Anticipation

I came across Hazel’s birth video yesterday and now I am really excited (and a little anxious) about having this baby in 3.5 weeks. For the first time I heard the doctor and nurse discuss in hushed tones about how tight the knot was in her cord. I missed that in all the excitement of childbirth. I am so glad I was induced a week early. ย Of course now I worry every time Jessie Pearl flips around, but tell myself what are the chances? ย Pretty rare to manage a true knot.
PS- this video is G rated–I edited out the graphic parts:)

  2. Ok, so I can NEVER watch a birth video without crying! ๐Ÿ˜‰ Thanks for sharing! Now I’m that much more excited for September, when we get to meet our newest blessing! Prayers for everything to go smoothly in your next few weeks of anticipation. Can’t wait to see pictures of Jessie Pearl! (In that amazing layette you’ve created for her!) ๐Ÿ˜‰

  5. Awwww….what a sweet video! I’ve never had any of my births videotaped….but that is so neat! Those last few weeks fly by so quickly!

  6. Aw! So sweet. Exciting to think our babies will be born in just a few weeks. Hope the tail-end of your pregnancy goes perfectly!!

  7. Can’t wait to see this new precious baby!

  8. My firstborn had a true knot in his cord! He was breech the whole time and I had to have a version to flip him. I always thought that was probably when it happened. Everyone had to come and see it after he was born. Yes, don’t mind me here, getting stitched up, how many people have to come in to see it anyway?

  9. love baby stories!!

  10. Such a fun video, she was (and IS) such a cutie! Can’t wait to see pictures of Jessie Pearl. Praying for an easy delivery and no knots in the cord. ๐Ÿ™‚

  11. Jen W..Hazel went breech a couple of weeks before birth so that’s probably when it happened. They say the more kids you have the more room they have to flip around–true for me. My last few flip around until the very end. Scary:)

  12. PS- I re-edited video so background music isn’t so loud. New to the video editing!
