I stayed away yesterday bc my dr's appt went terribly & I was too upset to even talk about it. I spent most of yesterday crying and then we to town with my mom, had a friend over to cheer me, then birthday Cake for my newest SIL at my parents! I was so shattered emotionally and physically that by the time my friend left, DH was trying to take me home bc I was falling asleep sitting on the floor lol but I wouldn't let him bc he was watching a movie with my dad & so my mom put me in the recliner with a blanket and I slept for over an hour til The movie was over! We got home I went straight to bed & slept 9 1/2 hours only waking once to pee! It was the best sleep I've had in ages and ages!
My dr basically said I hadn't progressed anymore and that she wasn't going to be able to induce at 39 weeks if I didn't bc I had a 75% chance of csection. She had me so upset and worked up I just cried for hours! Dh was even holding me crying bc he felt bad I was so upset and scared & just kept telling me he would take care of me and it would be ok! .... Well after talking to lots of my l&d nurse friends, as well as family and friends everyone said the dr is crazy and that it's no indication of anything that it's perfectly normal ESP for a first time mom to have little progression before labor and for it to happen all at once instead of gradually over weeks... & not to worry bc baby would come when he was ready! It made me feel mch better. The dr said she would give
me until 41 weeks then if I hadn't had him she would induce or csection. She technically can't do anything I don't allow so I decided just to not worry & to let God and the baby do what they are going to do. I will prob change doctors next time as this one just isn't meshing well with me! ...my l&d nurse Friends said to help that rocking on birthing ball really is good.. As well as dtd, but that you need to lay there for about an hour afterward and let the semen sit on your cervix for the prostoglandins to have tome to work at softening the cervix!
Today has been absolutely lovely, dh & I slept late for us then went and had breakfast, came home and hung up pictures etc in the baby's room and his office and just relaxed and worked together ... Now he is playing his new video game while I lie here and do nothing
and we may go to a baseball game tonight if the rain holds off!
I'm ready for people to start popping too!
I wanna see these LO's!!!
Dare that's crazy about him and the money. You need to have a talk with him! All of our money goes together we both have cards and I make sure our bills are paid and we just talk about any purchases we need to make or whatever. We are like a team about it & only buy personal goodies if we check with the other and have nothing more pressing or a bigger priority that we need for the baby or house etc ... We splurge on one another occassionally, like getting him the video game...but it's not often and it's usually just spontaneous things to cheer the other or show some love
Tomorrow is my big baby shower with my church and all of my lovely friends & I'm so excited! I will get to spend next week organizing and putting it all away which is awesome too!!!!
but that's what we are here for to help each other through these questions etc!!!!
You'll have to get the hubby to rush down there for you! Or you should put on the end of the description 'could pop at anytime so could take a while getting back to you' 
Thank all of youu for your inputs! And none of your posts were "pointless". Even if you have never been there.
