Pregnancy Info HOME

yeah I know. I am not really mad at them or anything - I'm just feeling sad and depressed for myself. :) haha...well...I better make dinner and bathe the kid!

You are ent_tled to feel sorry for yourself, I give you permission. Maddy is finishing her dinner, I made her cheesy peasy scrambled eggs (scrambled eggs with cheese and peas in them), she loves it. That was great for me because it was easy. I still have no idea what I am going to have, and Jimmy won't be home until about 9:30 tonight. Nathaniel's room is about done and I can't stop going in there and looking at everything. I need to get some dreft and start thinking about washing things. I also need to get a carseat leveler, so we can install the infant seat in the next couple of weeks. I scrubbed my Metrolite stroller and it cleaned up nicely, so for now, I am not going to get a double. Maddy would prefer to walk any day and usually stays with me pretty well, so we will see. I think I have a 50/50 chance of not needing one. Are you completely ready??

hey there - yeah, I'm ready -clothes washed, baby bed out...body worn out...haha...I'm ready. I think I MIGHT head to the supermall today. I can't take being home anymore and I'm sick of Southcenter and everything around here -and it's raining and I can't stand being in the house. Maybe I'll give you a call when I head down and if you guys have nothing going on we can hook up. No big deal either way. I just need to get out of here and get my mind off things. What better way to do that than shopping! :) I still need some curtains...Ok, off to shower!

Today sucks. I spoke to my great friend Jessica (we've been friends since we were 12), and she was in hysterics. Her husband has been beating on her! I knew there was something wrong with him when I met him several years ago. On top of everything she has a 3 year old and a 10 week old, an intrauterine infection from her c-rsection, her endometriosis is really bad and she had a nervous breakdown and was admitted last weekend. Her parents know what is happening and her mom wants to take her and the kids away next weekend and have her file a police report. I just don't know if she will. Brian told her that he was going to take the kids if she tried to go. Today she is trying to get ahold of the psychiatric doctor that took care of her over the weekend. I don't know if she is going back or not. I couldn't just sit here and do nothing, so I called the Muketio police department and spoke to an officer in the domestic violence unit to find out if there was anything I could do to help her. This is really upsetting me, I love her, and the thought of Brian laying his hands on her out of anger infuriates me. I also called her mom and left a message that I was concerned and could she please call me this evening. God I hope nothing happens over there toinght when he gets home from work. the officer told me that if I call there tonight and think something is going on that I can call the police department and they will go out and see. I can't even put into words what I wish would happen to him on his way home from work today. I am so scared for her and her kids. :o{

oh wow - that's terrible! I'd want to beat his b___t!!! I had an ex that got abusive when I broke up with him and I had to get a protection order cuz he started stalking me and stuff. It is scary stuff. The police said that once things get started it's easy to escalate. She needs to get out of there -but it will probably be really hard for her. Be as supportive as you can, no matter what she decides. Sometimes its hard to leave....man, that really sucks! Especially with a new baby! Keep me posted!!! Well we had another june mommy have her baby - the first one to actually have it in June. :) Everyone has gone early so far - I'm the only late bloomer!!! Argh!!! Hey, I was feeling more crampy this afternoon AND had lots of slimy stuff when I went to the bathroom earlier. I'm trying not to get my hopes up though - all my previous signs have gone nowhere....I'll keep ya posted. If I go in the middle of the night do you want me to let ya know or just wait till morning. I don't know if you get text messages on your cell or not. Let me know!

My cell phone is pretty basic. I never want to spend much on them. I don't know if I can get text messages or not. You can try. Otherwise, you can always call my home phone. I would be the only one to answer it, I'll keep it at my bedside just incase. 253-846-8302. So you lost some more of your mucous plug? I am so concerned for Jessica and I wish I could do something for her that would make this all go away. I am heartsick.

haha ... basic phone service eh? :) I think it's free anymore but I'm not sure. I feel kind of yucky tonight - my stomach is a bit crampy and I'm not really very hungry - food kind of turns me off and I feel like I have to poop all the time. :) I'm eating a big bowl of pineapple though just in case it helps! I'm so bored! Tim went to teach and Rachel is in bed and nothing good is on. I'm semi-watching Trista and Ryans wedding on VH1 for lack of anything else to watch. Remember them? The Bachelorette couple?? :)They are so disgustingly sweet on each other...haha...I'm really sorry about your friend. Try not to worry about it too much - or don't stress yourself. Just try and support her and help her with what she needs. I hope she can do something about it though.

Your labor will start soon, It has to!! I called the Mukeltio police department yesterday and spoke to a female officer in the domestic violence until and she gave me her name and number and told me to pa__s it on to Jessica. She said she would go out to her home to take a statement and give her advice since she is sick and has an infant. I thought that was nice. I spoke to Jessica's mom lastnight and gave her the info and then Jess called later and I told her about it. I tried calling her this moring and there is no answer. I don't know wether I should be worried or not?? I hope nothing happened lastnight. Anyway, maybe the pineapple will do something this time. I do know that frequent bowel movements are a sign of impending labor. It means the baby's head is low enough to be putting a lot of pressure on your bowels. Either that or you ate too much spicy food!! LOL. I hope you can get some rest today. Cynthia will be here in about 30 minutes and I want to get the laundry separated in to loads before she gets here. Let me know if anything happens.

