STEPH~ He has been savinghis leave days for this since last year. haha That sucks though! The facility he works for are really cool though. JL the main boss guy there said that because we didnt know what day she would be here, he would start it when she was born. I cant believe they only gave him 2 days off! Did he barely get out of basic or grad tech school? Maybe that is why? I dunno. What BS though. SARAH~ poor you! You have been through so much this entire pregnancy and now in the beginning of motherhood. Are your b___sts feeling better though at least after he drained them? I have heard the baby blues come and go throughout the first month. That and the first month is the hardest because you are still trying to get to know eachother. Just keep in mind that you are doing an excellent job with Kerrick. You did a great job even before he was here. I hope you start feelin better soon though an dI promise I will post her pics as soon as I get home which will be hopefully Wendsay or Thursday of this coming week. RIFQAH~ Lucky you!! haha I am thinking that she will be one of those babies that sleep sporatically during the day and not at all at night. Maybe Ill get lucky but as much as she is awake now I can only imagine. I cant believe your hubby only got 2 days too! What does he do? Dang I cant believe employers are so insensitive!! I know that here in the US, although it doesnt apply to military yet, alot of employers are now offering paternal leave as well as maternal which is nice. I am glad though that Jehann decided the weekend was a good time. haha Ok guys I am off and on doing some last min cleaning and stuff. Il be back later.

Well, the weekend is pretty much over, and wow do I ever feel awful! Baby must be getting awfully close to just falling out, it feels so low I can't sit properly anymore! And I'm getting more contractions, although there's absolutely no rhyme or reason to them. Yet. I'm so scared I'm not going to be paying enough attention to them and I won't get to the hospital in time. Ridiculous to worry about, as the hospital is approx. 8 minutes away, when you're stuck in traffic behind a really slow driver! lol.
Anyways, just wanted to say JENN--good luck tomorrow! I'm soooo jealous! (Although, tomorrow IS my official due date, so you just never know.) I hope everything goes smoothly, and can't wait to hear how things went!

Im guessing Jennifer is holding her bunch of love right now, while i sit here fat as a blimp still waiting!!! Hope it all went smoothly for her. My doc thought i would go early but im due in 2 days and nothing so far!!! Shala maybe its just u and me left? Im booked in to be induced on march 10 which will make me 10 days over but i cant bear the thought of being that far over again (i was 10 days over with my first baby) and those last 10 days seemed like 10 YEARS!!!
About pa__sing those clots - i rememberi was walking around the hospital room a couple of days after my first baby and i felt like i gave birth to another baby cos the clot was so huge and i called the nurse and she asked to see it!!! Eeeeeeew so i showed her and she was like "Nah thats fine no membrane in there just blood" and carried on like she hadnt just seen the most discusting wobbly jelly-like creature sitting in my knickers! HA SOOOO gross! there is no dignity after birth thats for sure :)

Meg-I'm with you, I can't believe that our babies are 4 wks today, holy c___p! So do we say they are a month old, or do we wait until the 29th? I'm saying he's a month today.. 4 wks, so eh, whatever. Does Brink have her 1 mo appointment soon? I'm excited to see how big she is! Logan had his early because we're moving soon and he was 9 lbs 12 oz and 21.5 in long.. My biggg boy! He still seems to not fit into his 0/3 mo pants..They are all too big even though he's out of the "newborn" clothes weight at 10 lbs, oh well.. Jen-I don't know if you've had Aaliyah yet, but I'm still thinking about you 3! I know it took me over night to have Logan, so who knows. I can't wait to hear from you..Shala- I got your request on Cafemom, I just haven't been on there to approve it yet. I'm so excited for you! I don't know if any of you plan to formula feed or were going to pick up formula just in case ( I planned on BF but I couldn't so we have to buy formula ) but there is a huge sale going on at Target on formula.. We got a ma__sive can for 6 $ cheaper than normal, it's on clearance. Ok I'm going to catch some Z's, Logan just now decided to go to sleep, lol. Night!

Arggh. I have decided that due dates are given to us just to terrorize us! It's the most frustrating feeling in the world to wake up the morning of your EDD, and feel no different than any other day (except a little bit more uncomfortable!)...and then you end up spending the whole day just waiting! I think we should change it, so the due date is at week 42, and if the baby hasn't come by then, they automatically induce you. That way, we'd never have to wake up the next day and have to tell people, "yes, I'm still pregnant". I've been feeling funny today...lots of tightening in the uterus, but nothing that really takes my breath away; lots of lower back ache, and my body doesn't seem to want food today. I'm really hoping that means labor is coming, but I'm so paranoid that it's never going to happen! I can't believe I'm one day overdue...I thought I'd die before making it to the end of February, and here I am...

Hey ladies, I know most of you don't know me but I am a good friend of Jennifer's and I just wanted to come on and give an update of sorts. I don't know exactly what has gone on since 5pm this evening but as of 5pm today she still hadn't popped. I guess she was induced yesterday, eventually got her epi, and all progress slowed down. So she was given pitocin (sp?) and at 5pm PST today she was at 9.5 cm. Everything looked good except for that poor baby Aaliyah's shoulders are wide and they are not sure they will fit through the birth ca___l and there is a possibility of needing a c-section. I hope I am not overstepping my bounds here, letting you all know this. I am sure once Jen is good and un-pregnant and recovered she will pop in to give lots of good details. But just wanted to give a slight update.

UGH, it keeps telling me that I'm trying to advertise on here.. I had this whole sweet message for Jen, but this website is being kind of a douche... Anyway, I'm thinking about you Jen! I hope Aaliyah has shown her happy face by now... Shala-I will help you keep this alive, lol., I can't guarantee for how long though, we're off to Tx on MONDAY,.. My husband just got his orders today, ugh.. Anyway, yay for TX..and JEN-I will be driving on I-10 right pa__sed Los Cruces, I thought that was way cool. Ok, night girls.
