    Sorry @jennypm‌, hope things get better there.

    DST has messed me up too. But so has this cough/cold/whatever it is. Last night was my worst night yet, coughed all night and had chills/aches. Taking my cough med and Tylenol around the clock and temps luckily are only as high as 99.5, but that's staying on Tylenol. I called off work and called my OB office. I said they have got to see me. But of course they make you leave a msg with the nurse and she will call back. Last week one time it was 30 min, the other time it was 3 hours. So I guess I'm at their mercy. Thanks for all the well wishes yesterday-I hope this turns around fast.

    @jennypm unresolved arguments seriously suck. I had this issue last week where we didn't have a chance to talk post argument and things sort of built up further, especially because I knew I was being a bit irrational. Take the day today to think and such and then make time for a calm conversation tonight so you can both express your feelings and move past this. It feels really good to lay everything on the table, discuss and move on.

    @FrecklesInside‌ Good luck with the interview this week, and hope that E gets in a better mood!
    And yes, I filed a complaint on the doctor and switched to another one in the group, whom I don't get to meet until November 13th. Previous doctor just drilled into me all the risks of complications that come with age and weight. Luckily the NIPT came back clear but I can't help but worry. I'm hoping I get good news but the worst is having to wait until November 13 for the A/S results.
    Anyhow sorry for long post!

    @FrecklesInside‌ good luck with the interview! We'll try to keep you distracted until Thurs. :)

    As for me, our heat randomly stopped working last night. Woo! I woke up at two freezing cold and went to check the pilot light - dead as a doornail. Since I have never messed with this unit before, I decided fumbling around with it at 2am was dumb, and just put on some heavier PJs and snuggled my husband. After work I'll mess around with it, but I have a feeling it might be more than the light. Dangit.

    Ugh, fuck that!! I feel like that sort of thing always happens at the worst time. But, when is it ever a good time, really? Hope it is a simple fix.

    And thanks, distractions appreciated.

    @healthyfor2‌ I feel your pain! I have a horrible head cold that has now moved down into my chest, so I was up coughing all night. I also left a message for the nurses line, but I feel like it might be a while before they can get back with me because it's Monday morning and the probably have a lot of messages from the weekend. Ugh. Being sick sucks. Being sick while pregnant sucks even worse.

    Absolutely LOVE Gone With the Wind! I need to watch that again.

    I hope everyone has a great day!

    I've been having issues lately where if I stand for long periods of time I black out and then either pass out or catch myself before it gets to that point.. I've also been having BH contractions every day that are sometimes painful. I went to my dr and they're running tests on a vaginal exam, my urine, and blood. I should hear today if there are any alarming things. But I'm just requesting T&Ps please..

    It's looking like Amarillo for sure. I'm trying to find out as much as possible to make the transition easier. We should know something for sure by the end of this month.

    Any suggestions on a good place to live @rquinlin ?

    @FrecklesInside‌ Maybe skinny jeans and boots for you too with a blue-grey or a green sweater? I think those colors would work well together.

    I was thinking about a muted/pale gray-blue...but I have to find something. No fun!!! Well, for me...I only like shopping for E, not for myself.

    Oh my F I am tired. I slept like shit all weekend. Fuck Monday.

    I also got my first hurtful comment about the size of my belly. One of my friends mentioned I am bigger at this stage of pregnancy than other people she has known. Gee thanks.

    I really want to go back to bed. I need a nap.

    @FrecklesInside best of luck on your upcoming interview! 5 interviews for the same position is absolutely insane and you are pretty damn fabulous for sticking it out. Hope they see that!

    My random today is whiny so beware. We are cleaning out the office to move DS1 into a new big boy room. All of my teaching supplies took up most of that closet so I needed to organize it all into bins to move it to the attic. 

