    [Open] He's Here!!

    Thank you!! His level now is 16.2 instead of 16.7, but with it being so high I'm worried they'll want him back in the hospital if it doesn't go down quick enough. :( But they haven't said anything about that. lol Speaking of eating... he downed 4.5 oz of breast milk this morning!! He's getting...

    [Open] He's Here!!

    Okay, now for the full story. ;) They started the pitocin at 4:30AM and I fell asleep soon after and slept for a good looong while. The nurses kept waking me to ask if I was ready for pain meds, I was close enough to having a seizure I wasn't allowed to have a natural birth. I ended up not...

    [Open] He's Here!!

    Remi was born on Wednesday June 20th, so they did induce me. :) They induced at 4:30AM and he was born at 3:10PM. I haven't breastfed him yet cause he's been on oxygen from being born early, but I've been pumpin' away. :thumbsup: He weighed 8 pounds 8 ounces and was 22.5 inches long, so he's a...

    I was til about a week ago. lol :) Now I'm ready to be done. I go back to the Dr tomorrow and he'll decide what needs to be done as far as this week goes. So, if I don't give an update tomorrow, I'm back in the hospital, under supervision, awaiting induction. :thumbsup:

    [Open] Update: Prenatal Visit

    :wave: Well, I'm home from the hospital!! :clap: The Dr put me in cause my BP was 156/98 on Friday and I had retained a gallon of fluid in 11 days. So even though my protein was 166, he said it looked like my body was trying to let my PIH turn into pre-e. My BP stayed up while I was in the...

    Hubby wanted him to be, so I agreed since I didn't have a reasonable argument against it.

    Imaginary beings like Santa Claus

    We plan on telling our kids about Saint Nicholas and how he gave to the poor, but I'm really not a big fan of Sant Claus. :shrug: We'll probably do the tooth fairy, but that's just because it's amusing. My most memorable Easter as a kid was when I was 7 and was hunting Easter eggs with my...

    I'm fed up -- martyrs and judging in mommyhood

    lol It's amazing what people will find to pick at. :) If it works for one person, that's fine, but nothing is going to work for everyone. Sadly, there are people who are raising children and don't know this. :eek:

    [Open] Finding a Pediatrician

    :doh: I didn't even think of this being an issue. I don't want my son vaccinated, either, I don't trust it. Unfortunately, we only have two offices here, so I guess someone's just gonna have to deal with me and my eccentricacies (is that a word? :confused: ). lol
