T-W Tuesday eve

Like Christmas Eve... it affects my tomorrow so starting now.
Don't discuss how stress can lead to early labor with middle school students. Long story short, 2-3p.m. was Very stressful, so blood pressure was super high at my 3:30 appt. Led to blood work being done just in case, even though it's probably just from school. I also have to do a 24hr urine collection. And stay home tomorrow. Ugh.
TWT goes to the 1 kid who pushed me over the limit in class, then the computer that glitched, and mostly to our administration who will hopefully have my long term sub chosen... by the end of next week. My due date is next Weds. Ugh. Thank you for extra stress jerk wads.

My TW again this week is me. Headache on one side of my head/ face for 2 days, very annoying.
Oh heck DH is also on the list! He had the nerve last night to tell me to relaxe about when this baby is going to come, I need to not be so anxious. Seriously A-hole!! You have no clue what it's like to be 39+wks pregnant and know baby can come at any moment and everything your feeling you question... Could this be it?? He should know better, it's our 4th!!
Also I walked 2 miles yesterday and now all I feel is sore. So that was helpful. Actually I think LO is less in my pelvis than he has been the last few weeks. Stop, kid! You're going the wrong way!
And the bump. Whatever the maintenance issue is, it's really annoying.
And to my coworker that, no joke, says "You're still here?!" every morning. Thank you, Captain Obvious.
And to one of the radio stations that started playing Christmas music 24/7 yesterday. I love it, but it's too soon. And it's 70 degrees in Michigan today so the music is really out of place!
Second Twat goes to the teacher of my breastfeeding class last night. She spent the first hour rambling and prostelytizing about how wonderful breastfeeding is and its benefits and the history of BF and formula, and breastfeeding around the world, and the supposedly two hour class ended up running a half an hour over! I am pretty sure there was no point preaching about BF to a group of people who showed up to your class and who are all going through the trouble of trying to have an unmedicated birth at a birth center. I'm pretty sure we're all going to try to breastfeed whether you preach about it or not. We probably got 45 minutes worth of useful information the whole time. Ugh.
Went in to my appointment Thursday and ended up getting hooked on the NST monitor for a half hour in the office, LO'S heart rate kept dropping and it was picking up contractions I didn't know I was having so they sent me in to L&D. When I got there they had discussed that I was going to be an over night patient simply bc the added headache and neaseu with the contractions. I was there for about 2 hours when I really started feeling contractions every 3 min apart. Let me just say If i was at home and it would have started I wouldn't have known it was contractions. It felt like intense bladder cramps more than anything. Anyways, they then started talking about how they were going to get the surgery room ready (I'm scheduled for a repeat c-section) and to be prepared for the possibility of taking the baby out early. Well the dr showed up almost 8 later and did a sonogram. The sonogram showed old spots on the placenta which he said was concerning, and the umbilical cord is between her head and my cervix like a sandwich, because of that it was cutting off nutrients and blood flow (from what the dr said) to the baby. So he sends me home and sets up a NST basically for every 3 days until next tuesday. And I know a 99.7 temp isn't much to worry about, but it took 9 hours (the time I got to L&D to the time I got home) for that to go down 2 points.
Yesterday at my NST I found out I'm 13lbs over my weight limit, and all of a sudden my stomach measures 2 weeks behind.
I'm just so tired of feeling like crap, being told one thing after the other then it change multiple times, and all this stuff that "concerns" the dr but he continues to blow it off like it's nothing. And I also know I'm probably looking into it to much which only frustrates me more.. 1 week. I have 1 week left, I can do this!!
Had my 39 week appt today. After sitting in the waiting room for an hour and a half & in the room for thirty minutes dr finally came in. They scheduled to induce me tomorrow, then called 20 minutes after I left to tell me the spot was already filled and I will have to wait until next week to be induced! This is the third time this pregnancy that they have accidentally scheduled two people in one spot. I feel like they are so unorganized and it's so aggravating!! I just want my boy here already and to hopefully stop having to pee every five minutes! Maybe I'm just being a cry baby but oh well I'm over being pregnant!
1) The Bump website.
2) Drive by posters here on The Bump website who suddenly decide after 9 months to tell us the status of their uterus and/or crotch fruit on their own special threads. We have a sticky for that information and to be frank, if you've posted two or three times since March most of us are happy you had your child in the way we're happy for any human being that's had a healthy child but we just don't freaking care. Go take care of your L&D or post updates to Twitter and FB or whatever social media site you've been regaling with your every insight into pregnancy for the last few months. If you don't participate in the community, STFU.
3) My tailbone which is either fractured or bruised from a fall on Sunday. It is excruciating to sit or stand and I am now afraid of L&D because of the pressure I will have in that area. I had no worries about it before.
I've been having a good amount of contractions on and off the last few days, mostly Braxtons, but even with knowing things like being 1cm dilated means absolutely nothing in the short term, I'm getting excited/ really nervous and starting to wonder if this kid (who still doesn't have a name) is showing up soon.
Also, my mom. For bringing up, again, that I'm going to fail miserably at labor because I didn't take a Lamaze class. And for asking, AGAIN, when exactly are we going to call them after I'm in labor. I finally told her when we were going to the hospital, just to get her to leave me alone.
DS2: EDD- 09.08.17
Note: She is the person taking care of my dd while I'm in the hospital so she will obviously be one of the first calls I make.
I'm the twat for watching this apparently. Also, is it too early for Christmas decor to go up?
And eff that movie!
The chimney/Santa thing messed me up as a kid and I still can't watch it.
I just keep telling her to look at how huge my DH's head is. Of course LO is going to measure large when head circumference is part of the equation!

TW is myself. I'm paranoid I'm having contractions and just writing it off as something else, so then every movement kiddo makes or ache I feel I freak myself out and then start counting to see if there's a pattern. I did this for hours last night. I need to calm the fuck down.
Other than that, my client today who talked about her son who passed away for 2.5 hours. She really wore me out. I'm glad I can be a shoulder for people, but c'mon I'm 37 weeks preggers I really don't want to talk about such horrible things for that long.
TW goes to the nurse who called my name in the waiting room today. My name is not common at ALL but come on lady, at least use half the letters in there and don't add 6 more. She called me Shnoodle!!!! Hahaha. I didn't sleep last night at all so I was already tired and pissed so I ignored her, though I knew she was calling me. My name sounds nothing like that or is spelled nothing like that with the exception of it starting with an S. This WOMAN says it louder!!! So I said my name correctly and walked to the back. Lol. Then my friend tells me shnoodle is a dog. Oh geeze even better!! 39+4 and LO is still snug as a bug. No action!
He's had a lack of sleep and he's stressed, instead of fighting, I stayed silent, but that stung so bad. I haven't relished in being on bed rest at all. I'd give anything to still be working and helping with the burdens of housework and finances.
