Got a ton of bh again yesterday. Drank loads of water and they finally calmed down. Gonna have to mention that to dr on friday

 

[mailcmm]

Spent the am in l&d. Contractions were 6 min apart at 1am, 4min apart at 5 am and 3 min apart by 7 am. Haven't dilated a bit. So I am home now, exhausted and they are finally letting up. Gonna be a long wait. Hopefully these will just go away until its really time. So miserable feeling.

 

[moter98]

Oh no mail! Looks like Finn wants to keep you guessing. FX the next time is the real deal.

 

[MightyMom]

Aw mail, he's a real practical jokester isn't he? Maybe he just wants to wait for his due date.

 

[mailcmm]

God forbid he waits til the 2nd week of January. Lol I am in agony. Haven't slept in over a week. Since he is down on my pelvis my pain there is 20 times worse then normal. Add in very painful contractions continually throughout the day and night and I really just want to disappear. Last night was so bad dh started to cry because " seeing me in this much pain is killing him" I am hoping that he comes sometime between now and the 28. If not my dr is gonna have to admit me and put me to sleep for at least 3 days to recharge. I keep hoping my water will break. With my first 2 pregnancies I contracted for a week they were closer then these though so the dr induced after a week. Due to stressed out fetus with first and lots of bleeding with second. I didn't dilate then either. And to add insult to injury my brother came to fauxmas sick and now I am getting another cold. One more Day to power thru with a smile and then I can collapse. Kids leave until day after Christmas tomorrow. Then I can stop pretending everything is great and stop doing all this running that I do to keep thier lives normal.

So sorry to hear mail But the end is near! If you have Finn before Christmas while your kids are with their Dad, will he bring them to the hospital so they can meet him?

Little guy was sick Sunday, but seems to be feeling better now. He wanted to be held 24/7 which is not like him at all. Poor baby.

I wrapped a couple gifts and I have all of my shoppind done except for gift cards. Ugh, I feel like I am never going to get everything done by Christmas!

 

[mailcmm]

Their grandma will bring them. She planned on coming even if they aren't with her. My old in laws are fabulous. Just ex is a turd. Lol just 2 weeks or so ago she came to visit with his aunt and his girlfriend. It's really good for the kids too.

Sorry little guy was sick. Sick infants are the worst. Is he all better now?

As for Christmas... I am so glad to be done. Fauxmas falling this year was awesome. Especially since I feel so horrible. I am so glad I powered thru though. Kids were happy and everyone seemed to have a blast. Do you guys celebrate at home or are you going to family?

 

[Twinkie210]

Little guy is feeling better. He is still congested, but I imagine he will be that way for the next couple months.

We have a crazy schedule for Christmas. First let me preface this by saying that my MIL lives in Louisiana and my FIL is usually too busy with his new girlfriend, so usually we don't have much visiting on DH's side. But Christmas Eve we go to my Mom's, then we open presents Christmas morning at our house, go back to my Mom's to open presents, go to my SIL's late morning/early afternoon and back to my Mom's for Christmas dinner. Luckily everyone lives within 10 miles of each other!

This year my MIL is in town staying with my SIL I am seeing a fight around Christmas, but call me selfish I don't care. This lady has never made my family a priority, so I am not going to make her my priority during the holiday. We will see them, I am not that mean! But I am not going to drop everything and spend all day with her just because she finally decided to come to visit (my son is only almost 3 months old!) Ok rant over, LOL.

 

[MightyMom]

Aw Twinkie, that's good you're sticking to your guns. My DH went to visit his mom with DD and ask if he could have a pair of cowboy boots he wore as a toddler. She said no because she didn't want to "just give them away." He's livid. For pete's sake, what is she doing with them? They are a decoration on her table. Seriously. She hasn't given DD one gift ever. DH said he's writing her off. What a selfish witch. He's never asked her for anything and all she does is ask favors. She's the least self-reliant person on the planet, if it wasn't for public assistance and constantly asking everyone else for rides, she wouldn't function. This is not that she's in a rut, she has been this way since the 80s. Frankly I think she's a little nuts and I'm glad to not have to worry about her anymore. What a nutter.

 

[BERDC99]

As of Jan 11 I will be unemployed! This really sucks for my family. We will be okay for about six months but not a day longer. Please pray that something works out for me.

 

[moter98]

Praying for you berdc. Talk about worst time of year to get such news!

 

[baby_bray]

I agree, that is some poor timing...! Hope something works out for you berdc...I'll be thinking about you and your family

 

[Twinkie210]

Sorry to hear that Berdc I hope you can find something quickly, but enjoy your time with Olivia!

 

[MightyMom]

Aw Berd that sucks. I'll keep my fingers crossed that something better comes along for you.

 

[mailcmm]

Berdc... I believe I posted on fb, but this really is horrible. Hopefully you will find something.

Twinkie... We heard a mountain of shit when I said we couldn't come this year. I don't want to be this close to delivery and 2 hours away. Nobody gets it. Lol stand strong and enjoy your holiday.

Mighty.... I have one of those. So annoying.

 

[Twinkie210]

Anyone want a naughty black lab that likes to eat Christmas presents and dig holes under fences???? Our dog ate a package of K-cups that were supposed to be for DH's Christmas present! Oh and she ate part of a bag of chocolate chips. How this dog has not died yet, I will never know!

 

[MightyMom]

LOL! We keep all of our edible Christmas presents on the mantle for that reason!

 

[mailcmm]

My dog cooper eats a stuck of butter a day. Lol


Colta... How goes conception?