I can only hope pineapple will do something. :) And last night was hell!! Every time I rolled over JR would freak out and slam his head into my cervix/pelvic bones so hard that I almost screamed. My whole stomach would tighten up so hard and it almost felt like contractions. It hurt so bad! I've never felt anything like it but it did freak me out about natural labor! I thought if THAT hurt, imagine him coming OUT down there without drugs!! I don't know if I can do it now - haha - but I'll give it a shot for sure. I cleaned out my closet this morning and took out all the maternity clothes that I will never ever wear again and cleaned the bedroom to make room for the cosleeper. Now I need to clean out the armoire and get all the c___p out of there that I won't wear. I hate clutter so this is nothing abnormal. :) I have been meaning to get to it in a while and I finally feel good enough to do it. Let me know how it goes with your friend - if you hear anything!

I am starting to feel really sorry for you. That kid CANNO'T possibly stay in there for much longer?!? Maybe tonight. I don't like clutter either. I am constantly cleaning out closets, drawers and purging items from every surface. I really have the cleaning bug right now. I have been scrubbing everything, and believe it or not, all of my laundry is done. Dinner is almost ready, so I need to get Maddy in from the deck to wash her hands. I made chicken, vegeterian baked beans and vegetables, Maddy's favorite dinner. If anything exciting happens, you know where I am. (fingers crossed)

well, I didn't get much else done. :) After Rachel and I had lunch I showered and decided I needed a nap too. We didn't get up till 3:45. :) I did start some more laundry and need to empty the dishwasher and then SIT on my b___t and watch TV. :) i feel really sick today though and it's not going away. Food does not appeal to me at all - I ate tomato soup for dinner and will probably regret that - acidic and dairy - bad combos for me. Oh well - maybe it will irritate my bowels which will in turn irritate my uterus. I can only hope!! :) Another June mommy had her baby - everyone has been early. What's up with that? :) sigh...ok, I'll keep you posted!

It's a conspiracy!!! All the other june mommies got together to plot against you! I know it starts to feel like it will never end, but it will. Look at it this way, you will be out of misery about 5 weeks before me if you go to 42. I had dinner about 2 hours ago and I am starving again, and I have heartburn. I think I will have some toast. I had a few BH today that took my breath away. I can't imagine what real contractions must feel like without an epidural. I still had pain with Maddy, but it was all in my b___t, even just that was horrid. I am starting to get anxious and I still have 6 weeks to go. I will be 33 tomorrow.

yay for 33 weeks! I have nasty heartburn today too - maybe I ate too much pineapple? I can't eat any more - blah. :) Yeah, it's a conspiracy! :) I am rooting for tonight but I would really like a June 7th baby if he's gonna make me wait! Friday, the 6th, is Tim's son's birthday. He'll be 19!!! yikes - makes me feel like an old lady even though he's not my kid. BH suck. I know what you mean about being freaked out! I had some major contractions with Rachel, but I also went REALLY fast once they broke my water. I'm pretty scared of going through it again but...I know I can do it if I set my mind to it. As long as I am not totally exhausted when I go it. When I get tired, I just wear out so fast. Oh hey, eat for me too cuz I'm just not hungry! Toast sounds ok though -oh and cream of wheat!! hmmmm...maybe I'll eat some.

Alot of people put b___ter in their cream of wheat, but I like it to be practically swimming in milk. Jimmy isn't home yet. He is on-call until monday and there was a problem he had to deal with. Anyway, some guy in the company who works out of somewhere south of Portland is responsible for training Jimmy on some system they will be working with. Well, he e-mailed Jimmy today that long distance was too hard for him, so Jimmy would have to come there for the training he needs, like next week!! Jimmy's supervisor got the e-mail also and intercepted it. He wrote back to the guy that it was out of the question because Jimmy's wife (meaning me), was almost 8 months pregnant and I would kill him first. That is actually what he wrote to the guy. I thought it was funny that he would word it like that, but how true. There is no way I would let that happen when I am having this kid in 6 weeks!! I can barely get my shoes on by myself!!! If you really want to go without drugs then you can find it in yourself to do it. Your OB said you would probably go fast again. I have faith in you. My labor with Maddy was 11 and a half hours and really didn't seem too bad to me, other than the two 2nd degree tears and the epidural that wasn't quite right. I know I will have an epidural again this time, so I'm not afraid of the pain that I will have. I am more anxious than anything. I just want to get through the next 6 weeks and have this kid out of me, fully baked. Jimmy just got home so I have to go. Talk to you in the morning.

hey - just wanted to say hi real quick before I get ready to head out for my appt. It's at 11:10 today. No baby yet, obviously. :) I feel kind of leaky today though - I can't tell what it is. It's not pee that's for sure, but you know, you get lots of discharge at this stage. I'm just not sure if it 's that or amniotic fluid. Have to keep an eye on it and ask the doc today. :) I'll let you know how it goes later!

I'm on the edge of my seat!! What did she say??
