Looks like I am right in the middle of you two!

Yay! Go June babies (who could almost certainly be born in May too since they will be 37 weeks in May)!

Nicole - CUTE babies!! Your daughter is a mini you isn't she? And heck yeah May babies are awesome, I'm one!! My birthday is May 5th. I could have a baby for my birthday, eh? Also, my oldest daughters' is the 31st, my sister's is the 8th, my niece's is the 3rd and my kitty's is the 2nd. Yes, my kitty Zoey does count as she's my best kitty friend EVER!!

Janelle - Mmmmm I'm totally making those! I printed off the recipe. Where do I find flax seed in the story though??

So Nicole, Libby and Baybee are having June babies right?

True... we could have May babies! But I am trying to think June so I don't get over-anxious in May! Last time I was due April 1, so I was anxious all of March. Glad I'm few days later in the month this time so I can really think JUNE. Really going to TRY not to induce this time!!!

 

[janelleybean]

Misty, where do you shop?

Yea, June babies!

 

[MnJ]

Libby, I was due April 1st with my 2nd daughter! They induced me on the 4th though.

 

[MnJ]

Usually Wal-Mart, Janelle.

 

[BayBeeEm]

Ah yes, back to the babies. They sure were a yummy pair. I looooove cute babies. In fact cute and chunky are my fave!

oh!! I induced Mar 29.. they thought the baby was going to be big... but only 8 lbs 6 ounces, so not bad! I will need to try to be more patient next time!!

Lol, my daughter looks more like her dad now but she does have my lips. She will look more like me by the end of next year.

Yep, I think my due date is June 9th but nothing to confirm that yet.

Lol my son was average but my daughter was my chunker. 9 lbs 1 ounce and 21 1/2 inches long. No wonder I wanted her out early!

I was due July 16th with my son, but was induced on the 6th because apparently I had been leaking amniotic fluid thinking I was just peeing my pants all the time. LOL He was born on the 7th.

Misty, I don't usually shop at walmart, but if I had to guess I would say it might be next to the cereal or rice. If anything just go in there, find the first person that works there and ask them. It's really good for your digestion. You can sprinkle it on just about anything and you can't really taste it. I shop at a store called Winco. They have a bulk bin section and that's where I usually get it, then I can just get a little or a lot if I want.

 

[janelleybean]

Alright Misty, I was wrong. It's near the flour!

SAME reason they induced me too! They said the baby was measuring at least 8 pounds, well she ended up being 7lbs 1 1/2 oz. Way off!! I was induced with my first also. Hoping to actually experience a natural start of labor with this one. In due time though! Not early. Luckily all they had to do to induce me was break my water. No pitocin or anything. For painkillers I had Demoral (sp?) with my first and thought that was the most worthless crap so with my second I went alllll natural!

 

[janelleybean]

OUCH!! how was that Misty? All natural...

 

[MnJ]

OUCH!! how was that Misty? All natural...

Well, I was only in labor for 7 1/2 hours so probably one reason I was able to be strong in my not wanting pain relief. I do remember (proud of this old broad, Krissy, that WAS 20 years ago! lol) that I wanted to punch the nurse cuz she kept coming in asking if I was SURE I didn't want an epidural. NO, I do NOT want a needle in my spine!! She said well I keep it right here in case you change your mind... The next time she came in I planned on shoving it in HER back so that she'd leave me alone! lmao

 

[janelleybean]

Hahah, That made me laugh so hard. Sounds like you had your self a nurse ratched as well.

Yeah she was really ticking me off. I wasn't speaking at all to anybody. I was in pain, I wanted to be left alone and let me deal with it. I didn't want to be looked at, breathed at, talked to, nothing lol. So the fact that she kept coming in and bothering me about something I already said NO to was really getting on my nerves! The only thing I remember saying the whole labor is telling my ex to get off of me cuz he was leaning over me seeing if I was ok.

 

[janelleybean]

Haha. Isn't it amazing what we can remember? My husband held my hand the entire time. I just remember looking up at him telling him I didn't ever want to do this again. I was in tears and in so much pain. Which is all my fault! The nurse started the pitocin drip and I was a total smart ass and kept telling her I could handle it and to turn it up. It didn't hurt that much, but oh, my foot soon found my mouth and I was in hard labor for 6 hours before I was able to get an epidural. Then I got my epidural but the lady didn't tell me about the button I had to push every 20 mins. So it started to wear off and I was freaking out because the pain was so intense. She came in and gave me a shot and I was on cloud nine. I was watching family matters and all I could think was, "my son is going to be born into this world and the first person he is going to see is Urkle."

((sigh)) good times. I'm looking forward to this one for sure! I know what to expect.
