Oh, also - every person I've met in town who has heard about the baby has had the same reaction which is, "Oh, that's wonderful! Congratulations!"
But every person we met in new Orleans looked at us with sullen eyes and said something along the lines of, "Oh. You're having a kid. Good luck with that."

One lady even said, "Don't do it", even after I told her I recently found out I'm preggers. You parents need to make up your minds if this is the best experience of my life or the worst.

I'm also going through the "Yes, that sounds delicious! Oh wait, now that it's in front of me, I'm only going to be able to eat 2 bites and that's all I can take!" stage.

The most infuriating thing has been having to eat every 2-3 hours or risk getting sick. Food, which I used to enjoy IMMENSELY has become a chore and I no longer enjoy eating! ::bitches and whines::

Other than that, I'm doin' pretty good. Much less queasiness and no mood swings.

I remember feeling semi-human during the second trimester of both of my pregnancies. The horrible morning sickness went away, so I consumed everything in sight and had lots of cravings. I also remember being incredibly horny.

I gained a lot of weight with my first pregnancy. When I walked into my baby shower at my mom's, she looked at me and said loudly enough for all of the guest to hear, "Oh my God, you are absolutely huge!" Yeah, thanks mom.

The second trimester sucked for me just as hard as the first and third. Not only did I hate eating anything but anything I did eat found my body an unholy place to dwell and forcibly thrust itself from my body by any means possible. I love being a mother but the thought of being pregnant again makes me want to sit in a corner crying while breaking out in a cold sweat. So my advice is pop the kid out and get your tubes tied so that demon spawn never takes root again.

Mum herself was an easy birth, but she nearly died giving birth to my older sister after being in labour for over twenty-four hours, so I don't really understand where the hell she is getting that idea from.

Lila-I had Braxton Hicks contractions from October 1st -November 1st every 8-10 minutes all day every day. The doctor kept saying "drink more water they'll go away". Well I was already peeing every 5 minutes as it was. My daughter was 2 weeks late and when the doctor finally induced me, I went through 10 hours of drugs to make me have contractions before they decided I had gone too long and did a C-section. So maybe I am a little tainted by the whole child birth experience but 1 is more then enough for me especially when I was on the birth control shot when I got pregnant.

My daughter was 2 weeks late and when the doctor finally induced me, I went through 10 hours of drugs to make me have contractions before they decided I had gone too long and did a C-section.

Mine was 10 days late, so they put this stuff on my cervix to coax me along. I went home that night and my water broke. Back to the hospital. For the next 20 hours I had low level contractions, but my cervix never opened more than a couple of centimeters, even after they started giving me the Pitocin. They ended up doing the c-section.

The funny thing to me was that when I was in high school a friend of mine told me I had good child-bearing hips. It turned out to be true, but only in the sense that my daughter hated the stroller, so I usually ended up bearing her on my hips.

Sonogram Story:

When my husband and I went in for our first sonogram, we were all excited to see the baby that had been making me so Frost-ing sick for the previous 2 and months. As I undressed from the waist down and put the paper sheet over my lap, my husband happened to glance over at the sonogram machine and saw the sonogram wand. (I tried to find a picture of this device, but couldn't, so imagine a 14-inch long, thin wand with a round bulb at one end.) We joked about it a little while we waited and I kept glancing at it nervously, wondering how much of it I was going to have to take. (It ended up not being much.)

The doctor came in and started the procedure, and there was our baby! It was sleeping and wouldn't seem to move around much. The doctor kept moving the wand into different positions to try to get the baby to move, and finally said, "Well, let's see if we can wake it up." and started to shake the wand WHILE IT WAS STILL INSIDE ME.

The baby did wake up and kicked both arms and legs as if to say, "WHY ARE YOU WAKING ME UP AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY MOTHER??"

Dixie Princess 583 8

They used that on me at my first appointment. The doctor stood there and put a condom on it and then looked at me and I couldn't help it but I told her "If I had only thought of using that in the first place I wouldn't be here"

Your first ultrasound is usually done internally, I think, due to the size of the baby. The further along you get they do the outside of the stomach, which truth be told was a lot more painful then internally.

Heh, our first sonogram the tech. tried on my belly but noticed I had a "reverted uterus" or something so she busted out the wand. Fortunately, I was not at an angle where I could see anything but my husband's face when HE saw it.
He cringed and said, "Doesn't that hurt?" I smiled and said, "Ask me again in 8 months."

Okay, if we're going to start sharing horror stories, I'll tell my mum's cause she doesn't post here and I have none of my own.


My sister was a home birth. This was not my mother's decision. She wanted to go to the hospital about forty-five minutes away, mainly because she hated the local doctor. In all of the sessions leading up to the birth, he ignored her completely and refused to listen to her opinion.

When her water broke, she begged and pleaded with my father to bring back any doctor but that one. But no. She got the Emerson.

