Nesting Syndrom, or Nustso Syndrom
Ok, so everything in my pregnancy seems to going pretty well. Except for a few minor details (like the only place I get any restful sleep is on the couch because I find it EXTREAMLY comfortable) it's not too much I cant deal with. Until this morning. I cant decide if I am loosing my mind or if this is completly normal. Maybe a mixture of both? Ok, here's my delima: I am on the internet looking for a pregnancy packing list (you know for the trip to the hospital) and then I got the bright idea that I would look for a "zen" labor. Something that is before, during, and after. I think the reason I chose the word "zen" is because when I think zen, I think calm and soothing. This led to furthing thinking (yes I am proof that pregnant women can still think) of wanting a "rainforrest" themed pregnancy and birth. Yes, I think thats the part where I lost my mind. I started remember tequniqes that I was taught about visulization exersizes. So then back to my packing list I decided I want rainforrest music, and I want a rose and baby's breath bouquet to help with my visulization. Is this crazy yet? I even wrote this list down under my "important pregnancy things to remember" list. If you dont think I have totally lost my mind please comment and give some ideas for some ways to relax before, during, and after. You all know I stress alot usually, so some ways to relax now couldnt hurt (I already use sleepytime tea which is good but doesnt put me to sleep) so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. By the way: Dominos update: I quit For good reasons too. They didnt know I was pregnant and they wanted me to work at night delivering pizza's in the "south end" and they where just doing a lot of bad things that I dont want to discuss (I must follow my own rules about no negitive posts) so it was just more beneficial for me and "Star" for to quit. But things are still okay. Anyway, much love to everyone from the Sinks/Cottingham clan. Love FOREVER!!!

Hey! Phil and I found out today that I am 7 weeks and 4 days along and I'm due Oct. 2!! So not too much further behind then you are! Yay!
ReplyDeleteI like the rain forest idea. And you know, if looking at or hearing things like that will help things go smoother, I don't think that's so crazy. I haven't thought really about that kind of stuff. I know I would like music, but I still have to put together a playlist.
ReplyDeleteRoses would be really pretty to look at though. I love flowers. They would probably be a great distraction from some of the pain.
I wish I could give you any ideas, but this is my first pregnancy, so I"m not really sure what will work and what won't. But, I don't think you're crazy, and I hope you keep having fun with growing little Star. :)
