@kbernal2021 luckily he doesn’t snore but he does breath a bit odd sometimes and he’ll have his mouth open throughout the day. H went through it in his early 20s and he said it sucked and H is a mouth breather now which can get annoying sometimes lol hopefully it will be any easy process at a younger age. Eta hope all goes well with your appointment!
@wildtot sorry I just saw you said mouth breathing. Evidently I can't read lol mouth breathing is soooo uncomfortable, so I definitely get wanting to catch it early on! FX that the spray helps him!
Well I had complete and total breakdown. I have this outrageous fear that DD will resent me for having another baby. Not to mention I am feeling completely terrified right now for my c section. Just trying to breathe and relax right now.
@lindsayleigh1989 your DD won’t resent you! I can’t promise she’ll be thrilled but she will always love you no matter what!
as for your cs, you know that this was the best outcome for you. You’ll get to be awake and see your baby right away. You have capable doctors to take care of you! It’ll all be ok!
@lindsayleigh1989 i can totally relate with the feelings of DS and a new baby. I keep hoping he won’t feel neglected or sad because i won’t be just his now and he’s been really attached recently. I hope your c section goes smoothly! Looking forward to your post once your well rested! Sending your positive vibes and wishes!
Hope you had a great birthday, @rachelsogo! And what is this preggo pizza??
Cheers to everyone who had a massage today or will tomorrow! I’ve got one coming up that I had to push out, and I can’t wait! Hopefully it’s not pushing it at 37 weeks.
@foxbaby2016 and all the soon-to-be mamas that noted their scheduled inductions on the weekend thread, good luck!! Can’t wait to see those precious pics and read your birth stories!
@lindsayleigh1989 sorry to hear you’re having a rough night. Wishing you the best with your cs. Your DD may have those moments of jealousy and resentment, but think of all the “proud big sis” moments she’ll also have, and the fun times ahead with her new playmate!
@wildtot@kbernal2021 good luck with your little guys. Hope the ENT and specialist visits are helpful!
@lindsayleigh1989 thinking of you as you prepare for your CS. I know those feelings of anxiety can overwhelm you when so much is about to change, your dd will always love you and look up to you as her mom. She may have her moments as any sibling would but she will also have so many proud moments in this new chapter you are creating. One thing is for sure and she will never have to question your love for her. The same goes for you other mamas dealing with similar anxiety over sibling issues
@lindsayleigh1989 your DD will be okay! It's okay to feel sad about the change she is about to experience and at times it will be challenging for both of you but there will also be so many wonderful times too! Watch her face the first time baby holds her hand. That was my favorite memory of DD and DS early on.
@flockofmoosen3 as a christian that post makes me cringe so much!! Um no! I married a partner we are in this together. Also it js gross and outdated to say one should focus on just making his life as easy as possible. I would only agree if there was a caveat saying he needed to do the same for me. We are called to surrender to each other not make the female subsurvient.
Also you ladies are so wonderful thank you for all the love and support it means the world to me! Feeling so much better now. My mom is here and got my daughter and new baby matching big sister little sister outfits. I'm packed and ready now.

@lindsayleigh1989 good luck with your CS and cannot WAIT to see your announcement. I worry about DS resenting me too, and while he may have his moments of unhappiness for a bit as we adjust to a family of 4, I know eventually he'll love DS2 and have fun playing with him!
Good luck today @lindsayleigh1989 you got this! I understand the anxious feelings about adding a sibling, but just think, this time next year your daughter won’t even remember life without her little sister and none of you will be able to imagine your lives without her.
@lindsayleigh1989 glad you are feeling better and also glad you acknowledged your feelings. Will be thinking of you today and sending you good vibes! You got this, and can’t wait for the announcement!
@lindsayleigh1989 - GL today - 6/26 is an awesome birthday ;-) Congrats to @catftm2018 and @MrsMiller8588 AFM just waiting for the contractor to get here so I can go get myself a coffee and lemon loaf....because this mama just wants a decent BM and caffeine buzz for her birthday

