Friday Randoms!

I can't focus at work at all! My productivity is going to be so low for today, but since I'm working up until I have the baby I'm trying to stay ahead of the game for my coworkers sake. But now I have all my work done for the month of December already and have a head start into January. I'm doing little things like catching up on filing, but that doesn't count towards my productivity units.

The clinic is closed today or if call my midwife and maybe ask if there was a prescription she could do.
I'm not gonna waste l&d time with this, so I'll just deal and hope it goes away.

Suppose I'm up for the day. I'll go start cleaning. I texted my mom and asked if she was up and what time they were leaving. No response. The other day I asked, and they had no idea what time they are leaving. I hate that. I'm a planner, and I'd like to know what time to expect people.
I'll probably just half ass my house today. I'll get it back to looking decent, but that's it.

I second the Zantac, up to twice a day, and I've also been drinking Chamomile tea lately which I read helps. The one I got is Chamomile-honey-vanilla, I'm guessing the honey may help coat the throat more and add to relief? Whatever it is, it seems to help!

Well 3 out of my 4 morning clients came so it's been busier than I anticipated. They all had comments about my belly: "wow, you're REALLY pregnant", "I think you've dropped since last week", and my personal favorite "you look miserable!". So that about sums up my day so far! I only have one client scheduled for the afternoon so that will make it go by slow but less mental energy I'll have to expend!

As far as those having sex to get things rolling we dtd last night (not to start labor, just to help out poor DH) and it was so miserable I had the thought "I hope I don't have to do that again until 6 weeks pp...". Last week we had one good romp and MIL is out of town for two weeks so hopefully we'll get another good one in before baby, but it's looking less likely every day!

@britb618 I'm the worst at hiding my true emotions when DH gives me something I don't like. This Christmas is the first year I've managed not to let on that I was not really that into what he got me. He's so sweet and tries so hard I'm trying to be better about just appreciating the gift but it's SO hard for me to fake it. Seriously though, what's up with them not just getting what we show them we want? Then everyone would be happy!

I threw up this morning. Morning sickness at 37 weeks? Wtf? Oh well. I feel better now.

I really, really want to go see Into the Woods but we will probably end up going to see The Hobbit because DH got passes from work. I haven't been the biggest fan of The Hobbit movies. I like Lord of the Rings better.

Add me to the heartburn party. I thought I was going to vomit last night it was so bad. I feel horrible because I wake up DH when it happens and he thinks it's hospital time. No, honey, sorry. Just bad heartburn.

As per the sex, I did tell DH last night that I wanted to start having lots of it. I'm uncomfortable, but I do want to have the LO in January as opposed to right after Christmas. My Christmas cards state "Little One coming January 2015" and I'd hate to be a liar. :P

I've got to get grocery shopping done either today or tomorrow. We're going out to dinner with my parents and grandfather tonight, so I'm in no rush to get it done today.

I hope everyone starts to feel better soon! Also, sorry to those who had a less than satisfactory Christmas. *HUGS*

Loving all the bath comments! I just wish I actually fit in my bath. Wherever we move next that's a must have or must get for me. One of those giant Jacuzzi tubs...... sigh..... wishful thinking.

laceysbryan · December 2014

DH has been running a fever since Monday and I finally pestered him enough to go to urgent care today since his doctor's office is closed. I dropped him off on my way to my OB appt (same medical campus), and he texted me to let me know the guy he was sitting next to had been waiting for 2.5 hours. Chances of me being able to get him to wait long enough to be seen: slim to none.

The receptionist just got a pizza delivered at my OB's office and the waiting room smells like pizza now. I haven't eaten lunch, so this is basically torture.

