Reading my previous blog entry about letting myself go really pissed me off. So, today I reversed my ways…. YOU CAN TOO! Make yourself get back to your old-self in the first few weeks. Don’t let your husband forget about the sexy/fun/cute woman that he made the baby with in the first place!

Gross things I now do, thanks to LadyP.
So far, I’m getting the hang of this thing. I’m handling my baby, but I really looked at myself in the mirror today and did not like what I saw. UN-fabulous. I realize that this newborn phase will pass, and that I will return to some version of my old-self, but for now… here’s what…
MEDICAL-MONDAY: Babies and your blood pressure.
Just when I thought I was out-of-the-woods with this pregnancy thing, I find that I’m now dealing with postpartum high blood pressure.

One week’s worth of “Bad-Mom” activity.

Tips from little LadyP!
What day is it? Seriously. I don’t know right now. Yeah, yeah… I’m slacking. No “Medical-Monday,” no “Celebri-Tuesday”… but I had a baby! A girl! And I will use her as an excuse for all things as long as I can… On this blog, we will call her LadyP! LIFE IS GOOD. 🙂 Since my…
MEDICAL-MONDAY: Induction and my losing battle.
I’m getting my ass kicked by a 7lb(ish) bully. As of 5pm today, I now have an appointment to be induced this week. (If you read my last post, you know that I’m dead-set against inducing labor.)