First, he refused to believe her water had broken. How on earth could she know if it had happened? It was just her body; he was the medical professional. So, he began sticking this long pin thing inside her to cause the water to break, only he wasn't poking the bubble (or whatever it is) he was poking my sisters head. When she did eventually come out, she was covered in scratches from it.

It took a very long time, but eventually, after 24 long hours, at the stroke of midnight, during a freak April blizzard on Friday the 13th, my sister was born.

Stone Canadian Bikini! 62,262 18
07/05/2007 09:51 PM

The doctor and my father promptly forgot about my mother.

My aunt is a nurse. She and my mother have never gotten along, but she was getting off of work so she stopped by to see the new baby, since she'd heard it was a hard pregnancy. She noticed my mother was slipping in and out of conciousness, so she pulled back the bedsheets and saw that there was heavy heavy bleeding. Basically, my mother was bleeding to death while the doctor, the nurse, and the father of the child had dinner in the next room.

My mother should have died that night. My aunt gave her something like twice the recommended amount of transfusions.

Shockingly, she still stayed with my for another year, and had another baby with him, although I was born in a proper hospital with a proper midwife and no one even came close to dying.

The End.

Back when I was pregnant, it was common to only have one ultrasound, and that was in the second trimester when the baby was large enough to see everything including the gender.

Insurance companies must be feeling generous these days. It used to be you'd only get one early on if you were expected to have a high risk pregnancy.

Don't worry about being shy, KChi, assuming you've started to show.

If you can't see down there any more, chances are we can't, either.

All modesty and shyness evaporates during and after childbirth. It's one thing to have your cooter on display for all of the "professionals" during the delivery, but I took it one step further. After my daughter was born via c-section and taken into the neo-natal unit for breathing problems, and my son was very ill with what we thought was menengitis, I was completely and totally exhausted. I was naked on the commode having bled from the bed to the bathroom and the sweet nurse was giving me a spongebath. That's when the pediatrician walked, and proceeded to introduce himself to me. I even shook his hand.

Straw+ 98,005 37

1st tri was hellish. I was S.I.C.K. In order to keep working I had to get a prescription for Reglan (anti nausea).

2nd Tri got better, but still some nausea and the worst gag reflex in the world.

If I could smell anything related to the toilet, it made me gag just because I knew the smell was coming from the toilet, even if it smelled like bleach. I had no cravings, but there was one time when I was just driving my car, not even thinking of food, and suddenly I thought of a big plate of spaghetti. I wasn't craving it, just thought of the spaghetti and kept on driving, wondering where the hell that came from.

At my 20 week ultrasound, I wanted to know what the gender was. The tech tried all sorts of angles with the EXTERNAL doppler, and no luck because of the position my daughter was sitting in. They also could not get a good picture of a certain part of the heart that they needed to see, so the tech recommended a follow up to get the heart picture. Thank God for that because it gave me an excuse to be able to still find out the gender. 4 weeks later we went back for that and she was STILL in that position. I had drank plenty of water, but because of the position they had me drink more water. Didn't help, so they had me pee. Didn't help. So they inverted my bed and pounded the living hell out of me and my unborn, which hurt, but she finally spread em.

All in all my pregnancy was easy as pie. The morning sickness of course was very, very, unpleasant, but if it happens again next time I'll just request reglan right away. Labor hurt like a bitch but only until I gave in and got the epidural. I didn't have an episiotomy and didn't tear either. I heard they don't do those too often anymore.

How do you think I got in this situation?

I haven't eaten since dinner last night so I was REALLY hungry around 2 this afternoon. I got in the car, drove to Wendy's, got lunch for me & hubby, drove home, opened the baked potato, made a face and walked away. Matt was all, "What's wrong?" I told him, "Goddammit, once again I don't want the meal I bought." I waste so much money on food these days.

Then I saw a commercial for Dairy Queen and decided I'd rather have a Blizzard. Damn you, television commercials.

Oh, and in baby news: KChi, I had my 2nd routine ultrasound yesterday and finally got to hear the heartbeat!
Apparently baby was sleepy and the lady kept waking him up by beating my stomach with the wand. I told her, "You know, it would be weird to sue you people for child abuse already but I can find a way."

Level II? How many wizards did you have to kill to get there?

2 Wizards, 3 Evil Clerics, 5 Knobby Trolls and 1 Red Dragon.

These levels are HARD, yo!

Ditto with the body pillow. I can't fathom sleeping without it anymore. I think sometimes if my husband disappeared, I wouldn't notice as long as I have my pillow. Now that you started with it, you will NEVER, EVER, sleep without it again.

The WTF stage of my pregnancy was when my ex was arrested and I ended up going into labor in a house of corrections facility. I was visiting him, trying to be supportive. Hmmph.

I'm not trying to be funny. It's so very, sadly true. But I can laugh about it now.

And we, in turn, can laugh at you!

Sorry, that was harsh.
