Oops.. I Knitted a Cardigan In a Week / 8 Months Pregnant January Vlog
Hello and welcome to another vlog where I "accidentally" knit a cardigan in just a week 🤣 This wasn't meant to be a knit challenge video, but I somehow managed to almost finish a full cardigan in just a week! Watch to see how it turned out and follow along my week.

To your question about what kind of project to have during labor, I say something simple. As labor progresses, contractions can get bad enough that you'll want to set your project down. But, once they're over, you'll be fine to pick it back up again. You don't want an overly complicated pattern you have to try to figure out where you left off at because, by the time you figure it out, you have to put it down again for more contractions. With something simple, you just keep knitting as soon as you pick it up. At least that's my advice based on how my 3 times in labor went. I hope all goes smoothly for you and baby during labor and delivery! It's truly an amazing experience.
I would knit small projects, like little things for your baby 👶
1000% agree!
Agree
Agree!
Absolutely! And if you want to continue working on it once baby is here, I’d say something small so you can work on it with you baby on you/on a nursing pillow. Like a hat, socks or mittens.
For the question about knitting in labor: I’m currently pregnant with my third. Every pregnancy is different. Even for the same parents! With my first I would’ve wanted something simple, for my second it was such an easy labor I could’ve done something complicated and really enjoyed it. For this one, I’m preparing to have something simple and small and I’m also planning on working on your Pride and Pearls cardigan where it’s got more to it that just stockinette. In other words: bring both and see how you feel when you get there!
Sounds like the best advice be prepared either way
Amen to this! Labor is a very dynamic and varying experience for everyone. Your needs and preferences can change drastically throughout. Having options of simple vs complicated is what I also advise. You may also find you go into labor in the middle of the night and you’re too exhausted to work on anything. That’s what happened with both of my babies
The cardigan is amazing! I hope you are going to do a tutorial! Take care ❤
I would go with something simple to knit during labour. You will be stopping and starting, and something that needs more concentration will become frustrating. Good luck. It will be interesting to hear how much knitting you actually get done. I have three children, and I remember preparing my labour nag for my first child. It was that big I looked like I was moving in.
Speaking from experience: People are going to ask never-ending questions about your insidey parts, are you breast feeding, etc. Remember to shut that line of topic down if you feel the need to because it is your body, your privacy. With regards to knitting projects: I would say stick to something simple that requires no thought and if you are distracted and make mistakes, they will be easier to fix. I had a c-section with my kiddo who was also born 5 weeks early, either way you slice it labor is stressful and painful and will DEFINITELY pull your focus away from detail work. There comes a point when your body just takes over and you are along for the ride. That being said...the baby is totally worth it. Congrats mama!
This is soo true!
My advice would be - if you have a baby that is hard to put down (and that is soo natural and normal), try baby carrier. As a knitter, carrying and holding a baby on your hand for longer periods of time can cause something that is called Mothers thumb (some type of tendonosis, aka inflammation).
I used to carry my toddler in my hand when he did not want to walk and I am on a knitting break for over 4 months now..
@@eliskavalaskova8441 such good advice! In the US we have what's called a Bojrn Carrier so the baby is snug against your front and you're hands free. Good luck healing.
oh man, when even strangers ask if you have enuogh milk, like, wtf? I actualy didn`t have enough milk, so these questions were so triggering to me. what`s even the point? It reminds me of when people kept asking me if my family was ok during covid. My mum actually died of covid, but I kept lying that yeah, everybody`s fine, cause I didn`t wanna talk about it. people can be so insensitive
Hello from the UK. I can't talk about labour as I had 4 c-sections, but I do know you'll be so overwhelmed with your son and the beauty of it all that you'll find you hardly pick up the needles for the first month or so. Enjoy every moment ❤
I know what you mean about getting burnt out on all of the learning and research and information overload regarding pregnancy. There comes a time when you just want to turn inward, quiet the noise and appreciate your own experience of your unique pregnancy. It won't come again in this exact way so I hope you enjoy your last few weeks in a very personal way.
(I cannot WAIT so make this fisherman's rib cardigan!)
