@steminist My MC caused me to have a dairy intolerance but this pregnancy I’m actually able to tolerate some. But I had like 5 drinks of a milkshake last night and got sooo bloated 😔 And that’s the dairy I want most of course!
The weather is SO nice today, full of sunshine and warm for the first time in what feels like forever. It's making me want absolutely nothing to do with work...
I’ll post an update here- despite all the scheduling stuff, I have to give the hospital credit. They moved as smoothly as possible and got him in as close to on schedule as possible (they were actually about 20 minutes ahead!). We got to go home about an hour after he started to wake up. He was completely inconsolable there, so they realized it was in his best interest for us to get home as soon as he met all milestones (he needed to eat a popsicle and drink without vomit). he’s been fine since we got home
he’s currently napping, and for the first time in 2+ years, he’s not snoring and looks like he’s actually resting! Apparently, there was an 80%ish obstruction from his tonsils, so this should make a major difference in his sleep and hopefully eliminate his sleep apnea
@cmbt2 I'm glad everything went well and that your little guy is recovering nicely. Hopefully they'll take your feedback seriously and consider it for the next family.
Just popping in to say it’s 6:15 am, I’ve been in bed tossing and turning for over an hour and out of nowhere I got a craving for Chili’s Southwest egg rolls. Which I haven’t eaten in probably 10 years. Which they might not even still serve. Pregnancy is awesome.

@melanier26, my coworker was just talking about eating these this week, so I think they still have them!
If for some reason your chili's doesn't have them, Longhorn Steakhouse has an app called firecracker chicken wraps which I assume are similar. I just had them last night and OMG YUM.
Oh no, @aprosch! Are you going to have a way to still present your doctoral project and a possible backup for the little one? That's a lot of stress on your plate. I hope you can get it figured out! 🤞🏻
I'm not sure about my doctoral project yet. There's 2 other people in my group so they could easily present, but I'm not sure what that means for my grade! I haven't talked to faculty yet, I'm planning to soon though. So I'll wait and see what they say. I'm sure I'll be able to find someone to take care of DD1 while I'm in the hospital, I'll have to figure out who I want to though. I really want my mom to be there for delivery (she was the first time and she's a nurse) but worst case, she can watch DD1.

Ummm so I just checked. They do still make them, now I NEED them, and am hoping that I can wait until Tuesday to fulfill that craving. Otherwise I'll get the eye roll from SO when I bring them home after work today. I may also have just texted a friend that makes an almost better version (her cilantro sauce is to die for) in the thoughts of trading my pregnancy confessional to her for the offer of her making me food (she always offers). I'm not a nice friend.

@cooaladolly Haha sorry (or you’re welcome) for sharing my random early morning cravings! We don’t have a Chili’s nearby but it’s probably for the best as I woke up this morning sooo nauseous and I’m sure the cheese and beans wouldn’t help!
Awww @melanier26 I was able to make it home without stopping at Chili's, but got caught by Taco Bell instead. I hope your nausea was at its worst this morning and you're feeling a bit better.

Speaking of egg rolls, if anyone wants a good laugh, this is a true story that happened when I was 9w along with DS1.
DH and I only saw each other on weekends as he was at school for his graduate degree 3 hours away. He was coming out for the weekend like he always did. When he walked in the door, I burst into tears because I wanted egg rolls and he didn’t have any with him. I was absolutely inconsolable about it
Note, I never once told him I wanted egg rolls. I wanted him to magically know to bring them. Yep, he made a late night trip to the only open Chinese place to get me egg rolls
@cmbt2 I love this story so much, especially because I just cried last night when I realized my husband had eaten the last of the salsa. He made a late night run to get more because I was just devastated. We're lucky these guys put up with us!
We got an offer for our house!! We planned a price drop and our agent made some last minute calls and we ended up with an offer for $5k over what we were planning to drop it too 🙌🏼 inspection is on Wednesday!
On a side note, my super sentimental and clinically anxious husband is extremely anxiety ridden and wondering if he'll regret the move... I know it's because he's scared of change and just nervous everything that goes along with it (he's the one who picked the new house and got me on board!) but I just want him to be happy and it's making me sad and anxious too 😥
