Jack's Newborn Photos

I haven't even posted about Jack's birth yet..I will do that next. But here are his newborn photos. I was hoping to capture Jack perfectly as he was, only a couple days old. Shannon Garber is the perfect photographer that cares about the details and captures my kids perfectly. I will treasure these pictures for forever. She also got some of Ivy at this stage in her life...spunky, full of personality, and ALWAYS singing "Let it go", ""And At Last I See The Light".

My Pregnancy with Jack

I didn't document my pregnancy with Jack very well. I got sick like I always do, but morning sickness when I was prego with Jack, lasted all day. With Ivy, it was just typically in the morning. I also was taking a double dose of DiClegis to try to survive which made me exhausted. I got over it at about 14 weeks. My pregnancy with Jack gave me new experiences...my first charley horse! I can see why people hate them. I got a few in the middle of the night. I also had sciatica pain a lot of my pregnancy. Also, I assumed I would have Jack early, just like Ivy (she was 2.5 weeks early)...but at 39 weeks, there was still no sign of him, just a lot of braxton hicks contractions. I decided to be induced after that. More on that later. I've gotta post my birth story (that I wrote in the hospital) before I forget it.
