I'm in Turkey for Christmas, doing a bus tour. It's amazingly awesome and going well, but I swear that baby girl knows I'm about to go hours without a bathroom every time I get on and decides at that moment that my bladder is the perfect trampoline or punching bag. It's the most gosh aweful 'I have to pee' experience, ever.
Oh, and I laughed at something darling hubby said, last night (while lying on my back) and noticed that my belly button went from an inny to an outy while laughing. So weird to see the outie!
I was looking forward to H and I both sleeping in today since he's off work. Well he forgot to turn his alarms off so twice I was woken up by that, managed to fall back asleep, and now the heavy rain and the sound of my dog licking her paws has me awake. Of course H is passed out, totally unphased by the alarms and dog. Ergh.
Also is it bad I'm gonna have a hard time pretending I'm not still pissed at my MIL tonight? I should get some Christmas spirit in me or something.
I cannot wait for H to open his gifts from me tomorrow.
Happy Christmas eve! My dd still has a terrible cough, only at night. Needless to say I have not gotten much sleep lately. I'm hoping the cough starts to get better soon.
I'm working a half day then off till Jan 5! I'm so excited to have some time off. We're going to see my ILs though in a few days so I'm not really looking forward to that. They smoke like chimneys and will smoke inside even when we've asked them not to. But with my dds cough and me getting a sore throat I will throw a huge fit if they do it. I know it's cold outside but that's really not my problem.
Merry Christmas Eve! I'm off to work at 5am, one of the busiest days for doggie resorts! DH got up at 4:30 to make sure I had bacon for breakfast. Love that man!

Merry Christmas Eve (or just happy Wednesday). I'm "working" today. So much of my job is delivering bad news to people and there's no way I'm calling people to let them know their claim is denied or they are liable for an accident today. Nope. I'm just going to do the easy stuff and hope they decide to let us go home early!
Happy Christmas Eve! I am at work until noon. Dh is home with DS. We had DS at the hospital yesterday. He has until noon today to use the restroom or we have to go back. They suspect a possible intestinal blockage. If that is the case santa will be visiting the hospital this year. We are preparing for the worst and hoping for the best. This is life with cystic fibrosis and we are used to it but the fact that it's Christmas is the worst.
Happy Christmas Eve!! I am currently at work boo, and I am expecting the hospital to be busy with people trying to get in before christmas. Tonight I will be preparing meals for the 20 people I have coming over tomorrow for the big holiday. Wish me luck haha
Anyways, I can't wait for Christmas to pass so I can stop seeing and hearing that ridiculous Kmart Joe Boxer pregnant women dancing commercial!!
OMG I hate that commercial! I don't understand it in the least. And the women are obviously wearing fake bellies, because what pregnant woman can bend over as easily as they do at the end of their dance. At least, I can't.
@happymamax2 i am so on board with that commercial..i HATE it. The first time.my 2 year old daughter seen it she runs and says "mommy, mommy, you" i was like omg i wish i could feel that good at 6 months pregnant. Shes crazy.
Family is almost here and i really dont feel like getting out of my bed. Hope everyone has a merry Christmas eve. Or a happy Wednesday!!
@babys2014, ah that is sad! I hope your lip starts to feel better soon.
My sweet teenage coworker made me tamales and bought me chocolates for Christmas. These damn pregnancy hormones, but it seriously makes me want to cry that he thought of me.
I stayed home from work today because I hardly got any sleep last night and H had the day off anyway. So, now he is making us breakfast while we watch A Muppet Christmas Carol.
@bmstee03 happy to hear you've made some progress, hope it continues and you can avoid the hospital
Add me to list of hating the joe boxer commercial.
We haven't officially moved into the new house yet, but we are having a sleepover tonight, dd is so excited. I'm not really excited about sleeping on an air mattress, but it should be a fun memory. And as much as I want to do nothing today I have to go by the house and do some cleaning before we stay there tonight.
Man I have to youtube this commercial. I havent seen the Joe boxer commercial! I loved their jingle bells/balls commercial last year with the guys in the boxers. Haha
Not feeling it today. I don't want to get out of bed, I don't want to be all Christmasy, I really don't want to be stuck in a car with my drunk parents looking at Christmas lights tonight while DH gives me the "Your Family Is So Fucked Up" glare. Guess I'll fake it til I make it for DD
Hope everyone had a great day! Merry Christmas Eve!! I like last years joe boxer commercial much better! lol I get to clean the house before visiting my H family for their Christmas dinner and gift exchange. Sounds like a nice evening, but they are very loud and annoying and there will be at least 30 people in a smaller space. So no where to retreat to for quiet time!!
This is just a quick drive by as I am at work til 3pm today and I actually have to work! (the audacity!)
But Happy Holiday Eve to all those who celebrate Christmas, and Happy Hanukkah to those who celebrate it as it ends today!! Also upcoming Kwanzaa to those who celebrate it- Friday is close!
And for everyone else, HAPPY DAY.
I just have one thing to leave in this random: I think my MIL is the female embodiment of Mr. Burns from the Simpsons. She looks like him, and is also just as selfish and evil. I... just can't wait to get having to see her OVER with so I can go back to infrequent emails.
Mine is just a drive by for the moment just want to aw a pic. We had a growth u/s yesterday and my chubby baby girl is weighing in at 3 pounds 2 oz already at 28 weeks bahaha the tech said "omg that's alot, i mean it's fine but just a big baby" lol oh boy also found out that my GD test came back fine so good news. Here is my chubby LO who we also think is looking like she is flipping us off haha

