Re: Monday Randoms
I'm baking homemade banana nut bread for breakfast, and it smells so yummy! I'm hungryyyy....
The birth announcement thread makes me jealous.
LO has been a hiccup monster all morning.
DH is off on vacation again this week. Debating now between doing nothing today and doing something...such a difficult choice...
@rayna912 FX that your husbands interview goes well today!
@MusicFanatic we went through a bath-hating time as well. It sucked then and seemed like she would never get over it, but it didn't last too long and she loves them now! It's hard to coax her out
BFP #1: 4/2/12 -- DD born 12/15/12. BFP #2: 4/1/14 -- CP. BFP #3: 4/28/14 -- EDD 1/10/15
Jan 15 NOV siggy challenge:
@MusicFanatic - I'm sorry Zoe is not digging the baths. Hopefully that'll change in a few days/weeks/months. I can only imagine how hard it is to bathe an infant that doesn't want to be there in the first place.
@Beckydewell - I feel you on the fear of a 42 week baby. I'm a FTM so I know it's more likely that he'll come "late" but my mom never went into labor with me and I was a day shy of 4 weeks late. I'm terrified and I think it may be affecting me negatively too...
@rayna912 - That sucks about your hubby's job. I'm glad he has an interview today though! FX that he gets it!
I supposedly have 3 days left...my stupid ticker is a lying liar. I'm trying to tempt fate by leaving my hospital bag and the diaper bag at home and scheduling interviews way into the future.
Right now this little one is doing something really weird in my belly and stretching it in a painful way and making me look really pointy/lopsided and making it hard to breathe...time to come out now little buddy!
My condolences to you and your family @9513
Good luck to all of you having babies in the next day!! I look forward to reading the birth announcements and stories!!
BFP #2: EDD 9/3/13~~Slow HB at 1st U/S~~MMC -Loss on 2/13/13
@soon2bejp I feel you on the bp. I've had a lot more swelling lately and I'm afraid my bp's going to just keep going up.
@elleswarth Good luck today! I hope they let you stay!
@rayna912 that's really shitty about your husband's job, glad he's got an interview and good luck to him!
I have a growth ultrasound and then my 36 week appointment isn't until Friday. I'll be nearly 37 weeks but whatever. I tried doing my own fundal height last night but I don't think I did it right. I got 38+. So either my baby's had a big growth spurt, or I'm swollen all over, or I just did it wrong haha.
My swelling has gotten worse, I hope my bp doesn't decide to go all crazy after it's been so good (and by so good, I mean borderline lol)
In normal, true fashion of a pregnant woman less than a week from the EDD, I am tired, cranky, not sleeping well, nauseated, and hurting all over. No big deal. We all know, or will know, exactly how that feels. It has made me comically negative, apparently. FI and I were watching Property Brothers last night and I guess I was borderline ranting about two of the families we watched on there and he found it hilarious. In my defense, the one wife wanted to buy this foreclosure house that had MAJOR foundational damage and then got all upset when a major portion of the renovation money was spent on fixing the foundation that was about ready to collapse in! I don't even know what I said but he started cracking up.
In other news, babies! They're starting to come pretty quick now! Love all the photos!

@9513 I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.
I'm waiting for my OB to call back, but H and I just ran around the house packing a bag and getting stuff together just in case... I'll update if there is any news. Thanks for the support!
I think it's a bad idea to try to potty train him right before the baby comes because he'll probably regress, but if he keeps telling me when he has to go, I'll let him. We'll see!
I hate all the yearly exams too, they just all suck.

I'm finding it incredibly hard to be patient right now. Luckily work is providing some distraction from my upcoming due date.
I just wanna hold my squish!! Cue pouty face.
Don't sulk yet! I've been at 3 cm dilated and 60% effaced for almost a month. I'm due 1/4 and I have a feeling I'll be pregnant until then.
I want to avoid an induction at all cost. I knew it was likely to happen, but she confirmed it today.
I also wanted no interventions and the fact that she wants to start stripping my membranes was kinda hard to deal with. I'm not ready to have a new born. As much as I'm getting uncomfortable I could be pregnant for another month or two. This is my last pregnancy and it's coming to an end too quickly. I'm gonna miss being pregnant, and feeling my baby move inside. I'm gonna miss my big pregnant belly, and the excitement of having a new born. I'm scared of how much my life is going to change having an 18 month old and a new born to deal with along with my older kids. I feel like I've robbed Owen and all the attention I could have given him, just like I was able to give to his older brothers. He doesn't understand how his life is going to change and that makes me sad.
Anyway, I had a moment of tears in the office, and on my way home. ... Then again in my bathroom as my H came in to ask me what was wrong. Sigh- i'll be OK. I know I will, and I'm excited to have my baby. ... I'm just not ready, and perhaps I won't ever be ready but he's coming and it may be sooner then I thought which is a little scary for me.
Anyway, I had a cervix check. Still closed and she thinks he's high up because she couldn't even feel him. That's all totally normal though and I figured that would be the case. She thinks he may have flipped again, so I'll find out on Wednesday at my mfm. If he's flipped again, there are more things to talk about next week.
We are de-Christmas-ing today and I'm kind of bummed. I love all the Christmas decorations, but I would rather get it all put away now than wait until we have a NB.
