: Mamas. Just checking in. Not much going on here. I woke up yesterday (22Mar) with contrax at 2AM. I waited untill 5 AM and they hadn't abated. I went into L&D.... And sat there untill NOON! Nothing going on except an "irritable" uterus. After sitting there for 7 hours, my uterus wasn't the only thing irritable.

Indigo, your pix were GORGEOUS! You're gorgeous. Your DH is gorgeous. Your kiddos are gorgeous. Lucky lucky lucky you! Soleil is BEAUTIFUL! I got all teary eyed with the pix. :LOL
bellafinn, I wouldn't be able to find my cervix if you put my hand ON IT! Good luck with yours.

: I, too, have nausea, but it is related to heartburn.

Can't make it go away with ANYTHING! I give up. I'll just loose a few more pounds. Can't say that's a bad thing.

to you. Thanks for putting my irritating mother into perspective. DH just keeps on reiterating "She loves you" over and over. I just want her to disappear. You know, the usual, putting my DS3 in disposable diapers all day... Feeding the kids hot dogs. At least I have help, tho! It's like I have a maid/nanny that I can't fire. I mean, if me and my family moved away, she would literally loose 90% of her life. We are her life. A bit smothering, but, well, what can I do. Nada. Zilch. I am thankful for her, tho.... Most of the time.

Hey, Kaylee... You can pick your friends, but not your family. Too bad sometimes, huh? Of course your babe is going to fit! My newborn prefolds look
tiny. Y'know, I finally found my cell phone after about 6 weeks of it being MIA. :LOL DH was surprised. Way to go on cancelling your induction date. I wish I wasn't so chicken-sh*t about going VBAC after 2 c-sections...
but I am. So under the knife I go. Anyway, I'm getting my tubes tied, so I'm having the 2 for 1 special at Methodist Hospital!!! :LOL
MommaJubilee, on Sunday, I was ragging DH so hard, he was sooo depressed. Poor man. I thought he might pack up and leave, I was soooo mean.

I DID apologize, tho.
Christy, what happened at your DR's appointment? Not much going on with my cervix, pain in the ass that it is. I'm sick of contractions that don't do anything!!!! I'm sick of Labor and Delivery at the hospital! I had a nurse that treated me like a turkey yesterday. I told her I envied those who had homebirths. She said, "But they don't have anesthesia" I wanted to smack her. After a few years in the "establishment" they seem to loose all faith in a woman's body to do what needs to be done.

Sorry... GRRRR!!!
Christina, we might make it to the actual real finish line!!!! Really! 37 weeks, chica, and we're there. After that, we can jump on the bed if we want to! DH keeps on telling me that....

tibdoml, boy, does it seem like you have some juggling. Don't you wish people would just let you have the babe and stop by, oh, say, three weeks later? When I had Connor, my first, EVERYONE, and I mean everyone came. My sister brought her 18 month old son who just sat around crying b/c he was in a strange place, my son's father's mother came. So did his dad from Colorado, my aunt from Louisiana (and her husband) not to mention all the family I have here. I was soooo overwhelmed, I had anxiety attack after anxiety attack. Eventually, I was put on Xanax to calm me down. My sister, who sat there a criticzed everything I did, left after a week. My dad told me I had to drink cow's milk to make milk :LOL (he's learned differently by now) and my mother monitored all caffeine intake (are you sure you can drink that, honey?). I know everyone meant well, but, well, I think a mother and a new baby need their space. God willing, I learned something from that and I will only come if my daughter or sons ask me to. Respect and dignity and all that, you know?
I'm having contractions right now, but I am ignoring them b/c I don't want to go to L&D right now. I have class at 7pm tonight and a test in abnormal psychology tomorrow. Tomorrow night, Adam can come. Not untill then.
