    Peanut is due today. No signs of effin' labor. *le sigh
  • I am so over the unsolicited "advice", at least half of which is complete crap. I know some people are just trying to be helpful, or they're just excited for me - and I appreciate that - but please don't give "advice" if you have no clue what you're talking about. What may have worked for you, may not work for me and vice versa. Same goes for my MIL, no I am not going to "toughen up my nipples with a washcloth" to get them ready. I will let DD toughen them up for me while we are learning to BF. Yikes.

    Final is tonight. So not ready but ready to be done with school.

    It's my last week of work and I have a few things outstanding but I can't finish them because the people who assigned them won't do what they need to do.

  • I am due in 11 days and am grumpy, uncomfortable and pretty much hate all people. I am now working from home until I have the baby--so fortunately I am mostly away from society.
  • My other bitch is also about my due date. I found out my provider is going on vacation the day after my due date. I am a vbac patient so this is a big deal because not all providers are vbac friendly. So, pretty much, if I don't go into labor by my due date, my choices are induction (which increases rcs rate and is more dangerous with a vbac...A lot of providers won't even induce a vbac) with my provider or taking my chances with the on call doctor. Honestly, despite this news (which could likely prevent me from getting a vbac) being pretty devastating, I was not too stressed because I honestly believed I would go into labor before my edd. My dh thought this, my nurse practitioner thinks I will go early, I think I will go early and statistically I am more likely to go early...then my doula ruins the positive vibes by saying she thinks I will go late. I don't even know what she is basing this on.

  • "How are you feeling?" is usually a well received question when you haven't been feeling well or such but when it gets texted, emailed or phoned to you multiple times a day by multiple people every single day, it gets really, really old and annoying. My responses have now become one or two words: sleepy, tired, huge, still pregnant. Please cut it out because it's making me nervous!

    DH is on my last nerve lately. The more uncomfortable and exhausted I get, the later he sleeps and the more naps he takes, and the more he bitches when I ask to sleep in or take a nap. And forget asking him for help with DS or anything around the house. I told him we still have a ceiling fan to assemble and hang in the baby's room, and he threw the biggest PMS bitch fit I've seen since junior high. I'm seriously considering buying him some tampons and Midol.

    And I've hit the point at which caffeine no longer has any effect. I'm so exhausted I can fall asleep even right after a cup of coffee. It's great at night because I'm getting some insanely deep sleep and not even waking up every half hour to pee, but it super sucks during the day when I need to be caring for and spending quality time with DS and all I want to do is lie down and sleep for a week straight. Zzzzzzzzzzzz.

    wtf body? Like honestly I've had a week of cramping, lower back pain and some blood tinged mucous multiple times but no baby. I'm due Wednesday and id love for my body and my baby to get together and do this!! I'm so frustrated right now and I've been walking, using my yoga ball, taking easy birth, eating pineapple, eating spicy ugh. Midwife has told me it's good body is preparing...that's lovely please be done preparing and just go into labour. Good news she's offering a stretch and sweep tomorrow and we are going for it....

    Side note my dads an ass and I do not want this child born on his bday which is the 10th ugh

    I'm overly upset with the disagreeing opinions of the 4 doctors in my OB practice. The oldest doctor told me last week that I was progressing nicely making me a great candidate for induction this week if I hadn't gone naturally. (She wasn't sure I'd make it through the weekend) The doctor the week before had said something similar. This morning another doctor examined me and said I had made no progress since last week and that she wouldn't induce until next week. She said I wasn't having this baby anytime soon. I know that no one knows but how can she differ so much from the other two ladies. How can the one lady get my hopes up? How can that lady crush them so easily? Needless to say I cried my eyes out. I was totally prepared to have this baby on Wednesday and now nothing!
  • My other thing is that I really was looking forward to eating Mexican food at my fav place yesterday.  We went and it was so disappointing!  They make their own chips and tortillas there, but their machine was broken so they had some gross ones that tasted store bought :-(  

    Also, I will be 39 weeks on Wed and this is the week all my clients decide they want to meet with me before I have the baby?!

    I'm not due until the 25th and I've had severely swollen kidneys since 28 weeks. We decided to let it go and watch blood work instead of getting stents. My pain has increased and I've made 0 progress. My MW has no doubt I will go past my due date and the thought of another 4 weeks (they induce at 41w) is troubling. I'm an RN and work on my feet for 12 hour shifts and have to work up until my due date. I wish they would induce me at 40 but I know it's best to let him cook until he is ready. I don't know if I should ask about being induced earlier than normal or wait it out. No one seems to know the extent of kidney damage that will occur with each week since baby only gets bigger and bigger
  • My chips got stuck in the vending machine at the hospital during the tour yesterday. I was starving! Dh did everything to get them out. No luck!

    Had the male doctor today do my cervical check which generally means bigger hands. Had horrible period like cramps after I got home.

    It's a BOY










  • One week PP and I've lost 8 lbs. the baby alone was almost 7. Wtf, body?

    I am so over dealing with one of my friends. She is smothering me with constant texts about how I'm feeling and FB posts where she has tagged me in some stupid baby or pregnancy related post.

    She also doesn't get that my LO being big =/= him being ready to come out. Since around 32 weeks she has been bugging that he needs to get here because he was over 6 lbs then. Now I'm 36 weeks and she keeps sending texts that say "He needs to get here!!!!!!!" First off, 37 weeks is the earliest I would want him to get here and second, my mom isn't in town until 38 weeks so I would like to have her present as well.

