Re: Update - doc appt today

[Guest guest]

Kim,

Sorry about the tooth!!! Ouch! No one like going to the dentist and

laying there with their mouth open! LOL! I just wanted to say I hope the

baby comes on his own this weekend....I CAN'T STAND THE SUSPENSE!!!

Otherwise, I guess I'll wait until Tuesday. I want to see a picture

ASAP though!

Kim,

I know just what you mean sweetie. But don't think the praying is over, it's only just begun. But it worth all the waiting and fears when you are holding that sweet baby in your arms.

I remember all too well how uncomfortable the last month is. With Tessa the last couple of weeks it was getting hard to just walk. And because she was a scheduled c-section, she was born a couple of weeks early. I don't know what I would have done if I had to wait to go into labour. Everytime I stood up and started walking, I was getting very painful pressure down below. It was fine once I got going, but the first few steps were horrible. I hope that he makes his appearance very soon, I'm sure he is feeling very cramped as well - lol!

As for me, my summer seems to get busier everyday. Dh is now working everyday, leaving me alone with the kids. My babysitter has been away for two weeks now, so getting out to do errands is next to impossible. Not to mention getting things done around here is a challenge to say the least. Yesterday I had to cut the grass, which took much longer than it should have. Thank God she is coming home this weekend, maybe I'll be able to do a few more things before the kids go back to school. I'm hoping to paint my bedroom next week. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Love & hugs,

Jo-Ann

Re: Update - doc appt today

Jo-Ann,Thanks, it is weird to be so close to the end. I keep telling my dh that you pray the entire time you are pg to go to term, have a healthy baby, and at the end he does not want to come out! So much for all the worrying that I did. I hope he comes soon, things are really cramped in there, and doctor estimates he is going to be big. Hope not that big! It is like waiting to explode, any minute now we could go!Hope you summer has slowed down and you are getting to relax!Kim39w, 7d

Kim,

UGH! I'm sorry that there hasn't been more progress in the last week. I

think I can very much understand the not wanting to wait any longer then you

have to for the inducing. BUT, I sure hope Christian decides to appear on

his own before Tuesday!!!

Kim,

Hi Sweetie... I'm sorry about the dental problems! What timing, huh? Well, if Christian decides to wait to be evicted from his nice little home, I just wanted to give you some reassurance that the Pitocen isn't "all that bad."

The first time I had it -- it stunk, but the second time, it was no problem at all! So, I'm hoping that you have a fast, easy labor and that the induction will be a good experience for you!

It is always that way with timing, but I am glad I went to the

dentist, my tooth is feeling much better, so at least I won't have

that pain on top of labor pains! I am hoping the pitocin won't be to

bad either. I have a pretty good attitude about it, and am hoping

that helps! LOL! At least I know there are epidurals, if it gets to

bad, I will definetely take one. I was hoping to try natural, but if

this is the only way, then that is how it has to be. The end reward

is the same - a new baby! He is showing no signs of wanting to come

out of there yet, so we will have to wait and see.

I like the way you wrote about having to say the " four of us now " , it

is going to be a change for me to say the " three of us, or my son " .

Wow, weird!
