@Glume: I'm pretty sure they stopped using laughing gas a long time ago. They pretty much just give you a epidural. When I got my epidural, I had a contraction at the same time and oh boy did that hurt really really bad. But as of right now. Get as much sleep as you can! Plus, try to organize the clothes before the baby comes. What I found the easiest was have the size that they're wearing plus have the next two sizes up ready in the dresser (or where ever you're putting them) cause they will go through them pretty fast. Like one drawer is for the size their wearing, next drawer is the next size and then the next size after that. So, I can just switch the drawers out and have it on top.

@Gatorlec: honestly, I have to applaud you for having that many kids. For me one is enough. I'm one out of 5 kids and I think that was crazy. But, that's pretty funny with your daughter.

@TheGreatPretender: awe. Do you take them anywhere to do arts and crafts? Cause I know where I live at Joanns, they have some classes that little ones can take. I did one or two when I was a kid(in Girl Scouts) and I absolutely loved it. Plus, there might a few other things in the area that you live that does those things other than Joanns

@TheGreatPretender: I have a 2 1/2 month old. He doesnt do to much right now. Other than smile/laugh at me, holds his head up pretty good, eats, sleeps and poop. So, there's not much going on with him right now.

@TheGreatPretender: yeah. Plus, he's been really interested in sitting up and everything. So I bought him this.

But, he's a little ham.

@TheGreatPretender: I don't think he's ready for a bouncer yet. But I know pretty soon he'll be ready for one

@Riveraka: Tbh I never intended on having a single kid. But I was not careful and I ended up really liking being a dad. After my first, my late wife decided to not use birth control but also not try to conceive. And then after she had our third (the 18 year old daughter) she got her tubes tied. And two other mothers (I have four baby Mama's) decided not to tell me they messed up their birth control. : /

But obviously I love my kiddos either way.

@Riveraka: I'm going to a midwifery instead of a hospital because I really do not trust hospitals and the last doctor I had let me down in a big way. (I actually can't think of a doctor that hasn't let me down in a big way.) But the midwives showed us a child birth video from their recent past, and there was definitely laughing gas. But I've experienced said gas, and all it did was make me light headed and giggly.. I doubt it will do anything for pain. I guess that is the trade-off for a cheaper more caring alternative. Hopefully I'll have a quick birth and the most painful parts will be over quickly.
I like that tip about clothing. I have one onesie and a bib right now XD so I should probably get on that. I really have not bought anything for baby yet. I'm so out of my element. My mother bought some things off of a lady she works with; a stroller, a crib and a walking-play-table thing... but they all look questionable safety-wise. I don't want to put baby Chance in something dangerous :/

@Gatorlec: that's just crazy.

@Miss Sandman: Oh yeah. He's perfectly healthy. Hes growing like a weed. I had headaches all the time while I was pregnant. It wasn't fun, but, just take it easy and drink a lot of water. Cause that'll hel a lot. But, I didnt know emergency c-sections were a thing until they were rushing me out of the room to go get one.

@Glume: thats different. I didn't even know that. But, with the clothes, that methond works really good. Make sure you had a LOT of pacifiers. Cause honestly, since my son has been born, we've lost like 6 or more? And having one helps him go to sleep at night.
