Thread: *~*~* Eirinn's (emommyof2) Birth Lodge *~*~*

Again, I am sorry for never being on here!

You have had a busy week! I hope you are either feeling better or holding your baby!

Nope, not holding a baby

Everything pretty much piddled off into nothing all night so at least I got a good night sleep. Woke up sore as heck however, and still having iffy contractions. Seriously think my uterus has ADHD it'll start up and going then fizzle off for a few hours and pick up again.

Hubby and I walked the mall while DD was at school, managed to get 4 doozies of contractions in the hour long walk, but since we weren't timing they could have been spread out all over the place. The ride home of course was full of hilarity, my husband thinks he's a comic and well... he's funny enough that he keeps me laughing LOL.

We were talking about the hypno-babies suggestion that the partner place a hand on your forehead or shoulder if it looks like their tensing up etc... and since I don't much like being touched we were discussing other options. As we're driving down the alleyway hubby announces his coffee has been leaking, pointing to his lap where there is a very bad looking wet patch LOL! I of course start laughing as a killer contraction hits AND we drive into pothole hell! So there I am howling with laughter, crying because it frikkin hurts, and he makes the goofiest face ever and dramatically places his hand on my forehead then shoulder! So that just made the laughing worse, and I felt like my whole body was locked up in a Charlie horse! Needless to say when we finally parked and I had calmed down enough to start breathing and speak... I slapped him and told him never to do that again LOL

If -that- doesn't get things going... I'm doomed to go to 42 weeks! LOL

Hahahahahahaha... too cute.

I am the eating machine today!!! OMG!

For the last... two or three weeks I've been lucky if I had an appitite at all! This morning I woke up and had the CRAZY MUST EATS! I woke the whole family up and dragged them moaning and whining out to Phils! Mmmmmmm Bacon, sausage, eggs, hashbrowns, toast, pancakes... I was in preggo heaven! Hubby just stared in awe as I cleared my plate and helped DD with hers LOL.

Then, we get home and manage to roll ourselves out of the car into the yard to get some much needed yardwork done... and if any of you have a hint for getting spit stains *gag* out of concrete steps... please help! I am going to use Hubby's face to clean the steps if I ever see him spitting out there again SO GROSS!

We had to take DD in for her booster shots, *shudder* I hate taking the kids for vaccines since I feel so guilty about sticking them full of needles :P But she took it like a champ, and only needs one more small booster in about 3 months (we could have done it today but thought 3 needles was just cruel) when I take babykins in for his first set. Ten timbits later (doughnut holes for those not Canadians) she's milking the shots for all their worth, and I believe I heard Hubby promising her a pony earlier ROFL

Made Lasagna for dinner (after snacking all afternoon on everything I could get in my face) and mmmmm super cheezy homemade carb factory is soooooo goood! I swear I've gained like 10lbs today alone! Hubby laughed at me when I was serving myself and said "Wow... it eats! Quick Jayde don't stand between Mommy and dinner... might loose an arm!" *facepalm* He thinks he's soooo funny.

Oddly enough not a SINGLE contraction, braxton hicks, ache or pain today... totally odd... Yesterday I walked half a block and thought my back was going to explode! Today, working my butt off all day and not a twinge... I could handle going to 42 weeks if it stays like this... sadly I know it won't LOL

well it sounded like a jam packed day and a yummy one to boot!

Yeah I spoke too soon :P I was winding up for some dessert (pie) and lost all appetite and started having really really mild contractions... you know the kind... where you have to stop and wonder if that's a contraction or the baby kicking LOL

One of these days my body is going to start making some darn sense to me... really... I've only had it 31 years you'd think I'd have figured it out by now! geesh

I hear you. Tonight I ate 6 silver dollar pancakes I stole from the kids, about 5ozs of my 6oz steak, a sm. bowl of coleslaw, and 4 pieces of bacon. I'm stuffed at the moment, at least my reflux is, lol.

Plus this evening it felt like I was having some strong contractions but it could have just been baby's head combined with her hiccups. Its getting frustrating for me as well.

haha! Maybe we'll both get super lucky and have our LO's tonight! LOL

no no, I'm holding out now for Friday the 13th

Could you try having hubby give your peace and release cues without touching you. That might help. Did you take the actual class or do the homestudy?