I’m going to give the most frustrating advice for labor knitting: you won’t know in advance what you need! 😬 It depends on how labor progresses. If it’s a really long labor with lots of downtime it might be good to have something complicated and distracting. But it may start off quicker and more painful and you won’t have the brain capacity to do more than focus on labor. And the funny thing about labor is that sometimes everything you plan for gets thrown out the window once you’re in it because you don’t feel the same! Sometimes things you thought you would love really annoy you or make you mad 😅
Also, unsolicited advice: sleep as much as you can in early labor!
It’s a great idea to keep yourself busy especially in early labor, doing “life as normal” as you progress through labor is one of the most helpful things you can do I think. I was induced with my first and being in the hospital for the entire labor experience and fully focused on JUST that was so hard, but my second was a homebirth and I did not even realize it was in labor until I was in active labor and I gave birth within the next hour lol. Movement is so key in labor progressing, so if you plan to be knitting at home just take frequent breaks and move around as much as possible, especially through contractions it really helps.
I did not even look at my yarn in labor😂 I wish you all the best. Bring yarn to a babyblanket, perhaps you have time to wrap your baby in it before you go home. That would make it such a good story and memorbilia❤
I was a former Maternity nurse for decades (no children of my own though). It's honestly hard to answer your question re: a project to bring with you when you are in labor! What is a big project to me is likely one you could practically do blindfolded! 😂 Seriously, if possible....I would bring one of each as long as it doesn't involve too many supplies! I could relate to both being good at different stages. I'm sorry this answer is likely not very helpful! Otherwise, thinking of you during this lovely time. Don't forget to keep up with drinking your water/fluids!! (The nurse in me had to throw that in!!) 🤭 👍 💕
Hello from Alberta, Canada 🇨🇦 You’re looking amazing at 8 months! It’s true. By 8 months, walking is so challenging. I remember being so surprised by that. You’re so close to the finish line! I’m really excited for you ☺️
Winnipeg MB Canada 🇨🇦 here! I love her videos! Inspires me to keep knitting and crocheting! ❤
@@ozzygirl098i’m also in winnipeg!
Southern Alberta here, so inspirational it got me knitting again after not touching needles for 30 years, now I knit every day!!!! ❤hello Fellow Canadians!!!
Hello from Calgary!
Hi from Ontario. I think easy knitting, that you can sit down when you need.
What to knit on during early labour?! What an adorable question!! Something easy, something very, very easy. You'll see why lol!
Me thinking how absurd it is to knit between labor pains! I say, close your eyes and try to rest. There was no way I could have knit during my two labors.
Hello from Georgia, USA!! Love your channel. Your work is beautiful. You seem to have that burst of energy that can come in the last stages of pregnancy; so happy and energetic. Have a blessed day!!
I am in GA as well been looking for a friend to knit with. I am in Austell GA
The project during labour I made was a crochet rabbit for my newborn, even when my waters broke I still kept on finishing it, I refused to go into labour without a finished rabbit 😅. But the labour took 10hrs and I really quickly forgot about any projects but labour. My second labour was 2hrs so I had no time 😊
Congratulations Kika, I’m so excited for you and your husband. Hope you have a wonderful experience with the birth of your lovely baby.
You look fantastic with your pregnancy! Your designs are beautiful. It is difficult walking starting around 8 months. I remember waddling. But so worth it. I have a son and a daughter and 5 grandchildren. I I love knitting also! I never get tired of it !
Very pretty cardigan! In answer to your question - definitely bring a simple knitting project to the hospital. Because being there can be very irritating like shopping when tired in IKEA lol.
the violet cardi is stunning ... will definitely need to make one!
Answer to your question: I'd keep the project simple because there is likely going to be lots of start-stopping and interruptions. I would also go for something you see progress in quickly to keep you motivated and that would work as a better distraction than something more complex, in my opinion.
I am also 8 months pregnant and I'm planning a simple garter stitch cardigan for the baby so I don't even have to worry about purling and still feel the progress of rows
Having had 4 children, my advice is to carry on as if labour hasn’t started. It’s very exciting when it’s your first but if you just think about the labour, it makes the time drag! My best labour was with my last, mild contractions all day which I ignored and carried on with my planned day, in the evening they actually stopped so I took the opportunity to go to bed and get rest (as opposed to trying to get it going again), and within a couple of hours it was all back on and my baby was born a few hours later. All the best - life is going to change and it will be a challenge but go with the flow 😊😊
Hi! As always, love your videos. The low energy, being irritable, etc. are all normal during pregnancy. For the knitting while going into labor, I’d definitely lean toward simple! Hope all goes well 🤞so exciting!
