Nolan Eason

At 1:03AM on Friday, March 30, 2012 my first child was born - a son. We named him Nolan Eason. 21" long, 5lb 3oz. He was beautiful and perfect in every way, except that he was stillborn. As we searched for answers to his untimely death, we also searched for comfort. This blog was created as a way of working through my sorrow by trying to find something beautiful in the world each day. Hopefully, along the way it will help others to heal as well.

Sickly Sunday

I was still feeling sick today so I didn't do much but sit on the couch, knit and eat cough drops. My Dad came over in the afternoon to help me give JoJo a bath since I'm not able to wash her with her medicated shampoo. All I ate all day was some noodle soup, even though Dad bought over some pork chops for me that he made for me. I could have gone without even eating the soup as I had absolutely no appetite, but I forced myself to have something to try to make sure the baby got some kind of nutrition. I'm fortunate I only have a cold and not the flu, but being sick while pregnant really is the pits.  The weather was so nice today it was really unfortunate that I didn't feel like doing much. I did finally head out back for a bit with JoJo so she could enjoy the nice weather. She rarely will stay outside long if none of her "people" are outside with her. She is definitely a pack animal and likes to be with the rest of her "pack." While I was out there I did manage to blow some more leaves into piles. Maybe one day soon we will finally get all the leaves blown and bagged. I was somewhat productive today as I did knit another hat for the baby and worked on knitting the baby cocoon some more.
