Buying Maternity & Nursing Clothes in Deutschland

July 17, 2007

At the beginning of this month, I got a reader email question wondering where to buy maternity clothes: I was wondering where you bought maternity clothes in Germany. Thus far I have only been able to find clothes at H&M and I was wondering if any of the other chains carried maternity clothes (or what [...]

6 days and counting

July 17, 2007

My doc announced this morning that “nothing is going on down there.” Serious bummer. She also estimates Oliver at about 3.5 kg, or 7.7 lbs. So far this is not too big in my eyes. My mom is a tiny Asian lady and I was naturally born at 8 lbs 6 oz (3.8 kg), so [...]

Geburtsvorbereitung, Teil 6

July 11, 2007

On Monday night, we had our sixth and final birth preparation class at the hospital. I really, really wanted to skip the class. I was tired and I’d decided that it wasn’t really giving me anything, but I felt bad since it’s covered by insurance and what if this was the one time that the [...]

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy

June 30, 2007

I really don’t have very much interesting to say today, but Rainer tells me that it’s been two days with no new blog entries and that’s just no good! The nesting thing seems to have been a false alarm. I spent the last few days sleeping (post-cleaning exhaustion, I think) and not having bad contractions [...]

Rockin’ Neighborhood

June 28, 2007

I recently ran into my neighbors from across the way and inquired if they might look after Charlie when we have to go to the hospital. They were quite happy to oblige, gave me their number and I gave them a housekey. The wife, who’s also a nurse, expressed concern that I was still walking [...]