It might be fun to do a zipper variation on a cardigan like this one? Anyway, it came out cute 😍
You're such an amazing knitter, I think you could go either way with your labor knitting project...more difficult, or easier. Either way, I think you're right and it will be a special project because of the memories associated with it. For me, I was working on a pair of cozy socks to be a Christmas gift for my father... I remember the exact yarn and needles I used and the quality of the sun shining in the window as I knit on them. I had a very long labor (24 hours) that ended in a c-section, much of the experience was a blur, but I remember the knitting! My dad passed away when my son was 4 years old, but he loved those socks and enjoyed wearing them for those years.
As a „Birth-knitting-project“ I would just take two… one easy and one difficult … just in case… I remember that you once asked for a supersoft Mohair: I am soo sensitive to itching that I take just one yarn everytime, it‘s Lana Grossa Setasuri. Doesn’t itch at all. Best for you and the Baby and THANKS for your inspiring work!!💕
I vote for a simple project! You might have patience for something more complicated if you have a slow labor however if things move quickly you may not have much time to pick up your needles. You may also spend a lot of time up walking around and if you have something small and easy to carry and knit while you walk that could be nice too. You never know how your labor will go. Each person is different and each delivery can be very different. All three of my labor and deliveries were different and with different timelines. It will also depend if you are having a natural or medicated birth. All factors to consider. Once that precious bundle of joy is in your arms, you may not even think about your knitting for a while. I’m wishing you all the best for your birth. It has been a pleasure to watch your journey over the last few years and I’m so happy for you!! 🍼👶❤
Kika, choose something simple and not too precious to knit during labour. So you can smash it through the room or wack it against the wall when the pain of labour is really hitting in!
So funny, but true!
😂❤
Wow you really have the pregnant glow on you now, looking good girl! My first labour was over in 3 hours and far too intense to think of knitting. However even with the others no way could I even consider doing any, because the contractions are too painful, and the in-between contractions is just getting over each one and mentally preparing for the next, lol. Sending love and light for you and your baby, maybe it will be an Aquarius like me..coolest star sign of all 😁🥰
Hi Kika! I’ve never had a baby, but would recommend a simple project to bring on your adventure of giving birth! There will probably be so much going on that it’d be nice to zen on something simple.
I finished my baby blanket while I was in the beginning of my labor. Would recommend something simple - that you can pick up or put down and not have to remember too much. All the oxytocin made me pretty loopy and I needed very simple things. Praying for a happy straightforward healthy labor and delivery for you and your baby!
Kika I just loved watching your excitement as you knit the cardigan! The color is beautiful ❤ as for knitting during labor, I would take something easy because your tension may get tighter 😂 and you can squeeze the crap out of your hubbys hand lol everyone is so different during labor and pray you have a safe and speedy delivery. Btw you are absolutely glowing ❤
Simple simple knitting. Say a fuzzy, warm baby blanket. Nothing complicated like cables or lace that you have to concentrate on.
God Kika can I say you are just so adorable! The pink puffer and sweater and glittery skirt, ah! I love all of your content, and as a crocheter, you are what motivates me to take a break and knit❤
You look beautiful! Congratulations on getting to 8 months! Speaking from experience, I don't think it matters whether your labor is particularly complex, you are probably going to be a little distracted... whether you're having contracts, waiting for contractions, being checked over by doctors, having visitors, the waiting is rather distracted waiting. As to a knitting project, I would suggest something that gives you comfort, and doesn't require all your attention. I hope you have a wonderful labor, and get to do your knitting. :) Going into it without a lot of expectations is probably the best way. Happy Baby! Cannot wait to hear you have been safely delivered of a happy and healthy little one.
It's been many many many years since I've been in labor, but my 2 cents is to go with a super SIMPLE project to be at home laboring with before you are able to go to hospital. Also I LOVE so many of your designs and am looking forward to knitting one of your scrumptious cabled sweaters!