    She has also tried to schedule my newborn pics with our mutual photog friend and keeps talking about how there's no way I am going to deliver a large baby pain free or without a CS because SHE would get an epidural as soon as labor started.

    Oh and she expects me to let her babysit LO right away. Yeah no. And it won't be any time in the future either since she talks about how she is afraid of babies and has never babysat and is grossed out by diapers and spit up. Sorry, but you're not using my kid as a Guinea pig.

    She also has asked to be in the delivery room, to be notified the minute I go into labor and to "help" with LO afterwards so that I can sleep. I already told DH that she will be the very last person we tell and that we warn the nurses to watch her because at this point I feel like she is one mental breakdown away from trying to steal my kid.

    ETA: oh I almost forgot that she was legitimately upset when she found out that my best friend and her husband asked to host my shower, and that DH and I asked them to be the godparents and not her. I still get texts saying how "she" would have done my shower differently accompanied by Pinterest links of ideas she would have used

     








  • I almost got hit by two trucks this morning on my way to work b/c they were going too fast.

    My doc appt today took longer than normal, so I was starving by the time I got out.

    My cervical check today hurt like the dickens. I started spotting immediately after. 

    Clients won't leave me alone, and after telling my boss that I wasn't going to take on any big projects after 4/30, I got a new client today. AND PS, it's not going to be a simple process.

    I just dropped lunch on me, and I still have 5 hours of work to go. I'm so done.

    Oh and another:

    Yesterday while grocery shopping we were walking towards the check out line when some asshat comes rushing past me with his cart and literally grazed my stomach with it without so much as an "i'm sorry" or an "excuse me". If I had taken one little step forward, he would have ran right into me and hurt both me and LO. DH was with me and I had to calm him down because he wanted to rip the guy a new one.  It's amazing just how rude some people are and how unaware they are of others outside of their own little universe.

    @amberlowe08‌ I'd be calling and making a customer service complaint. Who says that?!

    My bitch: My body needs to either get a move on or quit teasing me. Granted, I'm 37 weeks on Wednesday, so baby brother can stick around for a little longer, but after two days of contractions off and on last week, I'm ready to quit playing games.
  • One week PP and I've lost 8 lbs. the baby alone was almost 7. Wtf, body?

    Two weeks PP here I lost 20, but now I am stuck, swore I would eat only healthy foods while breastfeeding instead had ice cream for lunch today....

    Totally agree! It's not the amount of time I've been pregnant that is getting to me, it's the fact that I've been dealing with "early labour" symptoms for over a week that is getting to me. I know labour takes a long time, but I was expecting like a day or two, not a week or two of dealing with this shit.

    I am just ready for this baby to be out!  He is making me so uncomfortable.  And I am so jealous of everyone on this board who has already had their babies!

    This.

    ETA: oh, and it's Cinco de Mayo and I can't have a mojito to celebrate. :-(

  • Baby still hasn't dropped. RCS scheduled for 10 days from now. Dr doesn't think I'll get my VBAC at this point. I'm angry. I feel like my body has failed me again. I feel robbed that I will never get to know what labor feels like.

    Another one about my SIL -  She's being so courteous  by driving my MIL down for Mother's Day so I don't have to worry about driving up there. (sarcasm) No idea what time, they mentioned everything from brunch to dinner.  I really don't want them there.  Even though Jane isn't an outside baby yet I still feel like I want to celebrate my first mother's day alone with my husband.  Not entertaining his mom and sister because since no one on that side plans anything, we won't have any reservations anywhere and other restaurants will be extremely crowded and they won't want to wait.  Also, what about my mom?

    My first MD was ruined by having dinner with my MIL where she informed me that my new hair cut/color looked hideous. Thanks bitch.

  • My bitch is about government paperwork.

    I went to file for maternity leave and had all my paperwork in order. Or so I thought. Turns out my paperwork from my first employer (I changed jobs in-between the required 12 months) wasn't valid so my claim will still be on hold. And if they don't file the paperwork I can complain so the government will go after them. I really hope it doesn't come to that, as I still am on good terms with them and talk to them here and there. I would feel awful if I had to go that route to get my claim processed.

    Sigh.

    Just because I have a big belly does NOT mean I will have this baby asap. I'm 36 weeks people! I would like to ensure this baby's vital organs are all functioning up to par before he gets here please. And you're just calling me fat by telling me he is going to come sooner. Knock it off people.

    And DH...after months of trying to convince you DD needs her first haircut now and not when she turns 3 and then you finally agreeing to a trim...STOP putting it off now because 1. It should be done on a weekend. 2. We don't want to go there right at closing (because 5:30 is 8:00) 3. Her hair has been in pigtails all day.

  • Yesterday, I slipped on DS's table place mat and seriously looked like I was trying out some new figure skating move. And now, my already sore groin is now so sore, it hurt to roll over in bed this morning, couldn't get out of bed without wanting to cry, and I'm dreading getting off the toilet.

    I just remembered another...

    We haven't settled on a name for this baby yet, and people are really starting to act offended over it, as if we're intentionally being coy or withholding important information. My mom is the worst. She's convinced we're pulling some kind of control-freak power play by trying to keep everyone out of the loop. Why would we do that? What does someone gain by holding out on revealing a baby name?

    We honestly just haven't found anything we absolutely love or can imagine for our baby. When we do know, we'll share. Before then, butt out.
