I couldn't breath this morning for a good 5 minutes.
I just happen to be awake at 6am, reading emails and i get one from baby center about a recall. Ok so I read it. It's about Mylicon Infant Gas Drops - Dye Free 1 oz and 1/2 oz bottles sold after October 5th. The FDA found Shards of METAL in certain lot numbers! So I start thinking, I bought a bottle of Dye Free accidentally ( I usually buy the colored one ) 1 week before Halloween at Walmart. My eyes got big, I'm reading the lot numbers, and I go in Bobby's room looking all over for this bottle that Damien said was empty a few days ago. So I'm tearing apart his drawers and I wake Damien up, tell him what is going on. So he starts looking with me. He opens the diaper bag and theres the bottle! I grab it, run in here and look at the computer.... Its the lot after mine was made. THANK GOD!
All I could think is OMG, I gave my baby something with metal in it that could make him sick! HOW THE HELL DOES JOHNSON AND JOHNSON DISTRIBUTE A PRODUCT FOR BABIES WITH METAL SHARDS IN IT! That is something expect from a Chinese Brand, Not from Johnson and Johnson. I'm half tempted to boycott all of their products. They put these babies lives in danger! Aren't there certain precautions, and tests they have to do with every batch of things they make? How is it, the recall wasn't made until November 11th. Over a month after distribution. How did they not realize this before hand? There should be stricter regulations put on ANY medications made for over the counter for children and babies. These drops were suppose to help babies, not make them sick. I will not be buying this product again. I'll stick to Gripe water.
Ok I think i'm done with panicing mommy mode for the moment. :)

My Baby's 1st Cold
My poor Bobby is miserable, and I feel like a horrible mother because I gave it to him. He's sleeping alot, hes not eating alot, and he just looks pitiful at times. We're giving him a lil bit of tylenol here and there incase hes got a sore throat. Not sure what else we can do for the lil guy. He just cries for no reason. Breaks my heart.
We've been suctioning his nose too. I was told to get some Kid nose drops, which im gonna try to find at the store today. I hope it works. I just want him to feel better. I'm also afraid hes giving it back to me, i'm feeling a sore throat comming on. :(
I'm just gonna lock him up forever and Put him in a bubble. That sounds like a plan. Keep him safe, at home, with me always away from all the germs that are hovering out in public.

How Can You Blame 1 Man for the Downfall of a Nation?
I put this question out there for the world.
Why is it Bush's approval rating is in the 27th percentile right now? Especially when 7 years ago it was at an all time high of 90 percent!
September 11th 2001, That's why.
He broke records! 90% of America, Democrats, Republicans and Independants said "GO KICK SOME TERRORIST ASSES, AND DON'T COME HOME UNTIL YOU HAVE OSAMA AND SADDAM'S HEAD ON A STICK!"
Now all you hear is, why did we even get involved in Iraq, your wasting our money, wah wah wah!
Oh how a massive tragedy slips our minds so soon after. Everyone wanted Justice! We were scared, we were pissed, we felt violated and we demanded retaliation for the actions of those men who crashed 4 of our planes. 2 Into the World Trade Center, 1 Into the Pentagon, and 1 into a field. They managed to kill over 2,700 people that day. Mostly American citizens.
We were outraged! We wanted our revenge! And we looked to George W Bush to Get us that Revenge! So he pushed for it, Congress agreed, and there we go! We invade Iraq. We were thrilled. Kill those Terrorist Bastards! Everyone thought that way. May they Burn In Hell! Everyone thought that way! Kill Saddam and Osama! Everyone thought that way!
Now the Majority of those people say, Woooh woooh wooh wait a minute, quit wasting our tax payers money, bring the troops home. What happened to Justice? Revenge? Retribution? Retaliation? 7 years, and people have already forgotten.
Now its Blame Bush for the War, Blame Bush for the Economy, Blame Bush for our lazy asses who won't take a $11 an hour job because we were part of a greedy union who swore they would protect our jobs making $26 an hour as high school drop outs, and now i'm losing everything, It's all Bush's Fault!
No, This is the American People's fault as a Whole. This is Greedy, Veruca Salt America "I want it Now, and I want it Right Now" Attitude!
Time to take responsibility America. I guess you shouldn't have gotten that $250,000 home loan on a house that was only worth $150,000. I guess you should'nt have bought that big gas guzzling F250 Super Crew that you can barely pay to fill up the tank for, let alone the payment and the insurance on it. I guess you really didn't need to run those credit cards up to the Maximums getting your kids Xbox 360s and Playstation 3's, KNOWING the credit card companys were going to be able to double your interest and payment minimums in January 2007.
I can see why other countrys hate us. Were the spoiled little kid down the street who has everything, the pool, the toys, the video games, who thinks we can bully everyone because We're America!
This country needs a serious Time Out to think about what we've done to ourselves. Don't Blame George W. Bush. You did it your own damn self.

