We took Grace yesterday for a weight check, since they were worried about her weight last week.  She has gained 9 ounces in 7 days, so they were happy to see her weight up to 7 pounds, 5 ounces.  Dr. Mark also checked the sacral dimple she has and said he wouldn’t think it was…

On Sunday, April 3rd, I hopped in the shower to get the day started.  We were going to run some errands like stopping at the supermarket, and I wanted to do some stuff around the house to get ready for the baby.  As I was in the shower, I started to run out of breath…
