When Will ObiWanGinobili Pop?

[Kori Ellis]

As many of you know, Obi is about to have her baby. She's being induced on the 21st at 6:30am or so. When do you think she will give birth?

Place your bets.

[Shelly]

Obi, if you don't mind my asking, why are you being induced? I didn't realize you can schedule it ahead of time.

[angel_luv]

All right Obi! I need a new pair of V-Bookie shoes so please take my bet into serious consideration! = )

[angel_luv]

I want to bet it happens quick for you sake but I don't know... lol! = )

[Kori Ellis]

Obi, if you don't mind my asking, why are you being induced? I didn't realize you can schedule it ahead of time.

Maybe she's not being induced but that's what I infered from the other thread.

[ObiwanGinobili]

Obi, if you don't mind my asking, why are you being induced? I didn't realize you can schedule it ahead of time.


I don't mind.
honestly?
out of convience.... I seem to dilate and efface ahead of time too so it makes the window of spontaneous labor even bigger.
meanwhile my mom and my in laws both live almost 2hrs away, i have no car yet and no one who can watch our daughter on short notice.

so it just works out alot better to have a day planned and everyone's schedule set up ahead of time.

Cool--But what if you go into labor before the 21st? Kori needs to make that an option! :lol

Both of mine were born within one day of their due date!

[Kori Ellis]

Cool--But what if you go into labor before the 21st?

Then that would count for "Earlier than 10am". :lmao

[Shelly]

Then that would count for "Before 10am". :lmao

:lmao

Touche!

[ObiwanGinobili]

Then that would count for "Earlier than 10am". :lmao


yeah.. :lol

also I'm being induced 5 days early.

[angel_luv]

May it be quick and painless. = )

[SpursWoman]

Before I bet my hard-earned vCash....are you having an epidural? That'll change the outcome signicantly.


:lol

[SpursWoman]

Oh, and I was "scheduled" to be induced at a Monday dr. visit for the following Monday...and I went into labor on my own that Wednesday... ;) :lol

[ObiwanGinobili]

Before I bet my hard-earned vCash....are you having an epidural? That'll change the outcome signicantly.


:lol


yes. oh dear god yes. :lol
last time I had an epidural also. I went in at 6:30 and had her at 3:13. I got the epi 1/2 way thru.

[ObiwanGinobili]

Oh, and I was "scheduled" to be induced at a Monday dr. visit for the following Monday...and I went into labor on my own that Wednesday... ;) :lol

aghhhhhh! don't jinx me!!!

[Shelly]

Like I said...

I rank epidurals right up there with air conditioning!

[SpursWoman]

aghhhhhh! don't jinx me!!!


Oh, and that scheduled induction would have been 4 days before the actual due date ... my first was early. :lol

[1Parker1]

Obiwan, best buddy ol pal.........for your sake, I hope I'm right and you have your brand new baby girl by 11:01-noon :)

:elephant Almost time!

[TheTruth]

Obi is pregnant?

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Obi is pregnant?

Obi is a woman? :lol

[ObiwanGinobili]

Obiwan, best buddy ol pal.........for your sake, I hope I'm right and you have your brand new baby girl by 11:01-noon :)

:elephant Almost time!

if losing vBookie makes you come down here (even if it is to kick my ass) then I'll do whatever is necessary! :)

[1Parker1]

Awww! I can't wait........u sure you don't want to name her Parker Duncan Ginobili????!

[Despot]

Please reschedule for a couple of days early??? pretty please???

Say she has it on the 18th....does the thread still close on the 20th????

~Looking around with shifty eyes~
I may have a cook slip some castor oil into your breakfast


Edit: Just wanted to add, I am just joking, and I wish you the best

[Trainwreck2100]

Isn't it a conflict of interest if obi makes a bet for all we know she'll hold it in to keep from losing

[ObiwanGinobili]

fuck that.. if I could I'd pop the little spurs fanette out right now! :lmao

actually now that it comes down to it I'm afraid to bet my vBookie on it and lose! :oops..... but I'll be placing my bet later today.

