The Drew Jessica Hartell Birth Story

Well, it took a while, but here it is. From start to finish. The story of how Drew Jessica Hartell came into our world. Click on the video link on the right hand side of my BLOG page, just below the photo. It's 16 minutes long and just to warn you folks, it DOES contain a bit of gooeyness...in the form of my placenta. The student Midwife was keen to show Jerry what she had learnt and Jerry was keen to film it. And don't worry, there are no front bottoms in this film. Enjoy!

Sorry for not posting anything just lately. Believe it or not, since I last posted something, Drew has been into a routine. Then out of a routine, then a new routine. Then, she gets niggley, then back to a new routine. It's true. They are SO unpredictable.

She woke up with a snotty nose and sticky eye on Monday this week. I knew I sholud have used that stickytape to get her to sleep! (hee-hee).

I took her to the Doc's, who told me it was a virus and to wipe away the stickiness with cooled boiled water and a cotton bud. It's so scarey doing things like that. I have to do the same with our dog, Barney. Only he doesn't cry!
