1-12-10 ROCKED

Guess what the little turd did come early. The day after my last post in fact. I was babysitting my niece and I guess running after her and Carmen did it. After she left I was trying to just lay around and relax and not cry but I was so miserable. I was sitting in the recliner thinking I WANT TO HAVE THIS BABY TODAY. Then I started having (TMI ALERT) the squirts and throwing up and I thought "hmm maybe all these contractions are doing something" I wasn't timing them because I didn't want to get my hopes up. I called Sean at work and told him " Um I think I am in labor" I told him not to leave work early or anything because labor takes forever but we called his mom so she could stay with Carmen and went in to the hospital. Sure enough I was 4 and a half centimeters. I was halfway there! If I wasn't so afraid of blowing out my vagina I could have done it on my own. And they said we are going to get him out within the hour.......and they did.


He is so cute! He was 9.2 but I think that if he hadn't peed on the Dr. and 2 nurses before they weighed him he would have at least been the same as his sister. He looks like a Melin boy. Blue eyes and all. He is so good and calm but he does have a temper. He loves to snuggle. He sleeps GREAT (for now). His head was 15 centimeters. I really wouldn't have been able to use my vagina again after pushing that out. I am really blessed. He is healthy and sweet and Carmen loves him. I cannot believe that I have 2 amazingly well behaved children (so far) but I am sure they will make up for it when they turn 12. Only 11 good more years to go.


I got to hold him first. In the OR they gave him to me first and then they gave him to me in recovery. I got to feed him in the first hour after he was born. This hospital experience was completely different than Carmens. My nurses were wonderful. And they all loved my baby. The only problems I has were 1. I couldn't sleep at all the first night so I was really uncomfortable the next day and 2. the narcotic they gave me made me SO SLEEPY I had to stop taking it. But I am in so much less pain this time that it didn't really matter. I could keep going for days but I am going to sit on the couch and stare at my baby for a while.

My Vagina Has A Cold

Or a sinus infection. Thats what it feels like anyway. I have so much snot coming out of there. And I am getting a cold or sinus infection in my nose and throat too. I am so pathetic. I cried when Sean had to leave for work today. I have been getting more and more depressed the last 2 weeks. I am hoping that it means that I will go into labor on my own sooner than the 21 which is when the CS is scheduled for. Today I had a size scan for the baby and he is so big he is off the charts. They couldn't tell me what weight range he was in. I am so glad I am not going to blow out my vagina with him. I don't think I could ever use it again. Only 10 days until I get to hold the little bastard. I cannot wait. Why do I call the kid a bastard you ask? Because he is trying to punch his way out all day long. And he LOVES to scare me into thinking he has died in there. Just when I can't take it anymore and am about to call my Dr, Kick Kick. Haha Mommy just kidding. I am still here and alive. He wont move for hours and then all the sudden he wants out NOW. I think this is probably part of my hormonal surges right now. I am going nuts.

Everything all at once

I am so excited! I am starting to lose my mucus plug! I know its GROSS. It looks like I blew my nose through my vagina every time I pee. I love telling Sean stuff like that because he ALWAYS gives me way too much information. He makes me want to gag all the time. Anyway.....I have been so busy and tired the last 4 weeks. I had to go to labor and delivery one night because I was having regular contractions and they were getting more painful. I got a shot of trabutaline and a narcotic. It felt WEIRD. The trabutline makes you super shaky and makes your heart race. The narcotic made me so sleepy. So my heart was racing and I could barely keep my eyes open. It was odd.


Carmen is sick AGAIN. It seems like every other week she gets sick. She threw up ALL OVER EVERYTHING last night. Sean the living room floor the kitchen floor my pillow.... it was so sad. And she is feeling better today but she is still pretty pathetic. And wont stop complaining. She kept us up ALL night.


We sold Seans car yesterday and I fell so much better and less trashy already.


I am so huge (well the baby really I have only gained 5 pounds so far) I should win an award of some kind. I really look like I am having twins. And I have a week and a half to go. We are having the CS on the 21 of jan. I am so excited and happy. I can't wait to see the little guy and hold him.


I am running out of steam because of not getting any sleep last night so Later
