well i'm kind of tired and stressed 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 3:41 PM
That is understandable. What are you feeling stressed about? Is it the pregnancy and your dad or is other stuff going on too?How are you feeling emotionally? 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 3:47 PM
emotionally i cry over anything. 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 3:50 PM
That is natural. Are you doing anything fun to try to take your mind off things for a little while? 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 3:53 PM
i try but nothing sounds to fun 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 4:07 PM
It sounds like you are feeling pretty depressed. I know how hard it can be to enjoy things when you feel that way. Have you talked to your mom at all again? So what are you up to today and this weekend? 


Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 4:30 PM
i tried calling her again but i had to leave a message. i don't have plans for the weekend yet 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 4:48 PM
I would say go have some fun, but with the holidays coming up I am sure everywhere will be packed with cranky shoppers. Are you going to see your mom for the holidays at all? How is the baby doing? 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 4:56 PM
well i'm growing so i guess it's doing good. 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 5:01 PM
Have you given any more thought to what YOU want to do? 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 15th, 2005 5:05 PM
yeah i'm giving it up for adoption

Hi Lyndsey, How are you doing? I hear your kind of stressed! I bet theres a lot on your mind. I want you to know that you can always talk to me, and if you want, you can call me collect or I can call you and I would love to pray with you. You should ask God to show you what he wants for your baby. And if adoption is the way, pray that He leads you to a loving couple were he or she will be well taken care of and loved.
Talk to you soon!
Janice

Jess are you around i could use someone to talk to now 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 9:52 AM
Hi Lyndsey,

I am here, what is going on? Let me say I am sorry in advance though, I have to go into a meeting in about 10 minutes for about and hr and then I will be back. 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 9:57 AM
just stressed and i didn't sleep to well. i kept having nightmares about the baby and stuff. 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 10:00 AM
What are the nightmares about? Stress and depression can definitely cause sleep problems and nightmares. I have been there. Again I am so sorry but my meeting is now. Write me back and I will respond when I get back in about an hour. 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 10:11 AM
well the nightmares were about the delivery and pain that goes with it i was screaming and blood was everywhere. I woke up and i was sweating so bad i had to change my pajamas. 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 10:31 AM
Wow that sounds pretty scary. Sounds like you are having some serious anxiety about the birth. Obviously I have never been in your position, but I know with most of my friends they were pretty much loopy on medication and not that aware of what was going on and although it hurts, it is a blur right after. I know that doesn't help you feel better. Maybe if you find someone who will committ to being there and helping you during delivery it will help ease your fears knowing someone will be there to support you. I know we previously talked about a Lamaze coach or maybe adoptive parents. 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 10:48 AM
yeah i'm getting a lamaze coach soon. 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 10:53 AM
Isn't it weird how bad dreams can still terrorize us the next day, even though we know it is only a dream? Can you just relax and take it easy today? 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 10:54 AM
well i'll try too but i do have a lot of work to do 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 10:56 AM
What do you have going on today? 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 10:59 AM
well i gotta go to the bank the grocery store the dry cleaners and
plus the house is a mess and i have laundry to do. But to be honest i don' t feel like doing this but i have to. 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 11:03 AM
I can understand that, errands are no fun. But sometimes if you just get out there and do them you start to feel better because you are accomplishing something. Are you still as tired today? 

Name: Janice | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 11:14 AM
Hi Lyndsey, How are you today?? 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 11:21 AM
Yeah i'm pretty tired. 

Name: Janice | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 11:22 AM
Have you had any more thoughts of what you are going to do with your baby? We are still looking for to adopt. We have been trying to have a baby for 9 yrs...the drs don't know why its not happening, We want to be parents more then anything! 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 11:23 AM
yeah i'm giving it up for adoption. 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 11:26 AM
Are you taking any vitamins at all to help with energy? 

Name: Lyndsey | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 11:27 AM
no but what do you recommend? 

Name: Jess | Date: Dec 16th, 2005 11:32 AM
Well because you are pregnant probably the safest thing to do if you are not already is to take a good over the counter pre-natal vitamin. It is a mix of a bunch of different vitamins. When my sister was pregnant they helped so much with being tired that she had to take them first thing in the morning because if she took them at night she couldn't sleep.
