  • @Jessieann1020‌ I was just thinking today how much I miss the nurses we had in the nicu. They were my best support system. And I'm almost a little jealous of the mamas experiencing birth for the first time, I feel like I'm forgetting what it was like already.
  • Ok. I think I am a total weirdo. I said before I got a little sad when I used the last Tucks Pad that I got from the hospital. Well tonight I was kind of down and wasn't sure why then I realized I put away my post partum supplies like dermoblast and the stuff the hospital gave me this evening since I am not really using them any more. I get sad that I am not pregnant any more and it also makes me sad that our birth and hospital experience is over. I love my little guy but I miss all the excitement of planning for him. We will have more babies one day but I feel like it will never be the same. I can't be the only one who feels like this?

    I've totally been feeling this way. I had a tubal and we are 100% done, but it's still bitter sweet knowing I will never be doing this again.

    FFWC- I'm jealous of all you with good pain killers. I had a csection, only stayed 2 days and was sent home with my dr telling me to take Tylenol. I hate him

    Holy shit, i hate him for you!!

    I'm allergic to morphine and Percocet, so maybe that's why? But Good God Man there's lots of painkillers I can take!!

    No kidding! I came home with Motrin and Norco. I really miss that morphine pump though ;)

    This is my 3rd LO and I'm feeling the same way. There is so much excitement and build up to the big day that its kind of bitter sweet when its all over. It made me a little sad when I made my 6 week appointment. My pregnancy went by really slow this time around and I'm very happy to have my little man on the outside but I still feel the same way.

  • Ok, we were supposed to go in at midnight for induction... Called at 10:30 and they took phone number and said they'd called us. It's been 3 hours and nadda. Do I call again and make them hate me before I even get there?? I need to know if I should go to sleep or what tonight...
  • Congrats @Vinny424‌ what a beautiful baby!

    @KendraColeslaw‌ I can't wait for pictures!!!! Congrats!

    That's tough as balls Katie. I forgot to fill my RX the first day and I laid in bed shivering from the pain after a trip to the bathroom

    Oh my gosh, I am so sorry! That is absolutely miserable!!

    This. My bf had to take me to the bathroom that night. I was in too much pain to nurse so we ended up giving formula the whole night.
  • Is it weird that I didn't need any pain meds for my c-section? My doc wanted to send me home with Norco but I declined it.

    I barely took any of mine! I use it for headaches!

  • I stupidly had half a glass of soda at like 10:30 and am now paying for it with a wide awake baby. What was I thinking!?!?
  • @ColleenSwerb‌ errands trump internal every time :-) Experienced my first epic battle of wills with an overtired baby last night. She cluster fed from 4:30-8:30, then B cried, screamed and head butted me until 3 AM. I feel like a terrible mommy because I couldn't figure out what was wrong. DH even tried giving a pacifier, which stopped the tears, but kept her awake and now our already poor latching seems worse. She has slept well since 3, but the hourly snacking is killing me.
  • Why do I have no appetite anymore? It's so hard to eat. I don't even want sweets anymore.
  • Thanks @ColleenSwerb‌ that's good to know. I love my caffeine! Maybe it was our first rain/hail storm of the season that caused us to have a bad night.

    This is me too. I only took normal ibuprofen for the first few days. I have some Tylenol with codine, but I didn't bother taking it. I was the same at the hospital too - they offered narcotics but I stuck with the Motrin.

    Still laboring as of late last night. I'm hoping her body is letting her get some naps in.
    Poor girl! Longest pregnancy followed by long labor!
    No kidding! Pregnancy has not been kind to her. She deserves a nap followed by cake followed by another nap. :(

  • White spit up through the nose is ok right? Dd just did it twice and I'm totally nervous. We have an appt this afternoon but do I need to call? Help a nervous FTM!
  • Well, I went ahead and got the internal. As I figured, pretty much no progress. Couldn't even do a sweep. Oh well. I'm taking it better this time vs last because I had pretty much resigned myself to the RCS, or at east being late if I did go into labor. Went to Walmart and got some last minute stuff. I bought a bright green plaid robe and nightgown, and a new pair of pj pants. Cuz I felt like it. Lol!
    This is me. I was still between a 1 and a 2 and my OB would have done the sweep if I was at a 3. I know dilation doesn't really mean anything when you're not in labor so as far as that goes it is what it is; I was just disappointed in not being able to do the sweep!
