:
Aaron Carr ( Husband)
Denise Coleburn (Mother)
Amanda Stewart (Sister)
Jenny Erickson (Best Friend)
No exceptions!

Pre Labor/Labor
No IV! Being able to move around, use the rocking chair, birthing ball, jetted tub or shower, and walk during labor if safe.
Setting the environment with low lights, music. No TV watching durning hard labor, doors to hallways closed if in unable to be mobile.

Induction
Refer to doctor, natural ways first stripping membrane or oral drugs okay. Pitocin last resort.

Birth Plan
Would prefer a natural delivery with no IV/drug given. Depending on pain and tolerance not opposed to epidural or pain management if I feel necessary.

Would like a blank over legs durning delivery and push do not want to see anything.

Once baby is born would like doctor to show us baby, cut umbilical and have baby cleaned up, shots given, babies health checked and okayed before giving us baby.
After baby is cleaned up and I am cleaned up we would like the like the new grandparents and aunts/ uncles of there new grandson / nephew to be the first to see and have some time alone with baby. After that no restriction but family first.

15 weeks 6 days-

Dear Sweet Baby Carr,

All I can say is thank you for already preparing me for the lack of sleep I am going to get the first months you are here!:) From wiggling to pushing on my bladder for me to wake up and pee 3 times a night. I say this in all honesty... I have been nervous for the lack of sleep to come because I know my body just does not react well to this and I always seem to crash in an unwake-able sleep! But, God is good in having you train me early to live a different life style and learn how to live life with minimal sleep. By the time you get here I will be a pro! I already love you with all my heart. I look forward to the long nights and time you and I and Daddy get to spend together! My goal will be to do the best I can and love you unconditionally! You are already our world!
Remember God is good and our Savior, he has brought you into Dad and I's life for reason. I know there will be hard times in your life when you feel like you have no one and no where to turn to not even your parents- I urge you to remember this is not true, for their is one Father that you can always lay it all out for and he will provide you with comfort and guidance! He has for me many times and even though I screw up time and time again he I's always there! I pray this for you, that you will honor your father and mother. Most importantly, you will honor and love your Father in heaven. I love you so very much! Baby Carr we will meet you soon:) We can't wait!

4 weeks and 2 days along...possibly..

Well it is possible that I am 4 weeks 2 days along or 5 weeks 2 days along we won't know for sure until I get my ultrasound done. I get more and more hunger as the days go on but yet I am still dropping weight- besides a little cramping here and there those are the only really pregnancy signs I have had so far. And of course sore boobs:)

On another note I found the car seat I wanted on craigslist and my sister is going to be so kind to pick it up for me in Issaquah! (thank you Amanda!!) It is only one year old and she bought it last year from babiesrus! It even comes with the box, manual, and receipt! It is the chicco key fit 30 in the color extreme! So excited!!!

My Favorite Piece of Artwork!!!

On Thursday night I came home totally beat and exhausted! Lately my least favorite thing to do is walk to the mailbox to retrieve a plethora of bills (you all know how that is!). As I am walking back from the mailbox shuffling through the mail to my surprise there where no bills and a letter from my nephew Owen :) ! As I open it there is a note on the back that says " One of Owen's one of kind pieces of artwork!" I open the artwork and could not wipe the smile off my face! It was perfect! I walked into the kitchen and hung it on the fridge. As I looked at it my smile got bigger and bigger and knew that the fridge just did not give this any justice! I knew I had to frame it and hang it on my bedroom wall! Now when I wake up and get ready for work as I walk out my bedroom I get to see one of my most prized possessions , artwork my 3 year old nephew, made just for me. What a great way to start out the day! It is also a great reminder of how blessed I am to have such an amazing family who I love and cherish more than anything in this world! All I can say is thank you Owen for making your Auntie's day!!! I love you!!!
