Any Other Pregnant Chefs Out There?

In summary, A group of women are discussing about their pregnancies and their experiences with it. Some love being pregnant while others are anxious and ready for it to be over. One woman is expecting her bundle of joy in less than two weeks, while others are already mothers and enjoy the experience of being pregnant. Some even express their desire for more children. Despite the discomforts of pregnancy, they all are looking forward to holding their babies in their arms.

Congrats!!!!! Oh how precious! My children are older now 8 and 10. I feel like we have a good set up with one boy and one girl. I LOVED being pregnant. I loved being the center of attention! I loved the baby growing in me! Wow, God is so good! Delivery wasn't bad on either one. I'd like to have another but I'm not sure how the raising them part would go. I'm sure it's a phase I'm going through with everyone having babies around me.
MY best friend is dialated to 2 and 100%. I am praying she doesn't deliver while I am visiting family next week.
Anyway, so to ramble. I am so thankful for your new baby! It will be tough with two little ones, but sooooo worth it!

CONGRATS! That's incredible news and what a beautiful picture!!!!

I've been fighting my hospital to have a VBAC for the last four months. They aren't giving in so far because of hospital liability insurance rules. Just last night we decided to write an official letter stating our desire, quoting our research, and then send it certified mail return receipt requested to the head of the OB ward. I can't believe they're making such a big fuss over it. I told them I have a higher chance of having an infection related to a repeat cesarean than I have of getting a uterine rupture. They couldn't disagree, but they feel like they have their hands tied. And since they have a full surgery staff always on hand, why not let me go for it?! It just makes me sick to think of all the rest of my babies having to be cut out. Just for once I'd like to be able to hop off the birthing table by myself, be able to get in and out of bed for the following two months without asking for help, and be able to pick up my other babies without having to worry about opening the scar line. :rolleyes: :cry: :mad:

I had a check-up yesterday. Everything is going fine. They are sending me some topical creme to apply to my wrist for the nausea. I am ready for it to get here b/c I have now progressed to throwing up. It is fenigin but they said the cream is not suppose to make you sleepy like the pills do.
