Sigh

Miss Charlotte went to her "forever" home yesterday. I added the new mom on Facebook and we have each others phone numbers, but I haven't heard anything yet. I miss the baby girl already. I just really hope she is happy and I am trying to not think about the possibilities that she won't get as much attention, her yard isn't as big and I REALLY hope she doesn't think we abandoned her. That thought makes me cry. That said --- her new dad supposedly plans on taking her running, she has a 2 yo human baby to "play" with, and she also has a dog in the house to enjoy. Bottom line I am sure she is fine, I just worry by nature. I wish I could change that about myself but I fear it will only get worse once the baby arrives. I remember once I was talking about worrying about my Kraymer and mother said "Thank GAWD you don't have kids if you are this worried about your dog!!!" Sigh. It seems to be in my nature.

Anyways. YAY OBAMA! I was very scared that the right was going to win and pro choice rights were going to fade away as was birth control access and planned parenthood... That thought really scares me. I am VERY lucky in that I have never had to make the decision on an abortion, but I like knowing that women out there have that option if they feel they need it. If it's not legal it doesn't mean it isn't going to happen...

I am still overly anxious about the whole delivery process of this child within my belly. I swear to dog if Ron says "It's been happening for thousands of years you will be fine" one more time to me!!!! Grrr. I just think, yeah, lots of things have happened for thousands of years to humans, but NOT to ME! I know he's only trying to help but it makes me want to smack him and say go get some kidney stones to pass and let me know how reassuring it is for me to say many many men have passed these, you will be fine...

That's enough from my corner... happy Monday peeps.

As for the political side, I couldn't agree more. So happy that men out of touch with the people won't be making decisions about what I can and can't do reproductively.
And as for delivery, you're a tough cookie on the outside. Remember that and just breathe. And there's always Cesarian. Hugs, doll.

I love that Cosby routine! And he's right - that's exactly what it feels like!

I'm a worrier too, but I've been working on it. When there is nothing we can do, worrying makes us feel we can still help by putting our worrying energy toward it. It's all to no avail, of course, but it doesn't stop us.

very true...

well i have no horror stories of giving birth. mine was relatively fast. 6 hours total from when the labor pains first started! discuss with your doc about pain meds. I waited too long and didn't get any! and it's been happening for thousands of year, you'll be fine! any names picked out yet? do you want to know ahead of time if its a boy or girl?

yes we will be finding out the gender on Dec. 6th!

nice to hear from you and yes it is tough Ms.Charlotte went to a new home.
Not much you can do there at this time and yes hope that they keep in touch on this.

They actually have been in touch and said she is doing well. YAY! That is music to my ears, although I still miss her lots.

Hey, I passed a stone when I had pancreatitis. It wasn't fun, but it wasn't all that bad (when it was over). Have fun! Not passing the stone... I mean enjoy the experience.

There is more to the experience than delivery.

I think elderJane's answer says it best.
