  • I am absolutely losing my mind. A student asked me for scizzors and glue today so I gave it to her. 10 mins later I'm like omg I didn't help that student and she needed something. So I went over to her and was like, "did you need something from me?" She's like..."yeah...and you gave it to me..."
    Clearly.
    _______________ Haha I knew it was wrong but my phone wouldn't fix it so I said Fuck it. I have also lost my GAF. My phone also randomly capitalizes things.
    Nooo BE, you're the grammatically correct one around here keeping us afloat!

    @shannonliggett‌ - that's tough. I get everyone isn't 100% all the time... but I can't imagine being expe ted to pay attention at that point I'm time, either!

  • @katekat8721  I was wondering if you were in labor b/c I didn't see the 3rd tri check in on PAIF.  Come to think of it I didn't see our PAIF check in here either, wonder if our check-in leader is in labor???  So many babies!!!

     

    IF, 5 losses, 1 son, 1 on the way.

    My two year old DS is showing signs of potty training. Normally I would be thrilled about this, but right now, it is the last thing I want to deal with. I don't have the strength to pick him up and sit him on the potty every so often and I don't have the energy to change him a million times a day when he decides his diaper is too wet/dirty and takes it off himself (sometimes dumping poop on the floor in the process). Even if we made progress now, I won't be able to keep up with it during a c-section recovery, and he would probably regress once the babies get here anyway. Just give me a couple months, dude!!

  • @LilNunz1‌ I found that out when I went to register! The buy buy baby store manager quickly corrected me saying chicos is a women's clothing store and "Chicco aka key-ko" is the baby brand!

  • When I delivered, I brought my own DNR. The hospital was shocked that at my age I had my documents in order. I think that nurse sucked for not telling you what you signed but legally she probably couldn't have said much more than, "It's a DNR." She still sucks. And your husband would've had an epic lawsuit had something happened to you.

    My brother's SIL was due with twins shortly after me. She delivered them nice and healthy last week. She went blind from pre-e. Or so my brother says. He is not a reliable source of info, nor is his GF. I asked my doctor and she said she has never heard of it being permanent but my SIL insists it is. Anyway, so crappy to not be able to see your precious babies, and deal with everything that comes from suddenly losing your vision.

    The Geek squad is coming this morning and my dog has randomly been pulling her fur out. I tried to pick some of it up but it hurt so I gave up. Hopefully I never see them again, LOL, because they will think I am a disgusting mess. Housekeeper comes on the 9th. That's a long way away.

    Anyone else go from" I want this baby to come now!!" To " nah... LO can stay a few more weeks" I've been switching back n forth almost hourly... Had some idk/maybe beginning of contractions yesterday ( stomach tightened like BH but felt pain only like in my cervix ( not period-like at all)) Even though this is my third, I've never gone into labor on my own so I still feel like a FTM... I apologize for the random thoughts/comments ( no real questions just ponderings) though, I suppose that is what this thread is for... & the babies!!!!! Holy cow! Loving all the pics of their squishy little faces!! End random rant
    I totally get this feeling.  I started realizing today that the later I have this baby, the later I have to come back to work (I'm taking 12 weeks and I so do not want to come back until after Labor Day)!

    Also, I start exclusively working from home starting Friday, so I'm feeling much more Zen about the whole pregnant thing...
    No waffling from me. I am firmly in the "DO NOT COME YET!" camp. I am never ready for my babies to arrive, LOL. My doctor doesn't do checks unless you want them but during my sono yesterday the tech said my cervix was long and closed so I did a happy dance.

    House cleaner came yesterday, crib arrived and got set up this morning - I'm starting to feel pretty good about all of this! Of course, I still have yet to wash and sort LO's clothes, but that's what today is for I guess. Laundry is nice because it's 5 minutes of work and then 30 minutes of sitting around with your feet up. Except folding/putting away - that's where it all falls down, of course. DH is going to get home tonight and the couch will probably be covered in clothes I was too lazy to bring upstairs and put away.

    I was getting breathless while walking up stairs with laundry so I started making DH bring the basket up. But doing the baby laundry made me super excited. All the cute little outfits that now smell like baby make me happy.

    I have been waiting to do the baby laundry until this weekend and I am oddly excited about it!  All those tiny clothes and sheets!  I am not much of a squee-er, but this is a squee situation.

    Also- today is my first day of summer break and I stayed in bed until 9:45.  It.  Was.  Amazing.  Even with all the hip pain.  Definitely milking the no-baby-no-school thing until baby arrives.  

