I have been married for four and a half years. My husband is a wonderful man. We have a four year old, named Dustin. We have been trying to get pregnant for about 5 months (feels longer). I had a miscarriage in Oct. of 2006. So we quit trying for about a year. When I found out I was pregnant I did not believe it until I seen the heart beat, and of course I cried. I have been a stay at home mom for about 8 months and I love every second of it. I am hoping to meet a lot of new people on here and congrats to everyone!!!

Hi! Aww! Sorry to hear girl! Hope your feeling okay! Take it easy, no panic, i understand if you can't write for a while. I'm still pregnant, argh! But i hope i won't be much longer, really tired of being pregnant by now. Anyway, take care and let me know how everything is when you feel better! Hugs!

yes jennifer had her baby girl by c section the baby weighs 5lbs 11oz 19 inches sorry this is her husband

Hi! I just got back from seeing my midwife and we canceled my c-section. I feel so relieved! I talked to her and she said that since i don't want to have a c-section and i have a very good birth canal i should definitely try to give birth naturally and if something doesn't go as supposed, then i could still have a c-section. Phew! I like her! :) So, have you gone into labor yet? ;)


asya - Thursday, 25 September
Hmm... honestly i haven't even noticed you use slang lol. I mean i have no idea what kind of english i talk myself, it's definitely not britain english but probably some kind of a mix. Anyway, it's totally cool with me. I often notice myself that i still use some game slang, as i used to play world of warcraft in the past and still haven't gotten rid of all the annoying words like U, omg, btw, tbh, lol etc.
Try to cheer up, there's nothing to be sad about, everything is gonna be just fine.
I haven't decided anything yet, i have my midwife apt on friday, gonna try to talk to her (prolly pointless), she's not very good at english and i suspect she doesn't know much about this stuff anyway.
I just hope that i'll go into labor soon so i won't have to decide anything lol.
I put up a poll on another site, about how soon after losing plug u go to labor, so far 8 of 15 answered 0-3 days and only one over two weeks so i'm hoping we'll make it before the c-section. It's booked on Oct. 7th by the way.
I think i should go to bed, not sure if i'm even tired enough to fall asleep but it's almost 1am and i have absolutely nothing to do.
Anyway, take care, try not to worry too much and keep me updated! :)


asya - Wednesday, 24 September
Sorry, i tried to answer you right away, but the site was laggy and didn't want to send my message. You haven't offended me in anyway, rather made me smile. :)
Are you in labor yet? :D
I'm still not... i bought the last things today, like dipers and baby shampoo. I would have bough them months earlier but hubby has been trying to avvoid it all he can, leaving it for tomorrow and next week all the time. Today he tried to leave it for tomorrow again but i got mad and forced him to buy them today :)
How are you doing otherwise? Any news?


asya - Tuesday, 23 September
Hi! How are you? I hope you're alright!


asya - Monday, 22 September
Argh! Guess what! I mean seriously, what the hell is wrong with people! We're fasting right now, so i don't eat or drink all day long (i know it sounds scary, but believe me we're fine), so anyway, yesterday evening we were on our way to the city counting that we would get to Mac right about the time we break the fast... So we're standing at the bus stop and waiting for the bus, and waiting, and waiting... some assholes were throwing stones at the buses somewhere, so the buses decided not to go by our area at all...! Me mad! We had to go to the store and hurry like hell and try to buy something fast to cook as it was only 15-20min left till the time for food. And the only thing i really wanted all day was some kind of vine berry icecream and my hubby didn't wait for me and i didn't get it :( i got home and had an outbreak lol. It's not exactly my idea of a nice meal, having some kinda fast, frozen cream potatoes and wieners, so there goes my fun night.
I don't really think the discharge is the plug, since it's totally clear and just looks like i got overexcited or something lol.
This is my first kid, so honestly i have no idea what's gonna happen. I mean i'm not sure i'm gonna know what to do with it when we bring it home from the hospital and so far i can't even imagine it. I've always wanted to have kids. Funny, i mean my IQ would allow me to become a doctor if i wanted to, but all i really ever wanted was to get married and have kids... what a waste lol!
But erm... i do speak fluent finnish and russian, and i guess pretty good english. At least people usually do understand what i'm saying etc lol. I have a friend, she's great, but her english... aww! I mean sometimes i just have no idea what she's trying to explain :)
Anyway, i gotta go pray and get back to sleep now, just had my breakfast before i start the fast for today :)
Hope you are well! Your son sounds like a lot of fun by the way! :) Take care and keep on smiling! ;)


