I slept 11 hours last night and I'm still not going to do anything productive today. I will be in bed in my jammies watching Netflix until hubby gets home to take me for food.
1. The toddler has been sleeping in the bottom of a PnP for the last 2 months.
-We bought him a new crib in October that converts later, and moved his to our room for the baby. But, b/c I'm lazy, and we lost a couple of screws, it took until this week to get his put together. My poor kid was so confused the other day when I put him down for a nap.
2. I hid SO's computer mouse until he gets his "to do" list done.
-I'm tired of asking. I warned him I would do this 10 days ago, and he agreed to it happening if he didn't get his ass in gear. Then I ran to the store for diapers and a few other things. By the time I got back, 2/3 of his crap was finally done. Magic! Yes, I'm mean.
I just want my body to make up its dang mind already. I'm due on Wednesday, but as a FTM, I am prepared to go late. Last night, though, I went through about 4 hours of solid, steady contractions at about 8 minutes apart. I got down to four minutes apart, for about 3 contractions, and then--NOTHING. None all through the night, and I've only had two today. I am ok waiting, but I don't look forward to going through this nightly, or even every other night. Baby either needs to get here, or my body just needs to chill out.
I asked DH to watch DD for a bit so I could go clean up our room and do laundry. But instead put my feet up and gave myself a manicure. Also DD has had way too much screen time today. But I DGAF because I can barely move today. I Minnie.
I unashamedly go on deleting sprees on Facebook. Because it's Facebook not real life. But my latest victim was my own cousin. She got the hammer because as soon as I got married she was obsessed with getting married and gave her then (cheating) boyfriend an ultimatum to marry her or get dumped. So they got married in a week. Then as soon as I got pregnant she became obsessed with getting pregnant and started trying. Then she got pregnant with her now (cheating) husband and named their son the name we were considering for our son. Every time I post a picture she posts one identical to it, same thing with statuses. And all I can think about is all the times she's personally told me about how much she hates him and how he's threatened to divorce her already if he doesn't get to do what he wants but then she fakes it for everyone else and makes them think they have this perfect marriage with a perfect life and a perfect little family. It makes me GAG.
Also now that we are finally at our birth month I must confess I am not mentally prepared to handle every new thread that will be coming complaining about being late

This! I'm already feeling inundated with them and we are at Jan 1.

Can we just make a thread for 40+ weekers like the previous birth months did? It might help with keeping the board clean just like the labor and delivery thread has been pretty helpful? @Monilee1017 and @claireloSC
BIL's fiancée split with him, suddenly, on Tuesday. He's heartbroken. I'm over-the-moon elated because it means I no longer feel obligated to give her a place to live until the wedding. I feel like a terrible person but honestly that's such a huge weight off of my mind AND it means we can start working on the basement updates that we were going to put off until she moved out since her "room" would've been in the basement. New playroom, here we come!
Today I went to the store and bought Klondike bars, ice cream with a cookie butter core, frozen pizza, chicken tenders, and spaghetti and pigged out. I haven't cooked a meal in forever and I'm okay with that.
Everyone is going on and on about losing weight and getting back into shape now that it's a new year and whining about putting on a couple pounds over the holidays and I'm just over here like
I have to agree with you @JmadC, while I do worry about my weight and how difficult it may be to loose it when I'm ready, right now I'm comfortable in the fact that I am pregnant and making a human and I'm not going to feel bad about it. I also am having a c-section so I have absolutely no plan on stressing about this until I have recovered. This makes me so excited because I know I will not have to deal with all the New Years resolutioners at the gym these next few months. By the time I get back to the gym, the gym should be back to normal!
MIL has been calling and texting both hubs and myself everyday since Christmas Eve asking when she can come out. We've happily ignored her. I haven't even told my kids that it's baby week in fear of them answering the phone and spilling the beans.
My brother is coming to town this week with his wife (I've seen 3 times in their 5 year marriage) and 2 kids. My mother decided to invite them all to visit me at the hospital once I'm in my room after my section on Thursday without saying anything to me. I have ZERO relationship with these people. Why would I want them there before my own children?!?! She is dead to me now too.

Just for once can't someone follow my plan?!
