Being pregnant is…

• What is your favorite part about being pregnant?

Honestly, I like how it makes people more social. It’s a conversation opener. People will randomly come up and ask about gender or how much longer to go.

• How did you come up with this babies name, if ready to share?

I still don’t know gender for baby, but we do have names picked out for either. We try to include biblical/religious meanings into our babies names.

• How do you think your other children will react with your newborn?

So far they are very loving of the “baby in mommy’s tummy” but they can both be rough.

• What is your favorite part about being a mother?

I love the unconditional love children give. Even though they drive me crazy, life would be meaningless without them.

• What is your husbands favorite part of being a dad?”

I love family time and making sure everyone is happy and has what they need.” -Nelson

• You mentioned shooting for a water birth, how different do you think the experience will be from being in the hospital and are you nervous for it?

I am nervous because even though we plan for everything going well, we may still end up in a hospital in case of complications. It will be super different from a hospital: more freedom to labor as you wish, no medications, and less stress involved.
