    @sandy5693 for our first 4 transfers I kept all my meds and used them the next time (really didn't have anything left over from retreival). This FET was our last embryo, and I had a friend doing a FET two months after we did, so I passed all my meds along to her. Because it was a friend I passed along my open Progesterone in Oil, but we found out it expired 28 days after it was open, so that was wasted :( Otherwise, I'm in a local infertility Facebook group and have seen people offer up meds there.ย

    @wolfiebaby I wouldn't be too stressed about laying on your back! I asked my OB about that with my son because I kept waking up on my back when I was sleeping. She said our bodies are pretty efficient and if we're doing something that harms baby (like cutting off blood flow) we'll start to feel uncomfortable and want to move. I like to lay down on the couch when reading so I've been trying to prop myself up with pillows so I'm mostly sitting up / lounging and it seems to work okay.

    @pangolindrome Kick counts aren't so much about meticulous counting as they are for having an awareness of your baby's regular rhythm of activity. If I sense that baby isn't moving as much as usual that prompts me to do a kick count to see if I'm right or if I just missed it. If you already know baby consistently moves so much at certain times of day that's great! You don't have to count every day, just be alert to changes in movement, particularly if she's not moving or not moving as much as usual when she typically moves.

    @wolfiebaby Ditto to what @mia80 said!

  • @krthouse I am nesting so hard this week!ย  I've been cleaning closets and organizing and my body feels it.ย  Congrats on your midterm :)ย 
    krthousestephers_
  • @sandy5693 There with you on the nesting. I wish I could do more but my ability toย do is limited by space. I feel like I need to figure out a couple of drawers for baby things and see what items in the kitchen cabinets we don't use, but that's about it. Apparently my in-laws were talking about how they expect me to start nesting for real and I'm like... well thanks, there's hardly anything I can do anyways. LOL

    @krthouse Thank you, I thought it was something like that but I'm so new to all this and I really just want to understand it all. Baby June already has routines that match up pretty well with mine, so she's not too difficult to keep track of.

    @krthouse I canโ€™t remember, is YS in daycare at all? Do you know any other moms there? DD has a friend whose mom had a baby last year and her parents live out of town. We text occasionally and she mentioned being worried what she would do with big sister if the baby came before they got here, so I offered to take her, even though it ended up not being necessary. Weโ€™ve had a couple of play dates so I think she was comfortable enough with my parenting style/knew that her daughter would be in good hands. Would something like that be an option?
  • @krthouse I'm about to start a search for a mother's helper/sitter for when my C date rolls around. We have no family help. I have one friend that could do it but my oldest daughter can't stand her. I've considered asking a friend to come visit and stay during the day but my kids are A LOT and TV as a distraction isn't an option. Not only that but my oldest has debilitating anxiety (like if I'm chopping vegetables she winces when I'm chopping because she's afraid I'm going to cut myself so me in surgery is not easy on her. ) So she needs someone who understands her needs.ย 
    My parents aren't in the picture and my husband's parents are dead. It's very stressful.ย

  • @bows22 Not in daycare, DH work M-F, mostly from home, and I work weekends so we haven't needed it.ย 

    I'm thinking of seeing if he can go have a sleepover with my brother and his family. They're not in town, but about a 1.5/2 hour drive so doable. It just makes me so anxious because he hasn't really had much by way of babysitters at all since he's a pandemic baby. I think whatever we do I want to do a test run for both his peace of mind and mine. I want to make this the least traumatic for him as possible.ย

  • @sandy5693 can you please send some of your nesting energy this way? I have a ton to do (convert the guest bedroom to nursery, sort through baby clothes to keep unisex things, see what we still need), and have zero time to do it. I also keep rationalizing that the kiddo will be in our room for the first several months, so that kills my motivation.ย

    ๐—ฅ๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒs/rants: Iโ€™m at my law school for my 15 year reunion! It has been great being back in the area and seeing people. Iโ€™m also the only pregnant person in the class so feeling like a bit of a spectacle. Unfortunately there is forecasted bad weather in my connecting city (Newark) and United preemptively canceled both my Sunday flights yesterday evening. ย So now Iโ€™m faced with driving 5 hours with my NYC-based friends from school and getting over to LGA for a one-way flight I booked last night and keeping fingers crossed that LGA keeps everything moving.ย

  • @EmilyE13 I really can't imagine having other kids in the house and trying to get anything done - I have so much respect for you mamas!! I can hardly find the motivation between my work schedule and my petย  :Dย  You are doing great!
