Oh K, I didn't realize you had bruises. That breaks my heart. Here's to fast healing (up goes my coffee cup, as if I needed a reason to do that, lol).
My labors are always really long. That's why we headed out to the oktoberfest..just to walk around and pass the time. My plan was to do as I did with the other 2--walk around, stop when a contraction hit and hold on to something (wall, fencepost, whatever) and then keep on enjoying the day. However, we got there and everyone was absolutely wasted and I wanted out of there, fast. I didn't want to have memories and visuals popping in my head of all these idiotic stinking people when I was supposed to be focused on my lovely baby's arrival. I'm sure you can relate.
The bikini wax, how ingenious! You know, I remember bawling (shutup hairdog! I know you are now snickering saying Which time) because I was so unkempt and yet I couldn't reach/see to take care of it myself. I was too humiliated to ask H for help, knowing that he would not want to be involved in that. He still makes comments about how unattractive pregnancy is so there is a part of me that dreads if we have another one, just for that reason alone. If I would have been thinking, I would have arranged for a wax and presto it's taken care of. How wonderful! Have your legs and brows done too while you're at it. And a manicure and facial.
Ok, 4/21. Got it. Your labors sound heavenly. I hope all goes as smoothly with Joseph as it did with the others. xo
