[Cowgirl07]

Morgan she will be here soon!
I can't wait to see the babies, I'm so excited.

So earlier this morning I commented about the whole bleeding thing and how it seems to have stopped. Yeah, lots of bright red bleeding and clots started back up today. This is so ridiculous and annoying.

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

This is what happens when I don't get on all weekend!

Julie and Kara!!!! I'm so excited!!! I just found out about you both. Safe delivery wishes to both of you!!! Morgan, you are right behind them!!

 

[Cowgirl07]

Amanda I hope you get better soon!

 

[pdxmom]

Amanda I hope the bleeding subsides.. Mayb just some more residual bleeding???i dono I'm just guessing

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

yeah, that bleeding would drive me nuts Amanda!! So strange!

 

[wavescrash]

Thanks ladies. It's probably just that - residual bleeding. It's just weird that it stops almost completely and then picks right back up. Sometimes it just drips and with how bright red it is... it seems like active bleeding as opposed to what I'd expect by now (dark red/brown bleeding.) Oh well. Right now, it's just annoying to have been bleeding heavily for nearly 6 weeks now. And not able to use tampons lol.


Off-topic but my cousin's husband went in for a vasectomy this morning & posted this to FB, "If you are going to get a vasectomy, make SURE that what they are injecting is novacaine, or whatever they use to numb you and NOT saline, I can tell you by personal experience that you are not going to have a good time...."

Hahaha... ouch

 

[Disneybaby26]

Just checking in... Over 5cm, under 10! Lol

Epi is in, I caved-anyone who can do without is a straight up hero.

Feeling ok, all a bit scary. Xxoo

 

[Cowgirl07]

That made me snort Amanda, it's not really funny but it kinda is.
Good luck Kara! Can't wait to see her gorgeous face.

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

Yay Kara!!! I'll be thinking about you and Julie all day!

 

[wavescrash]

Hahah yeah, I thought it was pretty funny. He was joking about it in his comments explaining what happened so I don't feel bad laughing. Even his wife (my cousin) commented and laughed about it.

Kara - So exciting. I got my epidural early with both Autumn & Hannah. Hannah I had back labor so I got it much earlier than I wanted to (within hours of being admitted lol.) Nothing wrong with getting it! If anything, it helps you stay calm since you don't have to deal with all that pain and it allows your body to progress more easily. Good luck. Thinking of you (& Julie!!) today!

Happy birthday to your babes

 

[brunettebimbo]

Kara I'm no hero just a bit nuts!

Yay for being 5cm already! How exciting!

Anyone know what time it is where Julie is?

 

[Cowgirl07]

I believe it's 1220 pm. Same as me.

 

[Disneybaby26]

Thank you so much!! Yea, she was back to back so it was back labor all morning. Went in the tub for a bit. Def much more relaxed for now. The pressure in the butt feeling is wild!

 

[wavescrash]

Yeah pretty sure she's an hour behind me which would make it 12:20pm where she is.

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

I was also wondering about Julie, but I guess with a C Section, she might be recovering for a bit!

I think when I leave to go to the hospital, I am going to deactivate my facebook page until i'm ready. I don't want anyone checking us in on facebook, or posting pictures of the baby and tagging without our permission.. it'd only be a day or so.

 

[RobertRedford]

aaaah so exciting, Julie and Kara!!! I cannot wait to "meet" all three babies! Keeping all of you in my thoughts today.

Amanda, LOL at the vasectomy story but oucccchhhh.

 

[brunettebimbo]

Britt that's a brilliant idea! I was pissed off because my Auntie congratulated me before id put anything on!

 

[wavescrash]

Yeah Julie said she was keeping the babies with her following the c-section (whereas I let Leah go to the nursery to get a bath/assessed.) For me, the surgery from start to finish was about 40 minutes and then I was in recovery for an hour before going to our postpartum room. So I imagine it'll be awhile before we hear from her.
