Baby's love music
c.s.lewis by Brooke Fraser lyrics
If I find in myself desires nothing in this world can satisfy,
I can only conclude that I was not made for here
If the flesh that I fight is at best only light and momentary,
Then of course I'll feel nude when to where I'm destined I'm compared
[Chorus]
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the morning
I will sigh and with all creation groan as I wait for hope to come for me
Am I lost or just found? on the straight or on the roundabout of the wrong way?
Is this a soul that stirs in me, is it breaking free, wanting to come alive?
Cos my comfort would prefer for me to be numb
An avoid the impending birth of who I was born to become
[Chorus]
For we, we are not long here
Our time is but a breath, so we better breathe it
And I, I was made to live, I was made to love, I was made to know you
Hope is coming for me
Hope, he's coming
King by lauren aquilina lyrics
You're alone
You're on your own
So what, have you gone blind
Have you forgotten what you have and what is yours?
Glass half empty, glass half full
Well either way you won't be going thirsty
Count your blessings not your flaws.
You've got it all
You lost your mind in the sound
There's so much more, you can reclaim your crown
You're in control
Rid of the monsters inside your head
Put all your faults to bed
You can be King again.
You don't get what all this is about
You're too wrapped up in your self-doubt
You've got that young blood, set it free.
You've got it all
You lost your mind in the sound
There's so much more, you can reclaim your crown
You're in control
Rid of the monsters inside your head
Put all your faults to bed
You can be King.
There's method in my madness
There's no logic in your sadness
You don't gain a single thing from misery
Take it from me.
You've got it all
You lost your mind in the sound
There's so much more, you can reclaim your crown
You're in control
Rid of the monsters inside your head
Put all your faults to bed
You can be King.
You've got it all
You lost your mind in the sound
There's so much more, you can reclaim your crown
You're in control
Rid of the monsters inside your head
Put all your faults to bed
You can be King again.

New life begins
As she was born, falling forth from the womb, all was silent time just stopped. Pain was an empty term, all i felt was her. She was mine and i was hers. After all i have experienced in the past I wouldn't give that moment up for the world. it was life changing. It was like a piece of my soul just broke off and became a part of a more important a more living being a person who needed life more than me.
So since becoming a Mommy, I've been peed on and spit up on and wow smiled at and my eardrums are broke because wow she has lungs and she knows how to use them.
But she is my "Darling", my "morning glory", my miracle, my " hey sweets", my adorable lil pooins. I love her.
New feature she shoots poo when she sneezes and makes the duck lips when shes peeing and oh when she smiles she sticks her tongue out and a dimple appears on her right cheek so adorabubbles.

Mirabeth Rayne was born
tip:
they mailed her SS but her birth certificate I had to pay $25 for at the health department

Hospital Stay checklist
Mommy:
1 Set of Comfy Breastfeeding Pjs. While the hospital gowns will do just fine for the delivery part, it is definitely nice to change into comfortable pajamas when you get a chance to shower.
Personal Toiletries. Toothbrush, deodorant, lotion, hair products, comb/brush… Although most hospitals will have the basics available upon request, using my own products and scents helped me feel a little more like myself.
Going Home Outfit. Something comfy for the car-ride but something nice for those who might visit that day. I just wanted to feel comfortable. My entire wardrobe for the next 4 weeks consisted basically of cute n comfy.
The hospital will provide you with some “grippy” socks to wear, plus mesh underwear, painspray and pads These will be your favorite things afterbirth.
Breastfeeding:
Breastfeeding Pillow. Because breastfeeding is not as easy as it looks in the movies. While babies are born with a natural sucking reflex and can even squirm all the way to the mother’s breast if left on the mother’s chest, there is much learning to be done for both mom and baby when it comes to breastfeeding. Finding the right position is not always easy and having a breastfeeding pillow to help provide support can make a big difference. I know it certainly did for me.
I had nipple cream : recent studies show that nipple cream may not be as helpful as we thought after all. The current suggestion seems to be expressing colostrum/breast milk, rubbing it on the nipples, and letting it air dry to help with the dryness and soreness. You can always ask the lactation consultant at your hospital for the more information on this subject.
you can also ask if they have a breast pump available for use if u think you would do better bottle feeding.
Baby:
Cute Going Home Outfit. Because you want to take some nice pictures to remember the occasion.
Car seat. Because even if you are walking home, they won’t let you leave the hospital without it.
blanket for the car ride home if its winter
Companion during stay wether it be grandma friend or daddy:
A Change of Clothes. Most of the time they can use the shower in the room if they would like. So, If they are planning to stay in the hospital the entire time, I suggest bringing at least one change of clothes.
Pajamas. Will come in handy if they plan to sleep in the hospital.
Toiletries. Same reason as mommy above.
Additional Items:
Phones and phone chargers. Because you will probably be making lots of phone calls to your family and friends and getting lots of supportive messages on your social media pages
(if you do not have a phone normally the room you stay in for recovery has its own line)
Camera (and memory card, and charger). To record all the details of the joyous occasion.
Snacks. Because who knows how long your are going to be in labor. Unless you can get your friends and family to bring some in, it is always nice to have something for your companion to much on.
Optional Items:
SMALL Comfy Blanket. Because sometimes hospitals rooms can get quite cold and if warm blankets aren’t available having a small fleece might help you get through.
Favorite Playlist. If you think listening to a particular song will make you feel happier, more relaxed, and help you cope better with the whole delivery process, take it with you. Most hospitals nowadays also have free WiFi available to their patients.
Extra underwear for mommy, that you dont mind throwing away after use. I know this sounds weird but hear me out. The moment you are admitted into labor and delivery they will have you remove your undergarmets, and once the baby is born, the hospital will provide you with a few pairs of disposable mesh underwear that will be big enough to fit the large pads you will need right after the delivery. Also, they are likely to get soiled fast and you don’t want to be collecting soiled underwear to take home to wash.
Diapers and wipes. The hospital will usually provide you with appropriately sized diapers and wipes for your newborn for the duration of your stay.
Extra Clothes For Baby. Most hospitals will provide shirts, hats, and blankets for your newborn for your stay. Unless you want to take pictures at the hospital with special outfits, you can just use the hospital outfits so you don’t end up going home with a pile of laundry.