What a day! DH starts his sabbatical at 1 today- I can’t wait! He’s been such a help with DS lately, I’m so excited to have him home all day- though I’m sure I’ll change my tune in a couple days lol.
@flockofmoosen3 This note makes me so mad. It's seriously outdated. There may be some women who are happy to be in a relationship like this and power to them. However, as someone who has a full time career and makes around the same as MH why would I expect anything other than a partnership? Even for someone who is a SAHM, how could anyone think that is not equal in terms of the hard work that you have to put in? We all have to pull our weight in the relationship and around the house.
Come onnnnnnn baby. At my NST and his heart rate is high AGAIN! It started out normal 150sish but now it’s like 180s. I’m getting really frustrated with this. Also noticing small contractions every couple minutes. Like it’ll go from baseline 12 to 30, so not huge but they line up with some cramping and tightening. Maybe baby is just moving a lot and irritating my uterus. IDK I just hope it all calms down so I don’t have to go back to the hospital.
Got word that DH's cousin, who is due today, is already at the hospital 4cm dilated. How cool would it be for her first baby to be born on her due date? I'm so excited!
I'm so excited for all the new babies that have been born in the last few days and the ones that are coming this week! And I agree with @hillbillywife, we need more squishy newborn pictures! (although I totally understand if people are private and don't want pics on the internet).
The guy I work with, his wife was due yesterday and she is still pregnant. I'm sure she's miserable since her first baby came spontaneously a week early so the suspense is getting to her I'm sure. But I am dying to know when I can work from home lol! Come on baby, we're all waiting on you!
I had an NST/fluid check this morning as I always do on Tuesdays and my fluid is still a little high. It has been for a couple weeks (from GD I'm sure) and I was hoping that starting glyburide and getting my fasting and breakfast numbers under control would bring it down some. It hasn't yet but I guess I've only been on it since Friday so I shouldn't expect much change yet. But I am so thankful that my numbers are in the normal range again with just the smallest dose at bedtime. But at my fluid check baby gave us the cutest shot of her chubby face and we saw that she has so much hair! At least at the back of her head. It just got me so excited to see her soon!

Baby boy finally calmed down and his baseline went back to 150s so they let me go. Phew. I can't wait to be done with these twice weekly visits!
@Sarafuss I'm glad your #s are under control now. My fluid was also "on the high side" a couple weeks ago, but not high enough to be concerned yet, I think it was 21. We'll see how it is next week at my final ultrasound. I'm getting nervous because even with adding nighttime insulin my fasting # is being stubborn. Doubling it last night brought it from 110 to 100. If increasing it more doesn't bring it down to 95 we are probably looking at induction at 39 instead of 39+6.
AFM Baby boy was giving me a little scare last night and earlier this morning as he wasn't moving. This was even after food when he usually start going wild. Now that I'm at work and had breakfast he's back to his usual active self and kicking me like crazy. My abs are crazy sore so I'm wondering if he was just going through a growth spurt and extra sleepy.
@nimmle glad the movement picked up! I find my baby alternates between being really sleepy and having dance parties lately, they does not seem to be an in between.
happy birthday @gingerbride26 get that caffeine stat! I have an almond croissant waiting for me as a reward for a stupid 630am call!
@zande2016 glad babe calmed down! @nimmle I feel the same about the note. It was terrifying to read!
I mentioned in the labor thread my cervix is closed. I almost regret getting checked, because it hurt! Just need to let things run their course. I'm still pretty comfortable so it's ok if we go late. 2 days until my mom gets here and a lot to do!
We went and saw Jurassic Park on recliner seats last night and the baby was going CRAZY. Not sure if it was the burrito I had for dinner or the loud movie noises. Seriously ninja level.
@kissableviv how did you like it? My H's birthday is Friday and we're having a babysitter and going to see a movie for the first time in.....10-11 months? Honestly can't even remember haha. But I think that's the movie we're going to see, at the fancy movie theater with reserved reclining seats, food service to your seats etc.
Seriously regrett working this week. I’m just not in the mood to babysit anyone at work right now. I want to go back to binge watching Netflix. I actually came into the office today only because i have my chiro and massage appointments near the office. I’m pretty much useless at work.
Re: Weekday Randoms 6/25
