Her hubby was brave enough to be there for her last one, so I was glad of that for both of them.

Congratulations to your dear daughter...it's wonderful for her to be honored for her hard work...

My husband had no problem going in with the first one - he really didn't know what to expect and he never complained about it or talked about it much - he did mention it was kinda gross Lol! But never said much and now he is on this kick of just how gross it was and how he really really doesn't want to see it all again. He said it made him look at me completely differently and it just grossed him out. Lol!!! I told him he wasn't about to get out of it now!! He made it through the first one and he will do the same for this one. He also complains that I about broke his hand.

I've been saying all along (didn't post it but thinking it) that you need to go to your son's wedding regardless of whatever. Bless him and bless the others and they will bless you in return.

Amen!

What does it mean "he looked at you differently"...you know sis for many many many many years men were not present when the baby was born, it was considered a woman's thing as time passed they did at least have doctors, not that it was an improvement overall...you might want to really seriously discuss this with him, and don't force him to do something he really is uncomfortable with...if he could be with you up to and after the delivery maybe you could get someone else to help you with the delivery...your mom, a sister, or a close friend....

Well, i'm pretty sure he is half joking. He was only 21 when Jasmine was born. I think it just shocked him - we had only watched one child birthing video and it was not very detailed. Mainly just was going over what to do if complications arise. I think when it comes down to it he would be upset if he wasn't there to see the new one as soon as it is born. My mom was also in there with the first and she will probably also be with this one. I felt most at ease while in labor an delivery when he was by my side - the times he would step away from the bed or leave the room I would always start feeling panicky - not sure why, my mom was there but I just felt more reassured when he was there - I couldn't imagine him not being there this time.

With this statement - well, I am a "prissy" woman. LOL! I don't how to describe it but I am very private about certain bodily issues and functions. I keep things private - and when in labor you all know how un-private things get!!! Lol!!!! It wasn't a big deal I think he is just not looking forward to seeing all that again. Just as I am not really looking forward to going through it all again!!!

Just poppin' in to say HI today. Nothing big and exciting is happening here. Sometimes that could be considered a good thing, ya know what I mean?

I've enjoyed reading all the posts from the last couple of days.

Rhoni, I admire your openness in sharing your heart with us. I know that this has been a huge struggle for you the last little while. And I am confident that when God brings you out on the other side, you will be a better Rhoni for having made it thru.

Carey, still praying about your house. Any more news?

I can understand this...I'm very private too! I did not want anyone watching me give birth except my husband and the nurse and doctor.
