Weekday Randoms pt.2 1/3-1/4

Re: Weekday Randoms pt.2 1/3-1/4

  • I got a message from the lab and got excited about results of the blood test they did after the NT. I go to the portal and there's no report. Just an obscure message saying the specimen was sent to a state lab for the California screening program. Yet it said report is final and "see report".

     I kinda freaked out but called my doctor and they said results are not in yet, it takes longer because it's state run and they didn't get anything. So probably just a notification. Ugh, it brought some anxiety back!

    @lavillard oh no! Wash wash wash! I'm sure everything is ok but I can understand the freaking out.

    @amylu914 my best friend just told me today "you don't plan your shower because I will". Ugh. I'm not a fan of showers. I grew up in Europe and we don't have them. I guess I'm ok with having one but it has to be joint with DH. She threw a fit for my wedding because I refused to have a bridal shower. I hope this time she listens a bit more!

    Ok, I’m joining the I may have possibly felt the baby extremely early club. I feel crazy! saying it but it felt soooo much like early baby kicks/movement. We will see if it continues over the next few days or if it was gas.  

    STM and I’m 12w1d. 
    djh513 I'm almost 13 weeks and I swear to God I am feeling movement! It feel like a rolling.
  • I feel a little left out of the "i can feel my ute/baby" club. :( This is my third pregnancy (12w) and I feel nothing down there...no grapefruit, no pressure, no early kicks or flutters, no RLP...I know it's coming and tomorrow's ultrasound will be assuring but I still feel weird for being "behind". 

    Also, wtf with the "pregnancy hacks" post??

    It's my third pregnancy, but second was a miscarriage. I felt my son move around 15 weeks - it felt like a little fish in my belly or something! I didn't feel the second one move because I had an anterior placenta. 

    What about you?
  • @catftm2018 love your pug! He’s so cute!

    On a completely different subject does anyone else watch Married at First Sight? It’s a guilty pleasure of mine and a new season just started. (Yes, I know it’s complete trash tv but I can’t help it!!  :#)
  • @catftm2018 Omg!!!! I want to kiss that pugalicious face of his!!!

    @ashbub714 YES!!! Obsessed!! Haven't watched the first episode of this season yet. I was actually rooting for everyonr last season!!! Yet, only 1 Ashley and Anthony are still together.

  • @zombiehoohaa Yesss! I’m so glad to have found another person obesessed with watching people potentially make a terrible decision for themselves!!  Lol I was rooting for everyone last season too! I was so pumped when they all decided to stay together although I was skeptical of the one couple who still hadn’t consummated since that’s all he could ever freakin talk about! But I was sure Nate and Sheila would make it and was really surprised they divorced. I’m currently watching the first episode of the new season right now :p

    My 2 year old DD is being insanely clingy with me and has been for over a month. I can’t figure out if this is just a phase or if it’s brought on by the pregnancy. She has been having trouble sleeping too and wanting me to go in there and hold her hand until she falls asleep. This never happens and I don’t want to start bad habits before the baby comes either but I also want to reassure her and comfort her if she is just going....


    STUCK IN TEXT BOX:   SP just did this before e transitioned her to HC's extra bed.  Wanting dada to rock her forever before bed.

    When/where can we start talking about baby showers? Now that we found out we are having a girl for #2, my SILs are insistent on throwing a shower. I have always been anti second showers but their argument is that this baby deserves to be celebrated just like DS was. I need July mama feedback!



    Oh no i got stuck in the box! What about just doing a sprinkle shower? Or a meet the baby type thing after baby is born? We arent asking for anything even if this baby is a girl (we have 2 boys now) because of the reaction from some family. I dont want to ask anyone for anything. My sister had a sprinkle for my neice that is 4 years younger than my nephew and it was a lot of clothes and girl type items but nothing big and it was perfect for her.

  • @busymommy23 My SILs throw very over the top parties but my sister offered to throw a more low key sprinkle type of thing which definitely sounds better. Also considering having her put something on the invite about us already having everything we need but I don't want people to take that as us asking for money instead. I guess I'm most concerned with being gift grabby. 
  • @SmashJam That is AWESOME!!!! It's such a giddy, anxiety relieving moment when you hear the heartbeat! 