[1Parker1]

^^You better not cheat! (Although, if you make sure you pop out sometime between 11:01 and noon, I'll be sure to send you an authentic Philly Cheesesteak **wink, wink**)

:)

[ObiwanGinobili]

I cannot be bought.











































for so little.. really. one cheesesteak??

[1Parker1]

:lol Fine, how about TWO Philly Cheesesteaks (one for you and one for Emo), an authentic Philly CheeseCAKE, and I'll throw in a Rocky souveniere :)

[ObiwanGinobili]

awwww shit! now your talking!!
:lmao

[1Parker1]

:lol I KNEW you could be bought......with the right price of course :)

[Ishta]

I bet based solely on my own experience with inductions. My second daughter was born alot faster than the first.. So based on my own unscientific calculations, I picked 12-1..Good luck Obi, and make sure you get something before they give you the epidural...That way it doesn't hurt when they stick that huge needle in your back :) . I learned that one with the second baby, and corrected that shit with the third(and last)baby:lol .

[ObiwanGinobili]

last time i never felt the needle in my back..... jsut the sweet sweet heaven it brought! :lmao
but i was in a shit load of pain at the time. So I may take your advice seeign as I will not be allowing myslef to go that long again! :tu thanks

[1Parker1]

Oh my gosh....they stick a needle in your Back?! Ouch....

[ObiwanGinobili]

think of it as spinal novcaine.. they shut off all your pain receptors from mid-chest down.

it is the one medical advancement that deserves a nobel prize!!!!

[Ishta]

Oh my gosh....they stick a needle in your Back?! Ouch....
A reallllly big one, but at the time you really don't care, as you want the pain to stop! But once you do get it, life is good:) . I swear I don't know how people did it before epidurals..My best friend had her daughter at home and tried to tell me it didn't hurt..Right i was there and heard her ass screaming and cussing her butt off :lol :lol :lol

Me, too ... even with an epidural the second one wasn't slowed down too much with the epidural, he wasn't messing around. :lol

[SpursWoman]

Oh my gosh....they stick a needle in your Back?! Ouch....


Yes...I had one at 8cm and non-stop contractions. Kind of nerve-wrecking when you have to be absolutely still so the anesthesiologist doesn't paralyze you with the needle while having that feeling that your guts are being ripped out in the most painful way possible.

:lol :wow :lol

YOU'RE PUTTING THAT NEEDLE WHERE?!?!?!?!?!





















ok...hurry the fuck up. :lmao

[thispego]

obi's about to go into labor??? color me jealous!!!

[angel_luv]

obi's about to go into labor??? color me jealous!!!

:lol
It is funny to me how we say going into ( i.e. beginning) labor when a woman is about to deliver.
Personally, I think women should get full credit for laboring the whole nine months. :spin

[ObiwanGinobili]

and with this single statement you have become my new hero. :makeout
I hereby nominate Angel-Luv for president of the united states, to run on the commonsense ticket! :tu

[Horry For 3!]

I wonder if Obi is going to bet on herself :lol

[SpursWoman]

Why not? When it comes to things like this, even she has no inside information. :lol

[ObiwanGinobili]

yeah, I'm betting on myself. :lol
I just can't make up my mind which hour I want to bet and for how much..... :nerd
this is the hardest vBookie decision ever! :lmao

[ObiwanGinobili]

btw - some people are betting that I'll be in labor 3x's longer then last time?
man thats bad mojo...

[Shelly]

Oh my gosh....they stick a needle in your Back?! Ouch....

Believe me...labor pains are so intense that you won't even notice the needle.

With my first, as soon as I walked in the door I asked for one. The nurse was all, "Honey, we have to check you in first!"

