I was grabbing coffee with a friend Tuesday morning. While sitting there my phone rang. I picked up the Tacoma, WA number thinking it's probably a random call. It was the doctor's office. The woman on the line asked if this was Rebekah Burton, nonchalantly I confirmed. The next sentence stunned me. 'We reviewed your glucose … Continue reading Well this sucks…
Testing, testing…
Baby math is weird. Full term is 40 weeks which is 10 months - (40/4 weeks = 10 months) I think to make women feel better they just say 9 months because most don't deliver on their due date. Let's not forget the women that deliver late - oh good Lord, that's over 10 months … Continue reading Testing, testing…
The Spiral
The spiral is real guys. There are some awesome spirals such as cinnamon raisin bread, galaxies, mac & cheese, slinkies, staircases, football throws, and curly fries. There are also some not so awesome spirals such as millipedes, eye/mind games, bugs, and some bacteria. Recently spirals have become more prevalent in my emotions, good and bad. … Continue reading The Spiral

How we told our Friends & Family!
I know a lot of people who don't tell anyone their pregnant until their past the first trimester, and I totally understand why. The beginning stages are always a bit rough because the possibility for miscarriage is great and there are a lot of women that have them. Approximately 15-20% of healthy women miscarry. That … Continue reading How we told our Friends & Family!
