Bloody show last night. Huge chunk of my mucus plug. Jason is now threatening to call the doctor/take me to the hospital.

I am not having the baby on Maddy's birthday. I refuse.

Nonsense, both my children will like chocolate cake or they will be returned immediately.

did you have a section with MAddy, and they just want to do a repeat? Is there any medical reason you need to have a repeat?

You probably should go to the dr, and see what they say. there is a chance labor will last the next 12 hours, and he doesn't come until tomorrow. but you don't want to keep ignoring this and birth in the bathroom! especially if you are at risk.

if you go to the dr, they may want to send you to the hospital, and well, if you want to be stubborn, you can always just go home :) but I think its better to know for sure what's going on!

If you really are too high risk to vbac, its better to be safe than sorry, right?

Maddie was an emergency c-section. We chose the repeat. My doctor didn't really push either way but I'll admit that the fear of the unknown scared me more than anything else plus I'll be tying my tubes and it was all just easier to do at once. So that's scheduled for Wednesday. I could logically go into labor on my own and give birth on the kitchen floor if I really wanted though! lol

I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning which is why I have been avoiding going today. If anything picks up (I'm timing the contractions) or gets worse then I'll call but bloody show is one of those normal it just happens things right? I never made it this far before! lol.

well, if its not a do or die section, and you really want to wait, then I kind of think go for it

I've had cervical checks every Monday for like.. two weeks. No dilating or anything beyond the original preterm labor stuff. But that wasn't a lot to begin with. I'll bet anything there's more now though.

I have no idea how anyone goes through this naturally. Whatever is going on in there, hurts like a son of a bitch!

Kurt keeps joking that Edan will be born on Ellie's birthday. I dont find it funny at all.

[iamsuperkate]

when does the due date compare to her birthday?

also, was it weird to name her elise then call her ellie? did you start that right away or eventually fall into it?

[pinkgerbil]

He is due three days after her brithday, and earlier in the pregnancy I was having pre-term labor. Everything has settled down now, but I will cry if they have the same birthday. Its not fair to them!

We kind of fell into calling her Ellie, it jut sort of happned one day when we weren't looking. :P

[iamsuperkate]

we are thinking Elisabeth if this is a girl, but I don't really want a liz or beth, if she becomes anything, I want it to be Ellie. but don't want her to never hear Elisabeth!

Happy Birthday Maddy!

I hope you can hold him in another 9 or so hours :)