    I have been doing this too! I'm so glad school is over for the year and I get a bit of time to myself before baby gets here. But, now I'm ready for her to arrive. The later she stays on the inside is less time I get to be home with her. I'm not planning on taking any leave at the beginning of the year, so I want her here now so I can get at least 8 weeks with her, :(

  • No baby laundry has been washed but five bins have been sorted and loaded into baskets for eventual cleaning. Does that count? I should also hire a photographer, order a crib (and a dresser to put the aforementioned clothes) and buy some bedding. Oh well. LOL.

  • @MrsCase1‌ You always crack me up with your "oh, should I be doing something?" attitude...! Love it.

    Here's my SS situation at work:

    Yesterday my assistant told me she's been having a hard time at work for the last two weeks. Like, she cries every day.

    Today, she emailed me and said she can only do 20 hours a week, for her mental health. We'd increased her hrs about a month ago to 24-ish, and we expected she'd do closer to 30-35 during my maternity leave.

    She and my boss are already having issues communicating (I think the problem is with both of them, not just one). So I was already kind of nervous about how my maternity leave would go for them... and now I just feel screwed.

    I either have to fire her and hire a FT person who can handle the job, and worry about training on top of all that I have to do before I can "leave" for two months... Or, I hire a second PT person and still worry about training........ Or, what? I just have someone covering 20 hours during our busy season??? That's only 4 hrs/ day that someone is here answering the phone on weekdays. That's really sucky customer service and won't fly w my boss.

    Anyway, I'm sure my boss will say let's fire her and start fresh with someone better. He's been complaining about her speed (he thinks she's slow) for a while now anyway.

    Gahhhhhhhh. Why right now?!

    I can't even think about that. It's been mid 80s and I'm so miserable! This weekend is supposed to be in the 90s and I'm dreading it. 107 would make me want to throw up!

    The dr told us today at our pre-op appointment that if we come in next week for our c-section and baby has flipped, they will send us home and we will wait for natural labor. I completely appreciate avoiding unnecessary surgery but the idea of that makes me want to cry.

    I am so over work. (Such a bad thing because I plan on working until LO gets here, which is not suppose to happen until the end of June.) My boss asked where something was it was literally 10 steps away from me and I just stared at it, he ended up getting up and getting it. I feel super bad but my feet are so swollen that every time I take a step it feels like my skin is going to split in half, I just want my bed.
  • I found out at my appt yesterday that my OB has to go to NH right after my surgery, so I'm pretty bummed BC I had so many complications with my last LO and I don't trust the staff there (mainly BC they did several incision checks and didn't see that it was open until I told them the night before I was
    supposed to be discharged). Doc said it will probably happen again and I'm worried about getting discharged and having everything I need set up with visiting nurse service. They also tend to not follow his orders, such as when to take the blow cuffs off and how much heparin to give me and other medicines not to give me. Also he doesn't do circumcisions and neither does my pediatrician. He said there may be a pediatric surgeon who would do it but if the glans is less than 2 cm they won't so idk how this will work. Both the OB and pediatrician said we may have to come back a few weeks or months later to do it. Has anyone heard of that?

    Also my job is still being difficult. We have school until June 27 and my c is scheduled for the 6. My chiro wrote a letter for me to stop working as of the 16 so I've been home. I have been getting calls and emails every day asking where's this and where's that and I seriously left them everything they need it's ridiculous. Today I get an email and a follow up phone call that they cannot accept a letter from the chiro it had to be from the OB. My chiro says this is against the law. I don't know what to do anymore. I can't stand at work all day and I can't sit down with 32 teenagers in my room and they were not accommodating me in the least bit. The letter clearly states that I need to be off my feet, driving as little as possible and resting for the next three weeks. Any advice?

    I am over company and I really haven't had thay much. I just get so nervous anytime anyone holds my baby and I always keep telling people that I am fixing to feed so they will either not hold her or just give her right back. I forgot what a nervous mom I am.. I thought it would be a little better with my second baby.

    I have a pretty good feeling that I'll be the same way. I wasn't like this at all with DS bit I've already caught myself thinking about how I don't want people holding LO for various reasons.
  • @ugabamafans‌ my dog is constantly up my ass, I wish I could read her mind because I feel like she knows it's almost time!

  • Is anyone else's pet acting weird? My dog is following me around and will just sit there staring at me. It's freaking me out.

    My 1 year old has been acting weird... does that count? He's usually pretty independent and likes to play with his toys by himself, but lately he won't leave me alone. He constantly wants to be sitting next to me, and he's been super lovey. Which is cute, I'm definitely not complaining about the extra hugs and kisses from him lol It'd just be nice if he wasn't constantly next to me... like when I'm trying to pee.

    My dog follows me everywhere to begin with, but my cat has been SUPER affectionate lately...usually she's partial to DH. But now I can't even go to the bathroom without her following me and trying to get attention.
