  2. LB says:

    >I would like to vote for #30. It was a very stressful time. I wish I could have been there for the actual birth. I was only a few hours late. I guess I can always shave your legs to relive the moment. Love you d.

  3. Kathy says:

    >I vote for #26 and #30. I have always said “things can always be worse”. These ladies Make pushing out twins look easy.

  4. Sarah says:

    >19 for sad and 15 for funny

  5. MeesheMama says:

  6. Phoenix says:

    >I really wanted to enter… is it too late? I lost all my hearing for the last six weeks of my preganacy. guess what? after giving birth? it didn’t come back!!!

  7. Laynie says:

    >#12 for funniest#13 for worstAnd whatever award possible should go to the dear women whose comment is directly above mine. That totally sucks!

  8. Debbie says:

    >#14. Terrorism and pregnancy don’t mix.

  9. Anonymous says:

    >#12 is the funniest.And a lot of them are horrifying. Sandy

  10. Ruby says:

    >Funniest is #16, Most Horrifying is #18

  11. Jennifer says:

    >I vote #8 for horrifying. All the stories were awful, but #8 is definitely the one that will most haunt me should I decide to subject myself to any future pregnancies.

  12. lili says:

    >All of them are better than mine, but, 13 horrifically funny.

  13. Laura K. says:

    >Most Funny #12Most Scary and horrible #13

  14. Jen says:

    >I vote for 14!I pregnant and due in 6 days ~ I can only say how much more thankful I am now that I’ve read all of this. My pregnancy has been a relative breeze.

  15. Jill says:

    >Wow! I can’t believe I made the list. I will not vote for myself. I vote for #26 for scariest story and #19 for funniest (but only because her boyfriend left to go to his Boy Scout meeting).

  16. Jeana says:

    >Funniest–12 Horrifying–8

  17. >#30 should win, if only for the fact that her doctor would have given me a heart attack. way to pull through with your wits about you!

  18. purposedtrek says:

    >#14 – nothing like an overseas birth.

  19. Jana Goodwin says:

    >Lucky #13!The perfect blend of terror and humiliation!

  20. >I vote for all of them, we all have our stories of horror during pregnancy and delivery, many of them carrying the same note of medical personnel not giving us any credit, or treated less than we would allow our animals. Love to all these moms and their babies. #30 gets the vote, laying in bed that long, a dr. telling you the minister should be called. Frightening times with a good outcome.

  21. MommasWorld says:

    >HORROR # 8. never heard of such a thing and that would really scare the begebbies out of me so this one gets my vote!! I wouldn’t care what the Doctors said or anything. I would freak.FUNNIEST #16 That one really made me laugh.Out of all the responses to your question of ‘What can go wrong during pregnancy’ the majority responded with what can go wrong during delivery. Keep in mind that there have been some horrifying situations but the majority of the responses resulted in healthy, wonderful children.

  22. DraMa says:

    >#16 is the funniest. But it’s hard to choose honestly!!As for the most horrifying! Gosh, this is VERY VERY hard to choose just one.But I’ll say #26. Twins, high risk, cerclage, 8 tries at a spinal, death of a loved one, preemies, GD AND gall bladder loss? Yeah… she has it all. That must have been hell! She deserves something for that horror.

  23. Barbara says:

    >After reading the other votes, I guess I just have a weird sense of humor.I thought funniest was 8 and 5 (in retrospect, of course, because neither was funny at the time).I had a hard time with horrifying, because, they all were at the time. The ones I thought were the worst were #18, forcing someone to leave the hospital with an ill baby is terrifying beyond words to me. #9, the horror of a misdiagnosis, but, then the relief. #13 as an overall winner, because I thought it combined the best of both, yuk with yucks!

  24. Auntie says:

    >I vote #30 Good Luck MN. Mom

  25. amb says:

    >i vote for 30! that would be horrible to think that your baby wouldn’t even make it through.

  26. >I vote for #4, simply hilarious. The power of the mind is amazing. I remember how smells made me miserable during my pregnancy and still feel queasy when I remember one THE WORST in particular: automobile exhaust fumes.

  27. Andrea says:

    >I vote #13 (Nancy) for most horrific because the word episiotomy makes my skin crawl. Couple that with the words “self-inflicted” and I get a little queasy and feel like laying down. Of course after I buy Nancy a drink.I vote for #16 for funniest. An ice cream truck blaring down the street with a police battalion in pursuit just makes me giggle. And I hope no first time moms were hurt in the process of running this contest. Good luck everyone. This was a hard decision.

  28. Anonymous says:

    >I vote for #30. It sounds too over-whelming.Second choice is #12, funny.

  29. Tammy says:

    >I vot for # 13 for both. Totally funny and scary! 😉

  30. mck says:

    >I vote for 13 for Most Horrifying – just sounded painful- and 12 for funniest.

  31. >I’m voting for lucky number 13! Ummm, mainly because I giggle uncontrollably everytime I read the word, diarrhea. The only thing that would have made it funnier would have been the phrase, “explosive diarrhea.”

  32. caroline says:

    >OMG! I think all of these women deserve recognition for what they went through to bring their beautiful children into the world!! I have never NOT appreciated the complete normalcy of my pregnancy and l&D, but it’s to a whole new level now! Sweet Jesus! It’s a tie for most horrifying: #9 and #30 hands down!!! It’s so infuriating the mistakes that can be made in the medical world w/ pregnant women! Eee gads. Good luck everyone! email: caroline_willard@yahoo.com

  33. jag says:

    >Nancy (#13) gets my vote for both categories…her delivery (of the story) is hilarious, and everything she went through (esp. the pooping on the table – I’ve got a phobia about that) sounds terrible!

  34. Mama Me says:

    >funniest – #12 – push button donkey! Awful, so awful … but thank you for the perfectly funny image …most horrific – #13 – that series of events is just too, too much!

  35. Anonymous says:

    >#13 that was too funny!

  36. Lahdeedah says:

    >I vote for #30. That has to be scary and terrifying. One, for thinking everything is fine and realizing it’s not, then for the being tilted in hopes the baby would go back in, loved that one, but scary.

  37. Andrea says:

  42. >#29 because my epidural failed too and it was horrendous;#19 for extraordinary;(ah, hell, this is so hard, they’re all extraordinary!!!)

  43. mamatulip says:

    >Wow. This is a HARD decision.Funny: #17 made me laugh out loud, because the SAME THING happened to me with my first pregnancy. Thank god there is someone else out there who thinks her water broke but nope, she just peed.And horror: #20 was pretty horrifying, but #14 is TERRIFYING. Can I vote for two? Please?

  44. Amy W says:

    >I am voting for #29 for the horror and #16 for funny…

  45. chirky says:

    >#13 – Most Humorous (I’m sorry, it was horrifying, but also funny.)#29 – Most Horrifying

  46. >#16 is funny. And I honestly can’t single out the most horrifying one, because I was appalled by so many. And I’m reminding myself how damn lucky I was, both times.Cheers to all of these moms.

    >I would vote for my friend #29 but I am not sure I can forgive her for sending a first time pregnant girl to read these stories. I did think that 17 was the funniest, I could totally see that happening to me.

  65. ~Nancy~ says:

    >To jfp (@) earthlink.netIt has been the family joke since it happened. Anyone who knows me showed no surprise.I have always been an accident waiting to happen.I didn’t even go into detail about the hospital room with no heat in 18 degree weather, the TV that refused to die, being left on the sitz chair until my lower body went to sleep, going home to frozen water pipes, and freaking out when my episiotomy stitches came out and they were bright lime green……oh, and I only had one child. It’s all totally true but please – think whatever you choose.Sincerely,#13
