  I obviously have no right to say this... but I think it's probably all worth it. I'm not sure you could find many mothers that would say otherwise. You could look at this this way-- is 3 months of hell worth the person that will be in your life for the rest of your lifetime? If you'd put up with this to keep your husband for the rest of your life, I'm guessing it's safe to say you'll feel that way (maybe even more) about your child. (from the childless one)

  once you hold little josiah and he grabs onto your finger, you will forget all of this.  i know that is cheesy, but i have a feeling it will be very true.

  i hope you feel better.

  BW is right but I totally sympathize.  I'm not having the easiest time right now either and I just have to keep reminding myself that there is an end to all of this.  You can't stay pregnant forever and as long as the baby is healthy there is so much to be grateful for.
  
  What kind of sick are you?  I'm still having contractions and they kicked up on Wednesday in strength and duration and were only 2-3 minutes long.  I got sent to L&D and after 5 hours of good strength contractions on the monitor I was still only 1cm.  I got sent home where the contractions have continued no matter what I do and at my appointment this morning found I'd still made no progress.  Still, he can't stay in there forever so I'm going to get through this and it will be worth it the first time I hear him cry.

  Thanks for the responses everyone.  I guess as it turns out I might have to have my gall bladder removed.  I'm meeting with a surgeon on Monday morning to see if I can wait until after Josiah is born, or if it has to come out right now.  I'm really happy that he is totally oblivious to all of this.  He's been completely healthy, which makes me feel a little better.  I'll know more on Monday and let everyone know what's going on then.

  My sister had her gall bladder suddenly start acting up horribly while she was pregnant.  They were talking about removing it but decided it could wait until after she had the baby.  My niece is now 3 years old and my sister still has her gall bladder   She says it just doesn't bother her anymore. 
  
  Also, isn't that the surgery that Noisy on NEY had when she was like 3 or 4 months along?

  That's good to know about your sister.  I'll try to remember that and think positive.  I'm not sure if Noisy had that surgery or not.  I don't really check out NEY that much anymore.  Maybe I should... Lol.
