Definitely opting for an epidural. This past week has been so painful, I just want some kind of relief.
I'm scared of getting one, but I really don't think with as big as he is now, that id make it through without asking for one.
I'm a huge baby with needles but I knew I'd need one too since I'm tiny. I barely even felt the epidural when it got set up and the pain went away within fifteen minutes or so. You'll be fine. :)
Its so good to hear a positive epidural story.
It seems like everyone is trying to scare me into not getting an epidural by telling me their horrifying stories.
I hate it when people do that. Not every epidural has to be some horror story. It's definitely not as bad as people make it sound. You just sit on the edge of your bed, they sanitize your back, and then they put the epidural catheter in. It seriously made the worst pain in my life go away the entire time. Whenever someone says it "stopped working" they just mean they could feel the pressure of pushing out the kid and for some people it hurts.
Ever since the sun set he has NOT quit moving. That was well over an hour ago.
Everyone send prayers, vibes, and star fish wishes that we get a moon baby!
I made a stupid mistake.
I gave the money that I raised to help with our mom's funeral fund, the extra would be used to care for her dogs, to my brother (the one who is supposed to take care of Roxy) and I'm pretty sure that he spent it during one of his schizophrenic episodes. Now we're coming up to the time we need to pay the boarder and he's claiming no knowledge of having the money at all
Hugs to everyone!
And holy crap Shimmer!!!

I'm scared to go anywhere because there is a giant glaring chance that I won't come back home. I'm terrified I'll be shot doing something as simple as walking to the store or driving somewhere. I'm so scared of going out that my fiance and I sat down to talk about if it was worth the possibility of me dying to go to Mermania. I really want to go, but this threat is too much for us to ignore.
This saddens me so much, I can't even begin to tell you! I want to reassure you that the odds are astronomical, but in this crazy world, there are no guarantees and that breaks my heart! :sad eyes:Quote:

Backstory: I had a lady from a reputable company contact me and offer to make me a silicone tail for just to cost of materials, as she wanted to help support my new business venture for disabled kids. So I scrambled getting the money, and even sold my wedding dress (Something I vowed I would never do), but I was determined to get this new venture off the ground! I sent her the money and eagerly awaited news. A few days later I recieved a sketch and loved it, sent in my measurements and again waited. This is where things started going a little sour. I was given multiple excuses why my tail wasn't ready, or why I wasn't getting any pics of it after being promised. Days turned into weeks and finally I was told my tail was ready and would be delivered to me in Jamaica, as the company was going to be there for a special week of shooting. I was beyond excited at the thought of swimming in the ocean with it!
So finally the week comes where I am suppose to get my tail, but the owner starts to give excuses of why it s taking so long, etc. I finally get a response on the day/time to meet up and I arrange my ride as I have to travel over 2 hours to where she is. So this morning, I try to contact her to let her know I am on my way, only to be told that she doesn't have my tail, and gives me some bullshit excuses about customs. Then she just refunds my money, doesn't apologize and just basically writes me off. So I have just spent the past hour or so in a puddle of tears. I am so upset and frustrated.
I was promised a tail, and now believe she never even made it to begin with and just lied to me the entire time. As a person with Autism, things like this hugely impact me. I put everything I had into getting this tail, and now because of all this, I have no tail, my wedding dress is gone forever, and I cannot start my business. I have had to cancel all my bookings back in Canada, and now have to figure out how I am going to afford to buy a new tail. Not to mention my trust in people has completely gone...I am beyond devastated.
I don't know how long it's been since you paid for it but maybe you could try disputing the charges.
The fact that you even have to worry about this makes me sick to my stomach. 😞
Took a bath to relax and maybe get actual labor started, actually have heard a LOT of good things about drinking Apple cider encouraging labor. Asked my doctor, and he said to try it.
My lower back has been throbbing, and my feet look like they belong to a hairless Bigfoot.
Besides back pain, today I don't feel very labor-y? I'm getting so frustrated. Due date is Saturday.
Eat spicy things. Thats a remedy we use to induce labor. Spicy and sour. And dancing or bouncing on a medicine ballQuote:

And holy shit Momo. Hug. More hug. A kid at my high school got shot in the head a few weeks ago. So I greatly sympathise.
Also, minor personal bitch: a few weeks into college, have not managed to swim or sing at all. The former due to lack of beach/pool time. The later due to respecting my roommate.
I feel like my soul is dying.
I did join my school's Quidditch team. That helps.

I hope everything goes smoothly for you, Shimmer!
I sat a science test last week and some dumb ass came into my Science teacher's class and stole the answers. My teacher found out who did it and they sent the stolen answers to other students. It was this boy who I think is an idiot but I'd never think he'd do something that stupid. All of us have to suffer because we get percentages taken off our tests. I still did pass though and my friend said to me that she was relying on this test because it had the largest percentage in our grade. There's always that idiot who has to ruin everything. My rant for the day.

Thank you Jay!
At midnight I got up to some sharp pains, went to the bathroom, went back to bed.
Got up 4 other times throughout the night 28th pains. And then felt like I was going to puke so I drank a sprite.
The pains have just gotten worse since midnight.
Any minute my husband will be home and we will get ready and go to the hospital to see if I'm in labor, if it's false labor, what is going on, I'm expecting them wanting to induce me seeing as how my dd is Saturday.
At least, I hope they want to induce me. I'm sure Little Bean is tired of being cramped and I'm tired of being in pain and ready for him to be here already.
Idk how your hospital is but mine doesn't induce unless the mother is at least a week past due or something along those lines. With how long you've been going through false labor you might give birth Friday or Saturday. Just hang in a little longer and then you can ground your son for making you wait so long.
