Well, it's official. I have been a blogger for a year now. And what a year it's been.
But sadly, the ole blog doesn't care. Did I get flowers? Did I get candy? A card? Anything? Nope. Obviously we are in an unhealthy relationship. But I can't help myself; I keep coming back for more.
And the reason I'm back tonight is because I need the help of all you mom readers out there.
As you know I could have this baby any day now and while I'm prepared for the most part (bags packed, nursery done, etc.) I do have a couple of questions.
1. What did you listen to in the delivery room? Everything I've read has suggested taking music, but I can't think of what would be appropriate. I am NOT a new-agey Enya/Yanni/wind whistling through the trees music lover. In fact, my music tastes lean more towards Madonna, the Counting Crows and Broadway musicals. None of which seem all that soothing or delivery room appropriate. Especially since my fave Broadway musical, Rent, throws the F word around like crazy. Maybe that's not the 1st thing I want Little Ricky hearing.
I am taking my Ipod which has my whole music library on it, but I still don't know what I want to listen to.
So if I want music as a distraction, what should it be? On the other hand will I just find it annoying and want it to SHUT. THE. HELL. UP?!?
So blog friends, suggestions?
2. And now for the big question--FASHION. I have 2 going home outfits packed for me. One super comfy (workout pants, hoody, tennis shoes) and one a little cuter, but still comfy (maxi dress, sandals). The thing is in my head I know I will want to be comfy. After all I will have just squeezed a bowling ball through a straw.
But in my fashion loving heart I keep seeing Sarah Jessica Parker the day she and Matthew Broderick brought their son home from the hospital. Remember that? She was dressed to the nines--fabulous dress, full hair and make-up, HEELS! She was probably terribly uncomfortable and doing the best acting of her life that day as she smiled for the cameras and prayed for sweats, but she looked damn good!
I know I will end up in one of my comfy outfits, but there is a part of me that wants to come sailing out of the hospital dressed to kill. But really? How realistic is this? And what's the point? It's not like I will have paparazzi waiting for me (other than my mom and dad!)
So ladies, what did you wear home from the hospital? Were you comfy? Cute? Both?
Share, but make it snappy because I think this little guy could come sooner rather than later! :)