I think it's easy to get exhausted with pregnancy! Take good care, and rest when you need it. Starting the pride and pearls cardigan now. Hugs, Kimberly
Your videos are such a joy to watch! Love seeing Helsinki, and the beautiful scenery. Also liked seeing what you cook. I would think to pick something simple, but that will be really meaningful for you to look back on. Just be opened minded during your delivery. Meeting your precious boy is just around the corner. 💕
What a joy for you to share your pregnancy with us! I'm WELL past baby. You're stories bring back such beautiful memories. So much good input offered! Several knitters so wisely commented on the benefits of the baby slings or front carriers to save your hands. Passing that forward to a friend of mine. Bring both! a complicated knitting project and an easy small one. Bring everything you want. It's your first baby. Indulge yourself. Are you having a "Baby Shower" on Ravelry with your patterns? Or a "Baby Shower" KAL to help bridge the time you wont be filming? Please let us know.
You are going to be a wonderful Mother. So happy for you...Can't wait to hear about the birth of your baby ...Easy labor and delivery. 🙂 God bless your family. Hugs from Romania. Liana ❤❤❤
I would take a simple pattern to knit. I had five babies natural childbirth and remember having nurses coming in to check on me often. This could interrupt your progress and make you lose your place on a complicated project. Bless you and you new little family!
After my 2 kids, I recommend something simple that doesn't mind being thrown into its bag when things get serious and is washable. Practice contractions are annoying, but the real ones will take your breath away. During my first Labor and delivery stay, I could barely focus on simple stitches because there was constantly someone wanting to talk to me or a nurse taking my vitals. I couldn't knit at the time, so I was crocheting and almost lost my hook several times. Anything that required counting was so out of the question for me.
Hallo Kika, wieder ein tolles Video von dir, ich freue mich jedes Mal... ich stricke gerade den Darling Cardigan und sitze Stunden an der Blende😅, mühsam streite ich voran...
Ich komme aus Deutschland und dein Buch ist super!!!❤
Lol , I love your question, as a midwife i say keep it simple. Your first labour can be slow and long but if the baby is in a great position it can be quicker. You’ll be able to judge the intensity building up as you go . You won’t be thinking about knitting when you really start labouring…. Good luck 🤞
Keep it simple. You are about to experience a miracle. Love your videos. I hope you publish another knitting book. I love Knit This.
The color of the cardigan you’re knitting is lovely. 😊
Congratulations for your new arrival. As for labor, everyone is different. Estimate your labor similar to your mother's. I thought I would have lots of time during labor but I had contractions on top of contractions. My first baby was 4 hours from start to finish. My 4th baby was 10 minutes, so everyone and every pregnancy is different. Good luck with everything!!
To your question - personally in labour I would go for a simple pattern. Contractions for me the build and get intense but then when they go I was fine just could get back to something but it’s tiring. 😊 good luck with the birth
Simple, always! Nothing that requires counting. Tbh I'd stopped knitting in the last few weeks of pregnancy cos I was just fed up of everything and being uncomfortable 😂 there was alot of napping!
Love your new cardigan! You are phenomenal with all your knitting project and I feel so inspired by your creative mind. As for knitting during labor I would say to keep it simple. All your attention will automatically shift to your labor and contractions as it progresses. Wishing you all the best with the arrival of your little one.
You look absolutely amazing! And I SO appreciate these videos. I really thought you would have cut us off by now(for a while at least).🤣 I'm so excited for you and Juki and this new little one! You got this!❤
Loved seeing another video from you! You’re such an inspiration☺️ As to your knitting project question, I would go for something simple. Don’t count on a long labor, even though this is your first baby! My labor with my first was only two hours, so you never can tell. You’ll want something easy so you can concentrate on your body and your breathing. And once baby is here, you’ll be tired and probably not able to focus much on your project😉
Answering your question : definitely bring something simple because when in labour you need to concentrate on your breathing to minimize the pain during contractions and you can just simply pick up your knitting if you desire … you will probably not knit anyway … and enjoy the moment of the delivery with your husband! It is wonderful!!!
Hi Kika, Going into labour is so different for everyone and even the same person for their first, second or third child. With everything going on, you may not want to knit. But, if you do, maybe something simple might be the best like a baby blanket. It will be great because you always make beautiful things. I wish you the best with your delivery. You are such a lovely person and you have accomplished so much as a knitwear designer in such a short time. You should be incredibly proud of all you have done. You will be a wonderful mother. Enjoy your time with your new little one. Knit when you are up to it. Rest and look after yourself and your baby the rest of the time. Don't put pressure on yourself. Take care, Sharon.
