Re: Wednesday randoms
My baby was breech up until a few weeks ago. My mw checked on a Monday with an ultrasound. I had tons of movement, and contractions on Tuesday. On Wednesday I went and saw my mfm, got another ultrasound and he had flipped! My belly felt very tender and sore from the day before, so I'm assuming that's when he decided to flip.
I can't imagine what it would feel like actually getting the version done. My mw pressed on my belly to check size and positioning and THAT was uncomfortable!
Good luck! Lots of T&P!
@txultrarunner
It's normal to be terrified to be alone with the baby, or it was for me. I know you can do it though, just breathe and when your honey gets home take a minute for yourself!
@yamrwhite
You can come Work on my house after you finish @britb618! Anything to help a fellow TFC expel some nesting energy ya'know! ;p
At least I can take a nap this afternoon.
We have dinner reservations tonight at a nice, new steakhouse. We have gone out to a nice dinner for NYE for the past 5 years or so, but this might be the last for obvious reasons. I made these reservations 6 weeks ago. I am trying to decide whether I want a juicy steak or prime rib...
Watch me go into labor this afternoon and not even get to go to dinner.
@LaBellaVida count on another for a sandwich
@babystandish I totally have your cold
@tkr7c9 I also had a failed version. Don't be too hard on yourself. The bruising goes a away in a few days.
@TXUltraRunner totally normal to be nervous but you will do great! Agree with pp when your husband gets home hand him the baby and take a few minutes to yourself.
DS went to bed at 10 last night and decided 6am was a good time to wake. If I slept through the night that would normally be fine but I'm tired and have a nasty cold. I also have a feeling that DS will refuse nap time today
Hope every one has a great New Year's Eve!!
@YaMrWhite you can definitely come to my house and nest
No sleep = grumpy me. I have an appointment at 11 and after I'm hoping to pick up some last minute things we didn't get at the shower but I think we still "need." That trip depends on if I feel nice enough to deal with crowds.
Other than that I'm going to try and motivate myself to organize the nursery...we'll see how that goes.
On a happy note my husband's friend took the stray that my neighbor befriended, and she is doing great! I'm so happy! I was really worried that we would have to adopt her because we already have 5. My neighbor was not a cat person but somehow this little one managed to get into his heart and after he passed she was so lost. I feel kind of like a parole officer checking in with him about her though lol. She was with us for a long time and I still feel an obligation to my neighbor (whom I've known for a good portion of my life) to keep her safe. My picture update should be coming soon
Went to my last hockey game pre LO last night & it wasn't even for my team. Game went into a shoot out so I was out extra late. Had a super delicious, off the frame turkey sandwich while there.
Didnt sleep much & I feel an afternoon nap is in the cards later.
37 week appointment in a little bit. Curious to see what the dr says.
Looking forward to my NYE dinner tonight with my girl friend. 3 courses that will end with a bacon cinnamon roll. My SO is genius for coming up with that one! One of the perks of having a SO who is a chef.
@Mrs_Bennett good luck!!!
Have a great day everyone!!!
@mrs_bennett - Good luck!
@txultrarunner - You'll do great!!
@yamrwhite - you're welcome to come to my house as well. I will feed you!
@LuckyPenny1231 - Happy Anniversary!!
Had evil fantasies yesterday about going into labor during school hours and calling the school office to tell the secretary to tell her "boyfriend" to get his ass to the hospital because his baby was on the way. I have had the school office's number posted as the one I was supposed to call since way back when he wrote it down for me when I was pregnant with the boys.
Feeling down about NYE, trying to remind myself that I have two boys to kiss at midnight (if they're still awake). He asked me what I was doing tonight. Still makes me sick to the stomach to think he might decide to go visit her tonight (though he didn't mention as such when I said "what are you doing?")
I've been sick for a week now and my sinuses are so congested that my molars hurt and I about coughed up a lung yesterday at my u/s because my throat got dry laying there.
I'm having a great morning today. Pain is surprisingly manageable. I don't remember feeling this good after my CS with my daughter.
I'm going to take myself for a walk to get more ice water and check to see if I can snatch my boy up from the nursery. The pediatrician told me this morning he has a little jaundice. I'm hoping it's nothing that will keep him from coming home tomorrow. I have my curtains opened so I'm hoping we can sit by my window and soak up some sunlight.
In other news, I still have yet to pack the ever so important hospital bag. I figure if I stop procrastinating and actually gather stuff that this LO won't arrive for another two weeks. However, if I don't pack anything maybe it will make an unexpected arrival before my due date (jan. 6th) am I pushing my luck? Maybe? But I figure if I start having contractions they will come on slow enough that I will have time to throw some shit in a bag lol.
Hopefully the 19th is available for you!
Do you mind me asking, are you going to let your STBX into the room while you deliver?
And wait. ...I knew he was with a secretary, but the kids school secretary!? Is this right, or am I missing something? I thought he was with a secretary from his work!
You see all those cute bags filled with everything under the sun, because DUH, I would totally want to have everything with me just in case?
I didn't open them. Once I saw how much I was bleeding, there was no way I was putting on my cute pajamas or clothes I brought. I used their mesh undies and huge pads, and had to wear their non-skid socks due to protocol. The only things I used were my own toiletries because theirs are terrible. Oh, and my own pillow was magical. But that's pretty much it, other than obviously a going home outfit for baby and I. So, to those still waiting, don't over-think it!
He is a teacher. The secretary is the secretary at the school he works at (that is an hour away from where we live). Thankfully NOT the school my kids would attend, but it is the school her kids attend.

@babystandish, I don't use cloth diapers, but a boy in the nursery at church had a really thin liner in his diaper (almost like a dryer sheet), and it did a good job of keeping his poop from getting on the diaper. I just dumped the liner + poop in the trash. Maybe that's what it's for. He was about 15 months and eating solids, so idk how well it would work with newborn poop.

Now if I could just find my wine purse... I'm not that big into hard liquor anymore, but I'd take a margarita! Who was it who had a margarita maker in here???
Poor DH loves NYE and I just could not care less about it, especially this year (pregnant, miserable, no child care with MIL gone... the list goes on). We got some movies from redbox and I said we could order takeout wings (his favorite). I mentioned that I don't care if I stay up until 12. He said he was going to make a fire in the fire pit and sit out in the back yard and drink some beer by himself to ring in the new year... I feel bad enough for him I may try to stay up!
So - I was getting ready this morning. I found like 8 Grey hairs on my head! I'm 30. I'm too young for Grey hair. I of course pull them every time I find one.
