Welcome to My iPhone World

It is quite amazing how quickly one can be sucked up into the iPhone and wonder how on Earth she ever survived without it. Honestly, I don’t know how I managed to wake up in the morning without my handy custom alarms. And I can’t tell you how much food has not been burned thanks to the timer. And now there are apps! Oh the joy of apps!

I wrote about how I decided to get the iPhone, and more ways I use it (so far!) on HubPages. (PS – HubPages has gotten a cute face lift, check it out!) I’ve also started using some of the apps and I put together a list of some good iPhone apps for parents here.

Finally, I found this little gem of iPhone tips on Twitter (follow me!). It’s got me thinking of more ways to use the iPhone.

Have fun, fellow (and future) Apple addicts!

If I Had Tweeted My Labor

OMG! Just started timing contractions. Totally on schedule. This is going to be soooo great. Can’t wait to start breathing exercises!

*

Contractions are starting to hurt. Husband wants to go to the hospital but I’m calling the doula. Need to labor at home a while.

*

Damn this hurts! Breathing not bringing the relief I thought it would. Cramps are WAY worse than in the pictures.

*

Couldn’t wait for doula to show. Threw up en route to the hospital. Husband is totally freaking out.

*

Trying to Tweet in the tub w/o *ing up my iPhone. Is it normal to sound like a hurt cow?

*

The comfort of water is over-rated. The tub is now freezing but it hurts too bad to move. WTF? Who thought of this?

*

Okay – way better now. Taking drugs. Something with ‘cain’ at the end took the edge off. Waiting for my epidural!!!!

*

ROTFLMAO – Dr. Feelgood just asked if I was in the middle of a contraction! Ha! I’ll show him a contraction!

*

Epidurals=NOT overrated!! Doula is helping me get into soothing positions, just tried to sneak me a granola bar.

*

9 1/2? 9 1/2? WTF is 9 1/2? When is this *ing monster going to get the hell out of there? Seriously, suck this thing out NOW!

*

Totally should have gotten that one final pedicure.

*

Okay, fine. I give up. They’re shaving me now. We’re going to get this kid out one way or another. Okay – the other way…

*

Does anyone speak anesthesiologist? What part of ‘Yes, I can feel that’ is so hard to understand?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

*

Something just popped. What was that? Gotta go, face mask is coming and they’re making me count. 10, 9, 8, 7, …..

Do You Follow?

I am feeling the need to get myself to Twitter-ing. So do you? Because if I’m going to do this thing, I need some Twitter friends! Or is this just one more thing to take up time? For those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about – yeah, me neither. It’s like real time instant messaging for grown-ups. I think. So if you know, feel free to clue me in. Because I’m clueless!
