    Add me to the list. What happens when you both go into labor at same time. Hehe.

    Funny story. I was reading about the stages of labor last night from the book the hospital gave me. I turned to my husband and said, "Honey, you should read this too. Has information on what to expect from a support standpoint." He gave me this blank look and said, "Doesn't the doctor tell you what to do and when?" I laughed so hard and said, "Did you think I was talking about the 'pushing' stage? Because that is the short part of labor, I'm talking about the other stage before that - ya know the long and uncomfortable one." He says, "Well how long is THAT?" I tell it could last for hours and hours. Then he asks me how he is going to stay awake that long and he might need a nap. LOL. I told him I'd give him a dirt nap if he fell asleep on me while I'm in labor.

    He is such a nut, he thinks giving birth is like what you see on TV where it is really quick. LOL

    I'll try to make everyone weeks apart, I know as of now Cama, and I are delivering early.

    I let DH nap, His crankiness and pacing the floors made it that much harder on me, Men will never get it. I would randomly scream really loud to wake him up

    LOL! Men right???!! I was irritated but I let Shaun sleep through my labor with Brooke...mostly because he didn't believe I was in labor. I woke him up at 4am ish, said let's go. Got to the Hospital and checked in around 5am, had Brooke at 6:59am. He was so amazed and told me how awesome I did and it was so fast, blah blah blah. Yeah babe, that because I let you sleep through the first 6 hours...lol.

    Brittany_dawn 18th & katieN 29th

    growinshuchs17th & Babybluesash 5th

    Stefanyeileen 16th & Paulette 21st

    I will update with BabyPayne.

    I tried to get the due dates as far apart as possible, but we were all kinda lumped together.

    PM each other your info. Do not post it here! I can PM my info to everyone in case some labors are close together and buddies are both in the hospital or just barely home.
