Thursday Topic: Labor and Delivery

Hello all!

Any day now I will be delivering my first child and I'm nervous, excited, scared and of course I can't wait!

To those ladies that have delivery, where you scared? What was your biggest fear? My biggest fear is having a c - section, but I along with everyone else believe that I will have the baby natural. For this begin my first pregnancy I can honestly say it's been smooth and great, and I'm only hoping and praying for the same thing for the delivery part. I believe and have faith that it will happen that way, and I don't want to start freaking out, worry, or think about it.....I just want to think positive thoughts and send them to the baby!

Another question is Did you have to be induce? As I sit here and hear that word, I automatically think that it's a c - section or it will go that way. I know it doesn't necessarily mean a c - section, it just mean it will help speed up the labor process and of course it could end up natural or a c - section(fingers cross for the first one)!

So after these question that I'm asking, and yes I have talk to my husband and others about the way I'm feeling!

Well the reason why I asked is that tomorrow is Friday and another doctor appointment to check if there is signs of labor, since last Friday I was a half of cm which I'm hoping I'm more tomorrow. Also my due date is this Saturday August 30 and if my son doesn't come out between now and Thursday. If Thursday comes around and no baby still, that night I will check in at the hosptial getting induce and we will welcome him sometime that night or Friday. I'm also hoping that he comes out on his own and I'm not in labor for to long, I know first time parent but hey I'm having hope in my body that it will be natural and not long at all!

Well stay tuned and find out when I will welcome my son and how I welcome him!!

Enjoy!

On that note first Thursday Topic:

Love is in the Air

Met this guy towards the end of 2004 we were friends getting to know each other, from there we became boyfriend and girlfriend on January 14, 2005! He moved in a few months later, as people thought we were moving to fast. When November of 2007 came around he popped the question and of course I said Yes! Than planning stage had started, and we were planning a wedding and got married November 1st, 2008. Yes I got married at 22 to my second boyfriend, and till this day after being married for five years going on six years this November....I can honestly say it has been by far the best decision I made to say Yes to him and  becoming his wife, and I'm glad I got this amazing guy in my life as my husband and my best friend!

It's a blessing each and everyday I get with him, and it's amazing how each passing day my love for him just get stronger. You know after so many years I'm happy to say he still gives me butterflies till this day!!

Please feel free to share your love in the air topic! 

We are now in August

Hello August and the month we have been waiting for...

This month hopefully my husband and I will be welcoming our first child a boy at that to our family, and we couldn't be happier! My doctor appointments are now every Fridays and hopefully tomorrow we get some news that the labor process has started, but we shall see tomorrow. In the meantime I'm starting to think I can't do it and my biggest fear is having a c - section, but I know with my husband, and my great support system behind me and with God by my side I know I can and will do it and I will have a normal birth which I have faith I will have it that way....no going to doubt it!!

No matter what I have faith and will not let nothing bring me down including myself because I know I can do it and will do it, and at the end everything will be Worth it and just Fine!

Another updated coming soon!

By the way how did you feel about giving birth? Did you think you couldn't do it? Please share!

Thanks,
Lauren
