Birth.. ( I know its early.. haha)

I am sharing this in hopes to ease the fears, confusion, and questions from family and friends.. I am in no way asking for negative or mean responses... Although, I welcome questions and positive or helpful feedback... Thank you!

Here is the awesome birth center I am so lucky to be attending for my care and birth!
Click here →Natural Beginnings Birth and Wellness Center

Here is the Birth Center's link to water birth.. which I will be doing..

Here is a video that explains and shows a water birth.. Although my birth will not be in a hospital, and the birth pool will look different. This video is not gross, I tried to find one that was squeamish friendly.. :)

I will also be looking into hypno-babies.. I have seen 2 births using this method and they went so peacefully and beautifully...

So far thats what I am hoping for..like I said I welcome questions and positive and helpful feedback!
Love, Jessica and Baby Little :)

Brett, We are having a BABY!

The first day of 2013 was a day I will ALWAYS remember, and not because of some awful hangover... (DAD!) I will always remember because that is the day that the stick I pee'd on actually went from blank to positive! I didn't know what I was looking at, at first! Then the shakes set in, in my hands and my voice!! Brett is still making fun of me!

Well, let me back up first... December 29th I woke up from a very vivid dream that I had had a beautiful baby girl! There was a roller coaster, some cousins that I don't see very often, and me topless in a church?? haha
Then another odd dream the next night! Another little girl, a haunted house, and hagred (sp?) from harry potter!
And finally, the 31st I had a dream about a little girl, in trouble, there was an old abandoned house, guns and a burglar!
When I woke up from that third dream, I knew something was weird and decided to test!

Which leads me to another reason I won't forget this day!
I am barely awake, take the test, its blank like normal.. I roll my eyes and think to myself, "why do I even bother?" then i turn around to look in the cabinet above the toilet, when I knock my favorite nail polish into the toilet!!! I say, "what a great start to 2013, putting my hand in toilet water! Geez!" When I turn to wash my hands is when I saw it!!! The positive sign, which I was still unsure about, because I had never seen it in real life before!!

So I wash my hands and brush my hair and teeth, and call out for Brett... Which he mimics now, as a 99 year old ladies shakey voice, because I was so FRIKKIN nervous! As I come out of the bathroom, I say Brett, we are having a baby!!! To which he replies, "really? are you ok? why are you shaking?" and hugs me! I was unsure of his excitement/ nervousness, cause he doesn't show that often.

About 25 minutes later, I get 5 missed calls while I was blow drying my hair.. I get the voicemail and its Brett, FRANTIC.
"ALL THE COWS ARE OUT!!! GET OVER HERE AND HELP ME"
So I am running around getting dressed.. my hair still full blown! haha
Goofball had left the gate open, so aparently he was a little more frazzled than I had realized!! :)
But that was my January 1st!! WOO-HOO! :D
