Going to sleep and waking up with a baby I would think would be in the top ten of good birth experiences!! Hope he doesn’t want to meet you too soon though. That few hours of regular long BH doesn’t sound nice.

Enjoy the sleeping late. Although newborns sleep lots so you might be able to have a few more lazy mornings yet – its when they reach about two and are convinced that if they don’t get out of bed at half four the day will pass them by.

Sending you lots of baking baby and motivation vibes.

2 suggestions: Subscribe to Craftzine blog, lots of motivation there, and download all seven seasons of Gilmore Girls. And all 3 seasons of Veronica Mars. Those kept me sane while baking Julian.

Hang in there Lulu– I always sleep after 11, because I don’t get to bed until after 2. I prep dinner (as of recent) then get home after 10 p.m. from work.. Unwind, do my 45 min of aerobics, and I am in bed by 2.

4 out of seven days– if you sleep till 12, it is because you need it.. Are you like me, one of those gals who need their 8 hours? I am, or I am GROUCHY and can’t function right.

Have you thought about maybe getting Hikari or Sky Perfect HD? I’m a movie buff and can’t be without my English programs… When I broke my knee, it was the only thing that kept me sane, that and magazines Galore, and my lap top.

Keep hanging in there Lulu! I don’t know if BH ever stop entirely even if you’re on medication, maybe someone who has taken it before can pipe up. I do know that I get BH fairly often these days — they usually aren’t painful, but sometimes they do make you pause for a second. What I have heard is that you need to really worry if the contractions are a) painful, b) occuring at regular intervals, and c) the time between them is decreasing. It couldn’t hurt to call your clinic and ask them how you will know if the medication is working or not though, and what warning signs you should look out for to know whether you should go in immediately or not.

Oh! To answer your other question, we still don’t know what sex baby #2 is. I don’t think there’s really much chance of that changing at this point, so we’re stocking up on green and yellow stuff. It’ll be kind of cool to have the whole “surprise, its a ___!” thing though. The funny part is that my parents are convinced that I actually *do* know, but are just holding out on them. I actually had to sort of tell my dad off the other day because his insistence that I must know the sex and am just trying to pull a big surprise on everyone was starting to annoy me. If I knew, so would everyone else, I am not good at keeping secrets!

Sophie- sorry your comment got caught in my spam (too many smily faces! haha, I don`t know how to stop it from doing that but anyone that uses more than one gets stuck in SPAM)

Will do about the Skype! I am kind of always online in the background anyway- if someone skypes me I am on invisable but the computer is on constantly anyway…

Same as what I said to Nay- if I find some motivation I will send it your way. That said you seem to have a lot for making halloween supplies- all of which are very cute!

Jessica C- Thanks for the well wishes! I have never thought about water because I figured I could buy it if I needed to- I am not fussy either and would be happy with tap water from the kitchen. I am not sure if it is provided? I will need to check.

They do have a vending machine downstairs though that you can buy water from.

That would of sucked though- I hate places that have the heat cranked up for no good reason. Seriously- the babies are wearing clothes and wrapped in blankets- they are NOT going to catch a cold!

Nay- That is what I am hoping! I might need to go back before my next scheduled appointment though but we will see- Shun thinks I should ring (or he should ring) to double check what the medicine is supposed to be doing.

I wish I had motivation- if I find some I will be sure to send some your way as well. Off to Elizabeth`s in about an hour!

I’m sorry to hear that the medication is not working. I would definitely be bringing it up at your next doctors appointment. Hopefully you are right in your opinion that they aren’t meant to be stopping the BH’s but making sure you don’t diliate…

I understand completely about the no motivation thing – that’s the story of my life!! I have so much stuff that I could do be doing but instead I waste my days away basically doing nothing.

Hope you have a nice day with Elizabeth today
