*laugh* I was hoping it'd be more like 7ish or earlier...

You're only 5 minutes away, I don't blame you for waiting. JUST DON'T SNEEZE before you get to the hospital!
I keep thinking about the sneezing comment... lol.

Well... just wanted to let everyone know what was going on. I think I may try to find the mail keys and take a short walk and hope my water breaks or something.

Quote from LongTimeLurker7 :
I would suggest buying 2 of the 8pk MP Toaster Pastries and the HUGE box of Fruit Snacks for no beeping.

My kids hardly eat Fruit Snacks, but I figure I might send 1 with each kid to school one of these days, with a few packs of JJ, so their classes can have snack time.

You know what, we need to start a charity. Some kind of "couponer's give back". I have all this stuff to donate, but I don't necessarily want to just drop it off somewhere. It's a 1000x more meaningful if you can actually give it those in need. I've thought about just taking some of it down to "tent city" in Athens, but it's such a dangerous place, that I don't know how well that would work out for me. The school is trying to find out the name of the charity that gives backpacks of food to kids who don't have any besides their school lunch.

I just watched "I'm Pregnant And..." on the Discovery Health Channel. The "And.." was a couple who, like many others, because of the economy, were homeless and living in their van & tent. They kept applying for jobs, but because her husband had a problem with the law when he was in his teen's and he was considered a felon, he had a really hard time getting a job, and they didn't qualify for federal housing or help. At 8 1/2 mo. the wife was 15 lbs lighter than when she got pregnant. They were panhandling for a little money for food, and I just wanted to reach thru the TV and give them some Chef Boyardee, Juicy Juice, Fiber Plus & Special K cereal, Fruit Cups, ect...

If only we could give coupon seminars to low-income people, so they can strech that food stamp money farther.

Unfortunately, most people wouldn't take the time to learn or to keep it up.

Sorry, a little frustrated this morning on the subject. My co-worker, who is always complaining about not having any money, spent $100 Wed to get a few blue highlights put in her hair (we're talking very few), then used her Food Stamps card to buy a SOBE! I told her, get 2 and I will give you the coupons to get them for free. She said, "they are free, I'm not paying for it!" and swiped her FS card! Grrrrr



Huffing, and Puffing, and Posting! You go girl! Smilie
ON the first ... I agree , it is much more satisfying to give it directly
On the second... That kind of stuff drives me nuts... yes it's FREE no she's not paying for it we are , and where is the nutrition in that . UGHHH , don't get me started . I don't want to se e anyone go hungry but this kinda of stuff shake head

Sorry can't get my bold to work

My dad's is November 21st. Always seems like he gets shorted on having a special dinner or cake because it's on or near Turkey day.

So freakin' exciting! Do they hurt yet? Or just still kind of uncomfortable?

Also, when I complained to an OB after having one of my last kids about the fact that my water has never broken on its own, she told me that it rarely does until it's time to push. It acts as a wedge to open the cervix and doesn't usually break until the baby's head is presenting. So, don't wait *that* long laugh out loud

CRAP! That's exactly what I was afraid of. I don't really have a prayer of going early. Maybe I should hope to be 2 weeks late instead. Facepalm

No... didn't call yet. I guess the whole being sent home last week kind of makes me want to wait until I'm ready to push or something.
You should call her to give her a heads up. I have always waited until the last minute to go, I hate being in hospitals and dob't like all the long waiting and constant checking and monitoring. I don't blame ya for waiting but you should at least give them a call and tell them you think it might be it but you are walking around to make sure.

Are you singing her her song ..that should get her moving LOL


I think she'll be punctual but last minute 11:58 PM !
laugh out loud I hope she is earlier than that. It is about 11 am here so we will hope for between 2 and 4 pm, short and quick. bounce she is already halfway there!

I think that is how it is most of the time but...
With my last my water broke on it's own. I got up to pee and then thought maybe I was peeing myself a tiny bit. I then realized that the little dribble here and there was my water had broke. That was 8 am and I didn't have him until about 4 pm. I was only a 2 when I got to the hospital too, but they wanted me to stay since my water had broken.

Yeah, that's the story I always hoped for, too! It hasn't happened to anyone I know but I've read plenty of stories and seen it happen in plenty of movies and I wanted that, too laugh out loud

Oh geez - poor guy! You'd think growing up they could've done a little group party or something for all of them at least. That does suck.

Ank - .. you are amazing.. contracting, huffing, puffing, and walking.OMG Just keep moving and you are bound to have that little girl today.. I too am thinking it should be before 11 pm tonight.. Heck, afterall, you are half way there. For me, the first 5 cm were always the hardest to dilate. Seems like I always went 7 to complete pretty quickly. Just remember if you feel alot of pressure, keep those legs closed til DH gets you over to the hospitalWink Wouldn't want Ms. Mavis birthing in the car!

Ohhh... they hurt. Hurt like knives in my back and abdomen! I've also got lots of pressure and can't sit up straight without feeling weird.

Called the nurses line and left a message. They did back off to between 5-7 minutes now - but still there and painful!
