Confession (s/o It has to come out of where?!)

Mrs.tlcS · December 2009

I'm scared of pushing out a baby, too.

I've never done it before - DD's birth ended in c-section. I hope I get the opportunity to push this time, but the idea is terrifying to me.

i have to agree...its a bit scary... Embarrassed

Not related to your post. Can you explain the Skittles badge in your siggy? I have been wondering about it.

O_O : my hubby's face when I told him my vag was gonna be as big as a bagel.

O_O My face when I thought about a baby coming out of a bagel.

Squishy or not... this is terrifying. I try not to think about it, 'cause my knees turn to jelly. I keep hoping that if I just go in and do it, without thinking too much, it'll be okay...as long as there are drugs... lots of drugs...

Um, I don't understand....the baby has to come out our vag? I thought we could just all race to have a c-section. Opps, did I just say that? Must be the drugs I'm on..... :-)

My plan is just to pretend it doesn't exist. For as long as I can. I like to ignore reality.

LOL, sure... I'll try.

Over on the Nest, on Politics and Current Events the topic of welfare, food stamps, and the like comes up. Every once in awhile, someone will get crazy indignant about it - you know the posts - they happen over here sometimes, too.

"I saw someone at the grocery store with steak in their cart. STEAK! And CRABMEAT! And CANDY! And they paid for their groceries with FOOD STAMPS! And drove off in AN ESCALADE!!!"

A long (hilarious) spin-off post later, skittles kind of became the representative item to get huffy about. So, No Skittles for Poor People. Unless they pay with their own daggone money.

And in case it's not clear with how I told the story - I'm pretty far left-leaning and the badge is parody of the insane outrage some people show toward people who are down on their luck and might require some assistance.

From a second timer:

I was TERRIFIED of labor. My doctor said that I was psyching myself out and that's possibly why I didn't go into labor on my own. Once you get going, though, your body just kicks in and it happens.

I can't explain it because it's one of those weird things you have to live through before you understand it. But you will do it. And you will feel so proud of yourself afterwards.

Just don't forget to breathe..... Wink

Your cervix gets as big as a bagel. Your vag will stretch even further Surprise

From a self-proclaimed filthy left-wing hippie, I now officially your badge. And maybe you too. As long as you don't post scary labor posts anymore. O_O

I second this. Yes

Though, I do have to say, I saw a lady buy $150 worth of groceries on a food stamps card today (not sure WHAT she bought, and I really don't care). And that card she pulled out of a D&B wallet. Which came from a D&B purse. They could have been gifts. Or, she could have recently been laid off. But, I won't lie. I pouted for at least 20 minutes, lol.

Okay, makes total sense. I occasionally will see similar posts over on MM on the Nest. It's pretty insane how worked up people can get over that topic.

I was scared of the pushing too, but when I got to that point with DD I wanted nothing more in the world than to PUSH and get her out. Plus, it is the BEST feeling in the world when your LO comes out, I just remember I couldn't get over how great that felt. LOL sounds weird now though.

Well, now that you mention it, it's like taking the world's biggest poop. You have so much pressure and it's so uncomfortable and as soon as you pop the head and shoulders out LO just slides on out and it is the BIGGEST relief ever.

Lance&Becca · December 2009

I have to say....I gave birth one year ago tomorrow (Yay for 1st Birthday!!!) and all the unpleasent memories from the pushing stage have already faded quite a lot. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought since I got an epi.
