Greats - Honestly, I wish I could just avoid them completely without causing a bunch of crap. I live 15 minutes away from them and it's really hard to avoid them. I talk about how I want to move a couple of hours away so I rarely have to see them! It's a balancing act between my sanity and keeping the peace. I don't even care if they hate me other than my stepmom.
Angel - That sounds very promising!! Really hoping the roads become decent for you. Hopefully they've been treated and it helps. Our DOT hit the roads hard before any storm. So even if I'm not paying attention to the weather I usually know something is happening based on them. ha..
My step family is a true terror! You all would think I'm completely nuts for going over there if I told you everything from the past.
Honestly can say I'm SO glad they aren't blood.
At least you guys are finding humor in the ridiculousness that involves DTD at this point!
Vrogers - You're getting so close to your due date!! Could be any time!
Newbie - Thanks for the story! I'm sorry it was rough! Just from your story it seems their practice there is quite different from here in the US! I'm glad you get to go home because the healing process is so much easier in the comfort of your own space.
Ana - I'm probably a little closer to insanity! I was so glad to be home where DS could relax and enjoy his time as well. He even got stressed at times.
Midnight - Still pregnant! Didn't wake up in pain like I was hoping! (Who hopes for that?!
)
So UPDATE - Like I said, still pregnant, BUT I think I'm still having contractions. More painful ones as well. Nothing I'm timing yet, but it was enough for me to actually note that it was actually painful instead of uncomfortable.
Been awake since before 5 am. I couldn't fall back asleep and finally just got up, but then had to take DS back to bed because he woke up and wanted cuddled. Having anxiety over who is watching him. My little brother may be able to, but he has to work. He said he could probably take the day off but it's not guaranteed. I may have to resort to his GF, but I'll have some anxiety if he's only with her. Especially if it's overnight at all.
Just had another contraction and I'm 100% sure they're real ones. Hoping they stay and increase in frequency. I want a decently fast labor. None of this drawn out stuff!!
