Congrats, Tink! What a big boy!! I can't wait to see pictures and hear his birth story!!
WP, I am all for the sweep. I had it done with DD2. I think you would be fine to go a little early if your baby is measuring big, and if your labors are that quick and your DH will be out of town, I think it would be good to get things moving!

Tink, he is absolutely beautiful, I'm so pleased for you all xxxxxxxxxxx:kiss::kiss:
Oh, I don't know girlmom.....you may be next. I don't even know if I am dialated at all. Only time will tell.
I think I am going to start my EPO next week after my appt, that way I can see what kind of difference it will make by the next week. Big chore of the day is to get my livingroom furniture vaccumed out and cleaned.....who knows what I am going to find in there :)
WP, I am so impressed that you are still doing all kinds of crazy chores. You couldn't pay me to vacuum out the furniture, and I am only halfway done! Are you nesting?
Thank you everyone, we are on cloud 9. I just can't get over, my SON is here.
His Birth Story:
Ok, So as you all know Water broke and so on...So here is the update from about 3:00PM, since water had been broken, nothing major had been goin on. SO around 3 contractions were close by not terrible and we decided to go to hospital because I HAD SO MUCH pressure it was making me nervous. We check in, get a room water gushes big time with in about 4 mins of being on birth ball and in my room. After that last gush, The shit hit the fan. I just had so much pressure, it's all I kept saying..."pressure" They checked me I am at 3CM still Wow great...so they say we will check you again around 7, since your water is broken we don't want to risk infection. BAck labor kicks in hardcore...I am laboring with just keith and my god my back is killing me!! I just kept saying "Fire, Fire across my back" 7PM hits finally and I am at 4. I am stunned and really dissapointed as I just remembered Ava's birth and felt like, Here we go again. stalled at 4 with back labor. I got really discouraged and started crying. Keith was SO amazing. Told me we can do this and really helped me through that moment. It was just the 2 of us and it was so special. I am rocking back and fourth, keith is holding me and telling me how amazing I am touching my face, just being so hot! At this point, I just wanted to sit. I needed a break. When I went to sit, I couldn't I felt like I was sitting on his head. I laid on my side and put my leg up and the pressure was insane. I told Keith, I think he is coming. He looked and I was pooping all over the bed! haha so hot. After the poop show, It just progressed so fast...it was about 7:20 I told the nurse, Im ready he is coming...she said we cant check you till 8. I said screw checking me, I AM READY. He is coming now, She went to get doctor. Doctor refused to let me push until i was checked and she was annoyed that I said I was ready 20 mins after last check...um because this is my fault right? Anyway, they make me wait till 7:54 to check me again and I am moaning at this point with all the pressure. Low and behold I am complete. I was honestly Stunned...with Ava took me 2 1/2 hours to get from 9 1/2 to 10! 4-10 in less then an hour! OMG At 8:04 I begin pushing, on my side, gave 3 pretty good pushes head is out...Wrapped my arms around Keith and Gave the biggest push of my life....He was born at 8:13PM . My husband was the most amazing support. Zane was born with just Keith and I in the room. We both cried so hard. Zane laid with me for about 45 mins. I nursed him, we cut the cord. They wiped him down a bit and in came Big Sister to be the first person to hold him. When she saw her brother I just burst out crying. It was the sweetest moment ever. It's actually my profile pic now. I feel so lucky and SO blessed to have 2 beautiful babies and best husband ever. It was a great birth (aside from the 7-8 BS) whatever it is what it is...I am very happy. he is nursing so good and he is SOOO squishy!
Awwww what a ,lovely story!!!!!!!!!
awwww how wonderful tink, enjoy your baby boy. can't wait to see more pics!
Great birth story Tink! I am so happy for you!
Awesome birth story Tink! Congrats again, Enjoy your little boy xxx
Tink: I am so glad you posted your birth story. Every labor has it's ups and downs and yours has a lot of ups. I love having alone time with hubby while in labor. My oldest DD wants to be there this time and we still have not decided....she is 12.
Hobber: No reason to be impressed, I just have to keep moving or else the house to look like a dump. I have to say though, I felt like I was going to die after cleaning the furniture. I have a "to do" list and I really want things nice and together when this little guy comes, otherwise when I feel up to cleaning again after baby it may be so bad that I can not get it back under control. The children all help with chores, but we have a big house.
We went to the flea market today and walked around in the heat, so DH could get a pig and I am sooo tired. I feel like it should be bed time. We have every weekend planned, so I don't get stir crazy. It just doesn't seem like it is getting so close.
WP, you got a pig at the flea market? That reminds me of the old nursery rhyme, "To market, to market, to buy a fat pig, home again, home again, jiggity jig."
I know how you feel about the house getting out of control. Mine is always a mess--maybe that is why I am always amazed at the cleaning you are doing--I hate cleaning so much!
LOL hobbers RE the pig, I was about to say the same too haha!
well memorial day came and went. i was kinda hoping to have a baby since my family was in town visiting and i had help but of course my super cervix has held up... im getting annoyed now. but good news was my baby girl turned 1!! i would like to wish a happy birthday to my baby girl London. 2010 was the year from hell for me. i never thought i could smile again after i lost my 5th daughter but then 2011 brought me Lovie and i haven't stopped smiling yet. i totally get the term "rainbow baby" now. boy or girl it didn't matter she was just what i needed to help heal my heart.
Hi ladies,
Im sure you are thinking ive been MIA due to loving on a newborn. Partially true, But Im curretnly in the hospital with an infection in my uterus.. I have never been so sick in my life. It's been a realy rough few days, Hopefully i can/get to go home tomorrow. I miss Ava so much. Atleast they let Zane come so i could nurse him.
Oh NO Tink! That happened to my mom too and it took a week of being in the hospital until she got better. Do they know why??
Tink, I am so sorry! That sounds awful. I hope you get better quickly and can be home with your family!
Girlmom, happy birthday to your DD! I know you are sick of being pregnant, but when it is all over, you will be thankful for all the extra time Michael spent in there, even though you have been miserable. Hang in there!
i.hemorrhaged after the birth. They had.to go back in a "sweep" to make sure no clotting, etc...apparently git it then since just delivered and.that area is.so sensitive. Its been a nightmare.
I hemmoraged after my son's birth, too. Scary experience. Hope they have you on good antibiotics!
so scary Tink, hope you get better soon
Girlmom - Happy Birthday to your sweet dd!
Tink - holy crap girl! Glad they let you bring Zane to nurse, take care of yourself :bighug:
Oh your birth story was great! Fwiw I pooped during 2 of my deliveries too lol
All's quiet here, just waiting for more gender/birth news :)
Tink - hope you are ok!!!!! This is what I went through last two times and really hope it doesn't happen again but it most likely will.
Ttc you had an infection? I .so scared to leave the hospital. feel like ill never feel ok. im having so much anxiety.