I’m looking forward for this brioche cardigan, which is a dupe for Sezane’s Emile Cardigan ❤
Something simple that can be picked up and put down with ease. Your labour could be long or short, there is just no telling. All I can say is, it is so worth it. When you arrive back home, take all the help offered and get as much sleep as you can.
Hello from Ireland, I am glad to see that ypu are so well, late pregnancy can be exhausting but you sre almost there smd soon you will have your bundle of joy in your arms, I love your csrdigan and the colour that you used is devine, stay well and thank you.
Love the BIG binder for your patterns. You have plenty of room for many new patterns to come! Love your channel and the beautiful scenery.
Love the colour of the cardigan! 😍It's so pretty. I just started my first project (a hat) using Merino/Kid-Silk mohair from Drops. My project was inspired by your many lovely and colourful hats. Good luck with the last few weeks of pregnancy.
I love your videos and your patterns and your book... I'm a huge fan. Wishing you all the best for you and the baby.
Sending love from Germany ❤
As a person who's been through two labours I can say it's a dynamic and somewhat unpredictable process. That's why I would definitely recommend something very simple, stockinette stitch only. It will take your mind off things in it's own meditative kind of way.
The very fact that you wouldn't have to think about it will help your mind to relax by keeping your hands occupied. Once everything intensifies you will want to be able to just drop the project without having to remember where you were exactly
For my Labour I brought a Medium Skill Projekt with me. A simple sweater with stockinet but also with some cables that keeps me entertained at the beginning when the contractions are not that strong. as they get stronger and stronger I reccomend a simple stitch. so maye this two stitches would be a good option. :)
Thank you for another lovely video Kika! 💕
You look so healthy with pink cheeks. Being outside walking is so nice and it is great to see you keeping up with it. I see many have posted already but I agree with many that a simple project might be best. Blessings to you as you move closer to your delivery.
So excited for you and 3000% love the sweater! If/when there is a pattern I will def be knitting it! 💜
Thanks for taking us along on your journey
Yep, agree with others. Keep it simple! Everybody has a different labour experience, but worth taking something with you. Good luck!
I don’t think this is silly at all! Distraction between contractions in early labour is key!!! I’d go with something simple and relaxing, like stockinette stitch. Or maybe brioche, I love the rhythm of that. So calming.
I knit a baby hat with bobbles while I was in labor with my third baby. I didnt finish the hat because my labors are fast, but it was quite nice to have something to focus on in between! I'd bring another project if I have another baby.
It sounds cute.
You are glowing and it lights up my heart to see this! Growing up in Detroit, Michigan, it was very similar to Helsinki in the winter and I have memories of living in (and trying to traverse) snowbanks and snowy climes. Now I live in Tucson, Arizona where you can't shovel sunshine, but this is actually making me miss the pleasures of a snowy day - here and there. I had to stop and comment in the midst of watching because somewhere around 7:15 in your pretty gold skirt, you quipped "Discoball" and I flat-out cracked up. May the joy be with you to delivery and beyond!
You are amazing, wish all the best, and for the whole of your family, and your baby too! ❤❤❤
Hi Kika, So excited for you! Why not take a couple of projects. One simple and one harder. Even when I go to my knitting group for two hours, lots of us bring a couple things to work on.
Thank you for the video! I love watching you knit. Your designs are great, and your color choices are fabulous! So glad to see that your pregnancy is going well!
Groetjes uit Nederland! Thank you so much for all the beautiful patterns and content. I wish you a labour that allows you to knit and a healthy son hoe makes you forget all knitting for a while😊 We will wait with patiance. Enjoy this time.❤
You’re going to be a great mother! I love your knitting works 🫶🏻
Love your new cardigan. Beautiful colour too. Sleeves are amazing! 💜
I have 7 kids, so take it from me LOL, bring something MINDLESS. I wish you all the best!!!❤️🙏🏻🥰
i love watching your videos :) i watch them while I'm doing my own knitting. i knit hats mostly but i just got into knitting sweaters!
love everything you knit and your aesthetic. Gorgeous, love your home decor too. Best wishes for an easy, easy delivery.
I absolutely love that shade of purple yarn 😍 your colour palette is always so cute and inspires me to branch out a bit when it comes to the colour of my knits ❤
Keep the projects simple for the time around the birth and after. I think you are doing fabulous and I do not know where you get the energy. I remember how uncomfortable I was, when expecting my 2 girls .... 18 years ago.
