Q/A of the week:
Do you have any fears about labor? I think the only thing I am slightly stressed about is going into labor and figuring out what to do with Vivienne. We have our nanny and my sister as an option, but you never know when it goes down… so thats a little scary to me. As far as the actual birth, eh, its inevitable and Im hopeful that everything goes smoothly.
Do you tell V that there is a baby in your belly or refer to her by name? We say both. We just try to constantly talk about it with her.
Whats the difference in pregnancies? There aren’t too many differences in these pregnancies to be honest. I feel really great but have been less in tune with my body this go around until she started kicking since I’ve been so busy with Vivienne. My skin has cleared up way earlier than when I was pregnant with Vivienne so I am eternally grateful for that.
Do you have a whats in the hospital bag post and baby essentials? Yes! Both of these have been done already when I was pregnant with Vivienne and my newborn essentials. See hospital post here and newborn essentials here.
What bras do you wear? My chest is on the smaller side so I just wear birdeebee or Calvin Klein sporty bras. Here are a few I like: Storq, Birdeebee, Calvin Klein.
Are you still working full-time? I am. Last day being middle of August.
Are you going to use a doula? I did not use one for Vivienne and do not plan to with this baby.
There were a lot of questions asked that I had already answered in previous Q&As, feel free to circle back to previous posts to see if I had already answered your question.