My H and I just exchanged x-mad gifts - we are about to head to his parents house and we feel awkward exchanging in front of them.
He surprised me with earrings and a necklace I had pointed out made by a local artist, a scarf also locally made I picked out, and needlepoint coasters.
I bought him a scarf, pjs, a candle, and lotion and he loved it!
Today I'm 'entertaining' my niece and stepson. The same stepson who hasn't come over since September. He might be very upset when he realizes he's only getting a couple presents. Merry Christmas Eve everyone!!!
For me I've spent 2 1/2 hours sitting in Firestone with my car for *just* an oil change. Smdh. And of course they found a bunch of stuff that needs to be fixed (granted I know some of them are legit) and I'm like yeah I'll pass today.
@ruemorgan oh good i thought i was the only one who has not seen that commercial lol i don't watch a lot of TV so i guess that why i haven't seen it but will probably have to you tube it and those shoes are great lol don't feel bad i just bought a pair of baby 12mo Sperrys... They cost way WAY too much for baby shoes lol i had to sneak them too cuz I promised SO that i wouldn't buy any more baby stuff until after our shower haha in my defense i have restrained myself much more than before i promised that lol

I am having no luck with my custom baby orders lately. I ordered a coming home outfit and blanket from boco baby with his name Connor on it and received an order that had Conner written all over it.
A month ago I ordered a hat from another shop in charcoal gray with a tan name patch, what did I just get? Hunter green with a white name patch. Like my specific notes are right there, why don't these people double check the order is right before shipping it out? Custom stuff takes forrrrever to come in and I don't feel like waiting twice as long for the right order. First world problems.
I cancelled my monthly spa package today. I know, a monthly spa package sounds ridiculous. But it was one thing I splurged on ($50/month). I'm usually the one wearing clothes, jackets and shoes for years and years. I don't splurge on myself much. But I can no longer justify the expense when I have a LO needing diapers and billion other things.
So... I'm a tad sad to let go of my monthly happy place. But it's for an outstanding cause!