Best wishes for the birth of your child Love the sweater and I always love the content especially seeing around where you live.
I would say have something simple like a stocking stitch sweater with you when you go into labour. I got taken into hospital a week early with my first due to a sudden increase of my blood pressure. I wasn’t allowed to walk around, I was confined to the bed and I was so bored, so having a project with me would have been great. Also, i think the colour of your new cardigan is the same as the one I’ve bought for your Darling Cardigan. I’m currently knitting your Salty Days Sweater atm though and I’m a slower knitter lol. Absolutely loving seeing it grow though! 😊
Kika, I love your squeal of excitement over the fit of your cardigan, simply adorable!❤
Oh my God, this new cardigan is gorgeous too!
Absolutely, I would choose simple. I love the new sweater too!! Best wishes!! ❤
Simple project for sure, relaxing
I’m new to your channel-your knits are gorgeous and I just purchased your book. Can’t wait to see what project to pick first from the book to work on; sending positive energy for your labor! 😊
Yay a new Kutovakika video 🎉❤
It was a great surprise to see her video pop up! 🎉
That violet-lilac cardi is absolutely beautiful 😍 😍😍😍😍😍😍 love your videos!
Love your new sweater ♥️♥️
I love love love the cardigan! Have a save and peacefull labour ❤🎉🎉
I always took my knitting with me to the hospital when I was in labor, and I always made sure it was something simple like a hat for me or the baby, or a very simple sock. You will not have a long time between contractions so you won’t be able to concentrate for long on anything that is complicated. Also, you want a project that is easy to put down quickly and then take up again after a contraction is over. I absolutely love your purple cardigan and I can’t wait to buy the pattern when you are done.
Ah I'm so glad to see you in another video before labor. Was so afraid to not see you again until Mai ❤❤🎉
Oh that will be nice coming home. Your tummy will still be full for a while but with this, you'll have plenty of room - and you'll feel all warm and cozy. Can't wait to hear about your baby. Sending good vibes for a smooth delivery.
Glowing Kika despite the overcast days. Best wishes to you and Juki. I am considering making the Salty Day sweater as it is a beauty. Thank you for your delightful patterns and including the tutorial is a brilliant and helpful addition.
Just discovered your vlog/podcast and I love your energy! I'm coming up on 7 months pregnant and I love seeing how you're putting together your outfits now 😊
I am so inspired by your knits and your style and your enthusiasm. Best wishes for an easy labor and delivery. But, no worries. It is SO worth it!
My, oh my. I’ve followed you since you left Amsterdam. I was distracted by other things, but today here you are about to share a life with a little one. I’m over the moon for you. I watched your blog today as I was knitting a little vest for my granddaughter, she’s 4. Every pregnancy is different. My first I was induced, twice. My second and third took about 5 hrs each and I was barely hanging on with the breathing and resting and breathing. Your body knows what it is supposed to do, trust yourself. If knitting relaxes you then do that. I wish you every good and kind thing.
I wish I could have enough time to knit a cardigan in a week 😂 I live vicariously through you and your videos though. Thanks for all the great content, patterns and book!!
To your question about labor. I’d say keep it simple! I’ve only been knitting 6 years but I brought a simple knit when I was in labor with my second. I was glad because the nurses and doctor came in frequently so if interrupted I didn’t feel lost when I returned to my work Lol labor progresses so specifically to each individual! I was in labor 5-6hrs tops with both of my babies and they progress really quickly all of a sudden. I hope everything goes so well for you!! Anxiously awaiting his arrival ❤
You look so beautiful! Absolutely glowing ❤️
The cardigan is fabulous too! My three labours were all different(and such a long time ago 😘)
I wish you all the best for your labour and birth of your gorgeous little person xx
Oh my goodness, I have binders for my patterns which keeps me very organized. I just bought yarn to do Arctic Light and Pride and Pearls yarn as I am wearing my Salty Days sweater. Here in Massachusetts it is very chilly. I love watching all your videos. ❤
I love your videos. Such beauiful things you create and complete. Love the sweater you finished, so beautiful on you. All such fun in the video. I worked on a blanket during one of my pregnancies so I wouldn't be stressed and it was such a good feeling to work on and not think much. Now that I'm a retired grandmother of 8, the world is open to doing whatever I want. LOL. Take good care. Can't wait until the baby arrives. Sending love,hugs,prayers.
