Mighty Monday!

**Shell** · 02-03-2003, 03:11 AM

A very good morning to everyone! I have just gotten home from the hospital. As most of you know, I am pregnant and due any week now. I started bleeding a little so my Dr. told me to go to the hospital to check things out.

Well, it turns out I am in the early stages of labor and she could feel the head.

It could be a couple of days or up to a week. They think the baby could be 8.5 pounds.

They also think the head is now down. She has been lying sideways for awhile now and my poor hips were KILLING ME!

Please say a little prayer for me and our sweet baby. I'll keep you posted.

Hang in ther Shell! The end of the body discomforts is drawing near....then its the no sleep phase!! LOL!!----just joshing....I have loved it all!

If you decide to use cloth diapers, LMK. I have great sites where to get good ones with snaps or velcro. I promise cloth diapering is easy.I work 4 days a week and I cd(cloth diaper) my dd exclusively except at daycare where they want disposables. I think all the dipes I have should last me til she potty trains. I paid approx 450 dollars for them and I will re-sell them when I am done.....you can expect to get 1/2 of what you pay for new ones when you re-sell. Even at 250 dollars for it all is AWESOME!!! I know I have saved hundreds so far......and it'll be over 1000 dollars saved in the end plus its good for the environment and no chemicals on her butt.....

If any one else is interested LMK....I can post web pages etc. I don't sell dipes or make refferral money or anything. I just love the cloth a lot!

So....now that I am done rambling!LOL!----Don't forget to breathe and take a pic or 2 to share when you get home!!!! Good Luck!!!
