I hope your mom starts feeling better real soon. Not being able to see her must be so hard for you. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed and hoping to hear good news soon.

Perhaps he hates the 'enforced' aspect of these holidays. If he's great the rest of the time, it is a little odd but like you say, better this way around than the other. Also, instead of waiting for him to remember, start reminding him. I always do with Simon. He is notorious for forgetting dates of things. I start reminding him two weeks in advance AND I'll give him a good idea of what I want. I've done this with a few other men, too. I think it's a male character flaw. I asked our computer repair-dude if he was ready for the big day tomorrow (this was yesterday). He looked all blank so I enlightened him. He was horrified, esp. because he didn't have a lot of time to do anything due to his heavy work schedule. Too funny.

Your baby looks so HAPPY! What a little doll. Thanks for the birthday wishes. My username is 'me' and the password is 'gor'. I think most of my readers have lost the password and just don't read me anymore, sigh. Well, that's what happens when I let too many friends and hubby know about my diary, dammit!!!

Hey, if I was rich and wasn't afraid to fly, I'd come keep you company! You will be fine. It may not be as bad as you think. And if it is, well you'll get through it one way or the other. You will!

Lucky you, going on a nice, warm trip. And of course your baby is advanced for her age...how could it be any other way? :)

Just a quick note, as Simon is waiting. I don't know why you have the hair loss but I have had the same thing on and off for the past 15 years, and am going through it right now actually. I'm thinning quite badly on the top but can still brush it over, thank god. I bought a wig (a grossly expensive one) and I love it. Unfortunately I bought one that has long hair, rather than match my own short hair, so I feel uncomfortable wearing it. Fool that I am. But I have worn it out for special occasions and it looks great. Also, as you well know, I'm sure, take all your essential oils and lecithin, and whatever else is good for your hair. Anyways, gotta go. *hugs* to you and your baby!

Oh, that must have been horrible. You're not a terrible mother; I'm sure everyone has their stories to tell. I'm just glad that everything turned out fine. What a night! I once gave my cat a tylenol instead of her antibiotic (both were sitting on the counter) and she became extremely ill (one tylenol can kill a cat). Did I feel bad? My mom left me downstairs unattended when I was a toddler, and I managed to hang myself! Obviously she came back in the nick of time! My friend dropped her baby once. (she was fine; I think babies are tougher than they look, just in case.....) Have a great day. :)

I can relate to what you're saying. Don't feel guilty about it. I often feel the same way. Looking at other people who have never been sick a day in their life, or any other sort of trauma. Like Big Pete at work. I could just smack him when he says he's never had a stomach-ache! Or anything else, for that matter. So don't feel bad, you're just normal like the rest of us birds!

Cute baby! Very, very cute, and I am not a person who thinks most babies are particularly attractrive! Glad to hear you're doing so well. Minnesota is beautiful country, though, isn't it? I've always wanted to visit that part of the States.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I am so glad you're finally through all this. The experience sounded rather traumatic but so long as you and baby Amy are fine.....! Yay for you!

You are a saint, I think. I would have abandoned mother a long time ago. Do what makes you feel good, minus the guilty feelings. If you don't want to send a card, then don't. To hell with it. If your own mother has never remembered your birthday. As for the shower, that is definately a strange situation. Why on earth did no one tell you? If you're feeling confrontational, mention it! If not, just pretend it's all a surprise. I know what you mean about you kids being 'accessories', my sister is the same way with her kids. It's sad to see. And I wish your baby would hurry---now every time I've seen you update lately, I am thinking, 'this is it!" And, yes, hopefully she's not born on your ma's b-day!

Counting the days, dear! It doesn't sound like much fun. Of course, labor will be an interesting experience but once THAT'S over.......The doctors don't let the baby wait too long overdue, do they? So long as she's healthy and strong I guess they're not worried. Keep bugging them if YOU'RE worried! Hope your day is going well. Kim

Sounds like hell! No, just kidding. But, yes, you are having to go through a lot to stay healthy and keep your baby healthy. I have never carried a baby to term but I do laugh at some people when they are pregnant. I think it's all to do with personality from the get-go unless truly bad problems crop up. One of my g/f waltzed through her pregnancy, never complained or anything, then called me during her labor, screaming in my ear, "Why am I doing this?" This is a girl who has a high tolerance for pain and she was suffering. Enough to scare me! Then I watch Birth Stories. One woman was writhing about, screaming and sobbing, and I was like, wow, something must be bad, then I found out that she'd been in there for like half an hour and she was only ONE cm dilated!!!!! You should have seen her throughout the labor. Her hubby was trying to massage her and talk to her and she kept hitting at him and yelling at him, and screaming and sobbing. Good lord. Now, I cannot say what I would be like, but I would hope that I wouldn't be a wienie? Hahaha. I've lost track of what I wanted to say! Anyways, your mom sounds like a major stress factor. I think you're doing the absolute best you can so tell her to go pound salt! Take care! Kim

I am keeping my fingers crossed for you, dear. I don't know a thing about insulin and diabetes and it sounds like tough decisions for you. Far too stressful. I hope things calm down for you and you can RELAX again. Take care, Kim

thanks MOM!

thanks so much for the note-I am feeling a bit better now (non-stop crying has that effect!)
I feel for you with that landlord. I just shudder to think of it.

Good grief, woman. Unless they are a bunch of insensitive jerks at work, I am sure they will understand! You're pregnant and have health-issues plus you need rest and relaxation! Try not to worry so much about it and tell them soon. I'm sure they'll be fine. If they're not, feel free to leave me a scathing note at diaryland!

woo hoo, a girl! now you get to think of all sorts of names and to pick out cute little outfits. Congratulations!

You sound pretty frazzled. The work situation is more than enough to cause major stress. Are you working right until term? Hopefully you're feeling better soon. A friend of mine found a support group for pregnant women and loved it. Is there anything like that where you are? Take care.

Gee, your new landlord does seem a bit weird. I am totally phobic when it comes to where I live. If he didn't check your references, lord knows what kind of people might live there also, who's references he didn't check? I dunno. He's probably okay, just make sure everything is secure and all that sort of thing. I am sure after you move in, you will get a better idea. Trust your gut instincts, they are always right on. Good luck!

Hi, I just found your diary at random, and have been reading a few of your entries. I hope that everything turns out wonderfully for you. Also my niece has PCOS (at 16) and I know nothing about this-would you be able to enlighten me or refer me to a site if you know of one? She is feeling very hopeless right now and I don't want to see her like this. I hope you don't mind that I added you to my favorites! Take care, Kim

She has the greatest smile of anyone I have ever known or even seen in pictures. I can close my eyes and see her smile to no end. It is comforting and makes me smile in turn. Her smile makes me wish I was sitting on the floor, in the corner of her old quad one more time, talking about silly things and knowing there are wonderful things in the world.
