My SIL's cervix. 63 hours into induction and 1cm. Cervidil overnight twice, several doses of a pill (not sure which one) to help ripen the cervix over the last 24 hours, 3 days of pitocin and lots of labor ball bouncing. Craziness.
Geez Louise! That's sounds awful! 12 hrs of pitocin was hell. That is one cozy baby!
She's at about 76 hours now. And I thought 28 was bad! Yikes.
At the risk of stirring up a political argument, my in-laws. Honestly I love them, but I've never seen such a close minded group of fucktards. You'd think I'd learn to not engage them in political arguments by now, but evidently not. ::deep breaths::
I hate family political discussions. I still can't believe my husband's cousin was using the n-word when discussing politics at Christmas dinner a few years ago. I have no clue what I would do if that happened when my kids were at the table.

motownthrowdown, thanks for the explanation! So my TW award goes to my usually loving DH, who often accuses me of being too controlling, so tonight when he was trying to put DS2 down for a nap, i let him do his thing. Then he gets pissed at me for not stepping in when he was crying. Um you're a grown up, ask for help if you need it. Now he is not speaking to me! I think this might go in the FFC, but i wonder if it was easier parenting DS1 as a single parent! Now having done it both ways, im almost convinced!
Me: 39 DH: 39 DS1 born Sept 1999 Married Nov 2010 TTC 2010 2011 BFP ended in ectopic RE Aug 2014. Unexplained infertility Sept 2014-Dec 2014 fermera/IUI/TI BFN's
August 16, 2015 baby Boy M is born and our hearts melt!
packmomma, I get cold sores too. They are the worst! My mom also gets them. I hope I don't pass them on to J, they are so painful and I was always soooooo embarrassed when I had one. Sorry your doctor made you feel like crap about it!
Thanks. Her bedside manner blows I need to find a new one. I get so embarrassed when I have one I become a hermit and don't leave my house but I want to kiss my baby again so to the crap doctor I went. Fx for both J and W that they miss out on this crap.
I am late to the game, but TW award goes to DH's boss. Dh worked 10 hours on Friday with 3 other people. They were late to the job site because one guy had to do something in the office and then they had to leave the site on time (instead of late as usual) because another guy had to get his kids from daycare. The boss sent them a letter and said that because they didn't stay late and finish the job in one day and because he couldn't bill the client for 2 days becasue they had already estimated it was a one-day job, he was only paying them for 2 hours of work each. So DH worked 10 and is only getting paid for 2...he doesn't want to say anything because he has only been there a month, but I am so mad. That is illegal, right? The boss can be mad, but he should be the one to take the hit, not his hourly employees.

Sounds illegal to me. Do they have time cards? Can they prove the time they actually worked?
I would be looking for a new job at the very least, but more likely going to the boss's boss to get paid what I'm due. And plotting revenge.

tell him to come back when he has found his manners.

Laverne, I don't. I have been lucky lately (*runs to knock on the first piece of wood I see*). I have only gotten two in the last 7 or 8 years. I used to get them all the time as a child and in college though. So awful!
I take it every day. I hadn't gotten one for a couple of years but pregnancy brought them back. And my triggers tend to be stress and lack of sleep. So I'm hoping these for become routine. The gp prescribed me preventative medicine but I'm going to call the pediatrician an lc before I take it because the dr was looking things up on Web md. I don't have a lot of confidence in her.

i only use it, when i feel one come on and i take one on empty stomach 3x day and it usually lessens the outbreak. My triggers same as you.

I could probably lessen it to just when I feel one come on. They were so bad during the 1st trimester that I just took it every day. It's a huge horse pill so I probably will just do it as needed.
