UGH.
You know, if they were actually doing something for me, I'd be quite happy right now. I'd be elated. But I just know that's not the case, and it ticks me off! It just feels like my body is playing one big game with me. It's pretty aggravating to log on here everyday and see 3-8 babies were born last night/today, and yet here I am still having fricking contractions and NO baby yet. Why? Why is this funny?
Don't get me wrong, I'm super excited to see all the baby announcements and all the happy new mothers, but I'm super, super jealous too. I know 'my time will come' and blah blah blah, but that doesn't make me feel very good at all. The next person to say that to me will get a punch in the vag. And the next family member to call me up begging me to have a baby TODAY will be electrocuted through their phone. I'll find a way.
And DH wonders why I'm so grumpy. >:{
Re: MOFO contractions!! **&^&%*#(&%*(#(#$*!!!!
I have the opposite problem. I have NOTHING going on. ZERO. No contractions, no MP, the baby still hasn't dropped yet.... I would love for something to happen so that I know my body and baby realize the time is coming.
Tiff, I feel for you. After having contractions all week this week, some of them quite close and quite intense, I can't imagine what you're going through being in the situation you have been for the past couple of weeks!
I'm tired of the incessant "how are you feeling?" texts/calls/messages...
Tiffany I am so sorry that you are still waiting to meet your little girl. I went for quite a long drive yesterday and on the way home I was glad that I had asked my mom to go with me, I started feeling really sore in my back and stomach (contractions were a bit stronger) so we stopped but then I vomited and thought that maybe my body was progressing, so my mom continued the drive and I just continued to get sick and have contractions that were a lot closer than any of them before. Eventually the pressure down there got really intense and then it made me scream/cry because it hurt so bad for about 2 min, from my description my mom thinks I dilated a bit more (one can only hope), and now I am back to just the regular stuff my body has been doing to me for the last 2 1/2 weeks. I really will find it kind of ironic if both of our LOs decide to arrive on the same day.
I really hope your contractions pick up and start doing something for you and that you get some relief soon by meeting your precious little girl!
"When you can't walk anymore, go to Labor and Delivery."
I could go in, but because I'm not hurting they will turn me around and tell me to take a 2 hour hike and come back. If I'm still walking, they totally will send me away. Hospital policy to to admit 3cm and above, but they cheat all the time and if you're not dying, will turn you away.
That would be pretty funny, Etta- you'd know it was me down the hall when you heard me calling the nurses Douchebags.
I am so sorry.
I say you can be as grumpy as you want to be.
Erin
I'm so sorry. I feel your pain, sort of...
I wish we could telepathically send what we're feeling to anyone we wish (say... the DR, DH, or relatives...)
If I could give ONE day of this to my DH, he'd be a grumpy little fecker too!
I think if we could give them anything we go through for a day they'd he whiny little babies! Like having the urge to pee after you just went, or the fact that your feet hurt but you haven't even stood on them for hours. Or all the pelvic pressure etc... haha
We need to get more credit!!