asya - Sunday, 21 September
Amazing... why the hell do they do that? Exactly the same thing happened to me when i was taking the x-ray of my pelvis. The technitian or whatever she was ( i don't think she's a doc), came to me after maybe second pic and told me that the baby's head is down and she noticed it on both pics and i got so happy and a moment later she came back and apologized and told me she was mistaken. Argh! The best part is, who the hell asked for her opinion anyway? Her job was to take the pics, not play the doctor!
How are you doing otherwise? Scared?
I'm not even sure how i feel anymore. Still have no answer and feel totally confused. I guess it would have been easier if the doc made the decision, lol.
Well, hope everything is well and you take good care of yourself and the baby :)


asya - Friday, 19 September
Indeed i'm praying every night for God to help me make the right decision. This is so weird... i never realised how important this was, never really even thought about it before, i automatically assumed i would give a natural birth and that's it.
I'm originally from Russia, but i've been living in Finland for the past 8y and last december i mover to Sweden to my husband.
How are you feeling?
I've been feeling very weird today, very tired and some kind of weird feelings in my tummy. Honestly i wish the labor would start, can't wait for it. Every time i feel some kind of a pain in my tummy i hope it's contractions starting lol.


asya - Thursday, 18 September
I'm glad the bleeding stoped and your feeling alright. I'm starting to get really really restless, i want it to start NOW!!! Ugh... At least if it started soon i wouldn't have to make the terrible decision lol. I overslept today and my hubby... well, he's my hubby lol, he means good, but... anyway he forgot to call and book me a new apt. I just moved to Sweden some time a go and took some time to get all the papers done etc. so i haven't even started learning swedish yet. I understand some, but not much and my midwife is terrible with english hehe. Anyway, hope your doing fine, remember to relax and not to worry too much.


asya - Thursday, 18 September
Congrats! I'm glad to hear your gonna meat your baby soon! :) )Oct. 9th is my hubby's birthday and he wanted the baby to come on that date but i'm booked for a c-section on 7th but i haven't decided anything yet, so he might just get what he wishes for :)
I'm gonna try to book a new appointment with my MW tomorrow, as soon as possible, to discuss the options.
I hope your version succeeds and you can have a normal vaginal delivery :)
How are you feeling otherwise?
I wonder if our babies are comfy with their heads in our ribs... i mean i'm certainly not lol!


asya - Wednesday, 17 September
I'm very sorry, i'm terrible with lbs. as i live in Europe. I had an u/s on monday and the baby was 2.4kg(2400g) i hope you can turn that into pounds, as for me google.com only turns lbs into kgs, not the other way around. I don't think your weird or anything, i mean you've been pregnant forever now and it's not your first baby so no surprise you feel ready to have her :) I don't really know if i'm ready, but i sure can't wait to meet my baby! :) I always wanted to have a baby since i was a little girl and then i couldn't get pregnant for couple of years (or didn't get pregnant, i wasn't really trying for real) with my ex and then i got married to my husband and BOOM! i got two periods after i moved to his place and then i got two thick blue lines :) Couldn't believe my eyes at first and was scared that it would end. But thank God everything seems to be fine (except for my baby being stubborn and not wanting to turn around). I've been reading and searching for information the whole evening and i feel more and more confident that i want to try having this baby naturally. Both options are scary, but at least this one doesn't make me feel depressed :)


asya - Wednesday, 17 September
Thank you so much! You are really helping! Everyone i ask say that it's better to do the c-section and with my brain i understand that that's probably the safest thing to do but still somehow i feel with my guts that it's better to do it naturally. I guess i just need some time to think about it and see all the options i've got. How has your pregnancy been so far? Are you excited?


