I can and do sympathize. I too have to pump 3x a day at work...not only are you saving moolah by breastfeeding, but you are giving Larkin an amazing gift...formula can&#39;t even come close to the real thing! And it seems like on weekends when Jason does &quot;Jason&quot; things (i.e., golf, go out with buddies, mow the yard) I don&#39;t get much done around my house, except taking care of Haley. Who just had her shots today. I cried with her. I&#39;m rambling now...but hang in there! And who the hell is PGW? And what kind of psycho reads a complete strangers blog and then makes completely retarded comments on it? Some people, are just douches.<br /><br />:)<br />VictoriaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313317447679719056.post-40247662183493781112009-07-16T18:03:01.516-05:002009-07-16T18:03:01.516-05:00This previous comment has me absolutely furious. Everything you are feeling is completely normal for a new mom or any mom at various times in her life. You are not being whiney at all and if it helps you to vent on your blog then more power to you. Please do not give this person&#39;s comment a second thought. You are a wonderful mom and wife and I know you are thankful for everything you have. On a side note, Dave Ramsey is wonderful. We started following his principals last August and it has changed our financial life for the better.Kirts' Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02567876272717553427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313317447679719056.post-80744001563984661522009-07-16T11:23:52.075-05:002009-07-16T11:23:52.075-05:00waa, waa, waa... woe is me. i stumbled upon this blog, but will not come back. quit being such a baby and take life by the horns and deal with it. everyone has problems, but not everyone has to air them publicly. i could comment about the running, trying to lese the debt, etc, but why? all you want is sympathy...get off your ass, quit complaining, and write about the good things in your life....the baby, the fact that you have a roof over your head, the husband, etc. heck i would work late too, if all i had to come home to was a complaining wife... one wonders what he really is doing until 9:00 at night...PGWhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03098662489076533737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313317447679719056.post-40961297982801055812009-07-15T17:22:54.887-05:002009-07-15T17:22:54.887-05:00Allison don&#39;t beat yourself up too much. I had all of those feelings myself and still sometimes do. Add to that Ryan getting laid off and me not finding a job after graduation and you feel pretty crappy. Having a baby changes your perspective on everything in life and you don&#39;t understand till they get here. That makes it so much harder to figure out how to handle it. I promise it gets easier though. *hugz*sjaxnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06197790499978965745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313317447679719056.post-37495979844848754332009-05-19T09:11:00.000-05:002009-05-19T09:11:00.000-05:00Allison,<br /><br />I too thought breastfeeding would be super "easy" and natural --- hah!!! It is getting better, but only after two miserable weeks of extreme soreness!! I very much enjoyed your blog post. And ditto on the celebrity moms thing --- looking at them doesn't make me feel better about the post-pregnancy love handles I'm sporting...or the piece of cake I am eating as I type this!<br /><br />Victoria OchsVictorianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313317447679719056.post-79665373106011675752009-05-13T11:35:00.000-05:002009-05-13T11:35:00.000-05:00the "ring of fire"...great way to scare the living day lights out of this girl.<br />haha<br />larkin is beautiful. so happy for you and michael...you both will be wonderful parents i just know it.<br />love you bunches.

My pregnancy was very difficult, and my labor and delivery went as far off my plan as it possibly could have. I also wanted an all natural birth, but I ended up with a c/s and vomiting in recovery for the first 2 hours of my daughters life. However, the nurses at C-dale took wonderful care of me even though by the time they finally decided what we were going to do i (unknowingly) was tossing out f-bombs at them (and everyone else) like nobodys business! <br />I am glad things went well for you without complications, and I am happy for you and your husband! Daughters are wonderful!Tawnyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17304161549246371018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313317447679719056.post-60033378756294039532009-04-15T16:32:00.000-05:002009-04-15T16:32:00.000-05:00To be on the other side of the induction debate... I was put on Pitocin at 6am while I was maybe at a 1 then my water broke at 6:45. I was at a 4 by 10am and advanced to a 10 by 12:30ish and had Jereme at 12:59. So in my case the induction was good for me and I had him within 7 hours. I also had never had a contraction and was only 50% effaced and a fingertip when I went in. I had a lot of work to do and it went quickly for me but every delivery is different for every person. You'll make the right choice!!sjaxnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06197790499978965745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313317447679719056.post-10648488140747676552009-04-15T09:35:00.000-05:002009-04-15T09:35:00.000-05:00Allison,<br />I had the exact same situation as Tawny...24 hrs of induction then a c-section but some poeple can go in 4-5 hrs after induction...depends on you! Good luck and can't wait to see pics of that baby real soon!!!Jessicshttp://www.cooknitupwithcollins.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313317447679719056.post-61472389180167685162009-04-15T08:17:00.000-05:002009-04-15T08:17:00.000-05:00This is just me, but they tried inducing me for 24 hours and I ended up with a c-section....I would try to avoid an induction if at all possible! Women have been having babies for years without medical intervention, so why can't we? Best of luck to you, your husband, and your new addition! Motherhood is the most amazing and fulfilling thing, and I know you will be a great mom!
