something funny... and a clarification...

So... Tonight at Jayna's wedding, one of Pete and Kerri's friends from College Church came up to Josh and I and said, "My husband said to me, 'Josh's wife is knocked up tighter than a drum!'" How funny is that? I have to admit that I've never heard that one before. It made me smile. :)

Now, to bring a little more clarity to my last blog...

I'm not uncomfortable (well, I am... but not unbearably so or any more than expected. In fact, I'm really much less uncomfortable than I expected.), and I'm not unexcited about the coming of the next baby. I really don't even mind the contractions themselves. I guess what is more the problem is that I am scared of actually giving birth again. Having Jenna was hell. The labor wasn't terrible, but the aftermath was literally the worst experience of my life. The pain was excruciating, and I still have nightmares about trying to get up and move around after all the stitches. I really don't want what happened to happen again. However, I am also terrified of the alternative. C-sections scare the poo out of me. I've been doing a lot of reading about them because I know that it is a very real possibility. What I read isn't pretty. There can be so many bad side affects for mom and baby... I don't know. Major surgery just isn't that appealing. I'm just really getting scared of both options, and I'm trying to remember why I thought it would be a good idea to have another baby...
