I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Buffy ,'Lessons'


Spike's Bitches 32: I think I'm sobering up.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Pretty soon I expect. It's going to be fairly boring (except for staring into her daughter's face with adoration) for the next several days.

Cool. Mebbe we can work something out before the weekend. I wanna see Matilda.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Yeah, the stool softeners are a gift. We got the Self Medication Pack of lasix, stool softeners, advil, and tylenol. After all that pushing followed by a section, she's going to need the stool softeners like whoa.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Amen, Plei. Wish I had taken them in the hospital instead of 6 days later.

The status is NOT quo.

Congrats, ND! Very proud of you, you rock star.

Yeah, the night nurse, when we switched rooms from delivery to that other one and they handed me my pills, gushed about them.

As the L&D nurse in our childbirth class had gushed about the mesh panties, and I had already discovered that, oh yeah, that was the stuff, I totally took her advice to heart.

I wish I had taken my mom's advice about the panty girdle thingie when I got home. I don't think my C-section pooch would be as bad if I had.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yay!!!!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Happy Baby, Hec, JZ and Emmett! Happy Birthday, Matilda!

move out and draw fire

Man oh man - I only had 9 hours of back labor and 2.5 hours of pushing, and am not needlephobic, and it was quite the exhausting experience for me. I'm so proud of JZ!

And I'm glad you guys were well taken care of by the staff, and glad they did a C-section for Matilda. We were *this* close to a C-section here (in the States it would have been done for sure, and earlier), and Mal being transverse and then stuck meant that delivery was, well, in retrospect, touch and go for him. He was rushed off to get him warm and breathing and not blue, and there wasn't any post-delivery bonding.

So, yay for the c-section, and again how brave you all were!

Also, the A's have clinched. So all is well with the world.
