I work with what I've got....which is a scant more than "And, Miss Scarlett, I don't know nothin' 'bout birthin' babies."

Once they got the epidural into her the rest was just killing time, so I kept her humored. She was laughing so hard that her auto-monitoring sensors had the nurses visiting often to see what was going on as things kept spiking and in hysterics as the contractions were about 30 seconds apart and didn't realize the baby was just about there.

Laughter is the best medicine.....

With my first child I would probably eaten the hay, mash or anything else you offered me!

My water broke as I sat down in my BFFs car on our way to lunch. The baby was breach so I had a Cesarean and they would not feed me anything but clear liquids until they were sure it would stay down. I WAS STARVING!!!! By the time I got solid food, I would have eaten just about anything, hay included!​

​

My first was a boring story of several trips to the hospital with false labor, then I went into actual labor at 3 in the morning. She was born 12 hours later. I don't remember eating, I just remember feeding her and showing her off to my g-parents, and that they made me spend the night in the hospital, to "make sure that everything was okay".

I still had to sign out AMA 25 hours after she was born.

Once I got her home, she didn't let me sleep for six years, so I enjoyed nights in the hospital after that. lol

If the hospital staff had cows I would have turned them into whoppers!

Yup. I'm a picky eater, but I didn't care what it was after having the babies.

I just drank tea

we had no coffee

so sorry.
(and a little bit of

, but mostly

)

For me 'no coffee' = migraine headaches. Perhaps I am a coffee addict. Perhaps?

Perhaps.

Drinking coffee and watching the turkey poults learn from the chicks.
Tomorrow we are suppose to get some nice weather finally!

I want poults. What breed do you have?
I want to get some Narragansett one of these days.

Sourland is it you casting spells with the weather again. We should have flip flop weather here this week. I think that 73 is flip flop weather.

First of all, anything over about 65 is flip flop weather (especially after enduring months and months of anything under 65, and even more especially if it's been below 50 at any point). Second, we had flip flop weather today, but I wore my boots b/c it's still soggy here.

Soon it will be flip flop weather all the time, so I will spend weekends and other days "off" in my flip flops!

73 Is very cold I know this because it is my husbands choice for Air conditioner setting.

You're lucky; mine doesn't put on the air conditioner above 65.

Wow. I would've given up something easier....like breathing.

When I was in school, I would give up (hold on to your hats, folks) chocolate milk. The chocolate part; it was the only time I drank white milk and I counted the days until Lent was over, I put a dime or something in my Lent bank thing every school day, even though there was no difference in price of chocolate vs. white (and even though my dad paid for my milk).

Whoa, if your entire flock goes broody, that MIGHT be my fault, but not this weather. The consensus is that this is Alaskan's fault - no snow, grass turning green, above freezing temperatures in Homer, Alaska. It's Alaskan's fault. Scheduled for here - Tuesday snow - Thursday snow - it's March in NJ, folks.

My NHs just started laying (well, one of them did anyway). Give me a couple of months to get everybody laying and to get a good clutch of eggs built up. Then I would be greatly appreciative of your broody dance. Okay?

Yeah, the weather is Alaskan's fault!

I feel much better now!!! No more trying to catch chickens (unless they're trying to sleep).

Love this thread!

I showed this to my 16 year old son. One of his favorite hobbies is chasing our roo around the pasture trying to catch him. He usually gets him but not until the roo is cornered in the pen!

Fun weather day (not).

Rain until about noon then switching to sleet then snow. They already sent a message school will let out early so I have to decide how long it is safe to stay at work before I call it a day. Luckily the kids are old enough that I don't have to beat them home.

(We need a crawling emoticon) Coffee.

Tea Chick I have a trio of Bourbon Red, a trio of Sweetgrass that Porter mixed with Royal Palm to bring down the size, and a pair of Bronze.

I tried abt. 5 times my first year to get Narragansett's and all the places I bought from sexed them and sold me all toms! I gave up on them! One day if I decide to try again I will only buy hatching eggs.
