Hi Ladies! My goodness we have an action-packed May Mommies thread! I was gone 4 days and it feels like I missed a month!!!

Vanessa- We thought something was up when we hadn't heard from you!!! Congratulations on your sweet little girl! I am just dying to see pictures and to hear your birth story. Thanks for the FYI- we'll be DTD a lot in a few weeks to see if we can get things going!! I hope you and Amaya (beautiful name!) are doing good!

Nikkiraz- Congrats on the arrival of Ty Peter!!! Were you waiting until birth to find out the sex or do I have that wrong? Anyway, congrats on your precious little guy and can't wait to see photos and hear all about him and how you're doing!!!

Karen- The new thread is adorable...thank you for taking the initiative to start a new one as I'm sure Corgi is really busy right now! I am so shocked that you haven't had your baby yet and on top of it, have had so many trips to L&D! That is just too much to deal with- I can understand why you are feeling like you don't want another! Did the doctor say why your body is having so many hard contractions when you're no where near being ready to deliver? I naively thought that you really only get that many when you're close to having your baby??? Anyway, hope you and Tiana have a fun day today!

Heather- Just had to say I'm so sorry you went through that huge ordeal- you're the other mommy I thought would be rocking her baby to sleep this weekend! Gosh- but what you went through sounds just awful! To have all that pain and not be able to give birth would really upset me! I hope your induction in a few days goes a lot better and much more smoothly! You don't need to be put through that again!!

Nicole- I know what you mean about shaving- I tried this weekend for my sister's wedding and it was so difficult! I finally just had to go by "feel" and if it felt hairy, I slowly and carefully ran a razor over it! haha I hope your appointment goes well today and that your tests come back ok! =) Oh, and thanks for the update on Nikki!

Tabby- I LOVE that new photo of your little girl where she's sleeping! That is just so sweet and she looks so peaceful- what a cutie! You sound like you're really enjoying her and it makes me more anxious to have my little girl despite my fear of labor/delivery! She sounds like she's just wonderful. How is your son/step-son doing with her?

Jesi- I understand why you don't want to go for the vbac! Let us know when your c-section is scheduled for! How fun to have a due date for your baby all picked out!

Creme- CONGRATS on 36 weeks- after having DD early, it must be such a relief to be cooking your little guy for so long! Be sure to give us a "hello, I'm here" each day so we know you haven't gone into labor yet!!

Tiffany- I'm still a few weeks behind you, so I haven't gotten those comments yet, but I'm sure you're getting lots! Hope it happens soon for you!

Lea- Thank you for sharing your birth story and all I can say is, "WOW!" You went through a lot and I cannot believe the nurses just kept brushing you off when you've have three other kids!! Taught them a lesson they'll probably never forget! Glad you and little speedy are doing good!

Sounds like he's letting Mommy get some rest- what a great little guy! how is your youngest son dealing with having to share Mommy? Oh, and thank you for all the practical advice...I'll definitely make sure my birth plan clearly states that I want to walk around and move as much as possible!

Jess1985- Congrats on your sweet bundle of joy- boy or a girl? Lots of luck to ya!

Sandra- It always shocks and fascinates me that you have 52 neices and nephews...are some of them "step-neices/nephews" or all blood-relatives? So nuts! I can understand why you don't want everyone there...they will all be so happy that you and your DH finally get to hold your little one in your arms that they'll probably all crowd the hospital halls!! How neat to have that kind of support, but probably too overwhelming in the beginning. I am also trying to psych myself up for "natural" childbirth because I'm not 100% on getting the epi and I have also heard that it may not work. Have you found that book by Sears to be helpful? If so, I may go out and get it, too. I don't want pitocin either because I've also heard the contractions are awful...like you've forced your body into doing something it clearly was not ready for. No thanks, and if I have to use it, then that epidural had better work!!!!

***************************

Got back from my sister's wedding and it was so nice...everything has gone okay with her so far so I'm so thankful and really appreciate all your positive thoughts and prayers! It was just a nice celebration of their love and was really about their union and she looked just beautiful! We got to take our dog out and play in the snow with him, which he loved since he's half malamute! It was just a fun, relaxing weekend in the snowy mountains, but as most of you understand, it was tough to sleep in another bed so I crashed last night! Slept good in my bed last night!!!

Funny thing happend though- my tummy really got in knots at the wedding after dancing for a while. I started to cramp up just on the top of my uterus...that's the best way to describe it. I had more tummy pains the next day too when we went hiking in the snow. Not as bad as when I was dancing though. Everyone kept telling me I look like I've dropped and the baby is really low, but none of them have really seen me since we don't live near our family and they don't realize my belly has ALWAYS been this low! haha My brother and I were trying to swing dance on the dance floor and we did these twirls and my Aunts kept yelling, "don't twirl too much- that baby is going to drop out!!!" Kinda funny.

Well, sorry that I didn't get to all my personals, but I'll try and get on here later and post! Hope you gals are doing good and congrats on all the new babies and on those that sound like they'll be born this week!
