Calling All Women of Strength!!!

[mommyin10]

A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.

A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.

A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.

A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.

A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.

A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

I also used Playtex Ventaires.  That is what my son liked the best.  He never liked the Avent kind.  My appt. went well.  I guess I have to wait to see my ob to find out if everything looks ok but it seemed to.  It took a lot longer than we though and since we had our 3 year old with us it was stressful.  She did say that he was very active and I got a few pictures to take home.  She said he is 12 oz...I don't know if that is good or not.  I'll find out next week.

I haven't been on much since I have been sick since Sunday...some kind of a stomach bug.  It's the only time I have thrown up during the pregnancy and I couldn't eat much of anything for four days.  I am better but my stomach still hurts a lot after I eat sometimes so I am not sure what is wrong.

dnikki- I can't wait to see the pictures of your baby when she is born...we will see pictures, right?  I hope you don't have to go to another appt too:)

mommin10-  Heck no I can't see anything.  I make DH help me.  It almost ALWAYS turns into a comedy act.  Then he'll tease me all day about it being crooked.  But it's got to be better than nothing so I guess I'll go with that.  

Enjoy you day out.

leighanne: That's too funny! :) But why would they need to shave you for a c-section?!  I've never heard that before.

Sammy_J: Yay! Trigger today :) Keep us posted on how you're doing & best wishes tomorrow :)

ad_06: When is your next appt?

[leighanne143]

mommy and bumble- you 2 are funny.  I was crazy about making sure i was good "down there"  even though i couldnt see it, i made sure i shaved a little each day because my thought was if i do a little each day, by the end of the week i would have hit all the important parts to keep it maintained.  

it makes me think of my c section night- the nurse came in and told me she had to clip me and i didnt know what she meant and she looks at me and says "shave you for surgery."  so when she went to check it out, she smiled and said "wow you did a good job, i dont even have to do it."  she then told me some stories about others that came in that were not prepared like i was.  she was even more shocked that i was prepared because my c section was not planned, it was emergency and she could not believe i maintained like that daily.  but like i said, if you do a little each day it pays off.

sbumblebeeo: That's funny! Can you still shave easily? I can't even see that area or get to it, but I still shave by looking in the mirror! dh tells me no one's gonna care & imagine what the doctors have seen over the years! :) I still MUST shave! haha :) I'm like you, too. My hospital is the closest to my house, but I'm afraid I'll go into labor on my ob's day off. I want her there ;)  

ad_06: That's great you don't have GD! I'm so happy for you :) No, nothing's wrong if your #s are normal when you eat certain things. It just means your levels aren't out of whack :) Good for you! I'm sure we're all the same. I can't wait til my appt tomorrow so I can see my babies, hear their heartbeats & be reassured that they're ok :)

[sbumblebeeo]

mommin10-  LOL!  That is funny b/c I am paranoid about not... how do you say this... not being shaved befor going in.  LOL  I don't want to be all over grown when eveyone is taking a peek.  My mom swears I won't care but it sounds embarrasing.  The whole ambulance thing won't work for me b/c they'll take you to the nearest hospital and I want my doctor and my hospital which is an hour drive.  I told my mom that it isn't a cab service and if I have to i'll drive myself to DH's work then he can finish the drive to the hospital.  Yes.  I am hard headed enough to try that.  Not that I have much faith in my ability to do so....  I am VERY independant.
