    @rainafire77 there is a part time option built into FMLA. You can look into that to see if it would work for you. Then they can't say no.

    @meatballs37 so many prayers for you and baby!

    @mamaof5already & @the_other_mother I talked to HR last night. My boss is female which makes this more annoying. There's already precedent with people returning from maternity leave part time and working from home for several weeks so my boss can't say I'm not eligible to do that. HR said I will have coverage and there will be coverage for my co-worker and I will not be expected to cover her job as well. She said that's not fair and it's not right and she will make sure that I have all the legal time I'm eligible to take. California has an additional 12 weeks (6 weeks of which are paid for baby bonding) so I'm protected there. She said that she will deal with my boss of necessary but is hopeful that in having a "friendly" chat with my boss she will remind her that I have rights.

    Yesterday my coworker says to me "Just think, next Halloween you'll have a child to dress up!" I said "As opposed to my two current children, who I do, in fact, put in costumes?" Meaning, my dogs. My dogs are still my furry children, show some respect! :)
    Exactly. My boys ( dogs) were here first.

    I was wondering last night where you have been @TattoosandLace!!

    @chucksmom15 at first they said 95hours to help recover my Apple ID. Then at 94.5 hours I got an email that said NOVEMBER 22! WTAF! 
    I've been missing you guys. I got put on bedrest Friday and the weekend without anything bump related especially blew. Monday was reevaluated to "modified bedrest"

    I kept DS home today because he had a fever last night. We’ve been cuddled in bed all day watching Netflix and eating his Halloween candy. I started have some strong cramping at the top of my stomach and was in clear pain. DS kisses my belly and tells his little brother by name to go to bed. Lol I love my kid so much I don’t know how I can love both these boys. My heart is going to explode when LO gets here. Btw we send the dog to bed when she is bad so this has become DS’s response for when people are misbehaving. Also selfishly I love keeping DS Home from school.

     Also holy hell should I be concerned about cramping at the top of my bump? I’m thinking maybe gas pain? Too much candy?

    Also @TattoosandLace I wondered where you went! Welcome back!

    Welcome back, @tattoosandlace ! I hope everything is ok with you and your LO.

    Why the bedrest @TattoosandLace?  Is everything ok??

    Ive been dealing with that ridiculous Apple ID issue for MONTHS. My advice is is just call them. I’ve been dealing with it since August and still don’t have mine recovered:/. Hopefully yours is easier to find. Lol.

    LO isn't staying put. <3 
    I've had pelvic pain/pressure for a few months, but chalked it up to third pregnancy. Last Friday at coop, I started spotting. That, coupled with the pelvic fun and backache had DH taking me in. On the way to the dr's, contractions started, but they weren't organized, so more BH than preterm labor. I might need to give up my teaching spot at the coop earlier than planned, which makes me really sad.

    Crying as I read this.
    Happy Birthday to Abraham, and his brother Shepherd who is watching over him.

    Praying for you @meatballs37 and your entire family. I know you might be entirely occupied over the coming days but let us know specific prayer requests when you can.

    I have thought about you, your husband, and meatballs from the beginning of your TTTS journey, and even more so now. So many thoughts and love your way, I feel words fail to convey my sincerity.

    ETA: because spelling :/

    @TattoosandLace I’d like to know that too.  I told them that resetting a password some of the oldest technology… But apparently they have it all set up so that nobody can reset it for safety reasons.  We have been calling them every few days about it… I’m super angry because DD’s  whole life in pictures and videos is basically in the cloud on that ID. 

    Some ID’s can be reset by calling  and answering some personal questions from your account. Apparently mine was not set up that way… But it’s worth trying. 

    Praying for Abraham and your entire family @meatballs37
