Much Respect

So I had a baby, well another one a little man this time, I had told myself just like I told myself with soph that I was going to go over so I would not be disappointed when my due date came and went,... Well with soph my dr. must of had a vacation planned and freely offered to induce me a week early, and as for aksel well heres his story,...
  let me just start off by saying I thought that giving birth was a breeze, because everything went so well with soph, went in, got hooked up, got my epidural and about 7 hours later she came out,... well this time around was a little more painful ok ALOT more painful. I now have so much respect for you moms who give birth naturally,..
Anyways it was just a normal day and I was cleaning up the house getting it ready for family to come easter weekend and ironing Johannes work shirts that I had been putting off for like a week,... then it came a contraction just normal I thought, earlier I was looking at an app on my phone that sends daily reminders to you how many more days you have till you have your baby, and I was feeling nervous that the time had been passing so quickly! so after the contraction I noticed the lovely feeling of wetting my pants, awesome, then I realized it was more then that, panicked for a minute and sent Johannes 2 texts and skyped him at work knowing he would think it was a joke, finally I convinced him it wasnt he came home took soph to a neighbor and off we went. Still in shock that I was having a baby 16 days before his due date I was in a really good mood, no pain just dealing with my broken water problem,... anyway fast foward into the hospital, I managed to pack everything I didnt need in the rush that we left, so Johannes went back home and got the stuff I really needed,... while I chilled on a bouncy ball and ate my dinner, after that gave the hot tub in my room a try got bored and got out, not to mention it relaxed me to the point of no contractions. By the time 11:30 rolled around still not in pain we decided to go to sleep, BAM 2:00 smacks me in the face with an ugly contraction. (I never got to the point of painful contractions with soph). So call the nurse hoping to get my relief well by the time it came I had HORRIBLE contractions like lose control and cant calm down, Ugh! so after about four of those beauties I got my epidural, which only nummed my right side, awesome. So after laying on my left side trying to get it numb it finally happened, then fast foward to pushing point, well right before that, Thinking to myself, hmmm I can feel these contractions again prettty good I ask the nurse if I can push my pain reliever button to pump up the drugs, her answer was no, that I needed to be able to feel the pressure so I know when to push, flash back to soph I was pain free and could still feel the need to push. Well after asking her 3 more times and giving Johannes the omg im going to feel every little thing, save me look, he tried to reason with her and the answer was still no, and now its to late. Ok so you know in the movies where women give birth and they are screaming weird crap, death threats and about to rip there husbands hand off? ya that was me, seriously. I have never EVER been in so much pain in my life, I cant even remember what I said or why I said it, all I remember is the dr. telling me to listen to him during the contraction and I was about ready to kick him in the balls and tell him to listen to me during the contraction, Seems over dramatic right? no not in the slighest,... so aksel came out and the ONLY thing that was good about my epidural wearing off before due time was the fact that my recovery has been awesome.
So here were are Im in love all over again, and its awesome, but I will never go thru something like that again EVER if I can help it.

So once again to all you amazing women out there that have super human powers and have natural child birth without threatening to kill someone, or rip that baby out yourself, your my hero.

My life in boxes

Well we have semi moved to Switzerland,.. we have been there since the 2nd of Jan. But our stuff has been in Munich,.. so that means playing soccer in the living room with soph is the highlight of my day. Not to mention the fact that we have gone to swisscom 5 times to try to get a phone and internet and every time we have gone we do not have the right papers,... Apparently you have to prove to them your Swiss, (which Johannes is but doesn't have a proper Swiss id, and his passport is from Austria), and having a family book proving he is Swiss plus registration plus a Swiss id card from his childhood inst enough,... so we have to wait until my visa type papers some stating that I can legally live there or for Johannes to get his Swiss id card in the mail, to get any type of phone or internet. So that's been really fun living the past few weeks in a bare apartment, with no contact with anyone,  well our landlord who has been very kind to us, borrowed us a park bench type table so we have somewhere to eat, and a mattress so we don't have to sleep on a blow up one. So its not all bare, but thanks to training days for Johannes and trying to rent a truck we had to wait about a month to get our stuff. So the week has finally come after what felt like a year of waiting, that we get to have our stuff. So after doing that really super fun glucose test at the Dr. and having my blood taken three times,  Sophie and I took our sketchy fall apart car for the 3.5 hour drive yesterday (thankfully it made it/ and it will be sold ) to Munich so that I can get a head start on packing, and cleaning,  also to have internet/ contact with my family :) Thankfully we have only lived here for a year and haven't gathered that much crap, and we didn't bring anything other then clothes with us from the states so it made packing not so annoying. Then when Johannes comes Friday with some man power we will load up the truck and head back to Switzerland and make our new house a home! yay, and hopefully get phone and internet soon,.... And I am still prego yay! three more months left, getting large, and trying to enjoy this pregnancy, and my sleep knowing that in threeish months I will have forgotten what a full nights rest feels like. But we are so excited to meet our little guy, and introduce him into our crazy life!  also it was nice to get back to Utah for a few weeks and see family and some of our friends, And to eat some or all of the fast food and some of the restaurants that we have missed. So until next time when I have my precious internet :)
