In Which Pregnancy Makes You a Spectacle | but who's the stranger in my mirror
https://hannajosmith.wordpress.com/2014/08/25/in-which-pregnancy-makes-you-a-spectacle
But who's the stranger in my mirror. With the awkwardness of wisdom in their eyes. In Which Pregnancy Makes You a Spectacle. August 25, 2014. The proverbial cat is out of the bag. Obviously, everyone remotely connected to Jason or I through Facebook land was aware. Most of our neighbors knew (they do see me walking my dog every day). All of our Milwaukee friends knew. All of my co-workers knew. And then this started happening:. And now everyone knows, whether I want them to or not. However, if anyone has...

Johanna | but who's the stranger in my mirror
https://hannajosmith.wordpress.com/author/jasonandjohanna
But who's the stranger in my mirror. With the awkwardness of wisdom in their eyes. We like playing outside, singing songs, and each other. February 4, 2016. I’ll bake some sort of energy bar/muffin thing, I promised myself. I distract her long enough for the really important part: coffee. She plays contentedly for about 6 minutes while I greedily clasp the mug in my hands and drain it down to the last gritty bits at the bottom. At least there’s that. It’s fun to get her dressed. She likes it when I t...

But who's the stranger in my mirror. With the awkwardness of wisdom in their eyes. In which I find out that pregnancy is a big deal. June 2, 2014. 8:11am Posted this on Facebook and tagged my husband:. 8:46am Get a call from said husband. Did you post the photo? Because my inbox is blowing up with Facebook notifications. A huge, flipping deal. So, be forewarned. As always, none of what I ramble about should be taken as gospel. I’m just a fairly introspective girl. How far along are you? Yes, we will July...

A Girl Named Finn – A Birth Story | but who's the stranger in my mirror
https://hannajosmith.wordpress.com/2015/04/21/a-girl-named-finn-a-birth-story
But who's the stranger in my mirror. With the awkwardness of wisdom in their eyes. A Girl Named Finn – A Birth Story. April 21, 2015. That didn’t happen. Apparently, she knew that she was expected on a certain day and she made damn sure to arrive on time. That’s why husbands come in handy. I think it took me about thirty minutes before I finally talked to the midwife in triage. Come on in, she told me. And, well, contractions. We labored in the room for an hour or so. Elissa and Claire were magical&#...

On Hospital Birthing | but who's the stranger in my mirror
https://hannajosmith.wordpress.com/2014/11/15/on-hospital-birthing
But who's the stranger in my mirror. With the awkwardness of wisdom in their eyes. November 15, 2014. I talked to Emmy and got quite a bit of encouragement for an out-of-hospital birth. At that point (and this is still the case) my pregnancy had been very healthy and low-risk she said that I could probably have any type of birth that I wanted to. While I was sad to say goodbye to her, I felt this was a good choice for us. So, that’s why we’re birthing in a hospital. We’re hiring a doula. We have a birth ...

In Which I’m thankful for my sewing machine | but who's the stranger in my mirror
https://hannajosmith.wordpress.com/2014/07/25/in-which-im-thankful-for-my-sewing-machine
But who's the stranger in my mirror. With the awkwardness of wisdom in their eyes. In Which I’m thankful for my sewing machine. July 25, 2014. So, I used to really love Etsy. I would browse for hours drooling over flowey organic cotton tunics and saving images for future sewing endeavors. Pregnancy has changed that. Whilst looking for something simple and comfortable to possibly buy myself as a “treat” for after the birth, I came across the terrifying world of maternity shirts. This is just scary. Yes, l...

On Feeding the Baby | but who's the stranger in my mirror
https://hannajosmith.wordpress.com/2015/01/02/on-feeding-the-baby
But who's the stranger in my mirror. With the awkwardness of wisdom in their eyes. On Feeding the Baby. January 2, 2015. A quick preface: Finavaire Andrea Smith was born on November 26, at 4:11am. She was a petite six pounds, fifteen ounces and measured 19.5 inches. Because, you know, people dig that stuff. I can smell her diaper. I’ll have to take care of that, too. Instead, I’m going to talk about my boobs. Specifically, my nipples. It started in the hospital. Remember that kick-ass natural labor?
