I was just going to comment on all the outside babies, but I see everyone else is in awe of it as well! 

Instead, I will say, so much acid in my esophagus! I am not loving this.  Also, I need a milkshake.

@BiggerinRealLife‌ I hope things get better soon!

I get that c/s is a big deal but I'm not going to be super upset if I have one. I trust my dr. If that's the route I have to go to get the baby out safely.

In other news I had my first sneeze-pee today. Luckily it was when i was on my way home so i could change. Is there a name for that like a snee or a peeze?

So, just found out that the Semisonic song "Closing Time" is about bandmate Dan Wilson's impending fatherhood.  Reading some of the lyrics, it totally makes sense.

Yeah, my mind is blown!

@Twirple Did you see that pin too?

Took 2 Benadryl 2 hrs ago and I am still wide awake. WHY?!?!

Twirple

@BiggerinRealLife I found out from my DH, not sure where he got it, but apparently it's true!

Twirple

@aviola329 that stinks!  I hope you get it figured out tomorrow so you can stop stressing.

Pregosomnia is the worst!!! I'm so tired but yet here I am, wide awake.

Regarding the whole c section thing, I'm a FTM and have never had any type of surgery so the thought of having a c section does scare me. However, it does make me feel a bit better to hear from people that have been through it that it isn't that big of a deal .

What pisses me off is when stupid men make comments like " oh you should just have a c-section. " DH has a friend that says that to me all of the time and I just want to hit him.

Decided to go ahead and purchase some storage solutions for the new apartment. Feeling better already about getting things all put away!! Wishing I had a slower week so I could full on nest, but alas, I'm working quite a bit this week.

@aviola329 ugh, I hate when you find something out that you have to wait to take care of, because then you just stress the whole time. I hope it's a simple fix with a phone call and it gets straightened out asap.

@ImnAtari hope everything's ok with you!

It sucks being a night owl on the West Coast because the boards are dead whenever I'm bored.

well I just had a bit of a fright! I tried installing my new car radio myself - have done it before is easy enough. But it wasn't working properly. So a very good friend who is a mechanic had a look for me today.

turns out our car wiring is has been completely fucked at some point in its life, and was actually on the verge of catching fire! He has taken out the relevant fuses and I now have to go get it seen to properly. 

The car is second hand, we had to buy it in a hurry after I totaled our nice car when I hit a cow back in June last year - right before getting preg thank god!

Now I have a job to do when I start maternity leave - the nearest auto electrician is 40 minutes away!!!

Now I'm curious.  It's 11:20 here, 1 hour and 40 minutes and it will be Thursday in all of "Merica".  Not that you have to wait for us.  It has been Thursday there for a long time now.

hahaha I think starting two threads early in on week may be a bit much for people!

Is it weird that part of me doesn't want to post cause I really don't want to offend people, but its defninitly an UO!

ETA but then I think I may be over reacting and people will probably just ignore it!

avidkeo

OMG I just corrected my spelling, but it didn't save it! what gives!

Twirple

I can certainly understand not wanting to offend people.  I worry about offending people too, so I constantly sensor myself.  It is ironic, because I am not easily offended at all.

it will come down to how I word it.... I'm going to do it cause I've been thinking it for a couple of weeks. though I expect when you read it you'll go, meh is that it! haha

It would be interesting if it really were an unpopular opinion.  In my experience, most of them aren't.  Are you planning on starting the thread, or waiting for someone else to start it?

If I pass the pregsomnia test and actually get some sleep, I wake up feeling like someone has beat my back and ribs in to submission. Its totally a lose lose situation.

Rant & morning question!

Apparently the drs think I'm crazy for refusing cervix checks and I think they are crazy for offering them. Come the fuck on you are causing me pain & contractions and when I don't have the checks the contractions go away. This is "the best hospital" in the area yet no one wants to let me go home. Heard from NICU specialist & fetal sonogram doc that this little man is healthy, no cord around his neck, had another anatomy scan to be doubly sure he just might want to meet us early. Oh yeah and the contractions? I DONT FEEL THEM. Some women contract often and some are dilated sooner every pregnancy is different and it's been explained to me a million times by a million different docs. But why can't I go home? How bad is it to sign myself out of the hospital against medical wishes? I feel like that's an F on my report card in case I ever have to come back here... [-(

So funny you bring this up. DH was just talking about this tonight...I Had no idea!

Tferr02

Ugh woke up to my DH sick in the bathroom, he then told me that he's been sick all night and is going to sick call. He called me a little later saying he wants me to come pick him up when he's done with sick call, that he should have gone to the ER last night. Now I'm wide awake and worried about him!! He's never sick besides a man cold and he said he's in extreme chest, stomach and back pain.

snmetz7

@aronie82‌ fx everything goes smoothly.

chichi589

@aronie82 good luck!!

JessieAlbin

Thinking of you @aronie82‌ !!

@Tferr02‌ I hope your poor DH feels better. When my DH had me take him to urgent care for the norovirus he got a few weeks back I felt so bad, I hate when they feel like death and we can't fix it!

danamarie421

Good luck @aronie82‌!!

So I finally fell asleep last night after 1:30 AM, only to wake up to acid reflux vomit and terrible charlie horses at 2:30AM.... It is going to be a very long day..

Good Luck @aronie82‌ !

So, after I put on my big girl panties and set a major boundary with my mom that, no, I don't want her to come down to visit from out of state and camp out waiting for the baby to come, and we would like it if she came when we were out of the hospital and gave us a few days etc... Yesterday she informs me that while she knows "we had a controversy" over the issue, she WILL be coming down because she wants to "have summertime" and we will have to just put up with her. Oh, and that she fully expects kiddo to come early (my doc says we have zero indication that he will come before 37w and as of right now she thinks I will likely still be pregnant on my EDD), so that she can take him for walks in the stroller by the river while I sleep.

Um. No. You may not take my days old baby out of my house while I am sleeping, much less in the stroller by the river walk for your imaginary "summer/baby vacation." Stop it.