Its what everyones saying behind my back...
So i've been told i'm rude, obnoxious and disrespectful.
I'm rude when others are rude to me, obnoxious maybe when I'm drinking and sometimes just for fun, but intending it in a playful way not rudely, but as far as being disrespectful, I respect alot of people, even after disagreeing with them. If you can't joke around, stay away from me.
But I do not give respect to those who imply I'm racist when I vote for McCain and tell me to drive my kia to walmart and give a lead based toy to my baby boy.
Who the hell does he think he is to tell me to give a dangerous toy to MY BABY!
Obviously I'm a bad judge of character, because I thought this guy was a "Friend"
At times I try to tell it like I see it, and some people can't handle that. They'd rather me lie to them and sugar coat and make them feel special. I know how to reserve myself, but I am not going to straight up lie to someone to make them feel warm and cuddly inside.
And I admit at times I'm wrong and say things that I shouldn't. It's called being human. But I try to always appologize if I say something that hurts someone, especially when I wasn't trying to intentionally hurt them.
Its time for him to learn something from his own kid. Respect for others, I think they teach that in preschool.

Tootheache, From Satan Himself...Straight to my Mouth!
I meant to post this Yesterday, So Pretend it was yesterday that you read this lol
OMG, So I was getting ready to go to bed last night, did my normal regiment, take a vicodan, lay down watch Daily Show and Steven Colbert with the hubby on DVR, get ready to fall asleep and out of no where my tooth, which hasn't bothered me since January, GOES NUTS! The pain was awful, so I went brushed my teeth again, flossed, used some mouth wash, still excrutiating pain. So call L&D, they tell me not to come all the way out to their hospital, which is 30 minutes away, go to the closest one, the one 5 blocks away.... HUGE MISTAKE!
They take me into Triage, and she tries to take my blood pressure with the machine 5 times.... ???/?? is what it kept reading so she goes to put the cuff on my lower arm, i tell her, inbetween tears, if you take my blood pressure in my lower are its wrong.... She does it anyways.... 168/118.... My head feels like its gonna explode, they put me in a Trauma room because all other ER beds are full. After an hour and a half of crying, a nurse comes in, asks whats wrong, i tell him about the tooth ache and the fact that i've had a few contractions , 3 to be exact, durring that hour and a half.... he says ok, procedure is once i give you a shot to help your mouth we send you to L&D here to get checked out.... So I'm like ok... This is at 5am... He come back in 15 minutes later, gives me a shot, but completely misses the nerve, i'm still in pain, but it did take some of the edge off... so i'm able to talk again, with out feeling like my heads gonna explode.
He says, ok, i'm discharging you, you'll be going up to L&D in a few... ok no problem... this is at 5:20am.... At 7am My husband finally finds the nurse and says, are you gonna actually discharge her.... They had lost my chart.... no one knew where the other one put it so they couldn't release me until they had the chart.... so they say ok we need you to go to L&D now, I said why, I haven't had a contraction in over 2 hours, they say cuz you wanna get your baby checked out to make sure he's ok... i say, he's moving and kicking me, he's fine.... well if you don't your insurance wont pay for this visit.... fine....
so they finally discharge me.... now they are argueing with each other, where L&D is now in the hospital because they had remodeled it a few months ago and moved it to a different floor.... So you mean you work in this small hospital, and no one even knows what floor the Labor and Delivery department is on..... wow....
So i get upstairs finally about 10 after 7 and i stand there for about 10 minutes cuz i didn't feel like laying down... they were great there, really friendly, super concerned about what they did down in the ER and everything, and even gave me a gift card for my long wait down stairs and the head of L&D asked if she could follow up with me after having the baby, sure no problem...
Fastforward to 2pm this afternoon after sleeping for 3 hours... pain is right back, my dentist wont see me, no other dentist will see me because of the c section being 48 hours away, and i'm feeling like im going to DIE. Got ahold of my Hospital's dental school who says they'll take me as an emergency, get there, after about an hour and a half they numb me... thank God...
Now tomorrow morning at 7am I have to head BACK out there to have the tooth pulled... I just hope I make it through the night....
Moral of the story... if your in pain and you won't take your worst enemy there.... don't go there 9 months pregnant no matter how badly your hurting.... :(
Ok thats my rant... im gonna take a vicodan and try to sleep soon.