    The back story here is I am a 2nd career teacher, I was working corporate for 5 yrs then decided to spend a fortune going back to school (grad school) to get a teaching certificate. Went through all that then decided it was a fabulous time to start a family. I planned to be a working mom and when push came to shove, I decided I wanted to stay at home instead. So I piled all my depressing dreams and massive student loan debt supplies into bins where they shall stay for some untold length of time. I am just whiny that I have created a seemingly out of order life path and wonder when I will get to pursue the dream I had set for myself. 

    TL;DR I am very happy with my decision to stay at home and do the baby thing right now, but am also sad I pursued my dream to become a teacher then tossed it on the back burner.

    Just read through all the threads. I am so bad though, can't remember who to tag.

    Sorry @jennypm that you are fighting with husband. I hate when arguments get drawn out longer than necessary because one of us isn't ready to be the bigger person or get over something little. (not saying that is the case with your DH).

    @massiejs09 I get into those kind of moments like your husband and I feel like everything has to go. It is usually me that goes on these rampages of throwing stuff out but I kind of wish my husband would start one sometime. Maybe I should mention that men "nest" too.

    @frecklesinside good luck on your interview. I also think the grey-blue sound like it would be good for family photos.

    My random is that I have to figure out what I want to do for my birthday on the 14th. I can't decide if I want to actually have people over, go to dinner, or just go get a massage and have my husband make me dinner at home.

    IF I wasn't pregnant I would go for dinner and drinks and have my parents babysit but since I am pregnant I kind of want to do something relaxing. What do people do for their birthdays nowadays?? Most of our friends have a small get together or we go out to dinner so I know they will be expecting me to do something.

    @wendyld so much love and so many hugs for coming back to say hi today.

    @JennyP0222‌ I understand feeling like career and such lost direction and not being quite sure how to fit in family planning. I'm moving in the opposite direction, having started with a career in teaching and realizing it isn't right for me. Buuuuut right now raising my kids is my priority, which makes things a bit complicated. We can't afford for me to stay home and it is what I really want to do. It is why this ridiculous series of job interviews has me in knots. It would be a great job for me in five years, but right now I think they are looking for me to work hours that won't be conducive to parenting. I'm also, of course, nervous about negotiating what I believe is an acceptable maternity leave. Anyhow, I want the job because I need it and it IS a good job, but, part if me doesn't want it so I can push being a SAHM through my maternity leave and find a job afterwards. That is also problematic, leaving me little time to find something. So, who knows what will happen next!!

    TLDR I feel you on the career vs. Kids thing. I'm glad you are able to stay home though!

    Total drive by post because today is a busy day, but I need some etiquette advice.

    I'm co-hosting an engagement party November 22nd (less than two weeks from today). I sent out invitations two weeks ago, but of 37 invitations sent, I've received three RSVPs. I would normally just start calling/texting/emailing this weekend (so one week out from the party) to see who was coming, BUT I don't know most of the invited guests. I have emails for some of them, but not all. One of my co-hosts knows a few more, but the groom has a big contingent that neither of us knows well.

    So my question is whether it is appropriate to ask the bride and groom to remind the invited guests to RSVP. I'd rather not involve them at all, but they are the only link between many of the two hosts and the guests.

    I wouldn't ask the bride and groom to make the calls but you can ask them for any emails or phone numbers you are missing. Since you are co-hosting, you should make the calls/emails or split them with the other hostess.
    Grr... This is what I knew the answer was, but didn't want to hear. :) Thank you for confirming.

    Fuck today, man. My boss was just fired. I loved her and she initiated a lot of positive changes in our area. Office politics blew up an incident bigger than it should have been, and she got the chopping block. This is why no one tries anything positive in corporate America.

    @katydid2014 Glad to hear you're starting to feel better! 

    @peledreamsofrain Oh no! I'm so sorry about your boss. I vaguely remember you mentioning something previously about being worried she was going to take the fall for something. Not sure if I'm remembering that correctly, but I'm so sorry this happened to her. 
    Yeah. I owe her a lot, because she saved my career from an evil ex boss. I feel like a failure that I couldn't return the favor.