I had the weirdest dream the other night that baby could wrap her hand around my finger. I could see her hand pushing out of my stomach and when i put my hand up to it she grabbed me. then she bit me and i scolded her... very strange

jmcmoe · December 2014

DH came down with a nasty cold...I hope he keeps it to himself. He is such a winey baby when he is sick and earlier told me he felt like he was complaining like a woman...I had to correct him and say he was most definitely acting like a man because every man I know is a huge wimp when they are sick! He slept for two hours after chores/breakfast and now has went back to work and told me he was hoping to come back for another nap before night chores...that likely won't happen! If it does, I will be shocked. I think I may pick up pizza for supper tonight because I don't feel like cooking and pizza is sounding really good to me right now!

I can relate to some of you ladies with back pain. Yesterday I spent most of the day sitting on hard wooden chairs and when I got home and put DS down for his nap, I took my first ever bath for this pregnancy. It was glorious, but boring. I tried playing scrabble on my phone but water and technology don't mix so I got nervous and put my phone down so I didn't accidentally drop it in.

I was considering dtd with DH starting New Years eve, but if he is still sickly by then there is no way I will be touching him! Last time we attempted, was like 2 months ago and it was super painful for me so I'm pretty sure I will have to "control" the situation this time

hahaha

I'm really hoping I have my baby this weekend because if I have to go back to work on Monday, I'll probably cry. In fact, I'm so eager I'm even considering having sex with my husband to see if it does anything.

Woah! You must be serious.

I'm with you - I think I'm going to start having sex again just for this purpose.

I totally did this today!! I am contracting just need them closer together!!!!

I'm seriously debating getting a hotel room in a hotel with an indoor pool so that I can float peacefully for hours.

I actually told DH that if it doesn't rain tonight I want to go to one of the hotel pools (we live near 23064982723689 hotels lol) and relax. Sadly our pool isn't temperature controlled and the rain last night made it quite chilly.

I ended up taking a nap AND being productive today. Didn't even know that was possible for me haha. I got my parent's dog groomed (is it bad that they pay me to groom him and I still raid their fridge when I'm there? They had ice cream!), got to the bank, picked up a new bag of food for my bunnies, got all of our business accounting up to date for the end of the year. But now I'm thoroughly worn out and may go try to do nap round 2.

That sounds heavenly

4littlebears · December 2014

My house feels like it exploded, and I feel like I NEED to get things organized before baby's here. But my energy is like 30 below zero. I've got to get it in gear. My goal of having my bag packed by Christmas didn't happen, now the goal is to have it done by New Years!

I wasn't lying, that hotel idea sounds heavenly. I only have 1 bathing suit and it won't even cover my belly, but I'm seriously considering trying to get a room for our family for new years just so I can float around for a while!

Josie400 · December 2014

We are now on the 2nd page of the birth announcements! This is exciting.

MLC1990 · December 2014

@emmyg65‌ did that this morning as soon as hubby came home from duty.

Immediately regretting that life decision. I'm having the worst cramps and back pain all day long. I told him I'm never having sex again.

raveness · December 2014

So, funny thing just happened.

I'm texting my mom about where we are all going out to dinner. She told me she will look up a restaurant when she gets back to the house. I ask her what she's doing.

"Looking for a store that sells emu oil products."

Now I'm picturing my mom rubbing her face on an emu.

Josie400 · December 2014

I've been having coworkers come over and ask me how I'm feeling more often. I think only a small percentage is because they care, the rest of it is just because they're just trying to gauge when they will have to take over my cases.

I don't blame them. I'd be doing the same thing.

WillCMyInk · December 2014

Go to work they said...you'll get off around 3:00 they said...it's now 4:00 and I am still here...WTF?!

There was really no point in me being here today other than people (the owners) apparently freaking out because there are too few employees in the office...

I take Prilosec OTC, my MFM prescribed it for me during me first and second pregnancies.

It does NOT feel like friday. It feels like it should be sunday.

This is the last friday I have withOUT an OB appointment until I'm holding my baby! It could be anywhere from the next week + 2 days to 4 weeks! I'm starting more and more to hope for an induction at 39 weeks. My impatience is growing!
