Thank you for the advice, it really feels good to talk to someone else or than my "first-time-father" husband. I have been sipping on Ginger Ale and it seems to be helping. I will make a point to ask for an extra Epidural dosage. I also like the idea of the watermelon(that's my favorite fruit), I will give that a try. I am praying for a health baby and an easy pregnancy and not to hurt my husband who just said something about my cooking.
I will keep you posted on the three of us. Don't be alarm if I fail to mention the husband, I my have to gag him from time to time. Just a little wife humor.