asya - Wednesday, 17 September
We didn't find out the sex, so we're having a little surprise :) I'm booked for a c-section on 7th october but my doc said it's okay if i change my mind, i just have to tell my midwife. So i guess i have to decide before 7th next month. I was really affraid of giving birth, but now that i'm booked for a c-section i feel like something very important is being taken away from me. I don't know if you understand what i mean. I just feel like i need to deliver this baby normally, but i'm so affraid i would hurt my baby by doing that. I'm so depressed and confused... i wish this was easier :(


asya - Tuesday, 16 September
No, i didn't get any epidural. They gave me some kind of medicine to make the uterus relax and go soft, but that's it. But seriously, even thou it hurt some, it wasn't unbearable, and i didn't want to stop at any point. You know it's the kind of pain you can cope with if you know it's for a good cause. And beside it's your second baby so things are supposed to be a lot easier this time around and especially if your baby is small. I wish this would have been my second one too, cause then i would definetly go for a breech delivery without any doubts. In the end even if it hurts, you remember why you're doing it the whole time and that it's gonna be over soon and your gonna get to hold your baby. I think it's still a lot nicer than getting an extra hole in you especially since i don't think you really need it, you already have one and a working one too. I'm was terrified of giving birth too, until i heard that my baby is breech and i might have to have a c-section, since this is my first pregnancy. Now i honestly really really want to do it naturally :(


asya - Tuesday, 16 September
I would definetly recommend it, yes. I mean, okay, it might hurt you some, to be honest i started crying in the end, cause they were pushing pretty hard, but...! There were two doctors and one midwife present, one of them was trying to turn the baby and the other one was checking with the ultrasound if it's working and if the baby is fine, plus i was monitored for about half and hour before and after, for the hearbeat and contractions. And the doc said that it's definetly worth trying. The only bad thing about it was that it didn't work for me :( The baby is fine thou, moving and kicking normally, even thou they were pretty violent lol. So anyway, they are very careful with it and they're professionals, so i wouldn't worry for the baby. Plus if they succeed u could have a normal vaginal delivery, which at least from my point of view beats both c-section and breech delivery anytime.


asya - Tuesday, 16 September
Thank you so much for your reply! How come your doctor is gonna try to turn the baby around at week 39? I mean, why not earlier? My doc said that it succeeds in 50% of the cases and trust me it wasn't so bad. I would deffinetly do it again if there was any hope it would work this time.

Also, I know girls that have had their babies turned. One friend's baby turned right back breech and she went through the pain of having her turned for nothing! And another friend's baby got the cord wrapped around their neck when they were turning him so they had to do an emergency c-section at 37 weeks! Just some things to think about girl! Take the time to decide what's best for you and your daughter!!


JennRunyon524 - Monday, 15 September
You never HAVE to do anything! When my doctor was telling me about the process of turning her, I just kind of interrupted him and said that my husband and I decided that we don't want to turn her, that there are risks, and that I would be happier with the idea of a c-section than the idea of turning her. He agreed with me thoroughly! Some doctors just assume that we are all so terrified of c-sections that they want to do everything possible for a vaginal birth! I am not the one to choose how she is going to come into this world, she is..so if she wants to turn than she will, and if not..well then I guess we'll just be going in to get her :) Seriously think about it, and remember it's YOUR choice, not your doctors!!


JennRunyon524 - Monday, 15 September
Hey!! I was given the option of turning the baby, my doctor wanted to do it at 37 weeks but my husband and I were looking into it and I really believe that there are too many risks in turning her! She's obviously comfy where she is so we just decided not to get her turned and went with the c-section! :) I'm honestly happy about the c-section now, I was so upset at first but I know that she's going to come out healthy and happy and we'll get to meet her a little sooner! My c-section is set for September 26th and my original date was October 7th! Good luck with your baby girl and I hope that turning her works out for you :) My doc also told me that there wasn't that high of a chance that they could turn her successfully because my tummy muscles are too tight! So that also influenced my decision! Thanks for the info tho sweetie! Have a great week! xoxo
