My profile

I am 30 years old with two wonderful children ages 7 and 5 years old and one gorgeous stepson age 12 years old. This is my and Ronnie's first pregnancy and we are very excited. With it being a repeat c-section the delivery date will be no later than September 9th, so I get to skip a few days. : )

It is so wonderful to be in a good place in my life. After having left an abusive relationship and standing on my own 2 feet for a while, it is really nice to simply live and love. . . .no drama. . . .no screaming, ranting or raving, no sleeping w/ eyes open out of fear. . . .being able to lay in peace at night. . . .thank you, Lord.

No matter what this life brings us we can make it through. Often times we don't know how strong we are until the time comes that we need that strength. Hard times do not make character, they reveal it. And, after the years of struggles and trying times the kiddos and I went through . . . I realize how strong I am and how capable I am. . .and I will do my best to raise my children to walk tall, hold their heads high, do not let anyone use you or abuse you and trust in the Lord. . .always.

The Lord never said all of our roads would be easy. . . but He did promise we would never have to walk them alone.

My life is blessed. . . with good times and bad times. . .all of them serving their purpose to get me to where I am today . . .my cup runs over. . .and the Lord surely did bless this once broken road. I love you Ronnie and my kiddos.

Message to all This may be interesting to some of you. Seema`s email is seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com

Hi there,

I work for a television production company based in the UK . We are currently making a documentary for ITV1 exploring the issues surrounding pregnancy and eating disorders. The film will be a thoughtful and insightful look into this extremely sensitive subject.

We’re in the research stage of our production and very keen to chat to women who are, or have been, pregnant whilst having an eating disorder.

If you’re interested in having a chat or finding out more about our documentary, it would be really great to hear from you. All communication would be in complete confidence.

You can contact me on: seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com

Hi! Sorry for the novel. I'm just sending this to all of you, because I have too many messages to respond to individually! LOL...you girls are the best. Thank you for all of your kind words and your love and friendship. Yes, baby Jude and I are home now. Our first night went very well. He is taking the Soothies bottles very well, and wakes to eat every 3-4 hours. My milk came in

WHOA!!! LOL...get ice packs on those babies! I'm not nursing at all this time, so I need it to go away. And the most exciting thing for me is that I was able to have a BM!!!!! LOL...you have no idea how much I dread that after pushing a watermelon out.

I am feeling OK, but I am still really in need of prayer. I didn't put it up in my birth story, but I had a terrible scare after Jude was born. About an hour after delivering I got up to go to the bathroom and started hemmorhaging. Blood clots were everywhere! I sat on the toilet and asked the nurse if that was normal. She RAN out of the room and when she came back she handed me 6 Cytotec pills...and THAT scared the crap out of me. Cytotec is used for abortions, and causes extreme contractions of the uterus, often leading to uterine rupture and can cause death. I was so scared to take 6 of those pills but I felt like I had no choice. It was either take them, or sit there and bleed to death. So, I quickly took them and prayed that God would protect me from the possible effects. Within seconds I felt funny. The nurse looked at me and asked if I was OK, I said I didn't feel good. All of a sudden everything went white and I went down. I could hear voices all around me, they sounded far away, and I was unable to respond. They kept asking me questions and I could not move. I felt paralyzed. I wanted to close my eyes so badly but they kept telling me not to. I just kept hearing, "she has no color", "her eyes are glazed", "she is burning up". Thye kept saying "Angie, Angie, Angie...come on", but I could not move. I knew I had gone in to shock
and was likely dying. Finally I heard a nurse say "Anige, don't look down, look up at the ceiling." So, I forced my eyes to look up and that is when they carried me to my bed. They took my BP and it was skyhigh. They were staring at me like I was already gone! But
slowly, I began to cool off and respond to their questions. One nurse said "You are my hero. How did you come back from that?" And another said, "Don't ever do that again." While all of this was happening, my husband was holding baby Jude and crying his eyes out. He was sure he was watching me die. For the next 2 hours I laid in bed shaking like a madwoman as the Cytotec did it's job of contracting my uterus to stop the bleeding. They told Matt he was not allowed to leave me that night (he wouldn't have after that anyway). Throughout the night the nurses kept pushing on my belly and blood would gush out. They never told me how worried they were, but I could see it in their eyes. By God's grace I came around and the bleeding is much less now. I did have another scare last night, though. I had fallen asleep but all of a sudden felt so terrible that I jerked on my husband to wake him. My heart was racing uncontrollably, my back was throbbing, I felt so nauseous and like I was going to go unconscious again. The room was spinning and I was so terrified of having internal bleeding. He got me a cold cloth and sat me down in a cool room until it passed. My back still hurts awfully. I'm not sure if it's from pushing the baby out or if it's uterine related. They said that the reason I had hemmorhaged was because of the fast labor and delivery. I went from 3 cm to pushing him out in just 2 hours. The pitocin made everything go too fast and hard, and it cause a great trauma to my uterus that it could not recover from. But, I am doing OK and we are enjoying our new baby. It sure is a miracle that it didn't turn out for the worse. Thank you all for your love and prayers. As many of you are preparing to have your babies,
remember that it is still so dangerous. Even after having 4 previously I could never have anticipated the trouble I would have this time. I can't wait until you all have birth stories to share so we can chit chat about our babies. I am changing my name...

Love, Judesmama

Judesmama - Sunday, 7 September
Do you guys think I should change my name now to Judesmama????? Would it be too confusing?
