Guess this memory


Dani, over at Dani's Daily Drop, has introduced a game called Monday Memory Madness. In this game, you can write about any memory. See if you can guess this memory from my random thoughts on that day.

"Why is my husband whistling?"

"If I wanted water, I would have asked for it."

"The book didn't tell me about that procedure."

"Oh, no! Another one is coming."

"Does everyone have to watch?"

"What do you mean that it is too late for pain medicine?"

You know when they say that you forget all the labor pains? Once I'm in that hospital bed again, that memory comes back to me real quick!

This must be the birth of one of your babies. Great memories. :)

Wendy said...

So, it seems your husband whistles when he's nervous? Too funny! My husband tried to keep himself from gagging!

T Rex Mom said...

Oh yes, child birth. I almost forgot! Funny how that works!

Love the new header!

You know, I forget the actual pain, but oh, how I remember the contractions, and the breaking of the water, and the actual birth. I mean, I know, I remember that it hurt, but I literally remember the circumstances around it, minute by minute.
Your memory madness was awesome!

I had both of my babies by c-section. I cannot even begin to imagine the amount of pain you were in.
I love your new header. Beautiful flowers!

Humor is wrapping in those lines!

Though Im not a father, and Im not a husband, I understand that women never meant to put humor in those meant-to-be serious lines.

I wonder if I will be encountering them, too. ;)

Great blog, Septembermom!

It's a different avenue of words here, yet I find this blog very interesting...and I'm still reading 'em!

Kudos!

Those are great!! I'm right there with you on the "too late for pain medication!" That was a shock to the system. Thanks for reminding me of those memories. :)

Yes I am sure most can relate. But so funny the remembering. I too had C sections, but also labour first ouch the worst of both.

Thanks for sharing that.

Also love the pink tulip header! And - shudder - now I know why I was too scared to ever have children... (I'll stick to my furry four-legged ones!)

Dani said...

This is great!!! I'm so happy to see what you've done with the game! Next week I'll hopefully have Mr. Linkie up so it can be linked on my post too. Love this! Thanks!

Heather said...

Uhhg, I definitely think I'll freak out if everyone wants to watch... although, I've heard that you don't care by that point - you're just ready to get the baby out!

Michelle said...

Sadly, I had that one figured out from the husband whistling on ;) I'm not sure what that says about my husband. Unfortunately, I only did labor once. Because Mister Man ended up being an unplanned C-section, they made me go that route with Little Miss. And I'm still unhappy about that.

Love the new header.
And no situation is more prickly than childbirth.

TheChicGeek said...

That was great and a fun meme :) I think I'll try that one sometime too.
You have a lovely blog! I love the colors and the pretty pink flowers!

Andrea said...

I had a c-section with Deaglan but did labour for about 10 hours. I took an epidural midway through so I can't say I really went through labour in that way. I really have so much respect for women like you who have done it FOUR times Kelly! You really are my hero. Anytime I feel self-pity these days, I think about you with three growing boys running around and a three year old princess. Thanks for the email yesterday. I'm home on Mondays so it was a nice thing to get this morning.
