Re: Monday Randoms
Mine was near the butt, not actually in it. A crucial difference!

Big difference! Hope he stays away from there as much as possible.
Ever watch Tosh.0? Reminds me of a song called "What what, (in the butt)".

Good luck @bkmama! I had pitocin and an epidural and didn't need a c-section! You'll do great! Happy baby day!
So after my above mentioned appt DH and I are taking DD bowling! It will be her first time and she is so excited!
I am doing no work today, and there is really no reason for me to be here, other than I am one of the highest ranking people here at the moment. But, at work I will stay until I leave for my doctor's appointment this afternoon.
@bkmama - Good luck! I hope your baby is here already, or will be soon!
@CrazyMonkeyBear - SO close to your last day! Very excited for you
@MusicFanatic - I love Zoe pictures. All of her expressions are beyond adorable.
@saiven - The next "Contratulations!" post you put up should be done in pig latin.
I'm sure I've missed plenty of people through this, I was going through skimming trying to get in as much as possible in as short of time as possible.
AFM, other than almost punching MIL in the face last night (she decided she needed to lecture me about how much easier a C-section is than vaginal birth, and how some women just aren't built to give birth vaginally, and all sorts of other nonsense bullshit)...I'm just ready to have this baby. DH will actually be home for 5 days this weekend so I'm hoping by some miracle he decides to come while he's home...
Oh, and my 3 year old son is trying to parent his 1 year old sister...oh boy it's going to be a long day.
Big difference! Hope he stays away from there as much as possible.

I remember that video! I also remember the guy! I worked at an airport for a little over 5 years and he was a flight attendant for a charter so almost any weekend I worked international arrivals I got to see the "What what in the butt" guy :-D
@britb618 Your post brought me to tears. Enjoy your mom pampering you. You are very lucky to have that.
@littlefoote and anyone nervous about their H, communicate your concerns with your nurse. They will be able to keep an eye on him and help facilitate him stepping out or just taking a breather if necessary.
You are so strong.
I was 26 when I got divorced from my first husband and thank god we didn't have any children. I usually did our taxes every year and after our divorce he asked me if I could do his. I sd um maybe you should go to h&r block.
I hope he realizes what a mistake he is making.
But I know you realize you will be better off and deserve so so much more.
And... I am stuck here at work. Yay.
@VioletGjoni I'm sorry about your DS
I have a few calls to make today and I need to kick my butt to get it done. I need to call a pediatrician and a daycare provider. I've been so focused at work I've put off these things.
DH and I are looking at canceling our cable and doing Amazon Prime or Netflix. We just don't need the extra expense of cable. I'll have to wait a day to buy my Walking Dead episodes on Vudu but it's cheaper than paying for cable. This also means looking into a digital antenna for network channels. We've been down this road before and ended up keeping cable but with a baby on the way cable is going bye bye.
The husbands being in the room during delivery reminded me of this. With DS, I was kind of nervous about DH watching because I didn't want him to get grossed out or think of my vagina as just practical thing for having babies vs. in a sexy way. He was in the room and watched, and he said it was amazing, and it didn't hurt our sex life at all.
This time I think my hemorrhoids are a bit worse, so I warned him about that. He hasn't seen them because we don't have sex that often, and when we do, he avoids that area per my request. Anyway...I just don't want to be or feel gross during labor. I certainly don't want to see what's happening with a mirror. I am looking forward to the sweet/amazing/beautiful parts of it but not so much the other parts.
My property manager's assistant is kind of a huge bitch.
That's all I got.
@VioletGjoni Sorry your little guy is having a hard time. Hope something gives soon for you all.

DD born 1/3/15
I am not sure your entire story with your baby's jaundice, but my son went through a terrible bought when he was born too.
My son had terrible issues with jaundice when he was born too. He was actually released from the hospital 2 days after he was born, but they had been watching his numbers closely. He was something like a 12, and they would only treat it if he was a 13, or something like that. Anyway, that was on a Sunday afternoon. We had our first check-up at 8AM the very next day. When we got to the office the doctor could tell he did not look good right away. He was so jaundice that the light meter they check with in the office would not even work on him. We were sent straight to the hospital to have his numbers checked. It had spiked to something like 24. He was immediately admitted to the NICU, started on formula and given an IV. It took over 7 days to get his numbers back to a normal range. Some days it would come down, and other days it would go back up. It was absolutely awful! I feel your pain!
I hope his numbers improve soon. Also, not sure if they will do this for you, but they did send us to a hematologist to get extra blood work done after he was recovered from it all. They also did one extra blood test when he turned 12 months. This was because his doctor definitely said the way his number spiked, and the fact that the NICU struggled so long to get it back down was not normal. All of his extra blood work turned out fine, which is great. It is just so hard to go through at the time.
@VioletGjoni, I'm so sorry your little guy is still going through this jaundice. I hope his levels drop off really soon.
@nah82, I think those commercials would want to make me toss my tv out of the window! I'd ask for a lifetime supply of Starbucks and never to have to deal with his bullshit ever again. (Ok not really, I tend to talk a big game.) But you deserve some good coffee (or something like that) at least.
@saiven, you should start wishing everyone good sexy times in 6 weeks.
But seriously (and unrelated), what they don't tell you is that it can hurt the first couple of times... Boo.
AFM, I had my first outside baby dream last night. It was a boy and looked just like the boy in the pictures I'd been editing from my last photo session. I took him home from the hospital and still didn't have a name for him for over a week. He was a big boy and I kept asking him, who do you look like? Maybe you look like a Beau? (Weird because Beau is totally NOT on our list) Then I had a dream (separate) that I was searching for some weed! Like seriously... Now I'm having pregnancy cravings for weed? So weird. I do like it, but I'm way too chicken in my old age to get caught. Maybe a vacation with dh to Colorado will be in order in a year our so. Hehehe
Speaking of hydration, being sick while pregnant is the worst thing ever. I spent a lovely evening contracting on L&D due to dehydration, fever and vomiting. They finally let me go sleep in my own bed around 3am after the contractions spaced out with fluids...not dilated yet thankfully because only 35 weeks, just 50% effaced. Today I'm in achey/febrile misery, I miss Motrin! This Tylenol/zofran isn't cutting it. I'm guessing one of my pediatric patients shared some lovely virus with me but part of my irrational self is worried about something more serious like Listeria. Which I'm sure is just me being paranoid, but the worry remains.
