I Don't Often Rant; but When I Do, I Prefer to Rant on VJ

So, I have 2 checks that I deposited by android app.

I left the checks laying on the kitchen counter top.

Tiff sees them, and asks why I haven't deposited them.

I said I deposited them by phone.

So she throws them out. After I told her don't throw them out until they clear.......

That was asking for trouble.

Fritos are not veggies either.....

They suck anyways.

Oh did I mention I have two yes two sleeping littles

[SAT 9,609]

so who asked you to leave them out on the counter?

even after knowing you have a wife who likes to throw things out?

That was asking for trouble.

Tark is having a stroke and a half reading this ......

Oh did I mention I have two yes two sleeping littles

Don't know your history, but talk to your doctor about how many kids you want cause multiple sections become riskier. Either way I hope you have a safe delivery.

I think with how long it takes us to get pregnant and not wanting to be an older mother, there won't be probably more than 3 total c-sections. VBAC is usually not an option in MN and I am very far from a hospital with a NICU or that would have the staff on had for a VBAC. We will be discussing it, but for safety reasons, I am guessing that it will probably not happen.

VBAC is definitely NOT safer in rural Minnesota.

Plus, I didn't want to whine too much, but I've pretty much been bed-bound for the last 4 weeks and I'm not sure I want to go through this again.

My first c-section was my choice despite my birth plan calling for no medical intervention, but I am glad I did it. The recovery was minimal compared to a regular birth and I didn't do lasting damage to my pelvis.

Definitively need the right doctor and hospital.

Hopefully you will be feeling better soon.

Aren't you like 25, you have like till you're 50 before you become an older mom

Not sure what damage you're talking about, if it's just the separation/spreading that already happens long before delivery.

You know you did start it twice at that.

note to Steve:

Stretch is a nursing Mom - and that's natural birth control (mostly) till she stops..

Why you pushing her to have another? it's not like they have a 4 acre plot behind the house and need the slave labour to tend the garden, milk the cows, or render the fat from the slaughtered hogs they raised.

I'm 27, I was 25 when we starting trying. Before that I had 30 as a definite end date. The chances of a woman conceiving, even with IVF, in my family past the age of 35 are basically nill and my AMH and estrogen is low for my age.

I overextended my ligaments when I pregnant before and couldn't walk. It was so bad that they weren't sure if I had fractured my pelvis and when they took an x-ray baby's head was in the way.... Well at least the medical students had something interesting to look at, right? Not very often you get to seen an xray of a baby in utero.

Oh are you talking about SPD? A friend had it twice her chiropractor was the only thing that kept her out of a wheel chair for her second pregnancy. Hopefully the rest of your pregnancy goes smooth and you get knocked up nice and fast.

My Tornado out grew naps a year ago. Only problem is she think she outgrew all sleep. I swear it can't normal to wake up to throw a tantrum if anyone says anything, looks at her or even try to help get her a drink in the morning.

Mini-B. is similar to Wee D Ma'am, wee man. Sometimes, he's OK in the mornings, but usually he's like a chip off the old block, me man.

This continues to lend credence to the wise saying, "Naps are wasted on babies and children when WE need them, si zzz man!"

1 Noting Tark new promotion to Skunk catcher, congrats man

2 Don't blame me, if you quit playing wrappers with the pu##y all night, you too could wake rested.

1. Went out and saw the "stunk" crossing to our side of the street, but a few casas down, stink man.

2. Can't ignore the older child in exclusive favor of the younger, no man. And how much more obvious can it be than for a cat to drop a wrapper at one's feet and strop one's legs, huh man?

Tark you fool....run!!

I would never have a c-section if I could help it. It completely and utterly baffles me why anyone would choose it the first time when it wasn't medically necessary and not try a vbac the second time unless there were underlying circumstances. Just like it completely baffles me why you wouldn't breastfeed if you could. There are some people who can't and that's okay obviously. I guess I think our bodies are made to do this and if you can, if it's within your realm of possibilities, you should try.

Always having to have a c-section is part of the reason why I never had more children. Likely the experience wouldn't have been nearly as traumatic the second time around, as I would have been prepared so it wasn't the only factor, but it did play a part. It's why I freak out now when I'm late because a) i'm fixed and b) this would be a whole world of VERY expensive.

I don't think a lot of women really choose it the first time - it's more they get talked into it or worse bullied into it by the medical professionals.

I was aiming to go completely drug free when I had my little girl and was basically bullied into having the pitocin by a nurse on the overnight staff who just kept nagging me every 20 minutes from about 2am in the morning after I had been in labour for over 20 hours - she kept saying "if you don't progress any more you will just have to go home and then you'll have to come all the way back again tomorrow" and then really pushed me into accepting the epidural "if you don't have it now you'll be too far along to have it later" "if you don't have it now you won't be able to keep still enough for the needle later and then you won't get any pain relief"

It was relentless until in my exhaustion and aloneness (hubby was fast asleep in a chair in the corner) I just gave in.

I had nightmares about that night for months afterwards and I really wish now I'd made a complaint against the nurse. Luckily for the actual pushing bit a really lovely sweet woman came on shift and the horrible nurse left.

I was too for the last two, how much over I won't tell

Me too!

Although I come from a long line of older mothers - my grandmother was 40 when she had my Mum and my Mum was 35 when she had me.

Which is not a big deal now but was very old in their day.

And now I know it sucks because your own kids don't get to experience their grandparents very long.
