*WARNING* This post contains a great deal of whining and graphic description of pregnancy related conditions!!!!!!!
So .....most of you know that I have this fun little problem where I experience contractions in very unusual numbers. I had so many with Taylor that I was out on partial/full bed rest for 6 weeks. Since I never dilated past a one-they weren't so concerned with Halle and this pregnancy. They start very early (16 weeks) and basicly during the last month if I am moving I am contracting! BUT this last week has been horrible!!!!! I have almost gone to the hospital three times convinced I was in labor. The contractions are so bad that I have to stop and breath through them. They are painful and accompanied by cramping and shooting pain in the pelvic bone. Im also having....how do I put this, I feel like I am barely holding him in down there!!!!!! My last appt. was Friday and I was sure after all my descriptions she would at least send me to a monitor but instead I was told I was only a one and a half and to "hang in there". I was up all night Sunday night only to have them less severe in the morning. Last night I told E, I think I might have to go in only to have the intense ones stop an hour later. My mom comes in a week and my induction is a week from Thursday so I know I can "hang in there", it is just frustrating to not be able to FUNCTION. I have come to the conclusion that I am one of those ladies who is in labor for like 2 weeks-somehow this is a comforting thought to me, like I am less wimpy if I am in labor. Yesterday, we picked Taylor up from school and went and got a dozen doughnuts-I have eaten four maple bars so far!!!! I am going to take full advantage of eating whatever I want this last week, except for the fact that the food has nowhere to go so you can't eat more than a few bites or you are miserable!!!! THANKS for letting me whine!!!! I am just worried and anxious and want everything to happen NOW so I know he will be here safe!

I am SO sorry!!!!
How do women have 10 children?
Even 5 for that matter???
Wish I could take you to lunch before the bid day!
Oh girl!!! So this is what I get to look forward too? Oh man, if i get that bad I am gonna have to take an early maternity leave! You poor thing! I'm gonna have to call you! I guess keep hanging in there girl and remeber you get to get a cute new little baby out of all of this!!! Wahoo!
Oh you poor thing! You are almost there!!
I didn't realize you were so far along! In your pictures in the last post you look like I did when I was only 7 months along! I know what you mean about the donuts though. This having sweets only one day a week has been a good compromise for me!
You're going to make it! I feel so bad for you. You're a tough cookie!
This is not whining. It's more like justified commiserating. Hang in there and complain all you want! You've earned it.
You whine all you want! At this point whining and maple bars should be a requirement :) Good luck....looking forward to a new baby post!
I hope you don't mind if I link you on my blog
I keep thinking I will get on your blog and see little Baby H. You know what I am thinking the whole time I am reading your post???? Exactly, glad it's not me this time. I love you Jen but not enough to bear children at the same time again.
love you hang in there
keep checkin in to see if there is news...nothing can really soothe the pains of the last few weeks and days...but eat, enjoy, and look forward to being able to breathe again! good lucky girly, not that you'll need it...you are a pro! luv cami
Congrats Jen! I heard you had little Ashton! So glad he is here safe and I hope you are doing well!
Is he here?!?! YOu changed from Asher to Ashton!? That's a surprise to me! I love it though, brings back some memories for me. You couldn't possibly remember why though! :) Good luck sweet friend.
