I was desperate and exhausted and feeling sick by that point. The pain comes in waves... contractions... which get closer together and more painful as the baby gets closer to birth. It's the waves that is the exhausting part. And man, I was verbally abusing my poor boy and cursing every extremity on his body for putting me through that. I never thought I would be one of those girls, but when you're there and you're going through it, it's pretty intense. Plus you're full of hormones during the birth and it's hard to even think straight. There's nothing nice or attractive about it.
He needs to to try. It took me a week to get Lachie to take it when he first woke up. First three days he kept throwing it up after he ate it it, the next four days he didn't want a bar of it. It's not nice.
I really don't wanna be one of those girls either, but I guess I'm not really gonna have much say about it on the day. Poor Lachlan... Poor Doc. All they wanna be is daddies and then they get that. Although the way I hear it that moment when they see 'em kinda makes up for it. It's pretty fuckin' amazin' all this stuff.
I'll work on it. It'll probably take time. It really is gross lookin' stuff.
See, I love my husband more than life itself, but birth turned me into a monster. He was so amazing, though. He just took it all and never left my side. It's a miracle I didn't break his hand how much he was squeezing it. I would do it all again in a heartbeat, but well, we're blessed once and that's a miracle in itself. I was stunned enough when they told me he was a boy but when I saw him and saw that he had Lachie's hair, I lost it. I will never, ever forget that moment. My boys are my heart and soul.
It tastes gross too. Kind of like wet cardboard. But it's good for you.
Oh Lordy... I'm gonna have to be covered durin' the birth, or at least the doctors are gonna have to be suited up. Last thing I need is someone passin' out on me. And I can't hold the Doc's hand... not normally. So there's gonna have to be gloves. I think it's great ya had a miracle Christmas baby boy. And I still say that Riley and Baby Girl Chase should be betrothed. Although I got a feelin' the Doc still ain't gonna let her have sex. Ever. I'll have to work on him.
