Had my little man today! 7lbs 6oz of pure joy :)
I was induced at 1:00 am due to high blood pressure and history of HELLP with my daughter. They used cervidal... Around 8 this morning my nurse checked and it had fallen out of place so she had to push it back in. By 10:00 I was having consistent contractions that were tolerable. By 11:30 the contractions were coming more frequently and the pain was awful...However, I was still only 1cm dilated. By 12:30 I couldn't take it anymore and told them I needed to push. She checked me and I was only at 3 cm. By 1:00 I was at 5-6 cm and by 1:30 I had my baby... The doctor didn't have time to get to the hospital because I had progressed so quickly. I'm proud to say I was able to make it without and epidural. Even if I wanted one I wouldn't have had time to get one with how fast he came. So glad to finally have my sweet, healthy boy :)
@cartergirl08, Great Job and congrats momma! I also was given Cervidil with my last pregnancy and my contractions where constant and irregular so I gave in and asked for my first epidural ever!!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
