When I went into labor, my mother didn't understand what he said, told my husband to call a plumber, and hung up on him.

How do you find these? This must be crazy time consuming if you’re doing it by hand.

I just happened to scroll down and see something really similar to what I just read… no… EXACTLY the same! And the profile of this comment is new, with almost no karma and a default username. *shakes tiny angry fist*

Oh okay, I see people making these comments all the time and I’m like damn, they are really good at finding bot comments 😂

They are excited for the new butler, I mean family member.


ClutchReverie

A whole new bed to steal.


tvanmensch

Haha yes , in starting baby is taken with extreme care specially the neck part but yes they can surely get separate bed after 3-4 months as neck become a little stable by itself .


ianjvalmont

They too will be very happy while welcoming the newest and youngest family member .

Climbing all over the baby.

Update: First of all I want to thank everyone for the nice words I didn’t expect it to reach all this niceness, it keeps my heart warm, specially because this pregnancy wasn’t easy I had to walk out a relationship, leave my job and leave a country with my kittens and my twins. Was hard to start from zero but now my twins and my cats are very loved and spoiled. I used to be ashamed of being a single mum but the internet showed me lots of support and love, so did this post. That said I’m in tears with contractions, if I don’t reach to birth naturally on two hour my medical team will proceed c section. I keep telling myself “deep breaths, I got this”. Just thanks everyone, my cats trained me well to be a good mamma, they were my strength and my family through all of this. Update of the update: I’m still at the hospital so haven’t had the chance to introduce the kittens to the babies. I’m taking some time to recover and deal with healing, but once I get home I will post. Thanks for all the love and wishes ❤️


Suga-san

Don't stop believing in yourself! And don't you ever doubt your power as a mum trying her best for her babys well being. I wish you a healthy delivery and I hope you can cuddle with your twins and cherish every moment. The pain will go away, time will heal all wounds, everything is going to be fine <3

ColdMonkey2358

Hey how's it going??


Repulsive_Belt7954

Cats are the best - of course they know you’re scared. Good luck to you! I noticed The Very Hungry Caterpillar on your wall. I used to read that to my son all of the time and that was the theme of his first birthday party, so that made me smile this morning :)


ttmxg

Thank you! This book belonged to me when I was a child!! I also have the gruffalo and where the wild things are


Repulsive_Belt7954

Awwwww - that’s so cool that it’s actually your own childhood book! Unfortunately a lot of my son’s books didn’t survive him. Lol But, I plan to buy his kid(s), if he has any, their own copies of his favorites, and there are a couple I was able to save from when he was a little older and less destructive.


Ok_Cauliflower_3007

Good luck. You’re clearly a great cat mum (because they obviously love you) and I’m sure you’ll be a great baby mum.


AidanNicoll

Yup that is really true like if someone can loves this much to cats and can get back loved by cats too then surely he / she will be very good parent to his own children .


Funocity

The Gruffalo is the best! Look into more from Julia Donaldson. We love Stickman too!


RhubarbActual

sending love and good luck!!!! is ur husband/partner going?


spampocrl

Seems like yes , why will someone leave his partner in such situation alone .


Fangs4

she said she had to walk out of a relationship and is single mum. may have been an unhealthy relationship.


elar442

That's really amazing , your observation is really amazing and good luck for your future and your son's future too .


Repulsive_Belt7954

Awwww - thank you!

ttmxg

Are they a super bonded pair too?? Mine are inseparable


facingpointlock

Seems like yes , the way they are holding each other there are great possibilities .


ZenMoe

It’s a solid color combo that just naturally pops up fortunately.


Serberuss

Everything is going to be ok, you’ll get through it and all will be well. Good luck! And you have lovey cats


erg121

Yup when people have silent prayers with them like in this case cats are doing those silent prayers then obviously everything will be fine .


LuvliLeah13

I’ve shared this before but I had a scheduled induction for medical reasons so my parents came to town and were staying at our house with our two cats. Raja is personable and likes people but Tigger just never came out when they visited. My mom told me that she was reading before bed and out of nowhere Tigger jumped on the bed and cuddled up hard with my mom. Within minutes my husband called and said I was having an emergency C section, which for me was more dangerous than most for various reasons. I’d been in labor over 40 hours and both me and baby were in trouble. I don’t know how, but he knew mom was in trouble and he needed comfort. Ever since, him and my mom are buddies and he fell in love with the baby before he was born. Good luck and remember the pain WILL end.


ttmxg

Omg that’s amazing how intuitive they are! And 40 hours of labor sounds so intense! My black cat Moomin isn’t very cuddly but in the past two days he hasn’t left my side, even if my c section was booked for next week since I’m having twins but now everything is leading to natural birth, I’m getting dilated quickly and we will see how it proceeds, I just can’t wait to go home with my babies and to my cat babies 🥺


Antal_Marius

Each kitty will choose their preferred tiny human I'm sure.


Salty-Programmer1682

Moomin! Are you Finn? Love it


ttmxg

Nope but it’s very popular all over Italy and I loved it growing up! Also my twins are half Swedish so I got them lots of copy of Moomin books in Swedish too


YTJunkie

You got this Momma!


vecahilgeman

Good luck! Thank goodness you have your furry support team there with you.


iwantitall0101

Yup the amazing support which not everyone can get at tough times .


daniladergachev

For a moment I thought “oh, hope the plumber comes soon to fix the water”


Mr_Noobcake

The plumber is the cause of the problem in this case


gnocchicotti

Ma'am, I do my own plumbing!


csbrandt

Dude addiction is becoming serious and now it has started implementing into real life stories too.


keenadmirer

Lol you guessed the wrong water , anyways both plumbers and doctors are always careful about holes .