    Definitely need to watch this trainwreck of a show! Trainwreck in the most entertaining way possible. There are 6 seasons now (6th being just starting). @ashbub714 I was surprised yet not surprised about Nate and Sheila. They had issues from the get go. She came off super controlling!!! Oh!! Cody and Danielle seemed too forced. It did make me laugh when she caught him masturbating and then woouldnt just let him go about his business. He screwed it up on the honeymoon with the "friends" comment. Dumbass. Lol
    I'm watching s6 ep1 now...firefighter....hmmm...should be good.

    Second! I guess it can be earlier since we know what to pay attention to. Who knows!

    My H is super sick right now. He’s got like a 104 degree temp. I’m currently camped out in bed taking his temperature every 10 minutes to see if it’s going to come down. He insists he’s going to go to work tomorrow. Not if I have anything to say about it...

    Yay! Im glad I am not the only one! I started watching it on a whim and just fell in love with the cast and the stories. I havent watched much of the last season that was on so I cant wait to catch up on that! I usually binge it when it comes out on Netflix!!!

  • @hillbillywife yikes!! Is it really 104? Thats super scary. Hope everything is ok! 
  • @busymommy23 I didn’t think I’d like it when I first started it either, but I think it’s my favorite show of all time! 

    @lavillard the thermometer read 104.2. It’s an ear one so idk how accurate it is, but I trust it more than other ones we had. I stacked him on meds last night and it brought it down low enough that I felt comfortable letting him sleep, but it was up again this morning. He still things I’m just gonna turn my head and let him drive the 15 min to work by himself. Without going to the doctors. Serious eye roll. He needs to just grow a pair and go to urgent care. It’s not going to kill him.

  • @hillbillywife wow that’s really high! I hope he gets himself checked out! 

    @d_marie_23 we’ve got a snow day here! We’re looking to get about 6 inches. 
  • I bump thru the regular internet on my phone (not app) and this keeps popping up while I'm reading threads. Then I have to comoletely close up and come back in. Annoying!

  • I keep getting the same popup... one of the reasons I haven't posted so much. So frustrating
  • Oh! Next week I am getting released from the RE office finally to go to the OB. I will be 12 and a half weeks. I love my RE, but that weekly copay is brutal
  • I’m ridiculously jealous of everyone that’s getting snow!! I’m in VA and states above and below us are getting snow but none for us! Just frigid temps  :#

    Ugh, stuck in the box! What you said! I'm currently trying to get out of bed, get dressed and log in to work...blah!
  • @hillbillywife I hope that temp goes down, looks like a doctor is needed this time. Men!
  • Ugh I would kill for a snow day. I did have one meeting cancel because everyone but me is based out of our NY office and they are getting hit with the megastorm. So I guess I get a snow hour? 
  • OMG all you guys are talking about snow while I'm freezing with it being 54 degrees out, wearing a knee length puffer coat today and everything.

  • @hillbillywife, yikes, that temp is high!

    I’m in one of big storm areas so get a snow day. I was supposed to have my NT scan today, but they moved it up to yesterday bc of the storm. Tech said everything looked good, but there was a doc on-call reading the ultrasounds, so I probably won’t get confirmation until tomorrow that all is well. Happily my NIPT results are low risk, so hopefully the call from my obgyn’s office will be just a formality. 

    @amylu914, I guess a snow hour is better than nothing? Sorry you don’t get a snow day. 
  • @runsomewhere we wear shorts in 54 degree weather haha we are fighting negative 20 plus degree windchill currently

    I think it is totally up to you and what you are comfortable with.  I am not a huge fan of showers for second babies, but I totally think they are respectable (and even fun!) for baby #2 when it's the opposite sex.  I see where your family is coming from.
    I had to (yes, HAD to.  She insisted) throw a sprinkle for my sister when she had girl #2.  I don't really understand that, but I am also a "to each their own" kind of person.
