    It is still Saturday here, going to bed now after my Hypnobabies script. Since I probably won't read through the randoms (they're always several pages by the time I log in) I just want to wish everyone a great Sunday and GO HAWKS!!!

    It's a back and forth to the bathroom early morning here. I don't know if it's something I ate, or if I'm coming down with a wretched stomach bug, but LO is active and protesting along with me.

    Every time I start to drift off to sleep I suddenly wake up to a panic attack. Finally just gave up on it. Looks like I will pinning baby stuff and wedding ideas on pinterest tonight in order to keep me occupied until I'm too exhausted and fall right asleep. Not that I'm complaining about that ;)
    Edit: because maybe I am a little more tired than I thought and obviously can't spell.

    I have a question about newborn photos. Generally speaking do most photographers want a few pictures with the parents? Do I need to dress up too??? The photographer is doing then for free to beef up her portfolio. I will ask her but I'm just thinking that 4 days after having him I'm not sure that I will want to be taking pictures!

    We did like two family ones! It was kind of nice to have an excuse to shower and do my hair! I would say its totally up to you!

    I hardly slept. Been having BH contractions again. They were so unpleasant. And then came the nausea... argh. Almost over, right?

    @niknikit‌ I hope you feel better

    @Disneygeek77‌ mmm IHOP. I don't have GD but I haven't eaten a lot this pregnancy. Nothing sounds good when I go to eat.

    @papapalie‌ I think you can do what you want. I would say maybe be in one photo with your little one.

    @elleswarth‌ that sounds so scary

    Really wanting to feel better. This headcold is terrible. I really need to get better before my c section on the 5th.

    Morning ladies! Sitting here sipping my hazelnut coffee with red velvet creamer (excellent) while m watched sophia the first (ftms of girls- this will be a go to for all of you soon! Stms already know this)
    @papapalie‌ you may want one or two family pics - we didn't do newborns with professional bc I just did them but that is one of the reasons I would have liked a prof to do them bc it's always nice to have a nice pic of you and baby, photogs are normally pretty good at taking the pic at right angle so you look best- and as bad as we all think we look you always look back at the pics of pregnancy and after giving birth and see the beauty - not right away but a few months later you will :)

    @CrazyMonkeyBear‌ I'm with you- I have no idea how I'll make it to c
    Section date in three weeks- I'm so swollen , totally over the heartburn and restless leg syndrome and seriously i haven't stopped eating sweets and everything I see so I need this baby out ASAP before I gain another 20 lbs - I was so good the whole pregnancy so mad at myself for that but I keep saying well this is my last time being pregnant might as well enjoy it lol

    @excitedmama how the hell do we keep losing these planes is right?!

    Another officer was shot and killed yesterday- that brings the total since last week to four I think, I'm seriously hating my husbands job lately and just wishing he could stay home with me forever....one of the guys he works with was attacked from behind the other night, knocked out cold before he even saw it coming, my husband keeps saying I shouldn't worry because he knows how to protect himself but after that and the shootings in NYC well how does one protect themselves when they are attacked from behind....anyway there's my rant for the day

    DS's usually awesome schedule has come to a chaotic tail spin with the holidays (combined with no more pacifier). No nap at all yesterday. We were able to do bedtime at 7:30, but he woke up from a nightmare at 9. Luckily some back rubs got him back to sleep. Then he was up at 5:30am. Boo. We were able to get another hour of semi-interrupted but still semi-quiet time. Then I was too hungry anyway so the two of us got up. DH is still asleep...

    Ended up buying an amazing new mattress at a crazy boxing week sale (72.5% off!) yesterday. Delivery is Jan 6. I can't wait.

    Like many PPers, I have three weeks to go (or more if she comes late). I don't know how I'm going to last. I am so uncomfortable all the time.

    Good morning ladies. Sitting here in the glow of our Christmas tree which I will be packing up today. My DD4 told me she doesn't want to take it down, it's just so pretty. We get a real tree and I like to stick it on the front porch for a couple days before putting it at the side of the road. On my own today with DD4 and DS3. H is a liquor salesman and this is a very busy time of year for him. :( Hope everyone has a good day!

    I would say it's totally up to you, but you may want to look nice just in case. You don't want to just take the option away before you even get there because what happens if you change your mind at the last minute? When I do newborns I like your do family shots as well, but I wouldn't force anyone.

    I was so excited a couple months ago that I had won a $50 gift certificate for a photographer in town that I was saving to use for newborn pics.  I just got a notification on fb yesterday that she has updated her prices for 2015.  She has now decided to do a $215 flat fee for ALL sessions and you get the cd of images to print as you wish or can order prints through her.  Ugh!  She used to charge a $50 session fee and then whatever prints you wanted to buy.  My $50 gc is going to be useless to me up against a $215 session fee, especially in my current situation.  :(

    I think I'll make waffles for breakfast.

    Good morning ladies! Hope everyone has a wonderful, relaxing Sunday.

    I'm thinking homemade cinnemon rolls for breakfast! But I suppose that would mean me getting out of bed.

    If it makes you feel any better, you probably would have spent that much on session plus prints anyway. I pretty much expect at least a $200 investment out of my clients. Won't necessarily happen, and I'm not a pushy sales person, but it usually does. $215 is actually not bad for newborns. Sorry though, I know your funds are tight now

    Good morning ladies. DS and I are up playibg blocks/laying on the couch. Dh is still asleep, but I'll be waking him up soon bc I need to shower and get ready to leave for my wax appt. I may try to do some returns while im out. Take advantage of some kid free time!

    Ugh. I'm wondering when this nesting instinct will kick in. I can't remember when it happened with DS1, but I'm getting close to the point where my water broke with him (37w4d) and feeling nothing but cranky and tired as shit., so I guess I'm over thinking it all at this point.

    Bc besides being 2cm dilated and "thin" according to my OB last week and having my share of irregular contractions, this baby isnt giving me much sign that he wants to come yet. He seems comfy in there.

    I keep making a mental list of all the foods I want to eat when I have this baby and don't have GD anymore.


    So far all I have is IHOP, bread pudding and bananas foster.  
    Hmmm I have the same thoughts except that mine involved tuna tartare. Red wine. And then in another meal anything yummy plus ice cold beer.

    i love you, my little mooncake mahal kita

    Good morning! Glad I'm not alone with not being able to sleep....this heartburn is killing me! I only had a super mild case at the very end of my pregnancy with DD, so this is all new to me. But I realized last night that I had exactly 2 weeks till my RCS! I'm so excited and nervous and worried and so many other emotions right now!

    @papapalie‌....like others have said, it's up to you. I remember when I got mine done with DD, the photographer just took photos of my hands...like DD squeezing my finger, etc.

    Such a bad sleep last night. I was up from 3:30-6:30. Finally fell back asleep but up again at 7:30. It wouldn't be so bad, but I also feel a bit off today. Quite nauseous. If I start throwing up I won't be happy!