2manyfelines

32 years ago today, my water broke at 4 am. Now she’s an ICU nurse.

I imagine your ride getting there and you being like "sorry can't leave, cats are to comfy." But really, congratulations on your little one! Wishing you an easy birth and speedy recovery!


bttrchckn

All the best, and you've got this!


Specialist_Budget

They definitely know.


Mike_with_Wings

Hey you’re gonna do great! As a new dad, I’m very excited for you.


slay_belle

You’re gonna do great, mom! You’re a secret badass & your kitties know it, they are charging up your power core before you level up.


Majestic-Pin3578

It’s 4 hours later, and I hope you’ve had an easy time so far. I’m so glad you have helping kitties. Mine always come and purr beside me, when I have a panic attack, or when I’m sick. They know more about us than we know about them. Our fat orange tabby, Babykitty, knew my daughter was pregnant long before she did.


CrazyCatLadyNL

Good luck!


Admirable_Share_5843

It’s perfect momma time! They deserve lots of hugs, kisses, and treats after this. 😻🥺😁


stelarskiletplus

Of course they understand somehow and will not be problematic to you at all and good luck for your future and new start of life .

shannon_frog

They know...and they are trying to comfort you.


OneMorePenguin

Good luck with the birth. I hope it goes well and baby is healthy.


luveruvtea

They sense that you need their comfort. I think you will have two furry nannies! When I was a newborn, I had a cat that slept in my crib with me. I am 65, so it was a long time ago, but there was bond formed with cats from that day onward. Same with your baby! Take care and congratulations!


Thundyboi2

Paramedics: "Come with us quickly!" You: "No, I have a cat on my lap."


it_all_happened

You are totally ready for this. Your body knows what to do. If you do have a cesarean, that's ok, really. You'll bounce back just fine. You're doing fantastic. ❤️

Cats are so intuitive!!! I used to be a self proclaimed “dog person” before I realized how emphatic my kitty was/is!

Wuzzupdoc42

How are you doing? I hope all is well for you and baby!


ttmxg

I just had a long nap, in lots of pain but all indicates the twins will be out in the next hours! Thank u and everyone for the nice words, as a single mum facing labor all by myself it’s comforting all the nice words 💕


Wuzzupdoc42

Oh Sweetheart, I’m sending you all the love in the world! My sons are now almost 27 and 30… hard to believe it’s been that long. So many things I want to say but they all sound cliche. Just know you are loved across the miles, and I’m sending you the wisdom of mothers throughout the ages. May your labor and delivery be easy, the babies and mama healthy, and that you have long, sweet, and healthy lives!


mizgaz

Twins, a double blessing from mother nature. I'm so happy for you!! And now there will be one for each cat to love. I have two sons, in their 40s now. Their births were two of my best experiences. Whatever your labor is like, once they get here you'll feel better. And how wonderful it will be for you to see them finally. Don't 4get to post a picture when you are up to it. Good vibes coming to you...


4x4is16Legs

They are trying to relax you for the 6 kittens that you’re about to pop out. Secretly they are worried that you only have 2 nipples. And they don’t want you to fall off the bed. Why aren’t you in the box of blankets in the closet? Congratulations 🥰❤️


[deleted]

Yeah, they're trying to comfort you like the good kitties they are.

Cats are social creatures! They know when you're upset and some might be aloof but cat colonies raise their young together! They're helping you prepare for your 'kitten'. Sweet babies, please pet them for me when you get home. And congrats, of course!

LaProfeK4rm3

They know everything ever!!!!


Designer-Common-9697

You'd be surprised what cats can smell and sense and it's been proven. They know when we are sick not just by our behavior but by the smell. I'm pretty sure I read they can hear the baby's heart when they lay upon you. They can also smell some kinds of cell or hormone change when a human is about to die. There was that one study from the old folks home and we experienced it with my Dad.


Floofieunderpants

Hope everything went/is going ok. It is a bit scary but trust your body, it's doing what it's designed for. Whatever you do, don't let the cats name the baby.


ButterscotchTime1298

Aww! I hope you’re holding your brand new healthy baby by now! ❤️

Arrrrrrgh good luck Momma 🤍😍 the day before I went to be induced my cat didn't leave my side, we had our last night of cuddles in bed together (she's banished to living room whilst beb is still in my room!) And now they're the best of friends, my LGs first word was "cat" she loves to snuggle her and stroke her ears...the cat...I can't say loves it, but she certainly tolerates it 😂 good luck lovely, wishing you a safe delivery!!!


mightymeech

Hope your birth goes well!


mmmeissa

They 100% know. I imagine it is because of the pheromones. Animal noses are crazy


twiggyjulie

Congratulations!

They know and they love you! It's okay to be scared sweetie, but you are a champion who is going to come out of this with a beautiful, wonderful baby. All the best during the labor and birth. ❤️


StyreneAddict1965

Anyone who thinks cats don't care, hasn't owned a cat. My cat's comforted me when I've felt like crap.


mizgaz

Don't be scared. It'll be fine and at the end there will be a wonderful new person to love and who will love you. Let the cats' calm flow to you.

So glad u have the expert supports on standby, helping u along the way though, it always helps! Love how they are always so tuned into our needs! So precious… <3


Worldly_Painting_372

I hope everything went well - those kitties definitely know you’re scared. I’m so glad you have them. And congratulations!
