cnasmom - April 8

gabby you are so not weird, i think the same thing! lol. but shes a low kicker a lot too, i think cuz she is still head up. but i get those nice kicks and punches up high sometimes too. she really kicks low when i am bent over, lol. everyone says i should get to the hospital 3 wks before my due date, cuz my daughter came so fast, lol. My water broke, with no contractions before hand, we get in the car 5 min later, the contractions start at 5 min apart and by the time we get to my room an hour later they are only a min. apart and i am 7 cm dilated!!!! i was in excutiating pain!!!! bring on the drugs!!!! lol but she was born about 4 hours after my water broke, she came very quick.

GABBY!!!!! That is hilarious!! I was thinking about asking you guys that same thing - but htought aaaahhh they might think I have completeley lost the plot!! But I always think that with #2. Sometimes I would rather be constipated then push too hard for fear of breaking my water or actually pushing her out!! Thankgod for you guys!! I feel so much better all the time knowing that I am not the only one with these crazy demented thoughts!! LOL!! :o) Usually I feel her kicks and movements fairly lower, but get the ocasional ones up higher or towards the sides. But mostly lower.Cnas- that is a fast coming baby! My SIL was in labour for 39 hours before they finally decided to do a C-section on her. That borders cruelty and inhuman no??

Hey ekay, where'd you post your pic? I'd love to take a peek. And can someone answer my question about myspace? Do you have to have a login to access user pages? I'm very computer savvy, but I know nothing about myspace! SB200, holy cow! 39 hours! I thought they wouldn't let you got past 24 hrs w/o inducing. That is cruel & unusual! And I am SOOOOO jealous of those of you with big homes and acreage! I live in Burbank right now (about 10 min from LA), but I just bought a house about an hour outside of LA (15 min from Disneyland). It's a 2200 sq ft, 3bd 2ba on .28 acre, and it was $600K! And not only that, but it was a short sale, so the bank actually took a $176K loss selling it to us at that price! All in all, the house is really nice, but we had to replace this c___ppy old linoleum (that was actually duct-taped together in places) in the kitchen & bathrooms, and the kitchen counters are broken in 3 places, so we have to replace those, as well... along with all the fencing that's falling apart, etc. etc... It's totally average out here for a 2 or 3 bdrm fixer-upper to cost $600. I'd move too, but I can't really do my job anywhere else.

Linstwin - I am pretty sure you can check out someones my space account as long as tehy have it set to a public profile. I just set one up so I am realy not sure either! I know - 39 hours is beyond humane. She lives in Hawaii and no matter how much she begged they refused to send her in. They just kept sayin that my newphew was just about there. But he was nowhere near!! Poor thing. I think she was more sore afterwards from such a long labour than she was from the actual c-section. I can't even grasp the thought of paying that much for a home. The farm I grew up on has 7200Acres with a full service horse and cattle barn, two rivers on it, two houses on it and a bunch of outbuildings and it would only sell for about 400k out here. Wild!! I guess that is what we get for living out here in the middle of the prairies!!

i know that was a very fast labor, with my first he was slow, but my water broke 3 wks early! so they ended up putting me on pitocin to speed things up, i was in labor for about 14 hours with my first. but my second was FAST. so im scared to be one of those women giving birth in her car, lol. i just wish i had my own freaking house, lol. i live in a trailor park, a nice one, but none the less a trailor park in a dinky little town in the middle of nowhere, i drive 45 min to school 2 times a week. ugh.

Mommam - how did your ultrasound go today??

 

mommaminchey - April 9

Hey girls. Everything went well yesterday. theystill couldn't see all 4 chambers of his heart so I go back may 7th to see him again which I don't mind. Everything looks good she said. And next time I go I have to drink the orange drink for my g/d test. Sorry I ahven't been on much this week. We have an auditor here and I am sharing a office with him.

Mommam, I thought about and prayed for you yesterday. I am glad that everything is still okay. :-) I used to get the low "hoo-haa" kicks, but she must have moved around because yesterday and today it's up high, like right behind my belly b___ton. I think I am getting my belly back too. Linstwin my myspace is dot com /barjw. It isn't hard just to start an account to be able to view pics- just the usual pa__sword set up etc. I am more scared than you know to give birth in a car. I don't think ya'll understand when I say if my water breaks I am screwed! With my first, my water broke on it's own and I had him 7 hours later, 2nd they broke my water because I was walking around at a 5 with no contractions and I had her 2 hours later and with my 3rd she stripped my membranes (I was a 4 by that time and it was my due date) and I started contracting a few hours later at my fav Chinese restaurant. They kept wanting to break my water, but I knew from the last one all that meant is HARD labor. My labor stalled at 7 cm, so I let them break it and literally within the hour my youngest was born. God, the rememberance of that pain makes me cringe!! So total labor after the breaking of water for me was 7 hours, 2 hours and 1 hour. Yikes. I am scared to push during a BM too! Is anyone restless at nighttime? My legs have been getting the jitters.

 

cnasmom - April 9

yes, i can't get my legs comfy at all. its awful. i am constantly tossing and turning. I am already having a bad day too. i couldn't sleep well, and i am exhausted. I went to the grocery and spent a whole $50 and we don't have that. foundout my husband wrote a check I didn't know about so it cost us an extra $30 for insufficient funds, and we have others out too. our rent was due the first and we still don't have it. I could just cry, oh wait i have been, lol. *sigh*

 

mommaminchey - April 9

Aww thank you Ekay. I know I was scared to death too. So I"m confuesed. Why does it hurt so muhc if they break your water? Did you have epi? I am starting to not sleepy well which is hard for me since i usually fall right to sleep and sleep all through the night ( i would make a great baby) but lately I get uncomfortable and wake up alot. And at night my right leg goes to sleep and feels weird....

when does the 3rd tri start? I'll be 24 weeks on sunday.

 

softbreeze200 - April 9

Hye Gabby! How good was Jason last night??!! That is one of my all time favorite songs he sang by IZ. When I lived in hawaii with my brother for a while years ago I got to meet IZ at a benifit concert and fell in love with his music. They were all so good last night!! I wish I could sing like that! Or at leats sweatpea isn't as off key as both me and her daddy!! lol!! I think the third tri starts at 27 or 28 weeks. I think we have one more month to go!!

 

mommaminchey - April 9