[Shelly]

My second was faster too. With #1, I went into labor around 5am and had him at 12:38. He would have been born a little earlier, but he turned. Son #2, I went into labor at 7ish am and had him at 10:25 am!

All my sister's kids were 3 weeks early. With her 2nd, by the time she got to the hospital, she was crowning. Poor thing ended up having natural childbirth with all three, they were that fast.

[iminlakerland]

Awww Lil Obi is gona share my birthday!

[ObiwanGinobili]

aww crap. :(
I was too busy hemming and hawwing to actually make up my mind and place a bet.
:bang. god I'm an idiot.


:lol

[SWC Bonfire]

This was closed before I could bet on it.

That's OK. I've already staked naming rights on the outcome earlier in the Real women thread.

I'm curious - what names do you like?

and thye better not be "batman" :lol

[SWC Bonfire]

Either Shaneequa, Kaneesha or Locqueesha. :lol

I like Kylie, Samantha or Clarie.

If she has red hair, I'd name her Aurore (after the goddess of dawn, not the oldsmobile:lol)

[batman2883]

what the hell is wrong with Batman????

I like personally

Idalys
Janell
Candice

Shaneequa Kaneesha Locqueesha C-------?

Claire is a good middle name.. I like it.
My mom's name is Samantha BTW. I love her - just not that much. j/k.
seriously my sister is already named after my mom.

Aurore is nice too... especially since I'm named after a minor goddess.

[SWC Bonfire]

Cassandra, right?

Cassandra was given the ability to see the future but cursed that no one would believe her predictions for being a c__tease to Apollo. She was actually a princess of Troy:lol

yes. she was ostricized by her family for choosing to be a priestess over a power marriage. Apollo wanted ehr bad but she wouldn't give in.
her name means : "temptress of men, and keeper of sheep" a bad bad combo if TLONG ever runs into her .. :lol

oh, adn ispell it with only 1 s..... engraving is still a bitch.

[TheTruth]

My first son will be named Shannon Terrell Vincent, in honor of Shannon Sharpe and Terrell Davis.

[angel_luv]

That sounds like the name of somebody important. Nice pick!

Tata...ha ha ha ha ha haa

[2Blonde]

I wasn't able to get my vbookie bet in on time, but I still claim my rights to the 3:30-4pm time slot. And I'm still trying to get someone to name a kid after me. Kara is a really pretty name...Think about it. :angel

[Kori Ellis]

I'll re-open the vBookie so more people can bet.

[2Blonde]

THanks !!!!! :spin

[ObiwanGinobili]

cool.
I still couldn;t make up my mind so I let emo pick the time. :tu

[Summers]

D'oh! I meant to send Obi a nice little PM today to wish her luck (and try to bribe her into my time slot). :lol Anyway, thinking nice thoughts for Obi and newest little Spurs fan.

[Vashner]

The name should be a tool to help the child thru life. Don't use a generic name. It should be easy to remember, stand out in a crowd and make a teacher like them for better grades. Not to crazy but not common.

[Ishta]

Any news yet?

[tw05baller]

results?

[Kori Ellis]

Kori,

Hello! wanted to let you know the "results" !
It appears that today is payday for thispego because Eloisa was born at 6:12 pm after 7 1/2 hrs of labor.

Obviously things did not go as planned! LOL!
I got to the hospitol right on time , only to find out that they didn't have any room for me !!! WHA? I had an
appointment ! So I ended up waiting behind 2 other women for 3 hours. Finally get in my room, they do the
paperwork, hook me up and leave................ an hour and a half later they realize the backup battery on my IV machine is dead and
I have not been getting any "start labor" meds. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

But once all that got straightened out, and we really got going ( at lunch time!! ) - things moved well and quickly.
Baby Eloisa weighed 6lbs 10oz and was 17 1/2 inches long. A shortie like the rest of the family!


Feel free to post this e-mail, I'll be on later in the week. I lost $2500 in vBucks!! But I don't mind.