Merry Christmas everyone! Also working here, but finishing up at noon so not much longer to go... thank goodness. I'm exhausted... our dogs have decided that getting us up at 1:30am EVERY night this past week is good fun, and run outside to investigate something near our fence line... will have to get out there this afternoon to see what it is they are checking out and having so much fun with in the middle of the night.
Also, friends from high school days are in town for the holidays. I'm sure she means well, but she asked me why the nursery wasn't done yet, and says things like "the baby could come any time now", "my sister delivered four weeks early you know" and "is your doctor concerned, given your age?" Thanks. You're a jerk.
Merry Christmas Eve to everyone who celebrates. I feel left out as I've never seen this Joe Boxer commercial so I'm off to google and then come back and finish my random, off I go
I'm hoping I peed myself today. I had literally just gone to the bathroom and was playing on my phone while standing in the kitchen. Then as I'm standing there I feel this warm liquid between my legs. I told DH that I think I just peed myself. I go to the bathroom and it doesn't smell like anything. So I change my clothes and now in the back of mind is the what if it wasn't pee. My doctor's office is closed for the rest of the week so if I'm really concerned, I can call the doctor on call whom I'm assuming would refer me to the hospital. I never had this issue with DS so it's all new to me.
Has anyone else peed themselves without doing anything before that could have caused it (such as laughing, coughing, etc)? I'm guessing the baby just moved or kicked in a way that the urine just came out?
Yes, I've peed myself like this several times. I also get a discharge that's thin and clear or yellowish like urine that is copious enough to soak through my clothes
@jcar2 if it makes you feel better i have actually never had a single time where i have actually done anything to make myself pee. Every time i pee myself it is a complete surprise when i go to the bathroom and notice myself wet which is now happening a lot and why i switched to incontinence liners rather than regular ones i mean at first i couldn't fathom not realizing that i was peeing myself so i legit thought that something was wrong but alas everything was fine meh normally it isn't a whole lot expect for the time i woke up from a nap with my pants soaked. That freaking sucked. As far as the smell, mine does normally smell like it but if i have drank a lot of water then it doesn't. That might be what's going on.

@ruemorgan those shoes are awesome!! At least you know he will get a lot of use from them!
@jcar2 I've had baby kick me really hard in the bladder and had some pee come out, not a lot but definitely couldn't control it. I really hope that's all it was for you! Keep us updated!!
We took our pup for his little surgery at FIL's clinic yesterday. He did great and didn't have to have any teeth pulled which is awesome, we were originally told at least one or two. But the anesthesia messed him up so bad, he spent all night laying in my lap whining like a little piglet! It was so sad!
We spent the day with my parents, in laws, and my MIL's sister and her family. It was amazing! Everyone gets along so well and the food was so good! My MIL's sister is a doula so we spent the whole time talking birth day and good things for the rest of my pregnancy.
SO woke up early to go to my favorite Italian deli (we live 8 hours away now and only get it now when we come home for the holidays) and stood in line in the cold at 7am this morning for 2 hours to stock me up on my favorite raviolis. I really love this man.
Merry Christmas Eve! Happy holidays to everyone else!
Hi girls! I'm off work till January 2 but I've been so busy today. Running around like crazy. Flying out tomorrow to see family. Our flight randomly got changed and we now land 2.5 hr later than we were supposed to, which royally screws our entire Christmas Day plans. What's worse is when I called to find out what happened, it's changed in OCTOBER and nobody notified us. Cue H and I both being livid. There's really nothing we can do so we will have to make the best of it. We were then going to have a long layover but we got them to change our first flight so we won't have a 3 hr layover now. Bright side is we can sleep in a little bit and won't have such a long layover. Gotta pack and clean and get things ready for the dog sitter.
As for the kmart commercial, I guess I don't understand why it's pregnant ladies. What about just regular women? I think i would like it better.
Baby is starting to move and kick so hard that my belly is moving all around the other night she kicked me so hard that it was painful for the first time! Still loved it though
Hope all the mamas with the sick kiddos are ok and the kids get better!
@janda426 this keeps happening with stuff I order, nothing custom but we keep getting stuff that's damaged and we have to send back. Not even just baby stuff. Anything we order.
