Answer 1

I love sharing my stories so here ya go.
I cant actually remember when I found out the sex of my girls. But I think it was around 18-20 weeks. My first one was fairly well behaved. As I was working whilst pregnant she spent most of the day asleep. After I finished work she'd start swimming around and kicking and trying to poke her fingers out of my belly. As I was leaving to go the hospital my little brother asked if I could bring him back a bottle of coke!!! He was like 14 or 15. After a few hours without coke my brothers and their friend decided to go to the hospital to find out what was taking so long. Poor things they walked in while I was pushing and got an eyeful. They still havent gotten over. They spent my whole labour trying to pick up the nurses. Finally my daughtyer decided to arrive and just in the nick of time to, I was just about to get an epidural (I'm scared of needles) and as the nurse was telling me to sit still and not move so they could give it to me I freaked out and said No, thats when my darling daughter decided to arrive. Although she played peekaboo first. Her head came out and then back in like 10 times before she finally decided to let the rest of herself arrive. (She's 6 now and thinks thats the funniest story) When she finally arrived it was so amazing, I knew her name as soon as I looked at her. It was funny to cause she looked like an alien. ( When I was pregnant I had a dream I gave birth to an alien baby)
With my second, I thought she was going to be a soccer player as she just wouldnt stop kicking and really hard to. She used to get her foot up under my ribs and kick. She was very hyperactive. The only time she'd calm down was when my then 1 & 1/2 yr old would lay her head on my belly and sing the baby a lullaby. With her labour I left for the hospital really late. I didnt want to go, but my Mum and Mother in law made me. No. 2 decided to arrive just as I was falling asleep ( the labour was only 1 hour, but due to contractions and a 2 yr old I hadnt slept for 24hrs) and as she likes to say now she just popped out. Quick as you can blink. The coolest part was that as I was holding her my Mum cracked a joke and this like 5 sec old baby cracked a smile. I thought it was fuuny. Now my Mum and my youngest have a speacial bond.
Its just so amazing to finally lay eyes on this baby thats been growing inside you for so long. Its so hard to describe. But it is the most awesomest feeling in the world. Although after you feel hollow, even though your holding your baby. And you freak out that it fit inside you. Well I did. I'd lay them on my stomach and just couldnt figure out how they fit.
I hope my stories were intresting and helped you in any way. Good luck. And Merry Christmas.
