Dropped DH off at work at 8, then dropped the dog off to get groomed before baby shows up. Then drove home and napped for two hours, then went to my drs appointment then grocery shopping and walked the dog.
Because we only have one car and home is an hour commute to everywhere I have to find random crap to do until DH finishes work.
I spent 6 hours in the car... And drove at least 200 miles today.
I don't feel like cooking supper even though I should technically be well rested from my day "off."
DH totally just suprised me by not complaining when I asked him to cook!?!?
Gold star for DH today

Membrane sweep part 2 within the hour. FX that I'll be more effaced/dilated than yesterday which would indicate yesterday's sweep actually did something other than just cause extreme awkwardness for me.

@kseccomb17 :x thanks doll! Ironically I was thinking about you earlier. I was wondering how things are going with your family and the whole boundaries thing. I thought about it after reading the anxiety thread
OMG so do you guys remember me mentioning that my friend who is a CNM at the hospital will be delivering baby? Well she offered to induce tomorrow! I can't wait til my bf gets home from work so we can discuss it together. I am leaning toward just doing it though

Gosh, I didn't know people even knew who I was in here, let alone remember my problems! Lol. You are too sweet! My family has gotten much better, but I've also been mute diligent about locking the doors abd being really open. My sister had only unknowingly shown up one time since DS was born. I let her know that with the baby I really need a heads up. It's made things a lot easier. They've been pretty helpful, too! I'm feeling pretty grateful Thanks for asking!

If it's what you want and it feels right, do it! Let us know what you decide!
Night #3 of contractions, 10 minutes apart for the last few hours again. I don't get how this keeps happening every night with no results...I'm assuming this is the prodormal labour I've been hearing about? Fun times!
So I just left DD with DH for the first time to run to sonic. He all but made me since I didn't like what was for dinner and was in a total funk. It's been 10 minutes and I've already crammed 2 burgers down my throat so I don't miss a feeding. Part of me wants to stay in the car and run away from my new responsibilities.
Gosh these pp hormones are really messing with me today!
LO always cluster feeds during DS's bedtime routine. How do you balance the physical needs of one child with the emotional needs of the other?
It's been tough here, too. DD is becoming more patient, but I feel guilty having to tell her "in a minute". Or getting frustrated trying to do it all. No advice, just commiserating
My bf and I talked about it and agreed that we should schedule the induction for Saturday. This buys me a little more time in the event that LO comes naturally and also gives us more time to plan. It also gives him a chance to request Sunday Monday and Tuesday off since he doesn't have paternity leave. I'll be 41+5.

Hope baby comes sooner, but I am happy that you finally have an end date in sight. You're in my prayers! I really can't wait to see the little babe!
Thanks girl! My fingers are tightly crossed for labor to start on its own. The US tech today said that my placenta looks mature.
80% effaced, 1 1/2cm. My MW was pleased with my progress from yesterday. Still wants me to get the biophysical profile & NST on Friday, mostly because I was freaking out yesterday. Need to call tomorrow to find of the cost and if insurance will cover it. DH says we are getting it even if OOP, but I'm just so tired of all of these expenses. Hoping I go into labor BEFORE the test, then problem solved. Also, my MW is coming Friday night for another check and sweep, but I'd like to avoid that too. Doing it at home was nice because DH was here, but having her hands all up in me while I was in bed squeezing the shit out of DH's hand was like the world's most awkward threesome....

I want to TP DH. He's having a business argument with BIL (his partner) and he's so loud on the phone pacing around. Take it outside, I don't want the baby to hear hostile angry man voice. Meanwhile this baby is murdering my cervix tonight.
Sorry, @rockstarlaw, just saw this! Georis in Carmel Valley. We get their wine shipments and go every time we're in town. We've been to a lot of wineries, and this is the only one where we like everything they make, therefore it's the only wine club we've ever joined.
