W...Thanks for letting us know how hard you worked. With an ill husband much of the focus is on him but you are the star. Yes Phil I am sure you know it. Brought back days of working labor and delivery. I never had the joy of childbirth but that was a choice.<br />All I can say is the most ignorant ask those dumb questions, and she was not much of a nurse to know that a week after delivery you would have a bit of a "belly" obviously not trained in the arts of birthing or much else.<br />It is sad that you struggle to maintain and there are such clueless comments. "Father forgive them for they know not what they do" or say.. Take care and keep on blogging we love to know how you are doing on the "other side of illnes". Take care!Preferred Customer/ Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00410738006870540165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1087705703867412555.post-62730510654122744332010-05-15T21:30:35.886-04:002010-05-15T21:30:35.886-04:00congratulations, cassie. loved reading the details...congratulations, cassie. loved reading the details and significance of your kids' names. we are so thrilled for you and keep you and phil in our thoughts!joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04446357945972523890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1087705703867412555.post-21852842732565494992010-05-12T13:28:32.021-04:002010-05-12T13:28:32.021-04:00Bible significant names rule coz I have one.

The other two were bald except for a little blonde peach fuzz... a full head of dark hair was NOT what we expected!<br /><br />Ellen, I'm using this:<br />http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2864115<br />I initially tried a more expensive product but I like this better. I started binding the day I came home from the hospital and I pretty much only take it off to shower and sleep. (I wear it under my shirt so I don't have to take it off to nurse.) After the baby is born it kinda feels like your guts are gonna fall out and this helps a ton, plus it helps everything to go back where it belongs a little more quickly. <br /><br />Becky, I didn't know if she would be okay and I was pretty much terrified. Even after I heard her cry it was still frightening because of her wheezing... I was so thankful to be in a hospital with so many competent medical people taking care of her and comforting me.Cassiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13526228213366026025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1087705703867412555.post-26477839855154501452010-05-10T23:56:23.333-04:002010-05-10T23:56:23.333-04:00Wow--what a story!

Wha...OMG the nurse asking you if you were pregnant! What an idiot! I remember being amazed at what people thought they could say to me. I thought at the time that I was the only pregnant woman who they'd ever seen, apparently.<br /><br />I loved reading this story. Were you scared when they were trying to get her to cry or did you know she would be okay? I am so thankful that she is and how amazing that your holding her had such an instant effect on her.<br /><br />Rock those 36D's, woman.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517252487552392654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1087705703867412555.post-56935735146313177602010-05-10T20:44:13.954-04:002010-05-10T20:44:13.954-04:00You are a total rock star, especially with your 36...You are a total rock star, especially with your 36D's, hehe!

So sorry you had to labor so long, but it was truly worth it. I love how you chose the kids' names. What an inspiration.<br /><br />Don't worry about the art project mess.

Glad to hear the breast feeding is going well, (I loved the feeling of my babies next to me.) I've said it before, but I'm going to say it again, Ruby is beautiful. I have to say I was a bit surprised about the hair, all mine were born bald, and for some reason I imagined she would be sporting a look like her daddy. ;DLorna A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14476134649136494702noreply@blogger.com
