CONTRACTIONS!

Im due....6 weeks from yesterday.... holy crap.

I went in yesterday morning for my now, 2wice weekly stress tests to monitor the baby.... ( im one of the lucky ones )

and they said it looked healthy but did I know i was having contractions..... and duh..."..UH NO...since I've never had them....how would I know what they feel like?"

Freaked me out a bit.... made me realize I still have pooop left to get in a group....

I feel like I can no longer get off the couch without help... I waddle at points during the day when im tired and i've only gained 8 pds....just think about those people who gain 50 or more...WHEW!

nursery pics coming soon....

I wish you all the best for an easy delievery and great health after for you and the baby.
Take the drugs to ease the pain....
thats the one common thing I have heard other women tell their friends lol....
Hows bubba doing and takin the whole process?Gonna be in the delievery room with you???
I miss talkin to you so buzz me at night sometime.I am usually around playin the xbox that I got for xmas,on the tv I also got for xmas lol

Wow, seems time flew by so fast. Well for me , I'm sure not for you. lol

I agree, take the drugs. None of this tryin to do it the natural way. [img]wink.gif[/img]

I hope its an easy delivery, and you have a happy healthy baby.

Then, I hope you get some sleep in the next 18 years lol

Much luvvvvvvvvv [img]graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

HOLY!!! Even though my Mom did everything completely without drugs or anything I am still saying screw that and opting for an epidural...lol. I wonder how they expect us first time Mom's-to-be to know exactly what is really a contraction or just the muscles and ligaments stretching as the baby gets bigger? [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img]

Demon one~
Laughing about the "how were you suppose to know it was contractions" statement...but seriously sparkler, how WOULD you know???

I have never had children, but for all my friends here at home, I can tell you, when the baby is ready, it is ready.
You are at a safe point ....so do not be afraid.

My best friend from kindergarten (age 40) tho I am not yet..... until the end of March...
had contractions, and delivered 6 weeks early to a healthy , beautiful baby girl.

Just enjoy yer moments....and I agree w/ everyone else...go w/ the drugs *L*
You and baby will both be healthy demon one, this I KNOW!!!

Take care of you, and please keep us all posted, as we love ya! [img]wink.gif[/img]

Amy...you have a pm....... [img]graemlins/kiss.gif[/img]

it doesnt surprise me that she didnt know...she didnt even know what a penis was until she was 30... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

...we never got any baby belly or pregnant chloe pics.... [img]graemlins/cry_smile.gif[/img]

lol, before very long at all now... we will be looking at BABY pics!!! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

i predict that the little princess is going to demand early admittance... just a feeling....s* not because of the contractions... that's totally normal... *L* just... i don't know why... just a feeling. So yes! get your pOOp in a GrOuP, mom! i am predicting at least 2 weeks early... so when it happens, everyone 'member i said it first! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

love you! [img]graemlins/heart.gif[/img] *HUGGGGGS*

I remember the anticipation with my two girls, and counting all the fingers and toes and stuff.... That was before I figured out at home that babys cry alot. Hello baby, good bye sleep for the first month or two. Anticipation is building yet again for us too. First time for kristin, and even though I have witnessed the whole baby thing before, each baby seems like the first time.

Having witnessed both a c-section with each of my two girls, and a natural delivery with my ex girlfriend... I know nothing of the pain, but even though I couldn't feel anything, labor made me cringe...

If it was me, go with the drugs... They wouldn't give you anything that would hurt you or the baby... Trust your ob, and I look forward to seeing the healthy baby pics too [img]smile.gif[/img]

I agree with RA, it will be soon... I'm thinking somewhere between a week and a half to two weeks... Thats what my gut feeling is... Just relax, and everything will be fine...

I'm wagering on a pretty smooth delivery too [img]smile.gif[/img] Keep up the good work [img]smile.gif[/img]

wow time flies.. sounds like we'll be getting baby pics at the same time as our belly pics [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

okay...back at the Dr this morning....
no big contractions to worry about... so all is going according to plan....

so later rather than sooner....


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

as far as the drugs go.... [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]wink.gif[/img]

Bubba spent years and years and years in school to be trained in the fine art of anesthesia... YIPPPEEEEEEEE so i'm all edjamacated in epidurals, spinals, nubane and intrathecals....

if i need one i will sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo be having meds to help....

holy cow.... one day closer...


we went to Sioux Falls last nite and bought the coooshiest chair for the nursery....

i should bitch more often! lol

*takes note of the bandwagon* hehehehe [img]wink.gif[/img]

I am so glad things are going ok for you!

I didnt get a pm though [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img] *L*

I can't remember when your due date is. I know it is in February around Daniel and I's 1st wedding anniversary which is the 17th. But which day is it? I think we should all do a baby pool type thing to see who is closest to when the baby is born. Like the date and how much she weighs and how long. [img]smile.gif[/img]
